It was 10:15 on the rms titanic, things seemed gloomy and nothing would change that. Adalyn was struggling to break free with ismay lingering nearby. The bow of the boat was well on its way to the bottom and the mail room had starting filling. Mass panic spread as the women and children boarded the boats and the men smoked there cigars and spilled their brandy ignoring the screams that shouts that covered the boat.
"Well my dear that's my cue as the violin plays and the boat sinks you my dear will go under with the ship. I will stow away on a life boat and help a distressed Mr. Andrew's. Good night my dear it was a lovely run!"
He took off up the steps. As his steps grew faint Adalyn shouted "you won't get away with this!"
Water started dripping on Adalyn as her bloody wrists wore out. She could see through the window. The window was covered entirely. Air would run out, the window would fail and she would be dead.Thomas's point of view
"We have to find her!!!! I'm not leaving this ship without her. If my fiancé goes down with the ship so do I."
"But sir, I'm afraid if she's below deck the mail room has already flooded and the boiler room is compromised she may already be gone sir, it's time to board they want hold the life boat much longer it's fine sir, I'm sure eventually when we hit America you can find someone else." The Stewart walked away leaving a shaken up Thomas. She was the love of his life, he had boarded her parents but had yet to find her. He had to keep searching. A gun shot fired leaving the air calm and quiet for a moment. That was it he had less than 10 minutes top to find his Adalyn. They wouldn't survive the water that much he knew.
Down the stairs he went. He heard water rushing among many things. He paused at the bottom of the stairs.
"Please someone help me!" He heard a woman shout.
He instantly ran towards the voice tears brining his eyes. He hoped this was her. He wouldn't leave the ship if he didn't find her.
"Adalyn?!" He shouted the cold air reaching the bottom of his lungs making him stifle a cough.
"Thomas it's me!!! Help please I'm tied up"
Thomas turned the corner to reveal the back of a slender women tied up.
He began crying immediately.
"Oh Adalyn oh dear im so sorry love are you all right what happened? I'm so happy I found you!!" Thomas embraced the pale young woman she reminded ridged.
"Darling?"
Thomas pulled out a knife and cut the rope freeing the young woman. He picked her up and carried her around the corner through the ice cold water, that was up to his ankles and up the stairs they made it to the first class deck when Thomas was knocked off his feet and Adalyn was sent flying."What the hell was that?! Darling are you alright?"
"My love I think my arms broken" Adalyn began crying her face contouring in pain.
Thomas ran over to her to examine it. It was broken. Thomas took his handkerchief off and wrapped her delicate hand with it.
Out of nowhere Ismay grabs Adalyn and holds her over board. That cold ridged air containing her breath as her dress dangled below the open black ocean.
"I'll do it you know I will, you stole her from me then had me Locked up and kicked out from the company I swear to it I'll drop the girl. Give me my partnership back with Harland and Wolff." Ismay gritted his teeth as he shook arms growing tired from holding the girl over board.
I looked as my life flashed before my eyes, she was mine true mate nothing mattered without her. I have a pistol in my pocket. Ismay may have forgotten about...
"Thomas please I didn't mean to cause any trouble i-I-.""
"No darling hardly any trouble has been caused it's nothing that can't be undone, we would love to have Mr.Ismay back with us at Harland and Wolff, his engineering skills are greatly desired darling, now Mr.Ismay do we have a deal bring the girl aboard and we can forget any of this has happened?"
Thomas stepped back and watched as Adalyn shook her head not wanting Thomas to make the deal.
"Well quite so, sorry my dear back aboard you go run off to Mr.Andrew's!"
Thomas embraced the cold woman and pulled his coat tight around the two of them Ismay began walking away with a smirk, as Thomas reached into his pocket and drew out his cold silver pistol and fired one single shot at the back of Ismays head shooting him dead as his lifeless body tumbled over board and into the freezing sea."Now daring shall we enter a boat?"
With that Thomas took his bride to be as he stepped into the boat filled with other passengers he took her hand gracefully and brought her upon his lap, wrapped up in his coat. They looked up as the night descended upon them and they were dipped into the cold frosty water. They took one last glance at the ship god couldn't sink and rowed on towards the sunset.By far my favourite chapter :)
