Hey everyone! This is part two to my Simonette trilogy, and I hope you enjoy. Rated T for references to death, scary parts, and bloody scenes in some chapters. Thanks to everyone who has kept me going in writing fanfics, and I've enjoyed writing these chapters for all of you. One last thing; if you have not read the first part to this trilogy, read it first, otherwise you will be lost in what is going on! Here's chapter one, and enjoy!
Blood spilled onto the forest's grounds from Jeanette's wound, lodged with an arrow. She had been shot just above the heart, but was still in a fatal situation, because of blood loss. Jeanette's eyes poured tears, and she was both breathless and speechless, due to being in shock from the arrow's impact, shot into her shoulder, deep. She had been shot with a silver-tipped arrow, and she could die.
Simon rushed to Jeanette, who was only a few yards away from Jeanette when she was shot. Jeanette looked up at Simon, suffering from the arrow, and attempted to grab his paw, but before she could, she passed out. Simon dropped to his knees and started to burst into tears; this was the first time in his life he had cried, so a ton of tears burst from his eyes.
Miss Miller, along with Brittany and Eleanor, stood in shock at what had just happened, and knew Jeanette was in grave danger. If she wasn't treated with a special medicine soon, she would die; a medicine beyond any ordinary medical medicine. A doctor was useless for this type of trauma, and required ancient ingredients.
"Miss Miller, is Jeanette going to die?", asked Brittany in a scared voice.
"Unless we give her a special medicine, she will die soon," replied Miss Miller.
"What kind of medicine?"
"An ancient medicine made in the 1800's, when experimentation for a cure to Remagoralisis disease was being developed."
"The sickness that Jeanette was suffering from, during her transformation," interrupted Simon.
Miss Miller grabbed her crossbow, and aimed it at Simon. "Die!"
Simon reacted in defense. "WHOA! The curse is broken! Jeanette killed the Master; the one behind all of this madness!"
Miss Miller lowered the crossbow. "Why should I believe you?!"
"If the curse was not broken, Jeanette would be dead by now, due to you shooting her with silver, and her being a fully transformed Remagorah. The reason she hasn't died, is because only small bits of the curse inside of her haven't faded away."
Miss Miller lowered the crossbow, knowing Simon was telling the truth. "Your kind disgust me. All you do is kill, kill, and kill more. How many people did Jeanette consume? Three? Four? Five?"
"None. Mine and Jeanette's only kill was a deer."
Miss Miller gave Simon a look a disgust. "Stay away from my daughter, or you will be sorry you ever met her."
"I'm afraid I can't, because her and I have developed a strong bond; a bond that is impenetrable, and I can help you save Jeanette from death, but only if you let me."
Miss Miller knew she had no choice, because she wanted to save Jeanette, who was slowly dying. "You win. Now, help us."
"Get her in the car, and take her home; I'll take care of the rest."
"Very well. Girls, help me lift your sister."
Brittany and Eleanor wasted no time, and with Miss Miller's assistance, lifted Jeanette into their arms', from the ground. Jeanette was heavy, due to being deadweight, but Brittany and Eleanor used every bit of their strength to get their sibling to safety. The blood continued to leak from Jeanette's wound, despite the arrow preventing any further blood loss.
"Hold on, Jean," said Brittany, silently.
Simon had departed from the forest, and started heading back to his home, so he could get the things he needed to save Jeanette's life. He was halfway home, when he was suddenly attacked from nowhere, and was receiving punches to his face and stomach, along with kicks to his back and ribs. Simon fought back, and threw a fist into one of the attacker's face, so powerful, it knocked the attacker off of him, back five feet. As for the other attacker, they backed away, allowing Simon to rise back to his feet. Once he got a look of the attackers, he was shocked that it was his brother's; Alvin and Theodore.
Alvin was on the ground in a push-up posture, spitting blood from his mouth, onto the ground. Simon was infuriated and wanted to kill his oldest brother, but kept his anger back. Alvin was gritting his bloodstained teeth at Simon, still coughing blood and struggling to get up from the ground. Simon saw this as an opportunity, so he walked over to Alvin, with his paws in fists and his feet stomping the ground. Alvin was scared, and attempted to run, but was stopped by Simon grabbing his sweater's collar.
Simon wanted to let out all his fury on Alvin, and kill him, but wasn't going to turn into a killer again. He stared down at Alvin, then used his other paw to grab his brother's small patch of hair and pulled it so hard, Alvin started to cry.
"You've got a lot of nerve, Alvin! I'm your brother for Pete's sake!", exclaimed Simon, pulling Alvin's hair more.
"You are stupid! You fell in love with that girl, causing our lives as indestructible creatures to end!", yelled Alvin.
"I hated that life! I finally, feel free; free from someone's control, and don't even tell me that you don't have a soft spot for the one named "Brittany", Alvin! I sensed it the day we met the girls, and you know that I had the gift to sense emotion in someone's mind!"
Alvin froze, knowing Simon was correct; he did have a small spot in his heart for Brittany, but not big enough that the Master could've ever sensed it.
"S-So what!?"
"You have no room to talk when it comes to love, Alvin! Don't ever forget that!"
Simon released Alvin from his grasp, causing Alvin to hit the ground, hard.
"You're right, Si. I had no right in doing what I did. I'm s-s-s...
"Go on. Say the "s" word."
"I'm sorry, okay. It's just the aftermath of the curse being broken."
"You are forgiven. You too, Theo."
Theodore smiled, feeling better, now that the violence was over, and Alvin and Simon had made amends. Simon suddenly panicked, having forgotten about Jeanette.
"Guys, I need that special medicine, so that Jeanette can be treated!" exclaimed Simon.
"Wait. She was shot by a silver arrow?" said Alvin.
"Yes! However, when she was shot, she wasn't fully back to normal! She'll die, unless I get her that medicine!"
"I'm not sure if father will be willing to let you use it on her, due to her being the cause of the Master's demise."
"That's why I'm going to sneak it from him, use just drop of it, and return it before he knew it was gone."
"How in the world are you going to sneak it past him? He guards it with his life."
"I don't know, but I have to do anything I can to get that medicine to Jeanette."
"I'll help you in any way I can, Si."
"Me too," said Theodore.
Simon smiled at his brothers.
"Let's go, guys."
Miss Miller lied Jeanette on the living room couch, pressurizing her wound with a towel, to stop the the bleeding. The arrow was still in Jeanette, because Miss Miller didn't want to risk Jeanette losing a lot of blood, but she knew as long as it remained in her, her death process was being sped up, because of the silver. The arrow had to come out, so Miss Miller prepared to extract the arrow from Jeanette.
"Brittany, I need you to hold the towel down on her wound, and Eleanor I need you to get something that Jeanette can bite."
"What? Why does she need something to bite on?"
"Just trust me, and get a rag or something."
Eleanor didn't argue, and ran into the kitchen to retrieve a rag. She spotted a rag on the kitchen table, so she grabbed it then ran back to Miss Miller.
"Here, Miss Miller," said Eleanor, handing the rag to Miss Miller.
"Thank you, Eleanor," replied Miss Miller.
Eleanor smiled then returned to her sister's aid, while Miss Miller told Jeanette to bite down on the rag. Jeanette did as instructed, knowing why Miss Miller was having her bite down on a rag. Since everything was in place, Miss Miller readied herself, and grabbed the arrow.
"Get ready, Brittany, because a lot of blood is about to come out of the wound."
"I'm ready, Miss Miller."
Miss Miller looked down at Jeanette, ready for the pain she was about to feel.
"Hold still, Jeanette. This is going to hurt."
Jeanette nodded her head, then Miss Miller carefully, started to extract the arrow.
Jeanette screamed, and bit down hard on the rag, starting to shed tears. Miss Miller hated seeing Jeanette like this, so she tugged the arrow gently, starting to see the arrow budge out of the wound. Jeanette was screaming and crying, and her paw's were in tight fists. Her breathing was heavy, and her heart was beating so fast, she thought it was going to jump out of her chest. The arrow was still in pretty far, so she toughened up, and readied herself for the next tug.
Miss Miller tugged the arrow again, and felt it loosen up. Miss Miller knew she could get it out with one final tug, so she gripped the arrow, and with one hard tug, the arrow was out. Blood poured out of the wound, so Brittany blocked the wound with the towel, to prevent any further bleeding. Jeanette was glad the arrow was out, despite the wound burning like fire, but she knew the pain was only going to get worse, as Miss Miller grabbed some hydrogen peroxide.
"This is going to sting, but only for a second. We need to get the wound cleaned up, so it doesn't get infected. I'm going to need you to hold still, Jeanette; can you do that for me?"
Jeanette was in too much pain to talk, so she just nodded her head.
Miss Miller opened the hydrogen peroxide bottle, and slowly tipped the bottle above the wound. A drop of hydrogen peroxide entered the wound, and immediately Jeanette tensed up, feeling like she was going to pass out, due to the liquid disinfecting the wound. The pain lasted for only a few seconds, then subsided, causing Jeanette to calm down. Now, all that they needed was the medicine Simon said he would retrieve, before they could bandage it, but where was he? Jeanette would only last a little longer, and if she had any chance of living, he would have to hurry, before it was too late.
Simon, Alvin, and Theodore stood before the house, hoping their father was resting which more than likely, wasn't. Alvin had developed a plan to get the medicine Simon needed; he would create a distraction, so that Simon could grab the medicine, and sneak out. It wasn't the best plan, but at the moment, it was all Simon could think of, so he didn't argue about anything and accepted it, because he knew Jeanette was in a fatal situation.
All three of them entered the dark house, lit only by candles and the fireplace, and looked to see if their father was sitting in his chair, in front of the fireplace; the one place that he never left, due to the medicine being in a porcelain jar, above the fireplace. Surprisingly, their father wasn't there, but something else disturbing replaced his spot; claw marks, dug into the arms of the chair, and his seal was in the middle of the seat, broke into two pieces.
The three were immediately freaked out by the sight, wondering what had happened to their father, until Simon remembered why they had come there in the first place. He shook his head clear of anything that could've happened to their father, and turned his attention to the porcelain jar above the fireplace.
"Guys, give me a boost," he said, snapping Alvin and Theodore out of their thoughts of their father.
"Alright, Si," replied Alvin. "Theo, I need you to boost me up, so I can boost Simon high enough to grab the jar."
"Okay, Alvin," replied Theodore, dropping to a push-up position.
Alvin stepped onto Theodore's back, then held out his paws.
"Come on, Si."
"Okay, Alvin."
Simon stepped one foot onto Alvin's paws, like he was climbing stairs, then placed his other foot into Alvin's paws. Alvin lifted Simon up to where he could grab the medicine, and quickly snatched the jar from above the fireplace.
"Okay, guys. Lower me, so I can get this medicine to Jeanette," Simon demanded.
Alvin and Theodore obeyed, and lowered Simon to the ground. Simon stepped down from on top of his brothers, and started to sprint toward the exit. Alvin and Theodore followed as fast as they could, but before Alvin and Theodore could make it out of the living room, Simon was already out the door.
Simon rushed next door, up the stone walkway, and opened the door to the Miller's residence. The sudden entrance startled Miss Miller, Brittany, and Eleanor, kneeling next to Jeanette. Simon breathed heavy as he handed Miss Miller the medicine, so that they could cure Jeanette. Jeanette looked at Simon with her eyes not even halfway open, and reached out her paw toward him, meaning she wanted him to comfort her. Simon didn't hesitate, and grabbed Jeanette's paw, which was cold as ice, meaning she was close to dying.
"Hurry! Her time is running out!", pleaded Simon.
Miss Miller quickly removed the cork from the bottle, and poured some of the medicine into Jeanette's wound. Jeanette tensed up then started to speak out words, but in a completely different language; almost demonic.
"Rockosa redae amusa rebora deliga!", said Jeanette, in a demonic tone.
Jeanette's eyes turned blood-red, and started to growl the sound of a Remagorah, and even started to rise into the air. Simon felt like he was in the middle of an exorcism, and was scared for Jeanette. What was causing this reaction? The horror show grew worse, as Jeanette's skin started to glow ancient markings, and the house was shaking like an earthquake. Brittany and Eleanor started to cry and even pray, but Simon knew well that whatever was causing this, was beyond God's power to control.
After five minutes of absolute horror, Jeanette descended to the couch, and unbelievably, her wound was completely healed; not even a scar was formed. Jeanette stared at everyone in confusion, due to all of them being stunned or afraid.
"What happened?", asked Jeanette.
Nobody could speak, except for Simon. "Something just manifested itself; something evil, like an entity or demon."
Jeanette started to get scared, so Simon gripped her paw, hoping to comfort her. Suddenly, Alvin and Theodore walked into the room, shocked at what they had just experienced.
"The words she spoke," said Alvin. "They were in a different language; the language of the Remagorah."
"You're saying she just spoke Damorganian language?", asked Simon.
"Yes. I don't know what she said, but whatever it was, it can't be good."
"I'm sure father has a book or something like that that can translate the words, and once we find out, we'll inform these four."
"I'm sure he does. Okay. Tomorrow, I'll look in the library."
Simon gripped Jeanette's paw. "We're going to get this figured out. Don't worry."
"As long as I have you, I will never be worried."
Simon smiled at Jeanette, then landed a small kiss on her soft lips.
"I'll see you soon. Get some rest, and if anything happens, let me know immediately."
"Okay, Simon."
Simon released his grip from Jeanette, then turned to Alvin and Theodore.
"Let's go. We have a lot of work to do."
Alvin and Theodore did as Simon instructed, and exited the house. On the way out of the house, Simon wondered if killing the Master was the cause, and that something more sinister was rising. He wouldn't know until he translated the words Jeanette spoke, and deep down, he didn't want to know what those words meant, because he already had a feeling what they meant, and it wasn't a good feeling.
