Time Machine || Sleepy Hollow Sequel

The Legend of Sleepy Hollow

Before this starts I wanted to say that this will have references/things from t.v. shows or anime's. I'm sorry about that. This is also a sequel from the book 'The Legend of Sleepy Hollow'. Now you may continue.

The villagers of Tarrytown thought that the lanky Ichabod Crane was dead, but only one knew the truth about what happened to Mr.Crane. The villagers were in fact depressed about Ichabod, but they soon forgot about him, all but one.

Little Margaret was Ichabod's younger sister. She was very tall for the age of sixteen. She had chocolate colored hair with half of it pulled back by a red ribbon and had stunning green eyes. She wore a crimson dress with a white vest that was the length of a dress and on top of the white dress, near the top, was a laced collar.

Margaret was like the shadow of Ichabod. The townspeople didn't know about her existence but Katrina knew who she was as for her brother was deeply in love with Katrina. Who wouldn't? Not only was she rich, she was beautiful with her blond wavy hair and blue eyes like the ocean. I bet she got all the men.

After Ichabod got hit with the explosive pumpkin, Margaret saw that he had got teleported to someplace.You know the saying of 'curiosity killed the cat'? Well in this case Margaret was the cat. She jumped into the teleportation device right before it closed and was teleported to the year 2016.

While Margaret was in the teleportation device, it felt as if she was drowning. So as what anyone would do, she panicked. She started screaming for Ichabod and Katrina. While doing so the water quickly rushed into her mouth choking her. She realized this and immediately stopped. She had managed to get rid of her white vest and collar. Now on her wrist was a watch. Margaret's vision became hazy and she passed out.

Margaret woke up with a gasp. She looked around and she saw bright things and moving carriages without horses. 'Where am I?' She thought. She quickly got up and started running trying to figure where she is. She bumped into someone."Hello there." Someone spoke really loudly. Margaret screamed a bit and crawled back. "Who are you? Where am I?" She questioned. The boy smiled and introduced himself.

"My name is Taeyoung but you call me V. I'm your guardian angel in that watch of yours and you are in upstate New York." V grinned. New York? Guardian angel? "Huh? W-watch?" She looked down and on her left wrist was a golden wrist watch. The front and back were engraved elegantly and it looked heavenly as it shined in the light. It made a soft ticking sound as the hands of the watch moved. Strangely, the back of the watch also opened, but nothing was inside it. "If you don't mind me asking... What are you here for?" Margaret asked. V smiled.

"Well you have a task. You have 7 days to find Ichabod Crane and get back here before the portal closes." V explained. "And how am I going to do that? I don't even live here. Not to mention this isn't Tarrytown! I don't even know where Ichabod is." Margaret stated. "That's why I'm here. Plus it's not hard to find a really tall male looking lost and not in 2016 clothes." V smiled. Margaret was perplexed. "Huh?!? 2016! It was like 1819 where I lived!" She shouted. "Wow you're as old like that one anime guy. What was his name? Yafo? Yato? Anyway we need to hurry up. We already wasted a day." V said. He took Margaret to his place and Margaret fell asleep right when she hit the bed.

It's been five days since Margaret teleported and V's appearance. They have yet to find Ichabod, but they have multiple times seen him. They were so close yet so far.

Margaret and V walked around the streets of New York looking for Ichabod, by now she got modern cloths such as a large gray sweatshirt, regular jeans with a nice pair of hiking boots and her hair pulled up into a ponytail, but all of a sudden Margaret fell down gulping for air. Black blood streamed down out of her nose. "Maggie!" V shouted and fell to his knees. They had gotten close after being near each other for so long. "I'm fine, I'll live." Margaret tried to reason with him. "If you were fine you would be standing next to me still looking for Ichabod." V huffed.

"All I need to do is wipe it off and go on with our day." Margaret said weakly. V frowned. "No." Margaret looked annoyed. "What do you mean no? I have to find my brother in two days or I'm stuck here." Margaret felt homesick. V looked at her and the smiled. "I mean it wouldn't be so bad to have you here" V grinned even wider. Margaret looked at him with wide eyes.

It's been a day since the incident. They only have one day left to find Ichabod and get into the portal. "H-Help me!"

V and Margaret ran to the voice. On the ground was Ichabod and in front of him was a man holding what V called a gun. V decided it was time to step in.

"Taeyoung!" Margaret screamed. V had jumped out in front of Ichabod taking the bullet. The man tried shooting again but he ran out of bullets so he threw the gun and ran. Margaret ran to V's body. She held him in a bridal style on the ground. She held his hand in hers. "Don't cry... It'll make me cry." V said weakly. Margaret cried for her loved one. "Please don't leave me. I need you." She wailed. Margaret held V's wound which made him wince. "It wouldn't work anyway. You're from the past and I'm from the present." Blood slipped through his lips staining them.

"It's okay," He gulped for air, "It's okay, it's perfect. I'm in the arms of the one I love. The one I ever loved. The one I'll always love. I-I love you, Margaret... Margaret Crane." He pressed the watch button creating a portal. "Get out of here, idiot!" He screamed and with his final strength he pushed Ichabod into me and we both went into the portal.

It was like nostalgia as Margaret was in the portal. The same feeling of drowning and panicking. Instead she just let herself drown in sorrow. She didn't call for Ichabod or Katrina like she did when she first went through. Margaret wanted to call for Taeyoung, but he was dead and he will never come back.

When Margaret was back in the past, she was dropped right where Ichabod disappeared at. Ichabod laid next to her on the ground. Margaret screamed for her lost love. The townspeople started crowding around when they heard her scream. "Ichabod!" Katrina ran into his arms. He laughed slowly wrapping his arms around her waist. Last time Margaret was here, a few hours before she jumped in, Katrina was married, but that was when they thought he was dead. Did she really just change the outcome?

Ichabod and Katrina shared a kiss and they both got up. Margaret just sat there staring at the ground lifeless. "Mags-" Ichabod tried. "No! You lost that privilege the minute Taeyoung was gone!" Margaret screamed at him, "It's Margaret for you now." Ichabod was baffled. He huffed. "Come on, Mags! Don't be like this. It wasn't even my fault. It was his the moment he jumped in front of me. It wouldn't have worked out anyway-" Ichabod was stopped as Margaret jumped up and punched him. Katrina screamed and backed away. She ran for help. "It wasn't his fault! It was all your fault for going home late at night, heartbroken. You should've remembered the ghost stories! You should've moved faster, but you didn't! I-I never got to say how I really felt but you got to! I don't want to be your shadow anymore!" Margaret screamed at him and continued to punch at him.

"Stop it you two!" Brom Bones tried to stop them but Ichabod held out his hand. "It's alright. I deserve this." He said sadly. With one final punch Margaret dropped him. She stared right into his eyes. "You're dead to me." She then left. This was now Ichabod's life. Being ignored by his sister and dating the most privileged girl in town. He wanted to be happy but he couldn't help but feel sad. He truly wished he never tried to go for Katrina but that is what life is... Full of regrets.
