I hope you like this chapter.....
I seriously cant wait for the new lost episode.....I wonder how much it will affect the plots I have planned for this story....
Anyway, enjoy!
Missy paced around the grass on the edge of the cliff.
She had been waiting for over an hour and still no sign of Locke or Sawyer.
She was getting very impatient. She was wasting valuable time. Time she could be spending, trying to find Richard.
Suddenly she jumped as she heard the ladder creak behind her and she turned to see Locke coming up over the edge.
He hauled himself up and stared at Missy, his face set into a grimace.
"Um, s-shall I come down there with you?" she mumbled, avoiding Locke's fearsome gaze.
"No, I don't think that'll be necessary Missy," he said, taking a step towards her.
Missy breathed and forced a smile. "Is S-Sawyer coming back up then?"
Locke shook his head, but did not smile back. "No, James will be staying with me," he said walking towards her.
Missy stumbled back, and began to tremble. "Oh, right shall I just wait up here then....?" she asked, trying to keep calm.
"No, I think it's best if you weren't here at all," Locke stated simply.
"What?" said Missy suddenly.
"I think it's best if you weren't here to disturb us.....to disturb my plans...." said Locke advancing on her.
Missy stumbled quickly backwards. Her breath catching in her throat.
"If y-you w-want," said Missy shaking with fear, her voice cracking, "I-I c-can just go.....I'll leave."
"No Missy," said Locke laughing dangerously, "that's not what I'm saying....you know that."
Missy shook violently as the man walked towards her, evil in his eyes.
He wanted to kill her.
Scrambling backwards she tripped and fell, her back hitting the grassy floor.
She gazed up wide eyed and placed a hand over her stomach, protecting her unborn child.
She couldn't scream.
She knew this was the end. Sawyer couldn't save her.
Locke moved forwards pulling a knife from his belt.
Missy knew there was nothing she could do.
She was going to die. By his hand.
She closed her eyes.
Richard stood in the line of trees, listening to Missy and Locke's conversation.
His mind was in a daze.
Why did this impostor want him to see these things?
He watched as Locke began to advance on Missy.
His heart was pounding.
He saw her fall.
He saw Locke reach for the knife.
Wait, something here wasn't right.
His breath caught in his throat.
Missy placed a hand to her stomach.
Protecting their baby.
His baby.
This was no illusion.
This was really her.
Missy waited for the blow but it never came.
She peered through squinted eyes, and gasped as she saw a man with jet black hair and muscular physique standing between her and Locke. His arms outstretched, protecting her.
"Hello Richard," said Locke slowly. "I guessed you'd come back."
Missy's heart thumped in her chest as she breathed heavily watching the two men.
It was him. It was Richard. The man she loved.
"Stay away from her," warned Richard, staring daggers at Locke his fists balled up angrily at his sides.
"I can't do that Richard," said Locke shrugging, "she needs to die."
Missy gulped and clutched at her stomach. She shook with fear.
"Well you're going to have to go through me first," snarled Richard.
Locke chuckled. "Well that puts me in a bit of a predicament doesn't it Richard," said Locke, "Because you know that I need you for my plans."
Missy heard Richard growl as he stared at Locke.
"Fine," said Locke shaking his head," have it your way."
Missy watched as there was a sudden flash of light, and right before her eyes, standing in the place of John Locke was a pillar of black smoke.
Richard suddenly turned to her, grabbed her hand and tugged her from the ground and into the tree line. "RUN!" he yelled, pulling Missy behind him.
Missy ran as fast as she could, weaving in and out of the trees, the black smoke close behind them. She could hear its loud, clicks and whirrs amongst the roars it was making.
Fear shot through her, adding to the adrenaline that flowed through her veins.
Missy screamed as she tripped once again, but Richard, still holding her hand tightly, hauled her from the ground.
They hurried as fast as their legs could carry them, but the smoke was faster, and in the blink of an eye, it soared around them.
Richard clutched Missy tightly to him and the smoke encircled both of them, wrapping itself closer and closer.
Missy trembled with fear as Richard wrapped his arms around her and watched the billowing monster.
Suddenly the smoke attacked, sending the pair flying onto the ground. Missy rolling away from Richard.
She screamed in fear as it advanced on her.
She was out in the open, with no way of escaping.
Suddenly, through the roars of the monster a voice was heard. The voice of a child.
Missy looked up to see a blonde boy standing before her. His arm outstretched towards the smoke, causing it to halt in its murder.
"Leave her," said the young boy. "You will not harm her. You have to obey the rules."
The smoke weaved back and forth for a moment as if contemplating this, before disappearing through the trees, until its roars were nothing but a whisper on the breeze.
Missy stared at the spot it had disappeared from before gazing back towards the boy. But he was gone.
Just gone.
Like he had never been there in the first place.
Hope that was alright.....
