Forever Love | Xavier Thorpe

Chapter 4

Blair and Wednesday watch as Goody was about to run, she pulled her sister's arm but Constance wouldn't move. "Sister." Goody whispered, her fear of the man stomping towards wouldn't allow her to speak louder. "What are you doing?"

Constance pulled her arm from Goody, she pulled two knives she had on her person, and held them knives facing down with the handle facing her. "Buying you time. Run." Constance moved to face Joseph who had nearly reached them.

"No! I won't leave you too." Goody cried. She couldn't lose her sister, she was her other half. A part of her. Wednesday looked down, seeing the familiar pain in Goody's eyes, the pain of the possibility of losing a sibling.

Constance looked at her sister, she gebtly held her face and looked in her eyes. "I will never leave you. The ones we love never truly leave us, while I may not physically be by your side I will always be there, in spirit, in love." Constance placed a hand on her sister's heart and whispered a single word that only Blair understood. "Tralatio." [Translation: Transfer]

A sudden rush of power travelled through Goody's body. "What did you do?" She asked her sister.

"Saved you. Now run. Run far and do not return. Please." Constance begged her sister. She had transferred all her power into Goody, to save her.

"I love thee." Goody cried as she ran far.

"I love thee." Constance got in position ready to take on the devil in human form. Joseph Crackstone. Constance looked to the side... to Blair. "Protect her." She said. Blair understood, it was her duty to protect her sister. To protect Wednesday.

But Blair and Wednesday weren't able to watch the fight, instead they were transported to Goody watching her run. When they heard a bloodcurdling scream. Goody collapsed as pain resonated through her body.

"NOOOOOOOO!" Goody screeched. Constance Addams was dead. Only able to herself, Wednesday held Blair tight, not wanting her sister to leave, to disappear. Goody stood up and ran, not wanting to end up like her sister, she had to survive, it was the only way that Constance would be avenged. If not through her, then through her descendants.

Wednesday and Blair transport to another location, a cave, it was dark, wet and lonely. Goody came into their sights. A light formed beside her. "What's happening?" Wednesday asked.

"It's Constance." Blair replied.

"What are talking about?"

"It's a spell I saw in one of the books. It was named 'Final Goodbye'. It's in case the deceased has any final words.

"My darling sister." Constance's voice came from the orb, and formed her body, not a physical one, but a spiritual one. "If you are seeing this, then I have had survived Joseph Crackstone..." Goody cried at the sight of her sister. "... but I have made sure that you lived. Please, promise me that you'll have a life, that you won't be engrossed in revenge against the devil."

"I promise." Goody whispered.

"I love thee so much. I'm sorry that we won't have this adventure together. This is something that you'll have to do alone." Constnace laid down on her back. "Now, will you help send me away the way we planned?"

"I will." Goody laid beside the spirit of her sister. She went to place her hand on hers but it phased through, making Goody cry more.

They both began to whisper together.

"Entreat me not to leave thee, or return from following after thee. For whither thou goest, I will go, and where thou lodgest, I will lodge. Thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God. Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried. The Angel do so to me, and more also, if aught but death part thee and me." They finished.
