It's Not Us Anymore

Normality

Dani woke up in a slightly unfamiliar place. It took her a minute to adjust the blur in her eyes but when she was able to look around she realized she was in the attic. She saw Miles and Flora standing next to each other and then Peter Quint and Rebecca Jessel appeared from thin air.

She screamed hoping someone would hear her but the cloth in her mouth prevented it. "Shut up" Peter said aggressively. The four of them talked amongst each other while Dani sat in fear. She watched as Rebecca disappeared again and after Peter followed next.

Dani watched as Miles lost to Peter and Flora lost to Rebecca. Screamed and cried for someone to hear but there was no luck. She lost hope until she thought of pounding her feet onto the floor. She did it repeatedly hoping Hannah would hear, and then Miles woke up.

"What's going on up there?" Dani heard, Hannah. She was relieved to hear Hannah. "It's about time I get rid of her once and for all." Miles said to Flora who was Rebecca. All Dani could think of was now Hannah knowing she might not be able to save her.

"Hello Mrs. Grose, I know I shouldn't be up but I wanted to play and I didn't mean to drop anything." Miles said exiting the door being sure to not let Hannah see Dani. "Well that's alright let's get you to bed." Hannah said out side the door with Miles.

"I'd like to go for a walk sadly I can't sleep." Miles said. "Alright that fine let's go." Hannah agreed and Dani's heart dropped. Unable to do anything filled with sadness she didn't move.

Suddenly Rebecca appeared again somehow not linked to Flora. "How was that?" Flora asked with a small smile. "Perfectly splendid." Rebecca said and Dani now knew why Flora always said 'perfectly splendid'. "Let's untie her." Rebecca said before looking away from Flora.

"We need to go now." I said standing up and grabbing Flora. "No wait we need Miles!" Flora said "He's gone Flora we can't save him." Dani said running down the stairs and out the door. "No Miles! Miles!" Flora shouted and continued to do so.

"Flora now!" Dani said grabbing Flora's hand and turning around. She immediately let go from the loss of air in her lungs. "No!" Flora shouted as Dani dropped from the lady's force around her.

Dani tried and tried to stand up but the loss of oxygen wasn't helping. Once we reached the old wing and were in the Windgraves room Dani was dropped and all she could see was a blurred lady holding Flora.

She slowly got up once she could finally breathe again. Going as fast as she could down the stairs. Following the two as fast as possible ignoring Henry Windgraves body on the ground. She ran into the lake "Stop!!" she screamed as loud as she could.

She then remembered the words she heard only a few minutes earlier. "It's you," she said loudly and out of breath. "It's me," she continued. "It's us." She said with tears rolling down her face watching as the lady turned around.

"Dani!" she heard from behind the lake but all she could focus on was the lady in front of her. Feeling as she felt herself become two people. Jamie ran into the water as she saw the lady disappear into this air.

Jamie watched as Dani looking out on the water completely zoned out until Jamie grabbed her into a hug. "Its okay, your okay." Jamie said over and over again and Dani panted with fear. See everything Viola saw and remembered.

They got out of the water Dani holding Flora tightly as she cried and Jamie holding Dani in fear of not knowing what had just happened. Henry was up and looked at Owen in fear.

"We need to get to the well now!" He shouted out of breath from being unconscious and almost dead. Owen followed Henry and he ran slow. "Go ahead of me! Now!" Henry shouted and Owen bolted past him.
