LINCOLN THE FALLEN ORIGINAL

25. RED HOODED GOWN

Sarah's POV

Gathering all the energy left in my body and despite the never ending pain that my body is going through I crawled out towards the flowing river.
Crawling on the rough surface of the land didn't seem to do any good to my naked body it just added more soreness to it with every inch I crawled.

I reached the opening of the river, the water flow seems to be normal so with great effort I pushed myself into the river. As soon as my body got exposed to the water I felt like my body begun to gain the energy that it has lost but I don't remember how I lost the energy in the first place.

It felt good to be in the water, the flowing water seemed to sweep away the soreness of my body along with it's flow. For a second I closed my eyes and tried to feel the things around me, the water wasn't as cold as the breeze which is way more cold than it should be. When I opened my eyes all I could see was and wonder was how bright and how beautiful the full moon is and that's when it struck to my head.

I begin to remember how I got here and with whom I got here, I came here for my werewolf transformation but I wasn't alone. Ian and everybody was there with me but I couldn't able to see anybody now. Despite the urge to stay in the water I walked out of it.

My body begun to shiver because of the chillness in the atmosphere as soon as I got out of the water. I couldn't able to remeber how I got myself alone in this forest with no clothes on me. Stupid memory it is, I yelled at myself in my head. I started walking around the shore for few moments to find if there is anything to wear, to help myself to keep me warm. It would be great if I find myself a set of warm clothes, I wished for it to  like a child making a wish to Santa on the eve of christmas.

As if someone heard what I thought I found a cloth placed under a rock near the opening of the forest. The dress doesn't seem to be mine. There wasn't much of cloth there, it was just a full length bright red hooded  gown. Without giving it a second thought I pulled it over my head and wore it.

I started walking into the opening of the woods with nothing but the company of moon light. I felt like the moon was directing me to somewhere, to some place I should be or so I thought. I walked for sometime which felt like forever, my legs stopped when my ears heard some fainted noise. I rushed towards the direction where that sound came from.

I saw someone lying on the with face on the ground. I ran and kneeled beside that person. I turned him so that I could see his face.

Josh....

It can't be true, he can't be Josh but my eyes said it is him. I got his head on my lap and tried to wake him up by calling out his name loud enough for the people around the mountain to hear but Josh didn't react to my voice. It was just a matter of second before I realize he wasn't bearthing. My heart sanked with the possiblity of him dying. He can't die he is a vampire for god sake. I noticed his body was covered with blood and bruises, claw marks was all over him. Before I could figure out what happened I heard someone scoffing to my left.

Keeping myself from falling out I rushed towards the place where I heard the scoffing wishing it should not be Ian not in the condition like Josh... but it wasn't good it was even worse.

Amy...Oliv...

They were both lying on the ground. Oliv wasn't moving, her body just laid there as Josh was. I went to Amy helped here to sit up. She wasn't in any good when compared to Josh and Oliv but she was breathing. As soon as she regained little consciouness she looked to where Oliv was lying, tears filled her eyes as like it did in mine.

She coughed again and blood started to spill from her mouth. She begun to fall on the ground I grabbed her shoulders to support her.

"What the hell happened here, who did this to you all?" I asked her.
