chapter 10

The phone rang in the distance at Tegan’s house. It was already December 24th, Christmas Eve, and I was still wondering about that video. Doppelganger??? Prophecy??? The words haunted me in my sleep. At battle camp, all we did was play games. After Christmas, though, we would start cracking down on the vamp-killing stuff.

I ran and answered Tegan’s phone. “Hello?”
“Kieyra, are you ready to go?” it was my mom. “Where?” I asked. “HAMILTON AND LONDON!!! You forgot?” She screamed. “Um, kind of.” I Admitted. “Well get ready! I’ll be there in an hour!” there was a click followed by a dial tone.

I decided to leave Anna and Katie in charge- after all, they are the best ones to teach people about vampires.

The drive to Hamilton was long and boring, but after six hours we finally got there. Every time my mom would stop for a bathroom break, I didn’t have to go, for obvious reasons. Finally, after she insisted I had “it checked out by a doctor” I went into the bathroom and stood in the stall for five minutes before washing my already clean hands.
We stopped at the house where my Aunt Lynn, Uncle Drew, and Cousins Megan and Melika lived. We had just finished purchasing a very large turkey at the grocery store where I had seen someone wearing the exact same outfit as me…weird, huh?

I rang the doorbell, and Aunt Lynn’s two dogs Kaylee and Jessica barked. Aunt Lynn ran to the door. “Hello!” she said excitedly. Aunt Lynn looked at me, confused, and then shook her head. “My eyes are deceiving me. You looked older when I saw you at the grocery store.” She shrugged. “You saw me at the grocery store?” I asked. She looked at me with a weird expression. “Yes…” “Why didn’t I see you?” I asked. “You did.” She said. “No I didn’t.” I said. “Yes, you did!” She argued. “Maybe you saw the girl who was wearing the same outfit as me.” I said. “Kieyra, I talked to you!” she said. That’s when my mom butted in. “Lynn, I think you’re losing it. Kieyra was with me the whole time- we didn’t see you.” I realized this may be my chance to find out about the prophecy/doppelganger thing. It Wasn’t me she saw! “Can I talk to you In private?” I asked. Aunt Lynn nodded and followed me into the backyard. “I never talked to you.” I said. “Yeah, you did.” She argued. “It was the other girl.” I said. “But you came up to me! You said to remind you something, remember?” this was getting creepy. Why would someone I didn’t know pretend to be me? If I didn’t know them- how did they know me? “what was it I told you?” i asked. "you were supposed to go to the pie website. oh, and you had to deliver a message to someone named kitty kat." she said. "What message?" "Game on." said Aunt Lynn, then she laughed. "Strange, right?" wait-pie website. not pie. Pi. like the really long number. Like the code name for the vampire website. I typed the web address into my handy ipod touch and checked the REAL ranking.

I was tied in 1st place for every single category with Katherine Pierce.

Kitty kat- that was my nickname. Kieyra KittyKat. And Game on- that was a message for me.
"Katherine."
