Hey there, everyone. Thanx for the review Lellida, you were my first
reviewer. (
*bows in gratitude*
it has encouraged me to write this chapter. Yeah, Mary is the scientist and
previous nun. I love your bio, it rox.
Thanx a lot Vella (cool name) and Celtic Green, I really appreciate the reviews.
Sorry this took a while, I have been busy(( I swear, my teachers are evil! Evil!!)
Anyways, on with the story
*Types frantically to get chapter up*
Will rushed to the window, beaten to it only by Kirjava. He leaned over the edge precariously, dreading the sight that he thought he would see. He stood there, frozen with shock. Was he really seeing what was there?
At the far end of Mrs Coopers neatly mowed lawn, he could see his mother, very much alive. She was floating slightly above the ground, and was surrounded by.angels? He had seen angels before, powerful ones, but these far transcended those. They were a brilliant glowing white, and they stood in a circle around his mother. Finally, he got over his shock? //What were they doing to her? What if, what if they were some kind of spectres? //
With these thoughts in his head he raced downstairs, desperate to get to her before anything awful could happen.
He panted as he neared her, completely out of breath. Trying to reach, her, he realised that he couldn't. There was some kind of barrier that was stopping him. He lashed out at it in frustration, only to be sent flying across the lawn. His head hit a statue by the pond which then cracked open, slashing his face viciously. He collapsed, a distressed Kirjava by his side, into a near faint.
By this time, Mary had reached him. She tried to get to his mother, but was also thrown back. 'will, she whispered. Are you ok? Are you hurt?'
But will's reply caught in his throat, his eyes fixed on his mother.
One of the beings, a breathtakingly beautiful woman, had just laid her hand on his mother's head. 'Alice' she said, in a clear, musical voice, 'You must be strong. For will. One day, you will see John again, and you will be happy together again. For now, Be Healed!' as she said the last two words a brilliant burst of light shot from her hand and enveloped Alice.' Then the angels, because will was sure now that that was what they were, disappeared.
Alice fell gently to the ground, and this seemed to wake her from her stupor. 'will, darling?' she said softly. 'what are you doing at Mrs. Cooper's house? In fact, what are we doing out here' she said, smiling at him.
It was the first time will had seen a real smile on her face for years. Had the angel really healed her?
He smiled back at her, wincing as the movement of his face caused his cut to stretch painfully.
'will, are you hurt? My poor baby. Come here!'
will walked over to her quickly. He may be tired and bruised all over, and there may be a permanent scar on his cheek, but his mother was better now, and it was worth all the pain in the world.
~30 minutes later, and all have been introduced to each other~
so, alice, where are will and you going to be staying?' asked Mary, curiously.
'well,after what you've told me, I guess it isn't a good idea for us to go to our old house. I suppose it'll have to be a hotel.'
'of course not!' exclaimed Mary. 'you must stay at my house. It can hold the three of us till we all figure out our plans, can't it?'
'really, Mary?' asked will, smiling. The same bemused smile still hadn't left his face, and his hand was still holding his mothers.
'yes' she replied, smiling back at him.
And so, saying their thank you's and goodbyes to Mrs. Cooper, the three of them set off on their way again.
Sorry it's a bit short, there will be far longer chapters to come. Please, please review if you have read it, the shortest notes will do, I just want to know what you guys think of it.
NEXT CHAPTER PREVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!
Will and his mother may be reunited and happy again, but all three of them are wanted by the police, and must leave Oxford to take up new lives. How will they manage?
