Chapter 4
Somewhere deep in an abandoned warehouse a solitary figure laid curled upon
a hard cement floor.
Her body hidden in shadow, but for a slither of light that illuminated her
pale face; revealing the dried blood upon her cheek.
Nearby, a door swung shut. Echoing through the room. A larger figure
entered, walking towards the woman on the floor. His footsteps were clumsy
as he swayed from side to side, coming to a halt beside her. Drunkenly he
dropped to his knees, the bottle in his hand smashing to the floor with
him.
He placed a heavy hand on her head and gently tucked a few stray hairs away
from her face. His hand then proceeded down her face and came to rest
beneath her chin.
He spoke gruffly but the alcohol circulating within his blood caused his
words to become slurred.
"Soon my love, soon. When you wake up we'll go away together and live
together away from this world away from Him!" At the thought of him the
crouching figure threw the empty bottle against the far wall.
He swayed as he stood, and almost tripping over the woman's body, he headed
towards the door. Before reaching it he turned to her again and in almost
a whisper he spoke again.
"Soon, very soon. Away from Him. Away from him."
He turned and left the room, still repeating the words to himself.
Far away a man stood in front of a house and silently called out her name.
A set of piercing blue eyes in the centre of the room opened and searched
for the man that held the matching pair.

So, so, so sorry it took so long but I kind of had a writers block but I'm
over that now and hopefully I will b getting the next chapters written a
lot sooner than this one was.
Please review, I love to hear what you think.
