The Story of Rouge

Prologue

I swiftly made my way through the foggy forest, a cold metal chain laced around my fingers. Her light humming filled the air in the silent forest. They are close. My arm was on fire. I looked down as I hurriedly walked back to my home, our home, and snatched the piece of an Ash tree from my bicep. I stumbled further, yanking another piece of Ash from my neck. The skin on my hand was smoking, as were the wounds left from the wood. I could smell her skin as I got closer. I could feel her heartbeat. I had to do it…They are close.

I pushed open the door as hard as I can, ignoring the searing pain that was spreading up to my shoulder and neck. She jumped, a squeak emitting from her mouth as she whipped around.

"Good lord, what happened to you?" She yelled frantically as she came closer to try to nurse my wounds.

"I don't have much time." I said quickly.

"What happened to you, you’re bleeding!" She yelled.

I pressed my hand to her mouth, and lead her to the back. They are outside. I saw the fear in her eyes as I slowly moved my hand from her mouth.

"What is going on?" She asked worriedly.

"You must leave." I said while pulling up the secret hatch.

"Where, where are we going now?" She asked.

"I have to get you out of here." I said in a quick manner. I lightly nudged her to the opening and spoke.

"You going to walk down the stairs, turn left and then you'll be out in the city. Do not slow down, understand? Keep going." I said and threw a bag at her.

"What is this, why do you keep saying you? You’re coming with me, right!?" She yelled.

I swollen hard, grabbed her face, and crashed my lips on to hers. I held her tightly tracing every each of her into my memory. Releasing her from the embrace I nudged her towards the hole. She hopped down and looked back to me. I then handed her the chain in my hands.

"Give this to her" I said.

"Her, who is her?" She asked.

"You will know what to do when the time is right. Now you have to leave, now!" I yelled.

"I'm not leaving without you!" She yelled, tears running down her face. She held onto my hand, sobs coming from her enlarged frame.

CRASH! They are inside.

SPLASH!

"This can't be happening, not now!" I yelled at the stop of my lungs. I began pushing her, trying to get her to leave but she wouldn’t budge. Her eyes were transfixed on the amniotic fluid that pooled around her feet.

"He will be waiting at the end, please hold out until then! Now run! GO!" I yelled.

She turned away, and looked back at me one more time.

“I love you.” She said softly. My lips formed a smile as red tears leaked from my eyes.

“I love you too.”

I closed the compartment.
