Hay guys i am so sorry for the long wait, uni work has been dreadful but got a long break from it so im gonna try and upload a new chapter every 2-3 days just to get the story finished.
I've taken this kind of in a different direction, which i actually thought that the series might take but it hasn't =[ Please tell me what you think, and this chapters kinda short but that cause i will be uploadin every 2 days or so, so cant make em too long
Anyway sanctuary doesnt belong to me, if it did Amanda Tappings accent would be a better british one =] (I mean i love her but i think she needs help with the accent)
Will knew before he asked, he could tell from the slight shift in her body and the quickening of her pulse, he always automatically knew things, things that no one else could have guessed even the great Helen Magnus.
His feet were moving before she had even finished her sentence, Will was at the edge of the roof before Ashley's body had even leapt from the roof, as she fell he grabbed her arm and was able to stop her fall.
"Agh Ashley" Will chocked out, Ashley was heavy, all muscle, and Will, well was not, he couldn't hold her much longer, "Ash come on i need you to grab my arm and climb"
Ashley's face turned towards him but it was not Ashley that was shining through those eyes "you cannot save her Will, she must die if this world is to live"
"No, I don't believe that" Will replied "I don't understand why is Ashley's life so unimportant and expendable to you"
"She is the Key William, she is the key to your destruction" the voice said at that moment the entity inside Ashley locked vision with Will and images were shown to him that will haunt his dreams for years to come, Los Angeles the city that never sleeps desolate and destroyed, London normally a hive of activity deserted and crumbling and Mumbai normally filled with people was ravaged by fire. Images like these from major city across the world flashed before his eyes as he held Ashley's arm while wind whipped at their faces.
Her voice brought Will out of the vision, "Would you risk all that for the faith you place in this women?" at this Will realised he had to think, really think, if he saved Ashley now and she did cause all that destruction could he live knowing he could have stopped it but deep down in the very bowels of his soul he knew that this was wrong, that the Ashley he knew would never, could never hurt people in such a manner. Sure she had killed before and was more than capable of killing again but he had seen the good in her, the guilt she feels when things happen that were not meant to, he knew her heart and knew that no matter what it was not Ashley that caused the disaster he had just seen before his eyes.
"Yes" Will said pure and simple.
Ashley's face showed a look of pure surprise, clearly the entity inside Ashley had underestimated Will's feelings for her or perhaps underestimated Will, he was not sure how he felt about that. Ashley closed her eyes and went limp; she slipped further from Will's grip.
"ASHLEY!!" Will yelled willing her to awake, all he could think was 'please wake up I need you' her arm slipped a little more from his grasp "ASHLEY!, PLEASE WAKE UP I NEED YOU TO WAKE UP!!!" he knew it was no use her body seemed almost dead but he could see her breathing she just wouldn't wake.
"Ashley please, please wake up I need you, I can't do this without you, I lo..." but before Will could say anything more her arm slipped from his grasp and she tumbled towards the ground below.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" Will screamed, just then it was almost like he was seeing everything all at once, every molecule every little action and the reaction that it caused.
If he could shift the molecules in the air enough to slow her decent she would survive the fall, but all he could think was 'what are you talking about Will you don't have that kind of power you're a human not an abnormal, or am I?' he thought 'why was I chosen for this job? Ok I'm intelligent but there are many others Magnus could have chosen that would have done this job ten times better than I have been doing. Ashley said, she told me that Magnus knows everything there is to know about me. Why? What did she see in me that made her keep such a close watch on me?' that's when Will knew without hesitation or deviation he was an abnormal and he didn't know how or why, those questions would have to wait all her could concentrate on right now was saving Ashley.
Will closed his eyes and imagined the molecules around Ashley's body slowly solidifying and keeping her safe, he felt a tug from deep inside like so kind of power had been released. Will opened his eyes and looked over the wall of the sanctuary, what he saw made his heart skip a beat. Ashley was suspended in midair on top of what appeared to be a cloud, 'okay not exactly what I was thinking but it works' just then Helen, John and Henry burst through the door to the roof.
"Stay Back" Will shouted
"Where's Ashley?" Helen asked
"Errmm well wait a second" Will turned around and faced the world, he looked down at Ashley and began to imagine the cloud rising towards him bringing Ashley with it, he moved his hands upwards, almost as if he was pushing the cloud upwards, as he did so it began to rise until it reached the roof. At this everyone gasped, Will lifted Ashley from the cloud and cradled her in his arms while doing so he closed his eyes and imagined the cloud dissipating, when he opened them it had gone.
He turned to face those he had come to know as family, everyone just stared at each other perhaps unsure of what to say, Helen began to speak when everyone heard a gasp. Will looked down at the women in his arms, Ashley had taken a breathe and was waking from her slumber.
She opened her eyes and looked into Will's "Will" Ashley said with a shaky voice
"Yeah, Ash it's me" Ashley stared into Will's eyes for a moment longer, almost as if she was looking into his soul to be sure that it was in fact Will she was looking at, then a smile appeared on her face and she sunk into Will's chest holding him tight.
"Perhaps we should all retreat back into the house, the air is growing cold" Helen said as she turned and walked back into their home.
So what did you think????
