Forty-Two
After travelling down a few halls Charlie, Snow and Vincent ran into Bernard and Caleb.
“Are you three alright?” Bernard said eyeing Charlie’s swollen eye.
“We’re fine, what about you Uncle B?” Snow asked.
“Better once we get Cal some help.”
Vincent walked over to help Bernard keep Caleb upright.
“Hey Hot Stuff.” Vincent greeted.
“Whatever.” Caleb chuckled.
“Where are Ash and Rose?”
“Up in the observatory, we got held up by one of those…revenants.” Bernard said sadly. “But she wandered off in the middle of our fight.”
“She?”
‘Delia.’ Caleb mouthed.
Snow nodded in understanding.
Vincent looked at Snow. “Dr. Cardenas is tending the wounded near the residence wing, I’ll take them there, while you guys go help Rose and Ash.”
“Ash won’t be there.”
Everyone turned to see Lucinda run up to them. “Alexandra let out a banshee scream, she saw Ash’s death. Serena has her.”
“What about Rose?”
“She hasn’t come down.” Caleb said.
