Behind the War. BOOK 2

~Chapter 8~

((still Jacks pov))

I was running along a path, it felt as if it was getting longer and longer as i ran, but soon after it went straight to a dead end, and all that a cliff. I almost went flying off, but luckily I caught myself. I took steps back a I sat down.

"How... Long... Have I been.... Running..." I was out of breath, but I couldn't get her out of my head... What if I can't make it in time? What if I never make it? Will she fight it a wake up? Or will she.... Die...? I felt my ooze like tears slide down my cheeks as I thought of a life without her... I can't no... Couldn't live without her... I put my hands to my face, covering my face. My mask fell off awhile ago as I was running... But I didn't care, no one was around. So why wear it? I didn't realize I was crying... I looked at my hands, they were soaked with black. I looked up to where the cliff led, and stood up.

I can't give up now... I'm so close! I took a map from my pocket and opened it... Where this so called 'myth' should be right across this cliff but... The map shows no cliff. I looked up then back to the map,

"Hmm... Maybe if I..." I took a few steps forward, I felt sick... Cause how high up the cliff edge was. I took a deep breath,

"I won't know if I don't try..." I looked down and saw the fog, I took another deep breath, "here goes nothing..."

Then I took a step forward off the cliff...

~(Y/n) pov~

I sat in my room bored as hell, I was now able to walk around the hospital, it was fun messing with the nurses and doctors... I smirked,

Hmmm... Wonder what would happen if I....

I took a marker from a desk, it takes all my energy to move stuff, but I'm getting used to it. I started to write on the wall, then it went from writing to drawing... When I was done I looked at it, blush rising to my cheeks as I look at what I drew. It was a drawing of Jack, but in his 'cp form' I giggle to myself as I put my hand up to the picture...

"I wonder what your up to now.... Jack..." I felt a tear slip down my cheek for I knew that my time was almost up, I stood up taller and kissed the picture,

"I... I'll miss you jack.... I.... I-i hope... You'll have a... H-happy life..." I smiled weakly and soon I fell to my knees crying, the monitor of my heart beat sped up as I cried, a doctor came running in,

"Mrs. (L/n)! Please... I know you can hear me but please calm-" he noticed the picture...
"-d-down..." His eyes were wide with shock,

"Mrs... (L/n)...? D-did you..." He walked up to the drawing and noticed words that I now regret writing there...

I will always love you... No matter how far I fly I will still soar through your sky, I will always watch over you.... My love...

The doctor read it out loud while looking at the picture of Eyeless Jack,

"Your...." He paused and let out a sigh,

"That boy... That's him... Isn't it...?" The doctor looked at the drawing, I was afraid he might call the police and tell them I'm involved with a serial killer,

"Crap..." I said to myself as tears slipped down my pale cheeks,

"Mrs. (L/n)..." He looked to my body and walked up to it...

"I know this might be hard to believe, but." He gave 'me' a warm smile, then spoke in my ear,

"Your secret is safe with me..." And with that he left, but soon after came back with a water water bucket and sponge, he cleaned off the picture but left the words. He smiled at the words,

"The words can stay... It's almost like a beautiful poem in one sentence." He gave a sad smile, has this man lost someone he loves dearly to him? I looked down,

"Th-thank you..." I said and the doctor jumped, I looked up and seen I was visible to him, it was like out of a movie.

"Mrs... (L-l/n)???" He seems to have seen a ghost... Well, that's true... I AM a ghost,

"Y-.... You c-can s-see m-me?" I looked at the doctor, he nodded.
"You can hear me too... Can anyone else see me!?" I asked with my hopes high that I would be able to be in his arms again. I missed being in his arms so much, I felt tears fall down my cheeks, the doctor was already gone, I peeked out the door and saw him talking to the nurses that helps with me, I watched as they started walking my way, I quickly hid. Afraid that they wouldn't see me and crush my wish of being able to hold him again,

"(Y-y/n)? Are you in here...?" A nurse called, I threw something, but still hid,

"Doc... Can you see her?" He shook his head,

"Mrs. (L/n), please... I wish to test to see if I'm the only one able to see you..." The doctor called out, I wiped a tear away, and stood. I slowly moved a curtain and the nurses eyes widened as they saw it move, but what got them most was how they saw me.

"You can.. see me...?" I asked looking up through my pale (h/c) hair... They walked up to me. I looked up even more,

"Doc..." One nurse said,

"Yes?" He thought the same thing I could, do they actually see me?? I started to smile,

"I... I don't... I'm sorry." They both said and my smile faded, a tear fell down my cheek,

"I knew it..." I said looking at my feet, the nurses left watching the doctor as they passed,

"Sorry doc..." The one said stopping and putting a hand on his shoulder,

"It's alright... You can head back to lunch." He smiles sadly at the nurse, and she nodded, leaving me and the doctor alone,

"Mrs..." He paused,

"You don't always have to call me that." I smiled sadly,

"Ah... Yes.. Sorry, mrs- er... (Y/n), I hope your lover will see you too. Good luck." He gave me a warm smile before he headed for the door,

"Doc."

"Yes?" He stopped, and turned back to me,

"Did... Did you have someone you love dearly pass? I just wanted to know cause you left the words *I point to the words I wrote* and I seen the sadness in your eyes- but you don't have to if you want! It's ok." I said the last sentence in a hurry so he would know he didn't have to speak about it.

"Heh... Thanks but... Maybe I should let at least someone in... Ya' know? Heh... Yea... I did, her name was Chrissy, she was beautiful, red hair, green eyes, she always wore-"

"A blue jean jacket with a black tank top underneath, and ripped jeans." I looked up at him, he stood in shock.

"How'd you know that...?" He took a step to me,

"I seen her somewhere... But I can't remember where... If I do, I'll tell you... I promise." I gave him a smile, and his gloomy form turned into a bright happy man,

"You've seen her?? I mean as a ghost but.. she's still alive!?" I nodded,
"Oh my god... I can't believe it... Please do tell when you remember, I wish to see her again." He said with a sad cheerful smile as he walked out,

I lied... I remember exactly where I seen her...

The battle...
