Liam's POV

We ran out of the house and came up to the car

"You've got to drive the car, I can't drive" Daphne said

"But I'll have to let go of your hand for us to get in" I said

"Then let go, there's no one here now" she said as she jerked her hand off mine

We quickly entered the car and I drove off

"You didn't feel anything?" I asked

"No" she replied

"What about the Soul Hunters?"

"You said they are also known as the Hollow brothers, I don't think they've got emotions" she said and I nodded

It was still raining heavily

And then reality dawned on me

Charlie is dead

'How can Charlie die?'

He was gonna help us figure all this out, how could he die

"Maybe we should just go to my house now" Daphne said

"Do you still remember the way?" I asked

"That's what am trying to figure out now, everywhere has changed" she said

"Just describe the place for me"

"It's a big house, probably old by now, beside the West Haven's Church" she said

"I know the place" I said as drove in the direction of West Haven's Church

I drove for what seemed like forever to me and then finally stopped in front of the house

Daphne quickly came down and she ran into the house

I walked behind her and we entered the house

I cleaned one of the chairs in the sitting room and sat on it with Daphne

"We'll start looking for clues about the orphanage you were adopted from tomorrow, I think we should get some sleep for now" I said

"Okay" She said as she stood up

"You aren't feeling any emotions?" I asked

"No, everyone's probably asleep now and their emotions are dormant, well except if they are having a nightmare but I can't sense anyone have a nightmare now"

"Okay" I said

"Though all the rooms are dusty but you can clean up one and sleep in it" she said and I nodded

Then she went inside one of the rooms

I dropped my head into my hands as I tried to stop the tears forming in my eyes

Charlie is dead

I still can't believe he's dead

A drop of tear fell from my eyes and I quickly cleaned it

I've got to be strong if we're gonna survive this

Then I heard her sniffle and break down in tears

I got up and went to the door as my hand hovered over the handle...

"Am sorry Mom and Dad " I heard her say

Then I opened the door

"Are you alright?" I asked as I went to sit beside her

"Am fine" She replied as she cleaned my tears

"You thought of your parents?" I asked and she nodded

"Everything's gonna be fine" I said as I hugged her and she sniffed

We disengaged from the hug and I looked at her

"Are you okay now?" I asked and she nodded

"You should get some sleep then" I said as I stood up to leave but she held my hand

"Are you okay?" I asked

"I mean, the Soul Hunters killed Charlie and you guys seemed really close" She said

"He's my uncle" I said "And thanks for asking, am fine"

"He said something before he died, something about you not being the last Walker" Daphne said

"I.... I totally forgot about that" I said as I sat back on the bed

"He said you should find Aria, Who's Aria?" She asked

"I don't know, I had no idea there was still another Walker existing apart from my uncle and I, Maybe Aria is a Walker" I said

"How are we gonna find her?" She asked

"I don't know Daphne, I don't know. I think we should just concentrate on finding the orphanage you were adopted from for now. I've placed some of the Musk roots round the house and since its also raining, they went be able to detect our scents that easily so we should both get some sleep while we can, I have a feeling tomorrow's gonna be a really long day" I said and she nodded

"Good night then" I said standing up

"Good night" she replied and I left the room

I went to one of the empty rooms and I cleaned and dusted the bed

I laid on the bed facing the ceiling

'I aren't sleepy at all'

'How can my life change so much in such a short time'

'Was all this destined to happen to me right from the start'

'Now Charlie is dead and he said am not the last Walker'

'Throughout my life I've never heard about any other Walker apart from the ones I knew and they are all dead'

'Is Aria a Walker?'

'Why does Charlie want me to find her?'

'How am I gonna find her?'

I kept thinking of everything and I didn't even know when I fell asleep.

Am always posting late nowadays.
