I takes less then a second for me to realise what I have just seen. A young girl scrambling up a tree, being chased by a pig faced, winged beast. She is screaming, her clothing torn and tattered, blood running down the side of her face and gushing from a deep gash on her leg. For a minute I am paralyzed, the fear stopping me and I am unable to move, when my protective sister trait jumps in an in an instant, I am scaling the tree to reach as high as possible. "Get down! What the hell are you doing?" Ben screams up the tree, "Are you trying to get yourself killed?" He adds, instantly waking up the others surrounding. They all stare at me as I continue climbing, I look into her eyes seeing not only her fear but mine and more important the look on my sisters when we found our brother dying in hospital.
**********
We are running, as fast as we can to the hospital, my fingers intertwined with Emily's. We continue running until we reach it, without a thought we burst through the doors only stopping at the desk to ask where he is, we don't bother to breath. "....Andrew.... O'Neil.....please.......we..are his.......sisters" I say while hyperventilating. The nurse looks up at us with eyes full of sadness and regret and I think I know what is coming, "I am so sorry girls but Andrew just died" She says with a hint of despair, "I am sorry" I turn around to look into her eyes, her usual bright sparkly blue eyes have clouded over, like she has lost all hope........
***********
I push the memories quickly out of my mind, it's too late now for him but I can save her. I balance on the soles of my feet and leap across branches, determined to save this girl. I grab a stick nearby and carefully carve a sharp end with my pen knife, I am and throw it directly at the back of the beasts head. It turns around as if about to suddenly pounce on me when the yellow eyes gloss over, and it collapses falling to the ground around the vast area of foliage. I grab the girl, "Are you okay?" And instantly she blacks out.
I look at her as she rests and all that comes to mind is that of my sister, I look at Ben, Matt and Britney below they look worryingly upon me, is this another one of their tricks? I think before turning my head to look at the girl.
