Taken In Again
Disclaimer: It's a fan fiction, what do you expect? I own whatever wasn't invented already.
Henry Jekyll suffered as the horrid potion burned his throat. He turned red, and smoke fumed off his sweaty body. The old wooden floor released pain when coming in contact with his knees; splinters and exposed nails hit the doctor's flesh. In a matter of time, Edward Hyde appeared standing and heaving in the dark apartment of London.
Screams and shrieks came from the terrorized civilians of England's ruined city. It felt like almost yesterday when the Martians attacked London and the league fought them off.
From the viewpoint upon the rooftops, Alisha Dover watched intently as Edward passed screaming men, women and children, pushing them aside. The many lights from down below blinded her; streetlamps, shop lights, and others flashed onward, however any intentional blinding was caused to the witch, not the beast.
To try to catch up with Edward, Alisha followed on top of the rooftops, jumping from one to the other. How she could jump from rooftop to rooftop without difficulty she, nor did anybody else that noticed her, didn't know.
It was fast. It was Alisha and Edward, parallel to one another. Edward down below, Alisha on top.
Edward Hyde entered a warehouse, full of rustic metal and scraps of plastic and other material. Tearing everything in his way to shreds, he made his way to the top of the non-roofed building, once again, ruined by the Martians once before.
Edward jumped to the roof of a theatre, holding onto the decorative gargoyles in a 'King-Kong' like manner. The beast roared, and those of who was left in the locale (being far from the base of town and more in the less populated areas), shrieked in fright as they saw the two ton monster emerge from their views.
"Edward!" Alisha yelled at the top of her lungs from another rooftop. When the brute heard and recognized her voice, he stopped roaring, and stared into the icy blue eyes that glared through his skin.
Edward Hyde jumped two buildings, landing parallel to Alisha. The witch proceeded on her broomstick to meet the brute, and keep him from falling off the edge after callously transforming back into the small and meek form of Dr. Henry Jekyll.

"OH!"
Alisha woke up in her cabin, breathing heavily and looking around frantically. After realizing it was only a dream she had, the witch sighed, closed her eyes, and plopped back onto her bed…not realizing it was really more than just a dream.
