A.N. Hehehe. Like my Sweeney Todd reference in ch. 4? :3 Here's chapter 5!

Tears streaming down her face, Julia ran. Again. She ran towards the beaches. And, then she killed. She didn't even remember it. Driven by bloodlust and pain, she murdered four men. She threw the bodies over the edge up at Widow's Hill.

And no one even knew. Julia was slowly going insane. She felt it. And she hated it. She wanted to hate Barnabas for making her feel this way. But… She couldn't. The love she felt for that man prevented her from hating him. And she hated that.

So, she concocted a plan.

Barnabas was lost and confused. He had lied to Julia. He loved Victoria… Josette. But, he knew he felt something for Julia also. He knew it every time he thought about her and he got that tight feeling in the pit of his stomach. He had to make this right. But he had absolutely no idea how.

He had to find her. And talk to her. Before she did something she would regret.

After her murdering spree, an exhausted Julia trudged her way, regrettably, back to the hotel. She unlocked her door and ripped her clothes off, anxious to shower. She allowed the steam to settle over her body, relaxing her muscles. She washed her hair and watched as the blood rolled down her stomach and thighs and pooled in the bottom of the tub.

After her shower, Julia stepped out of the shower and wrapped herself up in a towel and stepped into the room. On the bed, she noticed, was a bag that had not been there before. She opened the bag, and found a note. It read;

Didn't think you had clothes to change into. Got these for you. Hope that they're to your liking. Need to talk with you soon, Dr. Hoffman. Until then,
B.

"HA!" she exclaimed. She was touched that he had brought her clothes, and realized that, in fact, she had none. She pulled out a night dress and slipped it on and crawled into bed. She dreamt of him that night. Shocking, no?

At about 9 am, however, she awoke with a gasp. And she burst into tears. She realized what had to be done. Throwing on a black flowing skirt and a tight corset-like top, Julia ran from the hotel, sticking to the shadows. Then she ran through the dark forest that led to Widow's Hill.

"I can't live without him, I can't be happy. I know he'll never love me, and I know I'll always yearn for him. This… This is the only way I can be free of him. I can do this."

And she stepped into the direct sunlight.

AHAAAAAA. Cliff hanger. (: R/R!
