Sir Thomas Sharpe

Prologue

For you who already watched Crimson Peak movie. This story happened after a century from the last tragedy.

******************************************************************************************

Your father is a research scientist. He works for Government. Research scientists work in almost every area of science imaginable. They plan and carry out experiments and investigations in a range of areas. This time the place they chose is in England, Allerdale Hall. So here you are, stuck with them, your father and couples of his staff will work on this field.

This remote Gothic Mansion and Allerdale Cumberland has been taken over by the local government. It has been renovated, rebuild, without eliminates the historical value of it. The ornate foyer in the castle gives an expansive view. You can see all three floors - you can see the level where the bedrooms are, you can see the attic spaces, you can see through to the great hall in the back. The house is the embodiment of the family and the generations that have lived within it for centuries. Now the estate of Sharpe's family will be open at a certain time as a place of tourism.

While your father and the others are moving their research equipments and food supplies, you took a room which is the located nearby from the stairway and put your belongings. You have no idea who was this room belong to. It was large and there were a king bed size, not bad you thought; a wardrobe, desk and chair, mirror, window and bathroom. Some are still well maintain. While the other has already been replace with new one.

You knew the history of Sharpe family, well which is tragic and gruesome. A tale child abuse, incest, murder, violence, ghosts, unburied bodies, psychologically unstable of Sharpe siblings.

You walked down the stairs and looked at them were still working, moving things. You decided to marvel the décor of castle later. Instead you walked at the back yard aimlessly. There were an old sheds, and the wide back yard covered by bushes, weeds. You walked until you almost stumble on something hard between the high growing shrubs, as you thought it was a rock, but then you glanced on it, it was a gravestone, very old gravestone. The writing on the tombstone was almost unreadable. You sweep off the dirt and moss above a concrete block. You read : Thomas Sharpe. Jesus. You were in state of shock, you get an instant goosebumps. You sighed, the last heir of Sharpe.

******************************************************************************************

Thomas was walking around the house aimlessly, he stop in front of the fireplace when he heard the sound of door cracked open. He watched a few men entered and carrying odd equipments into the castle. He caught a glance of fairly maiden among the men and he curled his lips up. Thomas seemed delight at the thought of he had companions, the mansion was occupied once again, so it look seemed more alive. Honestly, before today, everyday it was quiet and boring.

******************************************************************************************

Thomas was at attic of the house and letting the mortals mind their business. Suddenly, he felt a shiver runs up his spine, Thomas believes whenever he get shiver, It means that someone is stepping or walking on his grave. He glanced out over the window and watched the lady was sitting beside his grave. She has found it, he thought.

****************************************************************************************

You walked off from the grave and entered the house, you found your father and tell him about the grave you found on the back yard. You questioned why the local government didn't pay attention to the grave the former land lord of the Allerdale. The grave was hardly ever maintained and taken care. It was such a pity. We should have been given more respect. Since we are going to stay at Sharpe family's house, you suggested we need to fix it, so the grave will look more decent or proper.

You drove to the town in order to find the grave repair service or they usually called the Grave Saver. You found them and they agreed to start working now. Four men entered your car after put their stuff in luggage and you drove home. On the way, you stopped at florist and bought some fresh well cut white roses. They are beautiful and you loved the fragrance.
Entered the mansion, your father greeted you. You showed them the back yard. They worked swiftly while you helped revoke the grass. One of them asked what do you wish to write on the headstone. Well since you didn't know when exactly he borned and died. You considered writing a verse from the bible.

Thanks to the heaven, they've finished before the sunset. All of you circled the grave, some of them have their gaze down and you began to say prayer :

Lord Jesus Christ, you hallowed the graves of all who believe in you and so made the grave a sign of hope that promises resurrection even as it claims our mortal bodies.

Grant that our friend, Thomas sharpe, may sleep here in peace until you awaken him to glory. For you are the resurrection and the life. Then he will see you, face to face. And in your light will see light. And know the splendor of God. For you live and reign forever and ever.

Lord, by whose mercy the faithful departed find rest. Send your holy Angel to watch over this grave through Christ our Lord.

Reply by all : Amen.

Thomas was watching all the time, when you put white roses on his grave. The small kindness from you touched his heart. As everyone walked off, your father patted your shoulder and said "My dearest child, I'm proud of you."
"It was nothing, but thank you father." he smiled softly and went into the mansion. You felt goosebumps wash all over, you know maybe Thomas was here, attending and saw everything.

Thomas went into his grave, settles and rests. It is nice, quiet and dark. Thomas has not the chance to know her, but whoever she is, Thomas is grateful and felt peaceful.
