Vincent walked through the woods, wearing an expression on his face that seemed to tell he was worried. Where had Valeska gone? She couldn't have gone that far... Vincent searched through the forest in confusion.
Vincent walked a little bit closer towards the oak tree and found to his suprise the earth heaved upwards, as if someone had dug up a hole to unearth something from the ground. His eyebrows rose high up in suprise. Someone has definitely come here before him.
"Sir?" spoke an unfamiliar voice spoke behind him and he jumped, whirling around to see someone exactly like the woman Alaerda Herald looked back at him with a smile. Except the woman was dressed differently from the last time he had looked.
What did she want? Vincent thought, this time irritation rising in his eyes. This woman had just ruined his life! Wasn't it enough?
"Hello! Oh dear. You seem to know me. Have you, by any chance, met my twin sister, sir?" the woman continued to say and smiled. Vincent narrowed his eyes suspiciously at the woman. Twin sister? What did she mean?
"I-I believe I have already met you, Ms. Herald," Vincent said and the woman smiled, a smile that seemed to say he was wrong.
"No, we haven't met, Mr.…?" the woman spoke and Vincent gave her a questioning look. "Vincent Crosfolt."
"Well, Mr. Crosfolt, I think we had a bit of a mix-up. My name is Althea Herald!" the woman, Althea Herald, spoke with a soft giggle. Vincent's eyes widened in suprise and he immediately smiled. So, this woman was Alaerda Herald's sister. And now he could see why. She looked different from her sister, even though she looked alike. Althea Herald looked more…sympathetic.
"Um… can I help you, Ms. Herald?" Vincent spoke, a natural smile weaving its way up his lips.
"In fact, yes! My sister has… well… let's just say she ran away. I'm going after her and I came upon this village... or woods," Ms. Herald spoke and smiled weakly now.
"I've met your sister, she's in the village..." Vincent spoke, also smiling weakly with her.
"Oh that's wonderful. Thank you, Mr. Crosfolt," Ms. Herald said and took Vincent's hand, shaking it, "I hope you find your way through this frightening woods. Unless you are finding something?"
"I just lost something," Vincent lied, smiling quickly. Ms. Herald raised an eyebrow but nodded anyway.
Ms. Herald turned to go but just when Vincent had looked away as well, her footsteps stopped. She looked at Vincent's eyes suddenly with piercing eyes and smiled, a smiled that spread shivers down his spine. Ms. Herald took a step forward and opened her lips. "Watch your back, Mr.Crosfolt."
"W-What?" Vincent said, startled. But what he saw last was the curl of an evil smile and heard a scream as everything went... black.
A/N: Mwhahahaha! MWHAHAHAHAHA! I feel evil, lol. OwO;; I hope you like this chapter and please review! Next chapter will be of Valeska and Emily's meeting:D
