Clarissa's Pov

"Wake up Clarissa! You've got a big day today! Now get up come on" Said Hanna. The really annoying one. 

"But I want to sleep," I told her and flipped onto my other side. I am not in the mood to meet this James guy because I just want to get out of here and be by Andy's side and have everything back to normal again. That's literally all that I am asking for. 

"No, You have to get up now. Pleasee, I don't want to get in trouble. They want you down there as quickly as possible." 

I turn my head and look at her through my messy hair. "If I say I'll be down in a minute will you leave?" I ask her in the nicest way possible. 

"Sounds good to me. But hurry though." 

"Yea yea yea I know," I mumbled as I threw the sheets from off of me. My feet touch the cold wood floor but it didn't phase me. I walked over to the mirror and grabbed my brush. My hair was really knotted up. I brushed my hair until there were no tugs when I went through it with the brush. I took one good look at myself in the mirror and the most scary realization hit me. How was I suppose to escape? I'm only 18 still and some big changes have happened to my life but I'm still the same person, just more advanced. I still think the same way so how the hell am I suppose to get us out of this mess? Now that's what I call a difficult question. 

I grabbed some decent clothes out of the dresser and slipped them on. I'm not in the 'dress to impress' mood so I'll be ok with looking like trash. 

"What are you wearing?!" someone shrieked as I walked down the stairs. I looked at everyone with a confused look. "you need to be wearing something nicer than that!" with that I was being pushed back upstairs by Hanna.

She started to look through my closet and grunted. "You have no good clothes in here."

"Well I haven't really had the time to go to the mall and shop soo," I replied. She does know that the clothes in that closet are not even mine though right?

"Stop being a smart ass. Come with me. I believe some of my stuff might fit you," I followed her down the hall until we arrived to her room. When she opened the door there was a black fuzzy rug in the middle of her floor. I liked it. She started furiously ripping through all of the clothes in her closet until she picked out a lace shirt with leather pants. "Try these on,"

"Will do," I said as I awkwardly started to take off my clothes as she kept looking to find another outfit. It took a few tugs to get the leather pants over my butt but other than that they were nice. When I put the shirt on it showed a lot of my cleavage. "Uh could I possibly have a different shirt," 

She looked back at me and her eyes got huge. "Girl no, you need to wear that. James will be very pleased with you," She said as she came over to me and started fixing my hair.

"So what exactly happens if he doesn't 'like me'?" I asked curiously.

"Well, I don't really know. Everyone that has gone through this process has not made it this far. You are the first one that has been a success so you are the first one that he gets to meet. Lucky you!" 

"I wouldn't really call that lucky but ok." The rest of the conversation just ended in silence. What am I getting dragged into?

*****

"Get ready Clarissa, he is waiting just beyond those doors. First impressions are very important." 

"Thats good to know," I said as I slowly pushed open the doors. To wipe off the nervousness I felt all over my body I put my resting bitch face on and thought of something that will get me in a really pissy mood. I kept my eyes on the ground until I stopped walking. I took my eyes off the ground and looked up at James. I just have to words to say. Holy, fuck. He was so attractive. His eyes were an awesome shade of red and he had nice brown hair. 

"Hello Clarissa. It is such a pleasure to finally meet you. I've heard a lot of things about you." His voice sent shivers down my spine. He sounded very powerful and in control. 

"Uh nice to meet you too?" I made that sound to much like a question. I'm so screwed. 

"Well then, lets carry on with the process. I am going to put you through a series of tests and see how you react." Out of no where, he charged at me. I was caught off guard and he slammed me into the ground. My whole body went numb for a quick second. " You are going to have to work on your reflexes. You never know when someone or something will come charging at you." 

This time when he came at me I dodged him and grabbed onto his arm in the process. To get back at him I flipped him so he would feel the same pain that I felt. 

"You catch on quickly," He said. "Ok so now that you are more aware, the next test I am going to be playing some mind tricks on you. Lets begin," He stared intensively  into my eyes. "Who's Andy? He seems to mean a lot to you?" 

"What are you talking about?" I said as calmly as possible. They can't know that I remember everything. He was still gathering information from my mind I could tell. It made me so mad, talk about invasion of privacy. I looked right back at him and managed to get inside of his head. I saw a lot of disturbing things. Stuff that I didn't want to see and I saw him torturing people. Vampires and humans. Still focusing in on his mind I sent him a little mental message that said "You are not the only one who can do that," 

"Very Impressive Clarissa. You got into my head. Do you know how difficult that is?" He asked me. 

"Well it wasn't a challenge to me," I said back. If he thinks he's so cocky I can brag about myself too. 

"Hm. Lets see how you respond to this." He stared at me once more and a huge burst of pain exploded into my head. What was he doing? How was he doing it. I clutched onto my head and cried out in pain. It felt like I smashed my head against concrete or even worse. 

"Stop!" I screamed. He just continued to inflict pain on me. "Stop" I screamed once more. When he did not stop I stared right at him and screamed and felt all the anger I had inside leave my body and crash into his. He fell to the ground clutching his head this time. I walked up to him and grabbed his arm. Feeling the heat coming to my fingertips I burnt the crap out of his arm. The fact that I could burn someone by just touching really scares the shit out of me but right now I just want to hurt him. 

"Enough," He yelled as I got grabbed by vampires that were sitting in the room. "I have to admit I deserved that. Clarissa, that was a fantastic job that you just did. You completed the first half of the test"
