Torment

Aren't you done staring?; asked a familiar voice as I turned back to see my old self standing right infront of me, she looked white, paled and emaciated as I was before time traveling here.

"What?!!; I exclaimed in a scared and frightened tone as I stepped back a little bit.

"Don't you feel any guilt just looking at your own body lying there lifeless, helplessly; asked my old self with the look of hatred and disgust in her eyes.

"I...I.. don't know; I exclaimed in shame.

"You don't know?!!; she said laughing as she moved around me. So is it that easy for you to forget you own self, for you to leave your past life? (chuckles) I don't think so Alice or should I say me.

"What do you want from me, why am I even here?; I said in a shaking tone.

"What do I want from?! ,oh nothing but revenge!!; she said.

"Revenge?!; I exclaimed, what have I done to you for you to exact your revenge on me.

"What have you done?!, so it looks like it's soo easy for you to forget us.

"What do you mean by us?!.

You, I and your dead self, you think it's Soo easy to leave us in the past don't you?!

"No!.. no..what are talking about?!; I asked full of anxiety.

"(laughs)Oh Alice, you're apart of this world, the world you're living in is nothing but fantasy, you think you can find someone who will love, care for you, well how did that turn out, you ended up getting locked up in your room for a month and you call that love(laughs) you are nothing but a lonely fool. In this real world, you're nothing but a dead body.

"No...no! shut up!!!, I don't want to listen you anymore!! so just shut up; I exclaimed in tears.

"Oh you can't just shut us up!, we're apart of you Alice, we are you Alice. You think you can make the world a better place!, pooor you!, the world is already rotten and this is the world you belong to all alone with no loved one's, despised by everyone, treated like an outcast, this is you!!!; said my old self with a sinister tone.

"No!!! this is all not true!!, you're just in head!!, stop messing with my head!!; I exclaimed full of sorrow and anger.

"(giggles) you're trying to shut us up?!!, I'm afraid that won't be possible!! because we already are in you; she said as she turned into black smoke and disappeared into the air leaving me standing there all alone just staring at my dead self as tears drops down my cheeks.

I'm I really nothing but a loser, does my dream of making this world a better place nothing but fantasy?; I knelt down on the floor, question myself over and over again until I heard a familiar voice.

"Your Grace, please hurry up and wake up, we've all been waiting for you to wake up so please do listen and come back to us;said a familiar voice in tears.

"I remember now!!! Zao, Quan Lun, Lucy, Luan, Austin all this people are there for me. I'm not lonely anymore, I too have loved one's; I said with a smile as I pulled my hands towards the bright light.

......

....

"Please your Grace, hurry up and wake up, we've all been waiting for you to wake up so please if you're listening, wake up; said Zao.

"Big sis Zao, the imperial doctor and the Emperor is here; said Lucy as they stood up and greeted them.

"Has she shown any signs of waking up?;. asked the imperial doctor.

"No doctor, she been lying there still like how she was before; answered Zao as the doctor moved in to examine Lin Juluu.

"(sighs) Her condition is still the same, there are no changes, your majesty, the Emperess has been like this for a month now, I'm afraid if it goes on like this, there'll be nothing we can do; exclaimed the imperial doctor.

"What do you mean there's nothing we can do, you're the imperial doctor, it's your duty to heal people if you can't just do your job properly then there's no need in keeping you alive; exclaimed the Emperor furiously as he ordered the guards to execute the doctor.

"Your highness, please calm down, making rational decision may just results in another tragedy so please calm down; said cocoubine Jing Feng.

"But how can I calm down to see Lin Juluu just lying helpless, there's not a single day that I don't curse myself for what I've done to her, it's all my fault for not asking her first what happened and just locked her up, such a fool I am; said the Emperor full of guilt and sorrow as he bent down on there floor.

"No my Emperor, don't say that, don't blame yourself for something that you haven't done. It's all the fault of the Emperess Dowager and you did Justice for that. My Emperor, you've not eaten for a week now, Her Emperess won't be happy to wake up and see you all pale and skinny; exclaimed cocoubine Jing Feng, maids!! bring the Emperor some food to eat.

" No!!! they'll be doing no such thing; exclaimed the Emperor furiously.

"But your majesty, you're....

"Shut up!! and get away from me; said the Emperor as he pushed Jing Feng away.

"What's going on here?!; I said as I sat up slowly still feeling dazed.

"Your Grace!!!, Lin Juluu!!!; exclaimed Zao and Emperor as they both run towards me and held me in a tight hug.

"Lin Juluu!! , I thought you were never going to wake; said the Emperor in tears as he continued holding me in a tight hug.

"Your Grace, I'm soo glad you woke up; said Zao in tears.

"Your Grace, Welcome back; said cocoubine Jing Feng with a smile on her face.
