Chapter 3- Back to the Past

Previously on 'Signed, Jack the Ripper'...

"Going somewhere Jacob?" The Ripper sneered, Jacob turned around to find Jack holding your waist and his knife held closely on your throat. One cut, and you'd be done for it.

"Let go of her!" Jacob yelled at him, but The Ripper wouldn't budge,"Jack, you're sick." Jacob said, eyeing Jacob with fear and hatred in his brown eyes whereas Jack's grey eyes were filled with madness and pain.

"Jack..." You say with your raspy voice, your lungs barely catching enough air to keep you alive,"We can... We can fix you..." You cough, more blood splattering on the floor as you wipe your mouth with your sleeve.

"Fix ME?" He yelled, holding his knife right above Jacob's face, your heart racing faster but your vision only blackening,"I am the solution!"
***
"Ja-Jacob... Gone..." You began to babble, the pain of Frederick lifting you up, and cradling you bridle style that made you groan heavily," The Ripper... H-...He's done it again..."

William couldn't believe what he was reading, he didn't understand why his parents needed Evie so badly, he wondered why they seem so desperate for her attention. He began to wonder why they didn't want him to go visit them, their own son! William knew they were hiding something, and he was going to find out exactly what it was, and no one will stop him...

1 Week Later
London 1888

You tossed and turned in your bed, well, the hospital bed to be exact. After Mr. Abberline finding you on your apartment floor all bloodied up and bruised, he rushed you to the hospital as soon as he could. Your wounds weren't that severe, but it did make you sleep for a week straight and the moment you woke, you woke up with a jolt and scream. Ever since Jacob's kidnapping, you've been having nothing but horrible nightmares of the infamous killer.

You lay in the hospital bed in cold sweat again with your hands gripping the side of the bed with such force, your breathing was irregular, and your heart was racing like lighting all across your body. You breathed heavily till you felt your heart beat calming down a bit. You felt tears threatening to escape your eyes, so you brought your knees close to your chest, wrapping yourself in a tight hug. It may have been a month since Jacob's disappearance, but it felt like months, years, decades! You didn't know how you even managed to survive the Ripper's brutal beatings he gave to you, but you were lucky to be alive. With one more tight hug to yourself, your heart rate was back to normal, the cold sweat was now gone and dry, and you released yourself from your hug.

Checking your pocket watch, it was just a little over 10 am. You didn't know how much longer you could survive being in this place that was slowly driving you insane, but just as you began to think of Jacob once more, you heard knocking on the other side of the hospital door. You yelled for them to come in, and once they did, tears began free falling from your face as you became face to face with your loved one.

"(Y/N)..." Evie said with tears filling up in her eyes and she immediately ran to you with open arms. She hugged you closely and tightly, and with all your healed wounds, you were able to hug her tightly in return. You caressed her head gently while silently sobbing in her arms. She let the hug go and cupped your cheeks to face her tear filled eyes.

"What happened to you?" She asked worriedly but sternly which made you look down, feeling more tears fill your eyes as you get up from wear you were sitting. Luckily, you were already dressed in your robes, you just adjusted your hoodie to cover your facial features that only faded scars filled your face. You sighed heavily, feeling your stomach be filled with not butterflies, but with black treacherous bats that flew around.
