Chapter 3: Shelter for the Night

The clouds rolled in and the sky became completely dark in a few minutes. Thunder became evident as it roared and the clouds began to pour rain. The rain drops were freezing cold as they hit Marguerite and Roxton.

"Hurry up we better find shelter fast," called Roxton.

"Good idea," answered Marguerite.

"There's a cave not far ahead we can take shelter in there until the storm pasts." yelled Roxton as he took Marguerite's hand into his and ran toward the cave that was not far ahead.

The cave was soon visible in sight as the two ran into the cave. The couple were soaking wet as they entered the cave. Marguerite dropped the picnic basket and blanket onto the cave floor.

"I'll build a fire so we can dry off," said Roxton. He started to gather some twigs and dry leaves in the cave as he started a fire.

Marguerite was still standing in the corner while Roxton was started the fire. In a few minutes there was a small fire. Marguerite walked a little closer and sat near the fire. Roxton took off his shirt and and hung it to dry. Marguerite was still in her soaking wet clothes. She felt her head and it was a bit warm but she didn't pay any attention to it. Roxton moved closer to her and placed the blanket over her shoulders and rubbed her warm. Marguerite in turn, leaned her head on his shoulder as she fell into a deep sleep.

"Come on Adrienne where's your sense of adventure."

"I guess your right I would like a new dress with those o so beautiful jewels I saw in the store the other day." Adrienne answered with a giggle.

"Yes I think I am in the mood for some nice precious diamonds and such. But you know gems would also satisfy my desire." Added Marguerite as she walked down the cold dark alley with Adrienne.

The two were walking down and enjoying their conversations and planning what they should do in the future. Suddenly a fast black car drove up right besides them and pulled Adrienne in quickly and slammed the door shut. Marguerite ran into the darkness. She heard Adrienne's screams and her shouts. She ran until she couldn't run anymore and the car was lost from her sight forever along with Adrienne. Her best friend gone and there was nothing she could do about it. She sunk to her knees and her world became black.

Marguerite woke up very abruptly and held her face in her hands just thinking about her dream.It was my fault I let them take her, they must've thought she was me, and now I'll never see her again. They wanted me... A tear ran down Marguerite's cheek but she quickly wiped it away as soon as it had fallen. Roxton was still asleep by the looks of it. Marguerite stood up and went out for a walk. She clutched her forehead her head hurting her more than ever with a painful migraine. The sun was still not yet out it was still early morning and the weather was cold. She pulled the blanket closer and tighter to her body trying to keep warm.

Roxton was awake and had been since Marguerite had woken up with a stir. He peeked through a small opening in his eyelids as he saw Marguerite's sad and hurt expression on her face and as she had wiped away the tear fallen from her face. He was battling with his internal feelings if he should comfort her or give her her space. Then before he could react she rose and started to walk out. He watched her walk away from him and for a moment a freezing coldness surrounded him as her warmth left the comfort of his arms. Roxton waited for a few moments before going after Marguerite and see what he could do.

Marguerite started to walk farther into the forest, her headache getting more intense and the world around her spinning more fiercely. She began to ran like in her dream then she stopped. A figure in a cloak was only a few feet from her. As the figure came closer she unveiled her hood covering her face. It was Adrienne, on the plateau, just standing right in front of her all these years.

"Adrienne?" whispered Marguerite before she fainted to the ground.
