Time Twist

Chapter 8 Horrible Histories

Everything was still, everyone was quiet,I look at Alexander his face had changed completely no longer full of joy or confidence, just an empty shell of Alexander stood there looking at Nathan he looked the same to me, but Alexander and Catherine had seen him in a whole new light there Catherine just looked horrified while Alexander stood firm in his place with a blank expression. Until Nathan groans, by instinct Liz's medical training kicked in and she ran to him, untied him, and felt his pulse. Alexander saw her helping Nathan stand up and became angry so angry, he pounced. He pushed Liz away an acidic green took over over his eyes he rings his hands around Nathan;s neck and begins to squeeze is hands turn into this acidic green matching his eyes and burns Nathan blood begins to pour down Nathan's body coming from his severely burned neck, "stop !Alexander you lunatic let him go!" calls Liz she screams Nathan tries to move Alexander's hands off his neck but could not succeed, "You're killing him! You said you don't kill!" I scream," I don't kill people this is a pathetic demonic monster is the reason why, it must die"Alexander responds as he continues to strangle Nathan in a last desperate attempt Liz and I look to Catherine still horrified on the floor,"Do something you have to stop this!" Catherine is shocked awake, she jolts up her eyes flicker to the violet they were before. She puts her hands up and together points her two indexes and ring fingers and begins to pull her hands apart she was focused on Alexander's hands the farther her hands were from each other, the farther Alexander's hands were form each other as well.She had pulled Alexander from Nathan Alexander looks at his still glowing hands Catherine mutters something and makes Alexander's hand stop glowing and turns his eyes back to brown. Nathan falls to the floor His neck burned with bloody hand prints around it. Liz runs to him,

 " These are 3rd degree burns! How did you do this? or better yet how could you do this? You called him a monster, but this doesn't look like a monstrosity? I need bandages, burn cream alcohol, a suture kit I don't know if I can do this, oh God" Liz starts weeping over the unconscious, Catherine goes to Liz as she put her hands on the charred skin as an attempt to stop the bleeding, Catherine mutters once more her eyes light up she waves her hands over Nathan's neck and it was all gone the only reminder of the barbarity that happened here was the blood stains on Nathan's shirt and on Liz's dress. Liz dries her eyes and looks at Catherine and back at Nathan,

 " Thank you" she says gratefully she checks his pulse,

 " His Heart rate is normal, thank you so much, I know this sounds selfish, but I was not ready to loose my first patient, thank you I don't know how you do all of this, but I just know it works so thank you." Alexander looks at blood covered hands and goes upstairs, Catherine looks at me,

" Please go to him I must check to see if Alexander put any long-lasting damages that didn't fix, and please be sympathetic, you don't know the whole story." I nod and climb the stairs, I turn right in search of Alexander the second door i saw was open so I went to check, I see Alexander sitting on the edge of the bed looking at his shaking hands, it had appeared that he tried to wash the blood off, but there was still the red stains all over his hands his eyes were so dark and lost, I go to him,

  "Do you want to explain what just happened?" i ask him as gently as I could, he doesn't even turn,

 " I had him I could finish I could have solved everything it all was going to be over, I had him it was so easy why did I fail? I had him, and, and , and" He trailed off

" And how was killing him gonna solve everything?" I ask, he still did not acknowledge my existence

" I think it, it was the blood, it was just so warm and thick, I had felt blood before , but never like that it was terrible I knew that the blood was gonna stop forever, blood was never scary for me i used to slaughter cows and hunt deer, blood is not a problem, it it was that blood, it was so dark and bad, but it was still pumping and it was still alive not cold and dead, when i was trained they told me that the dead are cold and when you kill blood is cold but, it wasn't it wasn't I, why didn't he die?" He began to hyperventilate and his hands shook harder, I took his hands in mine
