In The End [Claire]

[General Admin]

Sylar couldn’t believe that his future self would force him to take Empathic Mimicry from him, but he did anyway. He was forced to and now he was sitting in Costa Verde inside another man’s body. He didn’t really know whose body he was in, but he had to find his brother and he had to kick his future self ass. No one was supposed to do that to Sylar. That was just wrong and odd.

The villain was deep into thought when someone started to talk him. “Hey Osborne, why don’t you get us some coffee?” asked a person in front of him. Sylar didn’t reply at first as the man in front of him tapped him on the shoulder. “Tony, you gonna get us some drinks?” Sylar came back to reality as he noticed that they were referring to him as Tony Osborne. Lovely.

Sylar looked at the F.B.I agents that were standing in front of him. He gave a smile, “Sure, what would you like?” The two F.B.I agents told him what they wanted. He nodded and headed to the Starbucks. He looked around wondering if his fellow villains were still in Costa Verde after what Osborne did to him taking him into level five. Sylar was impressed by Osborne to even get him. However, he was really pissed that his future self had to stick him in the body of Osborne. Sylar wondered if he had his same powers while in this body.

He closes his eyes for a minute and opens his eyes suddenly. He shakes his head. He decides to activate his ability that Osborne had absorbed. This was going to be fun. He thought to himself. He slowly walked towards the Starbucks scanning the area for potential victims. None looked like they had special abilities, which disappointed Sylar. He decided that he would find some later. He entered the same exact Starbucks that was once terrorized by his fellow villains and himself.

He bit his lower lip and went to the cash register ordering what those two F.B.I agents wanted and ordered something he wanted. He then paid it with Osborne’s credit card and walked away from the register near the area where the drinks are placed when they are finished. He folded his arms and waited for the drinks to be ready.

Claire didn't know why, but for some reason she was desperate for a coffee. She had been out for a walk, well actually she had gone to visit Sam, but he hadn't been in when she knocked on the door. Which was kind of unusual for him really, he was nearly always in. Or at least, if he wasn't in, his sister usually, but there was no reply, so she shrugged her shoulders, maybe they'd gone out for some sibling time and a meal.

Which was totally fine by Claire. Carla was a lovely girl, and one day she'd be her sister in law, it was a nice thought to think that. She knew this because even though Sam hadn't proposed to her yet, her dad Noah had told her about that painting. She had decided she wasn't going to tell Sam about it, she didn't want to pressure him into proposing. If he was going to do it, she wanted him to do it off his own back, not because her dad had seen some stupid painting of them together.

After all what was to say it was actually them anyway? Who could really paint the future on anybody? Then she laughed, the amount of people she knew with weird abilities, really it shouldn't be that much of a surprise that someone out there could paint the future.

Turning the corner and seeing Starbucks there, she just had to go in for a coffee. She needed a drink, and it was still quite a walk until she got back to her own house. When she opened the door, she saw Tony there. Not as if it had been a long time since they'd met up in New York, but she had missed just the same. Seeing him standing by the counter, she couldn't help but do what she did. She crept up behind him slowly, and then reached up put her hands over his eyes and shouted;

"Guess who?!" and waited on a response and she began to giggle slightly waiting on his reply.

[General Admin]

Sylar was waiting impatiently, for his coffee. He hated when these people took forever to make his coffee. He hated that they had to make it prefect. Maybe next time he should just go to McDonald’s and gets an Ice Coffee. That would get his caffeine fix for him. He was just staring at the people making his coffee, wondering if they had powers or not. He had killed the girl that was the cashier when he was here a few days ago.

The villain turned his head away from the employees making his coffee. He just looked outside, not paying much attention as someone covered his eyes. He was about to kill someone. He swore, no one ever did that to him. He was Sylar, the villain. However, he was stuck in an F.B.I agent’s body. He heard the person behind him say “Guess who” He heard the familiar voice.

“Claire” He said a bit annoying as he quickly turned around and narrowed his eyes at her “What do you want” He spat.
Sylar then closed his eyes as for some reason, Osborne was now communicating with him.

Don’t you dare hurt her again...

If I did hurt her, she would just blame you, I activated my ability, that you absorbed and after I get out of this body, you will be just like me and Peter, the hunger will soon consume you and Claire will never forgive you.

Sylar then open his eyes and quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, Claire, I didn’t mean to be like that, for some reason, after I told you that I had Sylar’s ability…the ability triggered something and I’m trying my best to control it” He said with a panic. Yes, Sylar was pretending to be in a panic mood.

[clairebear]

Claire startled and jumped back a bit from Tony when he spat at her. She was a little shocked, it was the first time Tony had spoken to her like that and she began to wonder why. Maybe he had a bad day at work or something.

"What's wrong with you Tony?" she asked a little sadly. She remembered the other day when she saw him and he told her about absorbing Sylar's powers, she really hoped this wasn't the start of the hunger thing Sylar has.

Then she watched as he closed his eyes and went silent for a few moments, Claire watched on mystified, trying to figure out what the hell was wrong with Tony. Then he began to talk to her again starting with an apology. She looked at him rather shifty eyes though, not sure what she was expecting from him next.

"Right, I see" Claire began, still unsure of what was happening to Tony, he didn't seem his usual self that was for sure. "That's a little worrying, are you sure you're going to be alright?" she asked him with a worried expression on her face.

[General Admin]

“I don’t know Claire, I mean there has to be a way to stop, the hunger, right?” asked Sylar looking at Claire. He knew she wouldn’t understand, but he had to act nice to her. This man’s body that he was friends with her or something. He couldn’t put a finger on it, but he knew he had to be normal like this person, until she left.

He was unsure what to do, but he would just play it nice. It was awkward for him to play nice, but it was something for him to do right? He was in a Heroes body and his future self was doing something and he needed to find a way to confront his future self. There had to be a way to get Peter and them to come and get them.

He frowned and sighed, “You have any suggestions, I mean I had it for a while and I could understand how things work, but I didn’t expect to get the hunger” Sylar said biting his lower lip, “You would think, your uncle and his friends would be after me, I mean I took one of the leaders, I don’t want to be like them, Claire…” He said wandering if he was even making any sense.

[clairebear]

"Well of course there has to be Tony" Claire said a little defiantly, "I am not having you go like Sylar and Peter, they're horrific together and I need my confidante" Claire said still defiantly and gave him a smile.

Claire was actually very worried for her friend Tony. If this hunger was starting in him, he would become the one thing he despised the most, if it was true, they had to stop it and they had to stop sooner than later.

One foot wrong Claire thought, just one foot wrong and she'd have to take Tony to her dad to sort out even though she'd hate to do it. But she shouldn't worry, they would sort this some how they would sort it.

"I don't know Tony, I don't know anything about the hunger, but hopefully you will be fine, and I wouldn't worry about Peter and his friends, we can sort them. You won't turn like them, I wont let it happen" Claire said defiantly, as she put her hand on his arm. It would seem he was getting himself into a panic, and she hoped that it wouldn't come to what he was thinking.

[General Admin]

Be like them? Sylar laughed in his head. He was one of them. He just listened to his niece speak about it. He always let the hungry consume him. He was going to do it, right in front of her…or maybe he should say something. He tilted his head and shook his head, “Hopefully, I won’t get like them”

Sylar closed his eyes as the time froze in the Starbucks. He froze Claire also as he killed everyone (expect Claire) in the Starbucks. There were only four people. He unfroze everyone and opened his eyes. He looked around and gave Claire a panic look. The hunger had finally taken over, Osborne’s body.

He was covered in blood and looked at Claire, “I’m sorry…” He said as he looked around the room to what he had done. “Is Noah in town?” He asked “Or should I go see Angela?” He asked not sure if he was making any sense.

[clairebear]

"You wont get like them" Claire said defiantly again, she knew Tony, she knew him better than Peter and Sylar, and Tony would not get like that, she knew it in her heart.

When Sylar as Tony froze time, Claire was unaware of it, of course, but when he unfroze time and she saw the state of Tony and looked around to see the mess, she couldn't believe it. It would have appeared the hunger had got to Tony right in front of her.

It couldn't be right. Tony just wouldn't do that. He wouldn't. Something was wrong, something was very wrong.

"Tony what the hell is wrong with you? It's not the hunger, you wouldn't let it get to you like this, I know you wouldn't" she said in a panic, she wondered why he hadn't tried to kill her. She didn't know who he should see about his current situation. She didn't like Angela though, that much was for sure. There was just something about the woman.

"My dad, Noah, you should see him" she said, looking at him with disdain, and it was hurting her, because she just knew Tony wouldn't do that. It was almost as if she was looking at Tony but had the actions and personality of Sylar.

[General Admin]

Sylar was good at watching facial expressions of other people and it would seem that Claire was unsure of him. Maybe he should come clean about this. He knew she would probably get pissed at him, but it didn’t matter. He was trying not to do as much damage to Tony as he could. He just made the hungry release…that was all. Osborne was a smart man and probably wouldn’t let it consume, it would seem to Sylar.

“Well, I’m not Tony” He said rolling his eyes, “It’s me Sylar, your uncle” He said sarcastically “And I was happy in level five unless, my future self sent me to this body…which I don’t understand” He muttered as he bit his lower lip.

“So you think, I should see Noah? You know your father would hurt me” He said shaking his head as he sighed, “And Osborne has the hungry, so you lost another one to me, how shameful” He said sarcastically with a smile. “So if you will excuse me, I’m going to go find my future self, in level five and kick his ass” He said as he started to walk away.

[clairebear]

Claire knew there had been something wrong with Tony, everything which had been happening was just way too weird and now it had been confirmed as Tony said he was really Sylar stuck in Tony's body. Claire opened her eyes wide in horror and reached into her back pocket of her jeans to pull out the taser gun. She'd use it on him if she had to. Tony or not.

"I knew you were different" she spat at him, "I don't care if you look like Tony, you obviously aren't him, and trust me, you are not going to get away with this, and I don't know what the hell your future self was thinking of doing this" she continued almost exploding and holding the gun out toward Tony.

"One move on me, and I swear Tony, Sylar I'll use it" she snapped.

What was she going to do now? Go to Noah, or swallow some pride and go to Angela about it? No, she'd stick to telling Noah, she didn't care if he hurt Tony, if he had got the hunger now because of Sylar it was just tough, but she was certain her dad would know how to sort out the current problem.

"You're not going anywhere" she shouted, as she watched him trying to walk out on her. "I don't know what the hell has happened, but I swear you aren't going anywhere until Noah's seen you, and I don't care if he hurts you. I'll explain what's going on anyway" she shouted, looking and hoping he wouldn't continue to walk away from her, because if he did, she'd finally use the gun on him.

[General Admin]

Sylar watched in horror as she pulled out the taser gun. He hated taser guns. He shook his head, debating if he should use Tony’s abilities or just let her do it. Sylar just shook his head and decided to use it. He just stood there with his blood shocked shirt just looking at Claire, wondering why she was going to do. He didn’t care. He always got tasedred by people.

“Such a pitiful girl” He said shaking his head. He spat as he stood in his same spot as she pointed the gun towards him.

“Use it? Do it?” He teased as he flashed up his hand and blue started to come out. “Ironic, Osborne he is absorbed almost the same powers as I” shaking his head.

He started to walk away and stopped in his tracks as he closed his fist of the blue. He turned to her, “So let Noah see me” He said shaking his head, “And for the record, if your concern about your friend having the hungry, if he is lucky, it won’t consume him, but if I stay in his body, longer then it will consume him and you don’t want that do you?” He said as he looked at her.

[clairebear]

"Don't talk to me like that you idiot" Claire said getting angry with him. He was starting to tease her about the taser gun as well and it was really beginning to annoy her. Why did she always managed to get caught up with so many weirdo's she began to wonder.

"Yes he got the same powers as you, almost, at least that's what he told me the last time we spoke" she replied still angry with him. She hated Sylar. What was more, after beginning to bond with Future Gabriel Gray she couldn't believe he'd do such a thing to Tony of all people.

"What are you saying Sylar? That if I take you to see Noah you'll make Tony more like you? It wont take me long to get Noah here, taser you and call dad, that's all it takes" she said through gritted teeth, as she kept her finger tightly on the trigger getting ready to pull it if need be.

[General Admin]

“First off, Missy, I’m not an idiot” He spat as he shook his head. He hated teenager, he didn’t know what the hell their problem was, but he always got into a mess with them. It was odd, but then that was a part of Sylar’s daily life always getting into people’s messes. However, this was different. He had no Peter to back him up.

“Well, your friend is pathetic” He said just looking at her. He still was pissed at his future self, for doing this to him. He was going to hurt his future self when he got the chance too, no lies. He was going to hurt him. Inflect pain on him to be exact.

“You know what, I’m not arguing with you anymore, just taser me and call Noah” He said rolling his eyes. For some reason, Tony was telling him to get tasered and that it might work getting him out. It might work.

[clairebear]

"Hah" Claire said annoyed, "Okay, then, and don't call me Missy" she snapped. She hated him, and she couldn't believe she as related to this piece of what ever he liked to think he was. He was an idiot she thought. A horrible, idiot.

"My friend is not pathetic" she spat getting really angry now. How dare he speak about her friend Tony like that. It was just not right, spitting anger at Sylar while looking at Tony, it was wrong. Just wrong. "You're the pathetic one, you hear?" she snapped at him. "Your future self seems to think so anyway" she added.

"Fine" she spat, and pulled the trigger on the taser, twice and then called her dad Noah. "Dad, you have to get to Starbucks quickly, something is far wrong with Tony" she flipped the phone shut, and just stood over Tony as Sylar with the taser, in case she needed to use it again.

[General Admin]

“Well, I can say whatever I want, Claire” He said in an annoying tone. “Freedom of speech, isn’t that a part of the Bill of Rights?” He asked rolling his eyes as she said that he was pathetic, “If my future self thinks, I’m an idiot, then explain to me why he would put me in Osborne’s body and then take my place on level five?”

Sylar feel to the ground as Claire tased him twice. He watched her speak on the phone. He bit his lower lip as he debated his escape. He just decided that he would let Noah come, he was going to go to back to level five again.
