Legacies - Lizzie Saltzman

Part 27 - Caroline's era at school II

Mom says enough fighting already. Hope you have to accept the truth. Look at the way you are acting. It isn't going to be acceptable here anymore.

Hope just nods her head and says nothing.

Mom says you all will be taught how to fight in real life so that you can protect each other and yourself. I will see you all tomorrow. All the teaching staff would be here by tomorrow. I will introduce them to you all. And Dorian what do you want to do? Do you want to leave this place too? Dorian says with the changes you are making Caroline it's better that I don't stay here.

Mom says resignation accepted Dorian. You took a wise decision. Dorian says I will leave tonight. And he leaves to pack his stuff.

Mom says I deeply apologize that in my absence you had to endure such abuse and torture from the person who was saving you. But no more abuse and torture. I was looking for a way to save my daughters from the merge which meant killing one another at the age of 22. Since Lizzie is a heretic, I don't have to find any solution. I can be here with you all. And I will make sure the school doesn't fail you again.

I say mom can uncle Kai stay with us?

Josie says yes mom. He was also wronged in his life, he was also abused and tortured, no one ever gave him a chance.

I say mom, we have met our bio mom and she told us how she regrets being an awful sister to uncle Kai.

Mom says he can stay but no killing and feeding on people. I have always felt like my friends wronged you too that's why you snapped and did what you did.

Uncle Kai says thank you Caroline. I won't make you regret it. I can't disappoint my nieces. I have grown to like them.

Mom says they are likeable aren't they. Anyways everyone you all are dismissed. Tomorrow we would all assemble here so that I can introduce you all to the remaining staff members and tell you about your classes. Everyone is dismissed now. Please go to your rooms.

After that all of us leave for our rooms. Uncle Kai comes with us to our room.

We were having fun together suddenly door opens and mom comes in.

We both run to her and hug her. We say thank you mom for standing up for us today.

Mom says I will always fight for you guys.

Josie say why didn't bio dad fight for us like he did for Hope?

I says because we were a disappointment to him, an embarrassment, who were worthy of his love, attention, affection. He gave all that to Hope.

Mom says never speak about yourself like that Elizabeth. I don't know why your father didn't fight for you but I will fight for you and so will your uncle Kai.

Uncle Kai says your mother is right kiddo. Ric doesn't deserve your time, love, affection and attention. He made you feel so low about yourself. He wasn't right in the way he treated you both.

I say thank you for being their for both of us mom and uncle Kai.

Mom says anytime. Now you both sleep and I am going to show your uncle Kai his room.

We say goodnight bye.

Mom and uncle Kai say goodnight bye.

Next day

Everyone has assembled at the assembly hall. Mom introduced our training teachers who would teach us how to fight.

Then she said about our classes, how the things would be from now on.

We all were really happy with the changes made and were looking forward to it.

After 1 year

It's been whole 1 year and it went by so quickly I can't even explain. Because mom was here, no one bullied me and judged me for my mental illness. Uncle Kai as usual he was supportive of me and Josie.

We all are together and stand united in front of Hope. Yes, she still isn't happy with the way things were going on. She even blamed herself that bio dad is gone because of her, all the students are against him because of her. She tried to kill herself by jumping from the terrace but Josie stopped her. But Hope pushed Josie in anger and she fell from the terrace and died.
