Hey readers. Do not fret, I am not leaving the Cap and Allisyn story. I am simply going to do both. However; I've had this story on my mind for too long, I just had to start it! This story's characters will NOT be mentioned in "I will never know peace". I am simply using Allisyn's name because there are way to many 'Nancys'. Lol. Allisyn will also play Cap's wife, and whatever happeneds to her in the other story, will take place in this story, because the events I made in that story, happend to Nancy. I'm sorry if that's confusing. Consider this a sequel-type story.
I was riding in the carriage with my little sister, Nala for days. It was real dark out, and it was chilly. Nala's moon colored hair was shining in the little moon light we had. She was only thirteen. I was fifteen. She had fallen asleep, so I made her body fall into my lap, hoping it would keep her a little more comfortable and warm. We were on our way to Kentucky to live with our cousins. Our parents had gotton killed in a bad accident I'd rather not talk about. . . . I didn't even realize I had fallen asleep. I awoke by my little sister tugging at me. "C'mon sis, wake up, wake up! Were here, were here!" she exclaimed. I groaned and opened my heavy, exhausted eyes. "Nalaaaa." She giggled at my groaning. I hopped out of the carriage, payed and thanked the strange man who took us here, and grabbed my littles sister's hand. I glanced at the cabin I hadn't been at since I was seven. "Wow. They really cleaned this place up." I said aloud. "That we did." I heard a familiar but deeper voice, say. I turned around and gasped. "Calvin!" I exclaimed happily and hugged him tightly. "How the hell are you, lil cuz?" he said, hugging me so tightly. See, me and Calvin had been best friends since we was little. "I've been alright, Calvin." I laughed. We dazed for alittle while, both smiles on our faces. My, he grew handsome. Finally, he looked over to my little sister. "Nala! My God, you've grown up so much." he said, ruffling her hair.
She giggled and he picked her up, and spun her around. He put her down, and looked to the cabin and called, "Ma! Pa! Helena and Nala're here!" No sooner after he called that, the door slammed open and a ton of people came out. I hardly reconized them. "My lord, Helena!" Randall said and hugged me. I've always been told I was his favorite neice. "Nala!" Sally called out and hugged her tightly. Josie, the oldest, came out and twirled Nala. "You've grown so pretty!" her, Mary, and Trinnie all told her. I looked down. Everyone always fussed over her. Jim lifted up my chin. "Hey there, beautiful. It's been forever!" he exclaimed, and as soon as I saw him, I wrapped my arms around him. "My God! Jim!" I exclaimed, letting happy tears flow. Floyd ruffeld my hair, and Tolbert, Lilburn, Sammy, and William all practically hugged me at the same time. None of the other girls except for Alifair, Adelaide and Fannie came over and hugged me. I didn't get along with Josie, Mary, and Pharmer. "Where's Bud? And Roseanna?" I asked. "Y'well... We've been told that Roseanna's at the Hatfields place." Lilburn said. I rolled my eyes. "Ya'll still hate the Hatfields, huh?" I asked, smartassed. Tolbert rolled his eyes. Jim sighed and said, "Yeah, well... It's gotton worse since you've been here, hun." "Well, don't expect me to join the dirt talk on them. I grew up friendly with the most of em'." I said, straight up. "Look, cuz', we don't want no trouble with you, it's your first day here." Sammy said. I nodded.
When we were gettin ready to head in the house, Allisyn came out to greet me. Everyone else went in, Calvin stood at the door. "Dear God, Helena, it's been ages! I guess you've been sent here too, huh?" Allie said. I nodded. "Where's Bud?" I asked. "Tied up in the barn." she repied with a evil grin on her face. I tilted my head. "Allisyn Ruthalie, what'd you do to im'?" I said, half ticked off. He was one a my favorites. She giggled. "Why don'tcha go find out?" I rolled my eyes. Allisyn turned to Calvin and they smiled at eachother before walking in the house together. I started to really dislike Allisyn. First she plays with my lil cuz'n Bud, then she goes off and steals Calvin's heart. I walked into the barn and hollered. "Bud? Bud?" I called. I heard a bunch of muffles, but it was his voice. I folloed the voice, till I saw him. They hung him by his overalls on a hook, and stuffed a white cloth in his mouth. "Bud!" I called and went after him. I climbed on top of a hay barrel, and grabbed my pocket knife. I pulled the blade out with my mouth, and started sawing his overall strap. I finally cut it loose, but he fell on his arm. He yelped pretty loudly. "Shit." I mumbled, hopped of the hay barrel and crouched beside him. I rolled him over on his back, and pulled the cloth out of his mouth. "Ahhh, shit!" he yelped. "Bud, I'm sorry, please fergive me, I'm so sorry-" I ranted but he cut me off, saying "Chill out, Helena, it's fine. I think I may've sprained it though." I helped him up and he hugged me.
"Why did Allie tie you up?" I asked, ticked off. He sighed. "When you go in, look at er' face. Pharmer attacked er' yesterday." I gasped. "He what!?" He nodded. "He started makin fun a the Hatfields after the trial yesterday and she sticked up for them. He hit her, and then she spit at him, and then he attacked er'." I gasped again. "Dear Jesus... So why'd they tie you up?" I asked, not understanding. "Welp, Allisyn told me not to tell Ma and Pa, because Pharmer threatened that e' would kill er'... And I went I went in, yesterday, I was about ta." I sighed. "Damn..." "Yeah, Pharmer and both Tolbert've gotten outta hand lately." he said, lookin down. I sighed. "Great... Well, I spose we should get in, huh?" he nodded. ... We went in, and first things first, I looked to Pharmer and Allisyn, who were standing far apart as possible. Then, sure as shit, there was a huge ass bruise on her face. "Allie, don't ya dare tie yer' our cousin up like that again, because of yer own damn problems;" I spat at her. She immedietly glared at Bud. "What happend to ya face Allisyn?" I said to casually. She was lookin for words to answer. "I won't be takin shit from any one here, while I'm here, or me and Nala are gone, faster than ya can think it." I said, lookin at everyone. Tolbert got up and came towards me. "Hey, hey hunny. Were not gon' cause any more trouble, specially' in front a you and lil Nala." he said, kindly. I smiled. He always adored her.
... To be continued.
