Chapter 27

"Well, that's good news! Far better than what we have."

"Well, the others and I are going to get a move on so I'll see you later."

After I spoke to my mother on the phone, I stared at my cellphone for a long time. It seemed as if I was expecting every inch of my phone, but I wasn't/ Instead I was comtemplating, comtemplating a serious decision. Claire had a phone, I thought so why not just call her? Without thinking, I dialed the Claire's number. I had to see if she was alive. I knew she would be, but I just wanted to make sure rather than run on hope. 

The phone dialed Claire's number loudly in my ear as I waited quietly. At first, there was no answer so I tried again. The second time I heard a creaky voice on the other line.

"Who are you calling?" Damien asked, but I just waved him off ignoring him.

"Hello?" Claire said.

"Hey, it's Mitri. How are you?"

"Who are you on the phone with, Mitri?" Damien asked, but I just waved him off and ignored him.

Claire laughed, "I've been better."

When I was about to ask if she reached the Forbidden Town, Damien crept up behind me and stole my phone. I tried to get it back, but Damien was spinning out of my reach every time I tried to grab it.

*Damien's PoV*

"Hello?"

"Hello?" A woman's voice said.

"Listen, I don't know who is on the phone nor do I care, but Mitri doesn't have time to talk. We are doing something important at the moment so it will have to wait."

"Oh, I see-" The woman said bursting  into tears.

My ears twitched slightly at the sound of her sobs when I realized it was Claire on the other line. Quickly wishing I didn't speak to her in such a rude manner, I got the feeling she was going to hang up.

"Wait, don't hang up, Claire!"

"Why?" Claire asked.

"I'm sorry. I thought you were someone else! Just please don't hang up."

After hearing her breathing on the other line for several moments, I knew she wasn't going to hang up.

"Claire, I'm so happy your're alright. Where are you? I've been looking everywhere for you."

"Yes, I'm alive." She said bitterly.

"Claire please come back," I begged, "Please come home. Whatever I did, please forgive me."

"I can't." She said as her voice was begininning to crack.

My own voice was beginning to crack and I could not control my own tears. I began to hoid myself for suport as if my legs were going to give out.

"Why?!"

"I just can't."

"Claire, please don't do this to me! We can talk about it. I know I've been an ass, but please don't leave me. I need you. I'll do anything for you."

"Anything?"

I nodded even though she couldn't see me.

"Then don't look for me and don't call me. I can't do this anymore."

" I can't do that, Claire. I'm in love with-"

As I begged and began to tell her I loved her, the line went dead. She hung up on me. I frantically called back only to get her voicemail so I called again. This time it said her phone was out of service. No no no! Why did this just happen, I thought as I sunk to the ground pleading at the sky. Mitri patted my shoulders.
