1925-your missing piece

You were strolling through the village, picking berries from the bushes in the nearby Forrest. You had a few jars your mother had recently bought. And you were quite exited to make jam with them. Though, baking had never interested you much. The only reason you acted to enjoy it was because it gave you validation in this empty, soulless town.

These thoughts were rummaging through your mind like always, when suddenly you tripped on something. You looked down at your scraped hands and hissed, then you turned to the reason for your fall. It was a dead bunny, it's poor ribs torn up.

"Who would do such a thing to an innocent creature?" You asked no one in particular. You sat in front of the poor thing, about to mourn for it, when suddenly you see some bright goo seeping out of its ears. The strange substance soon coated the bunny entirely, and before you knew it the bunny was back to jumping around like nothing had happened.

You were shocked. You quickly scooped the rest of the mystery liquid into you're jars, and hurried home to find out more about it.

On your way to your mothers home, you ran head first into something. You looked up, and saw a tall man with brown hair and pricing gray eyes.

"Oh! I'm sorry darling, I didn't see you there." 'He was British..? Why was he in America..? Especially right after the war..' you had thought to yourself.

"uhm.. it's alright..." you got up quickly, dusting off your dress. "Are you from England..?" You asked carefully, remembering what your father told you about them before he died in the war.

He laughed slightly, and smiled. "I am in fact from Britain. But don't worry, I don't bite." He joked. You smiled a bit too and you both laughed while making small talk.

(Changing to first person POV)
The man's name was William, and he had offered to escort to my home. While we were walking, he noticed the glowing jars in my bag.

He threw me a confused look, then I finally understood what he was thinking about. "What is that?" He questioned. This was gonna be a while..

(Time skip 5 years because I'm impatient 😈)

Me and William ended up falling in love, through our scientific work and our unique personalities. We had moved far from town into a small cottage on a hill, so no one could ever find us.

When we released our knowledge on the purple substance we named remnant, the town said I was a witch and that William supported my 'unlawful actions'. They chanced us with pitchforks until we ran and started our own life.

We were happy. And we were soon going to try for children. It was perfect, a happy family, my dream work, a quiet house, and the love of my life. But then, it all fell apart. We heard banging on our door, and we knew what we had to do.

We packed all of our most important belongings and were going to escape through a special crawl space William designed for this exact moment. But what he didn't realize while we were packing was that the house caught on fire.

We were right where they wanted us, and they knew it. William and I were soon engulfed by the flames and I cried into his chest. He calmly rubbed by back, trying to stay as supportive as possible.

When we fell from the lack of air, the flames gave us severe burns. I watched the light from Williams eyes die, and I couldn't stand it. But, just then, 2 items rolled out of my bag. A jar of remnant and a syringe. I looked at the jar then back at William. I didn't know what would happen, I've only tested it on wildlife. But I quickly grabbed the items anyway, and stabbed the needle into Williams arm. The purple substance filled his bloodstream, and his whole body turned into a hue of purple.

I did the same to my body, and I began to get drowsy. I quickly picked up William and dragged him through the crawl space. It led to a Forrest far from our home, and I propped him up against a tree.

I softly kissed him on the forehead and smiled, tears rolling down my face. "My love, i pray for will be reunited again. I hope our creation works, and I hope you can live without me. I've only brought chaos to your life, and inhuman thoughts in your mind. You are my missing piece, but maybe I'm not yours. You will find it one day, just not with me. Goodbye, dear. I'm so sorry we couldn't start the perfect family like I promised." I spoke out loud, quietly crying. But then, I ran. I ran away as fast as I could and never looked back.

And that's when my new life began.
