It seemed like an eternity

Thomas Ashworth

Previous:

It was wierd, because he was my little brother, but since Elizabeth turned him later than me, he looked much older. "Are you okay?" I asked him, and he looked down. He was still mad at me, and i understood completely.

Now:

Editors note: We are now in Laura's perspective.

"Are you okay?" I asked her, and she looked dizzy.

I was thrown off her back, and saw her falling down on the ground.

"Oh my god. Chatherine?" I screamed, and ran over to her.

I tried feeling her pulse, and it was gone. She wasn't breathing either.

I had no idea if that was normal for her, or not.

I lifted her head up, and put my jacket under.

What was i supposed to do?
We were miles away from any sort of civilization, and i highly doubt that she would get any help there anyway.

Suddenly, i heard a sound coming from behind one of the trees.

"Who is it?" I yelled, and saw a shadow appear from behind the tree.

It was a young man.

He talked different, almost ancient english.

His clothes were a bit wierd too, a long black coat, and a sort of top-hat.

He smiled, and walked towards me.

"Who are you?" I asked him, looking at Chatherine laying there.

"Well, how rude of me." He said, and sat down on the ground, leaning his back against a tree.

"My name is Thomas Ashworth, and why the hell is my sister friends with you?"

He said, and i freezed. Thomas was the name of Chatherine's brother.

The one who killed all those people.

"Can you help her?" I asked, and watched him reaching for something in his pocket.

He pulled out a pocket watch, and looked at me.

"What is your name?" He asked me, and smiled in a creepy way.

"Laura Davidson, but that is not important. Can you help her?"

I said, and looked at Chatherine again.

"Yes, i know what is wrong with her, she was poisoned.

By someone with a really bad personality."

He said, and i wondered who he was talking about.

"Her name is Elizabeth, and she is the only person i believe could have done this.

But you don't really have a reason to trust me at all."

He said, and i sighed.

"If you really intend to help Chatherine, tell me who this Elizabeth is."

I said, and i could see that he was sad. He looked at me, and then he looked at Chatherine.

He really cared for her, something that surprised me.

"Elizabeth was our oldest sister, and Chath and her used to do everything together.

They were born some years apart, but still look almost identical.

One day, Elizabeth disappeared, and she only came home around a year after.

Chatherine was dying of the plague, but Elizabeth turned her so that she would survive."

He said, and looked at chatherine.

"It was tragic what happened next.." He started saying, but before he could finish, Chatherine started screaming.

"What is wrong?" I tried asking her, but she was unconscious.

Thomas ran over to her, and smiled.

"I forgive you."
He said, and started crying.
