The Prisoner and the Paper Planes
Chapter 8
((Alfred's POV))
I tried to remain calm in my last moments. Sure, I could hardly make out any shapes but I could hear the screaming of people around me and I could hear as they hit the walls, begging for mercy. I crawled my way around people until I finally hit the back wall of the room. I already knew how they were gonna kill us, it was obvious.
They planned on killing us with gas...
It would be a slow, painful death. I was certain of it. However, I was the only one who wasn't screaming. I had leaned against the wall and I tried to make sure I had no regrets left. At first, I smiled, because I didn't have any. Then, all of a sudden it seemed like reality smacked me in the face because there was something I still wanted to do.
I still wanted to see that girl. She made me so happy but there was something that still needed to be answered. I still didn't know the girl's name.
Tears started blurring my vision, as the gas started to take effect and people started coughing. In a matter of minutes, the room was filled with coughs instead of screaming. I must say that I prefer the coughing over the screaming.
Then, I could see shapes falling to the floor. People were dying all around me, in this quiet space. When the others realized this, they began screaming again with their hoarse voices. I covered my ears, but it didn't do any help. I suddenly leaned forward as a big coughing fit started happening to me. My eyes were tightly clenched shut, and when I opened them, they widened.
Blood was on my hand and on the floor. I started trembling ,because I knew there was no way I was getting out. I couldn't possibly get out. If I did, I would probably end up dying anyway.
I saw something tumble out of my pocket, and I glanced over at it as I fell to the floor,coughing. It was the last letter that girl gave to me. Right there, it was just staring me in the face, taunting me to reach for it. I noticed something on the back that I hadn't realized before.
With my eyes losing vision very fast, I reached for the paper and smoothed it out so I could read the words on the back.
Each second was..strained...draining me...I could...hardly make out...the letters...of the word...I gripped...at my throat...oxygen...leaving quickly...as I read...the last word...I would ever...see...
K...Kat...y-yu...sha...
Alfred's world went to black after that. Our poor hero had sadly fallen. It's a shame how this story had to end for him. But do not worry, my dear readers, the story doesn't end there. After all, there are always two sides to every story, and we've yet to dive into to the girl's part of the story. Oh yes, the girl's story. 'Wait!' you may ask. 'The girl's story? But she left him! How does she have a story?'
Everyone has there part in a story, whether it be the villain or the damsel in distress. And let me tell you, that girl didn't just leave him. No, it's much more complex then that. But that's for another chapter, my dear readers. For now, we must say goodbye to our beloved Alfred and head on to a new side of this story.
The side of Katyusha's story.
