The world seemed to move in slow motion, as I leapt up onto the platform, letting out a pained screech!
I saw Jay jerk down, I moved fast and suddenly turned to Jay and grabbed hold of his legs, held up all of his weight, as Jay let out a startled cry! I could hear the other prisoner choking behind me! But I could only save one!
"Marely..." a voice choked behind me.
That voice. I knew that voice. I half turned still holding Jay, which revealed the chaos of the courtyard, everyone was rioting and heading towards me!
I hadn't planned this far ahead!
What did I do now? I looked to the dying second prisoner!
A jolt shot through me!
"Elliot!"
Wait, where did that name come from!?
"Save him, Marley! Leave me! He is your soul mate!" Jay cried with urgency.
Elliot. Of course! Elliot! My love, my soul mate! And he was dying! But I couldn't leave Jay!
The chaos in the courtyard silenced,I looked up to see my father standing smiling up at me!
"Who is it to be Marley dear?"
No. No. I couldn't, choose!!
"MARLEY! SAVE HIM!!" Jay shouted
As he said this my attention was caught by Elliot choking,"Marr..Marley...I..I...love you," before he went still! I threw Jay down onto the floor of the wooden scaffold, as I leaped to Elliot and lifted him by his knees!
There was no response!
"ELLIOT! ELLIOT! ELLIOT TALK TO ME!"
I got him down and gently laid him on the ground.
"Elliot. Elliot baby, wake up! I'm here!"
Tears streamed down my face, as I reached out my shaky hand to feel for a pulse, at his scarred and red throat!
I waited and waited and waited.
There was nothing.
I laid my head on his chest, sobbing!
Deanna who had been silent, now let out a mourneful howl.
