"letoclo jorden" come on. "letoclo magnolia" no. "letoclo Alice" tears are coming to my eyes now. stop clarity don't cry your not a baby your 7 years old for crying out loud! "letoclo Christofer" please. "yes" I hear in my head. "Chris!" I jump on the connection pulling it in. "Clair?" he says.chris is the only one who father allowed me to see in my years living in the crystal lake. jorden didn't know. "thank god Clair jorden's been acting weird. where are you?" "Someone put a confn annish on me" "Clair you know I don't know what you mean when you say those warlocks words" I sigh "it pretty much means come appear"  "ok can you see anything?" " I'm in a dark room there's-there's..." I'm crying now. I try to act all tough but really I'm just a normal 7-year-old girl "a chair with silver cuffs on the arms. am I going to die, Chris!!!" "no silly goose you're going to be perfectly fine.do you have any idea where you are?" he asks in a calm and collected way that makes me want to stab him. "I don't know!" my voice drops to a whisper "I'm scared Chris. I want to get out of here"  "shhh I know little goose it's ok" "are you going to leave?" "Not until you tell me to" his voice is reassuring knowing he's there "Chris will you sing me a song like from when I was a baby?" I feel his hesitation then he says "okay" he starts humming a melody in my head "Oh, her eyes, her eyes Make the stars look like they're not shinin' Her hair, her hair falls perfectly without her tryin' She's so beautiful And I tell her every day 

Yeah, I know, I know when I compliment her she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me "Do I look okay?"
I say When I see your face there's not a thing that I would change 'cause you're amazing just the way you are and when you smile the whole world stops and stares for a while'Cause girl you're amazing just the way you are..." he continues to sing the mortal song his sweet voice the siren voice I love so much to hear. I hum along with him. "oh you know you know you know I'd never ask you to change if perfect's what your searching for then just stay the same." he stops abruptly "gotta go jorden's calling bye" I don't even have time to say goodbye before he leaves and my mind feels so silent. with Chris gone I let the fear enclose me and the tears roll down my cheek. "miss. fey your father will see you now" "I don't want to see him!" I scream at the woman. the woman comes over to me and grabs my arms "no-no! I don't want to! let me go!!"  but she doesn't "ulhar ixen" I mutter under my breath. the spots where the woman was holding me explode with blue flames burning her hands black with welts and scabs.she releases me screaming out in pain I put my hands on my hips and tilt my head to the side.  "sorry, not sorry you should know what you were doing when you messed with me" shes crying on the floor I walk over to her and kick her in the gut "I'm not someone to be messed with and certainly not someone to be told what to do!" she curls in on herself.  I lean down and whisper "I'm your problem now!" she tries to talk but when she opens her mouth she coughs blood splattering on my shoes "now look what you did! you ruined my shoes!" "morfian will kill you if you kill me" I smirk a thing that's all my brother "oh really he hasn't intervened yet.this is probably part of his tests anyway. he told you not to take no for an answer didn't he?" she nods "Then I apologize for this" I always hate this part the part where I watch the light drain from there eyes but they're not really there just tests. "I'm so sorry" I whisper before grabbing her head and twisting it to the side I hear the crack and watch as the woman slowly disappears from sight. not a thing that you would change? Chris if you knew me better you would.
