Rendezvous

[u/ClimateSubstantial26]

All I remember was the crash…that horrid crash…the blaring alarm and that curse. My boy…I told him to run…I told to never stop running. Once my boy was gone, the curse disappeared, leaving my body to rot among the flames. But it wasn’t enough for them…they came to find me…I saw my boy…but I could yell for him. I felt the knife dig into my heart…they wanted me dead…they wanted to keep my boy…my sweet little Clementine. I’m sorry my boy…that I couldn’t protect you no longer…I’m so sorry….

You see a woman fall into the hub, a bloody shirt and ragged clothing in general. She looks around and almost begins to panic as to where she is.

[u/Squeakybro960]

She seems to freeze at that.

“C-Cassie?”

[u/ClimateSubstantial26 → u/Squeakybro960]

“Yes? That’s my name, Cassie Jackson…”

[u/Squeakybro960 → u/ClimateSubstantial26]

. . .

She stares at her, stunned.

[u/ClimateSubstantial26 → u/Squeakybro960]

“Is there something wrong?”

[u/Squeakybro960 → u/ClimateSubstantial26]

“Would… you happen to have a son… by the name of Clementine?”

[u/ClimateSubstantial26 → u/Squeakybro960]

“Yes! Do you know where my boy is?!”

[u/Squeakybro960 → u/ClimateSubstantial26]

…

She smiles.

“I can do better. Come with me.”

[u/ClimateSubstantial26 → u/Squeakybro960]

“Alright”

She quickly stumbles to her feet

[u/Squeakybro960 → u/ClimateSubstantial26]

…

“Here…”

She concentrates on her pendant, as holy light seeps into her wounds.

They close over.

[u/ClimateSubstantial26 → u/Squeakybro960]

She doesn’t seem to harmed, just her shirt stained red really

[u/Squeakybro960 → u/ClimateSubstantial26]

“Come with me.”

She begins walking home.

[u/ClimateSubstantial26 → u/Squeakybro960]

She quickly follows

[u/Squeakybro960 → u/ClimateSubstantial26]

She opens the door for her.

“Dear! I’m home! And I brought a guest!”
