Alfred's thoughts- blahblah
Billy-"halbhalb"
Note: I forgot to put it in previous chapters, but I wanted to address the matter of Billy's eyes. They are supposed to be dark blue with even darker blue rings around the pupils. Have you seen Hellsing Ultimate? Or any of those other anime that have bizarre eyes with those rings in them? That's what his eyes look like.
Disclaimer- GO AWAY!
The young boy let out a strangled sob as he dashed through the forest. Alfred could feel it-feel the night reaching out for him with cold dead hands. The mud beneath his bare feet sucked and pulled as if to drag him under the brackish fluid. He saw a fire between a gap in the snarled trees and he made a break for it. Pushing the leaves and thorns away as he walked towards the campfire. There was a figure hunched over the fire who seemed to be roasting something. Billy turned with his trademark grin and offered something to him on a plate. A smell reached his nose that made him skid to a halt and gag. It was the smell of burning flesh. It was Arthur.
He bolted upright with a scream. His knuckles had turned white from his death grip on the white sheets of his bed.
"Did you have another nightmare, Alfred?"
Terrified blue eyes darted over to Billy who was sitting on the windowsill with his feet dangling out the window. The moonlight just intensified the glow of his eyes and sharp teeth.
Alfred was washing clothes in a bucket outside. He looked up from the soapy water to Billy who was hanging upside from a tree branch right above him.
"What are you doing up there?" he hissed-mindful of the servants someways off who gave him weird looks ever so often.
"Calm down squirt. The worms over there are starting to think you're crazy talking to a tree."
"..."
Alfred didn't like the way that Billy referred to other people-as if they were dirt.
It had been a few months since Billy had told him that he wanted to kill England.
England had left for his homeland three weeks ago-and just in time.
Billy was starting to grow transparent...
Ever since Billy's image began to fade he had been getting headaches. REALLY bad ones. When he asked a maid she had said they were called migraines but that he was too young to have them.
Yeah right.
His own reflection was beginning to change as well. Instead of seeing his sky blue eyes in the mirror-he saw faint rings of navy blue...
England was visiting in two months.
That was a problem for Alfred.
Because Billy had disappeared completely.
And he was pretty sure he wasn't really gone...
CLIFFHANGER BITCHES! *smiles like Billy*
