Chapter 4: Rescue
"Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh, gosh GOSH! Are you okay? Have you broken anything? We need to take you to Kenspeckle and fast!" Alice groaned and rolled over to the side, can't this woman leave her alone?!
"Does it hurt? You need to tell me if it hurts." Suddenly Alice was lifted up of the ground, her eyes flew open as she jumped up and landed back on the safety of the ground.
"Whoa" Alice muttered, swaying slightly. Alice looked up to see the dark blue haired woman looking at her, as if prepared to catch Alice if she fell.
"Are you alright?" Alice was slightly irritated, but smiled warmly at her,
"Yes I am, I feel perfectly fine" She limped over to the brick, leaning against the wall she let out a happy sigh.
"I'm guessing that was sarcasm." The woman walked up towards her, allowing Alice to give her weight over.
"Of course it was! I just smashed my body against a window and fell off a two story-high building! If anyone is fine after that, let me know." The woman looked down at her feet,
"Sorry, I'm not so good at this whole rescuing thing" Alice felt bad for the woman, she didn't mean to snap at her, Alice spoke in a lighter, friendly tone,
"What do you mean by rescue? Who are you?" The woman's head pricked up,
"Valkyrie reported that Dusk managed to get her little sister, I'm guessing that's you right? Anyway it's better we got you away from him, he would have ripped you to shreds" The woman chatted on for awhile so Alice decided not to listen, Dusk told her about how Stephanie chose a name to stay in control and that she chose Valkyrie Cain, does that mean she should chose a name? Most people by now should know her name was Alice anyway, but a new name would be handy. What about Dusk though? He's surely not evil, obviously on the different side to everyone else, but not evil. Would he have ripped her to shreds? Alice shivered, she just couldn't imagine it. The woman let out a small cough and Alice went back to the real world.
"Sorry, what did you say?" Alice asked, the woman didn't sigh and say how rude it was that she didn't listen like her old teachers, instead she just remained bubbly and replied,
"Oh, I said my name was Roxy Harlster, you don't listen much, do you?" Alice laughed,
"Now you see why people don't really like me." They were at the brick building door now, Alice halted to a stop but Roxy kept on walking until she realized Alice wasn't following, she spun around, looking at Alice she said,
"Are you not coming? We need to heal you up." Alice bit her lip and looked down at her sandals, kicking a piece of rock she spoke in a whisper,
"This is my home now, well temporary home. Dusk was the only one who trusted me, Dusk was the only one who told me about magic. I trust him." Roxy looked at Alice, shaking her head,
"But you have to come, he's evil kiddo" Alice heart beated faster, her dad always called her kiddo, whenever she was upset, he would always hug her, tell a lame joke which would make her laugh and he would say,
"Alright kiddo, lets dance!" Alice sighed, she did miss her family, Alice spoke in a low tone, still not looking at Roxy,
"Just trust me, I'll be fine." No-one spoke for a minute, but to Alice it seemed like a decade, Alice risked a glance at Roxy to see she was mirroring Alice's look, biting her lip,
"Alright kiddo, he may be alright after all, but meet me here tomorrow night, oh and just incase keep this." Roxy put something in her hand, Alice clenched it tight and looked up to see Roxy, but instead only saw a gleam of a glistering star in the night sky.
