This Chapter was a lot quicker to write than I thought it would be. Enjoy and please Review!Ch 21
Emily looked up as she felt someone use. "Move!" someone screamed. She saw the beams fall and dove under the water. She missed it by an inch, but her foot got caught in-between two beams. It pulled her down with it as she struggled to get free. She saw a boy at the bottom of the pool and recognized him immediately as her midnight visitor.
Stop struggling and let the water take you, his voice commanded. She tried to shield him out of her mind but he was already too deep inside of it.
No! she responded with force of power. He flinched but sat next to her.
I wish it didn't have to be this way, he told her. We would have been a great pair the two of us. Our powers together could have ruled this world forever.
Using kills you moron, she insulted. You' re a fuckin' dumb ass if you want to use it to that extreme.
You have vicious attitudes when you die. They say you see the people you know who are dead when you die. What do you think daddy will say to his little girl's last words were swears? Emily used her power to get free but he sent an attack at her which caused her to stop moving.
What do you want? She asked.
Your darling brother Caleb went back on his word. I told him I would kill everyone he loved if he didn't oblige to my demands. I should have started with Sarah, but this is so much better. As much as he loves Sarah you're much more important. He let you fall once and now he's going to let you di…
How do you know about my birthday? He kissed her forehead.
I've been visiting your mind ever since I saw you at your father's funeral. You're so much easier to reach than Sarah was because you believe in the powers we have, unlike Sarah… or at least how she used to think. Reid softened you up as well with his dirty little secret. After that your mind was an open book. Besides when you're dead all the sons will want to help brother dearest take revenge. He looked at her and smiled as she began to feel the need for air. I'll have fun tearing Reid to pieces since he'll be the first to come after me due to his love for you. Emily would have began crying if she wasn't underwater. She looked to the surface of the pool waiting for a miracle to happen… or for the Angel of Death to come and take her to the finally place of rest.
"Move!" Reid yelled when Emily looked up. The beam missed her but it caught her foot.
"Emily!" Carter called. Keith went to dive in, but coach stopped him.
"We don't know if it's going to collapse further," he told them.
"MY SISTER IS DOWN THERE!" Caleb screamed at the top of his lunges. "SHE IS NOT A SCARFICE!" He went to jump in but Provost Higgins stopped him.
"We must decided where it will the safest to retrieve her," Provost Higgins said. Pogue went to fetch her but the team pushed him and the other friends back into the wall. Reid sneaked around them and dove into the water. He saw Emily at the bottom of the pool with a too familiar face. Emily didn't move which worried Reid. Chase gave him a satisfied smile as he disappeared. Emily acted as though she woke from a dream. She immediately pulled her foot. She tried to use her powers, but they didn't work.
She mouthed, I don't want it to end.
It's not, Reid mouthed back. The two of them worked fiercely to free her foot. They finally did and Emily started to swim. She reached for his hand but her eyes closed and she fell backwards towards the floor. Reid put an arm around her waist and kicked off from the floor. He didn't stop kicking until he reached the surface.
"She needs help!" he yelled as he swam to the edge of the pool. Pogue and Tyler lifted her limp body onto the floor. Reid climbed out of the pool as the two began to perform mouth. Caleb put an arm around Reid and Reid felt the same way. If they had been honest this wouldn't of happened.
"She not responding!" Tyler cried out. He looked like he was about to cry. Pogue gave her another ten pump and Tyler then breathed into her.
"Emily don't leave," Kelly begged tears in her eyes. Carter grabbed her and she sobbed into his shirt. She fell to her knees as someone called nine one one.
"She's a fighter," Carter told the girl rocking her back and forth. "She'll come back to us… she has to."
Emily was in her house on the couch. She rose and walked around confused. She then realized her house was decorated like it had been for her thirteenth birthday. She looked down at herself and saw she wore a white gown that looked familiar. The house was empty except for a girl that resembled Emily. Emily looked closer to see the little girl was her at her thirteenth birthday. Emily followed the girl outside and saw her sit with the boys. She then put three bowls of candy in the middle of them as a rock fell from the sky.
"It started here," a man said beside her. Emily looked to see her father next to her. It was before the power consumed him and when he pulled off thirty three instead of thirty eight. "This is where your journey began."
"Daddy?" The man took her hands and she looked into the eyes that only belonged to her father. She threw her arms around him and hugged him. "Oh dad I've missed you so much. I knew you could beat the aging. Caleb told me this awful lie that you were dead and that you willed him…"
"That was all true sweetheart," he told her gently. They sat on back door step. Emily looked at him.
"I'm dead aren't I?" she asked.
"That depends on your brothers," he replied with a small smile. "Just like it did on your birthday. If you hadn't been caught you would have been killed on impact due to the fact you tried to fight getting your powers. Your life was in their hands then, and it is again now."
"I don't like not being in control," Emily admitted. Her father laughed.
"I felt the same way your age. Matthew Garwin was a week older than me. He was therefore the oldest of the four of us and I had to obey him. Your brother takes after him and Reid takes after myself. I've noticed he hasn't used as much since you've moved back."
"You've been watching me?"
"Ever since I was put in that horrid house that our ancestors first lived in, I've been able to watch you. I've always been with you." There was a clash of lightning as the girl headed back to the house. Emily watched in horrid as she saw Caleb battling to keep her on the ground. A lightning bolt almost hit her and her dad.
"It didn't hit over here," Emily reminded her father.
"No. Unlike this past night your brothers have won the battle to allow you to go back. Before you go I must tell you something. The fifth bloodline lives. The boys found out the day before I died. Sarah took it upon herself to figure out our secret without help from Caleb." Another thunderbolt hit. Her father looked at her in a panic.
"Dad just tell me the entire truth."
"I can't it seems your brothers are having trouble bring you back. Follow Sarah steps and then go to the book. Your brothers tried to keep you away from him for your own safety. They lied to keep you safe. The bracelet kept you safe from the harm the night you had him break in."
"Dad give me a name!"
"They won't allow it!"
"Whose they?" Emily looked around and saw men dressed in different time period clothing. They looked like her brothers and Emily realized they were the sons from the past.
"William you have to let her go," Emily's grandfather told his son.
"Grampy?" The man looked up at her.
"Yes it's me my dear. There are so many things I've wanted to tell you all these years. I sorry for what happened. I'm so proud of you for becoming the women and daughter of Ipswich that you are."
"Never be sorry," Emily said in tears. She kissed her grandfather's cheek. "You gave me the best gift. You allowed me to understand what Caleb and my three other brothers went through. You made me apart of them and they became apart of me." Her father hugged her as she saw her younger self rise in the air.
"It's time to go back, pumpkin. I love you and Caleb and your mother, but you have to go. Remember that we are always with our descents not mater what family they are from." She felt herself begin to rise. She gave her dad one last hug and then allowed herself to rise.
"I never gave up hope for you," she yelled to her father
"I know," he answered. "And I never gave up hope for you and Reid. You can change him. Lord knows Mrs. Garwin changed Matthew to become the leader of us a few days before he ascended." Emily looked at him and then up at the sky. She embraced the lightning that struck her.
