Chapter 38, I'll Always Be With You
They had made the decision to go back to Alderdale Hall. Thomas had a feeling Lucille would be found there. He had both Tyler and Elena come with him making sure this would end once and for all.
They made their way to the front doors. Thomas put his hand on the knob turning it. The door was unlocked as he opened it letting himself in. Elena and Tyler followed behind him. The place still looked the same. The temperature seemed to be much colder than he remembered. Normally, they would keep the place warm with having a fire always going.
Thomas led them to his room and through the hallways. "Where could she be?" Tyler asked Thomas.
"I'm not so sure, but I have a feeling she's here," Thomas said looking around. They went up to a small room. Some of his stuff was up there. There were a few books lying on the table. Elena noticed the red ring on the ground.
"Thomas," she said handing him the ring. He looked at it a moment examining it making sure it wasn't ruined. Then he took the rings sticking it in his pocket. Elena continued shinning her flashlight on anything she could find. A noise that sounded like something was moved startled her.
She stopped looking over at the direction of the noise. "What is it?" Thomas asked her.
She shushed him while she continued walking towards it. Out of no where, Lucille came out of the darkness holding onto a large kitchen knife charging after Elena. Thomas went after her grabbing her from behind. Lucille scratched one of his arms with the knife causing blood to drip.
Elena went after her trying to get the knife out of her hands. Tyler grabbed her from behind trying to keep her still. "You took him from me," Lucille yelled.
"I did no such thing. He made his own choices," Elena spat back. Lucille got her self out of Tyler's grip. She turned around stabbing him in the chest with her knife. "No," Elena screamed running towards him. He fell on the ground with the knife in his chest. Blood started to run down his chest as he leaned against the wall.
"We'll get help," Elena said crying. She called the police giving them the directions to Alderdale Hall. Lucille went up to her knocking the phone out of her hands causing her to let go of Tyler. Thomas grabbed her throwing her against the wall holding her in a tight grip. "You ruined my life and have done nothing but cause me harm. When I walk out of here I will live my life and forget this ever happened," he said raising his voice.
"Brother please," Lucille looked at him with tears in her eyes. Thomas showed no remorse this time. Now was his chance to kill her if he wanted. Instead he let her go leaving her there. He wouldn't sink down to her level. Tyler was barely holding on feeling very weak.
"Tyler stay with me please," Elena cried.
"I'm trying," he said faintly.
Thomas went over to try to help him until helped arrived. Police sirens were being heard from a distance. "Take care of her," Tyler looked at Thomas.
"No please," Elena said crying. Taking his last breath Tyler was gone. Elena bursted into tears crying holding on to his lifeless body. Lucille grabbed another sharp object walking towards them. Elena looked her direction noticing what was going on.
"You bitch," Elena yelled at her. She got up tackling her to the ground as she fought her with the sharp object. Lucille shoved Elena off her as she stood up.
Lucille grabbed Elena's neck trying to choke her. Thomas grabbed a board off the table hitting her in the back of the head knocking her unconscious. He went up to Elena hugging her in relief that she was alright. Cops all of a sudden busted in the place finding them in the small room.
"May I ask what happened?" He looked down noticing Tyler's dead body and Lucille knocked out on the floor.
"She was trying to attack us and killed him," Thomas answered him.
"I need some information on her," the cops said seeing the girl on the ground.
"Her name is Lucille. She needs help and is unstable to care for herself. If she's let lose she will hurt others," Thomas explained.
"Well then, looks like we know where to put her," he said escorting them out. More police had come in the room taking Tyler's body out of the room along with getting Lucille out as well. They went out front for more questioning before they were able to be left alone.
Thomas went to grab some things that were his taking it with him. Elena helped him as he carried his valuables in a suitcase. He felt relieved that he could leave and forget this place never looking back.
"Come back to America. We need to bury him in his hometown," she looked at Thomas.
"Alright," he looked at her. Maybe America could be where they could make their new home. Elena would help him with his papers making it to where he wasn't born from another time. There were ways around the system. No one would believe them if she told them. She knew plenty of people who could help her with getting Thomas a valid identity. Once that have that accomplished, he would be a legal citizen of the U.K. and the U.S.
They made it back to the place for now. Elena was still crying about loosing Tyler. Thomas wrapped his arms around her. "Everything will be alright," he said comforting her.
"I know. We will work on getting you legal in the morning. I know some people who can help you out," she looked at him.
"Legal?"
"Everyone has a social security number and different types of education now a days," she explained to him.
"I never thought I'd ever be given a second chance," he said embracing her.
"I never thought I'd fall in love with someone from a different time." He smiled a little at that then kissing her lips. This lasted a while until she pulled back to look at him. "You're free." She looked at him with loving eyes.
"It's because of you." He said meaning every word.
