"She's gone." Whispers. Like if I listened hard enough there were whispers. A man's voice. Daryl?
I listened harder. "She's gone..."
No. Not him. I recognised it.
"She'll be back..." I heard a female's voice I also recognised.
"But she's gone." The man's voice whispered. A strong, distinct smell of whiskey filled the air around me and it got hotter.
"Mike stop!" It rung out a few times and I still daren't open my eyes in fear I would just see walkers, blood and gore. Mike. Mike? My brother. I let out a breath I didn't realise I was holding and listened closer. There were sobs. The cries. Screams of emotion. A girl.
"I'm so sorry Amelia..." Another voice rang out. A girls again. Amelia. Mike and Amelia. My older siblings. I realised that the male's voice I'd heard first was Mikes and the first females was Amelia.
"How did he go?" The same voice echoed.
"Alcohol poisoning." I make the assumption this was Amelia.
It was only then I realised. Mike and Amelia. They're in England. Why can I hear them? I'm hearing things. I'm going crazy.
Yet no matter how much I tried to tune it out, the voices only got more vivid. It didn't make sense. Not even what they were saying.
"I'm so sorry Leah. I love you." I heard Amelia's voice again. Then more crying. But it was a young girl. Leah.
"Why did you leave me!?" Her voice screamed out. I felt tears accumulate in my eyes and drip down my cheeks though my eyes were still shut. I was still on the ground but couldn't move. Why was she saying that? What happened? Millions of questions come to front and more tears fell. I felt like I couldn't breathe. I felt like I was drowning yet my throat was scratchy and dry. I was shaking uncontrollably. Well it felt more like the ground was moving.
"Leah!" I tried to scream out but I could only manage a raspy whisper.
"Don't worry! I'll be with you in a second!" Leah said in a croaky voice, followed with a little laugh.
I then got goose bumps as the air around me went from humid and hot to icy and dry. I finally brought myself to open my eyes. Everything was still a blur but there was now a figure in front of me. He was blurred but I installed recognised it was Mike.
"Mike!" I tried to yell but again it was nothing but a tired, barely audible scream. He smiled softly before he dropped to the floor. His limp body lying on the floor. The smell of whiskey came back and the tears started to drip again. I continued to try shout but the more I tired, the harder it got.
"Mike!" I heard a girl's voice shout from my left. My eyes managed to depart from what I assumed was Mike's lifeless body and turn to Amelia. She was sitting against a tree with her knees pulled up to her chest, crying. Again, I tried shouting but no words were coming out anymore. Just close to silent screams. It was almost impossible to see unless I kept blinking the tears away.
Amelia was screaming for Mike through echoes of heavy crying. All of a sudden, she had some kind of small bottle in her hand. Not like a drink bottle though, a bottle of pills. I watched as she opened it and smiled softly before she started tipping them into her mouth. Suddenly, another figure joined the scene. A girl in a blue and white floral dress. Tears streaming down her face and cries of utter distress.
"Amelia!" She cried out the Amelia. It was obvious this was Leah causing me to cry more. I felt a pang in my chest and a sharp, throbbing pain in my head.
"I'm so sorry Leah. I love you." I recognised that Amelia had said this before. She pulled Leah into her arms before chucking the rest of the pills from the bottle into her mouth. She smiled again as she stroked her crying sisters hair and closed her eyes.
"Why did you leave me!?" Leah screamed. She got up and wiped her face before running off. My vision blurred again and I couldn't see her. Everything went silent again. Not even the walkers could be heard. Suddenly there was a whisper that sounded like someone was talking into my ear from behind me.
"Don't worry, I'll be with you in a second." The voice whispered, Leah's voice. Before I could do anything else, I jumped in shock as a pair of feet were suddenly hanging above me. White, frilly socks and light blue slip on shoes with a little bow at the front. I was utterly confused until I managed to crawl back slightly and made out a body. Leah's body. With a rope around her neck, he mouth in a light smile, hanging from the tree above me in that same fading floral print dress.
