Dory, Bernard J. [best ereader for textbooks TXT] 📗

someone who wants to say hi. Can you take it?" Marcus appeared in her room with a young child. Dory could not believe her eyes when she saw he niece height."I think Jessica will be a great name. She is strong and she is more Like you than your sister." Dory froze in her bed and could not move a muscle. Her niece survived and she could not find the right word to express her feeling toward Marcus and her joy for her niece.

"Hi, who are you? I do not know this sir. He said I was home.Am I?"

"Yes you are honey and I am your aunty Dory. You will behaving with us from now. You will have space to play a lot here. The house is enormous. We will do everything together." Jessica remembered the day she saw her aunt for the first time. Dory remembered it clearly and she reminisced this moment every time she saw her running, hiding, sleeping, reading or crying. She was fulfilled with joy and happiness. She had a new reason to live and to stopped her old bad habit. Jessica gave her time to only think of showing her what was right.

"This is how you feel about me and you did not agree to save me in the first place." Jessica got disappointed even with all the emotions she felt from her aunty Dory since her miracle until now.

"You think you know who you are. Then tell me if you are ready to do this after what you learned from me." Dory raised her voice. Jessica got shocked and she grabbed her and her eyes flashed the memories of thousands people Dory executed for no reason simply, because she felt like it. She held Jessica for a minute and by the time she released her hands Jessica was trembling of fear and unable to pronounce a word from the atrocity she saw in her aunty memories. "Trust me you do not know what you are capable of. You should thank me for it. Because you would be worst."

Act V

 

Dory stood once more at the head of the castle and breathed a full if fresh air and admired the sunrise, the trees, the wind, and the animals in the forest below the mountains. Her theory of greatness than his specie therapy worked once again and she smiled. While she was going down, she felt Jessica leaving Marcus room and went down to leave the castle. Maybe he was time she found her own way after she learned the truth. She was going to decided whether she wanted to be like her aunty or being a different immortal. That was The reason Dory bothered to educate her and to shadow her away from the reality of immortality. She had lived it many times over and wanted to alter the future with better personalized immortal.

She got to her office and sat to work in her contribution to the town once more. Becoming immortal was easy, gaining immortal ability did not take time, but living of an immortal required purpose and reason to live. If not, you would always lose your way. Her book " Being Immortal" was published in town and every person who read that book, bought it simply to remind themselves they were immortal and they needed a purpose. Some people in town left to live their immortality in the best reason they could find in their life. The town knew evolution as well thanks to this book. She accomplished more after the book for the town and everyone recognized the "Lady of the castle."

Jessica went to say goodbye to her dear friend in the cemetery and some friends came along. Jessica reminded them how great their time together had been. After this, a moment of silence occurred and Jessica thoughts went to her aunty memories. She had some answers now and she wanted proof. Would any of her friend be close to her if they knew what she was capable of? If they knew the atrocity she could cause in an instant. The sadness she knew would not be enough compare to the one she might if she lost all her friends simply for being who she was. She became terrified to the idea and excused them to run back to the castle.

"Why me? Why can't you leave me dead? Why did you make me like this?" She opened the office door with absurd questions Dory was waiting for some times.

"Your mother wanted you to live and I wanted to avoid you the agony of being immortal. I gave you a home, family, friends, and purpose. As long as you have these, your immortality will be a walk in the park. If not, you may as well cut your head off." Dory told her straight truth and she could not encounter the Lady who raised her for one hundred year and who was still doing her education in this day. "Do you know I can still remember their deaths and their screams? The worst is that I still remember the first time I kill. It was no other than my best friend." Dory tend her hand toward her and she gently held this hand that helped her on her bicycle, to write, and to eat. Dory felt her hesitation and her pain but this was the least of her worry. Until now she had not lost her yet to the dark side of being immortal.

A year accomplished since Dory and Gabrielle became immortal and received orientation through their alteration. Master came to them in an afternoon and announced to them that they had to pass his test.

"What test Master?" Gabrielle kept her interest toward Master while Marcus tried his best to let Dory got used to being immortal before addressing the subject. Gabrielle always rested on impressing Master while Dory had a reason to get better and social, her family. She spent a year away from them with the worries they presumed she met her demise as well as Gabrielle. The blood on the floor of their house kind of gave it away.

"Tonight you will go to the parade alone and you will feed and you will not kill not even a ant." The words got straight in Dory's mind, but For Gabrielle they fell in deaf ears. As promised, Marcus provided them nice and new clothes. Dory wore a nice white skirt covered with a jacket accompanied a tight blue pant and a leather boot. Gabrielle put a two strings pink skirt with her new big ball in her chest with a short pants enough only to hide her buttocks and a nice pair of boot heels above her knees.

"You are not coming Marcus. I need your help you know. I am not Gabrielle." Dory felt her sensibility to succumb at her desire.

"You are going to be fine. Just think of your family and when you return, we will think of another anchor for you." Marcus assured her with a kiss in her forehead and she followed Gabrielle at the door.
The parade did not change much while the new immortal learned of their new ability and their curse. Music, dancers, exhibitionists, circus, and animals. The parade upgraded a little by putting big pictures of the many heroes the town produced in the 19th century. Gabrielle disappeared as soon as she got to the parade, but Dory got suffocated with hundred of people in town in the parade. She felt being strangled in a bath of blood. Unable to resist her impulsion, she flew on the rooftop of the house in the street where the parade strolled. She followed better and she caught her breathe. The sensation became easier as she remained close to them and ignored the silence. She kept herself busy trying to see the whole parade and to see her family. As soon as she concluded they were not in the parade, she crossed the street in the rooftop to get home. From a rooftop close the church, she looked inside her house to hear her mother cried, her brother sighed in pain, and her sister grieving by looking at old pictures. She moved to fly down and went home when she heard someone running out of breathe. She tried to ignore it but she recognized Gabrielle voice in the background.

"Monster," Dory perceived the situation and rushed to stop Gabrielle in her craziness.

"Gabrielle, what are you doing? Master told us not to kill anyone. You do remember, right?" Dory did not see any opening to avoid a disaster. Gabrielle would devour the guy and broke Master rule. One person would lose his life simply a monster wanted to eat. If there was nothing Dory knew how to do well was to obey the rules. One reason her father had such great relationship with her in the first place.

"I do not want to die. I do not want to die." the guy screamed twice in a row with his heart from where he had no clue.

"Shut…up…" Dory pointed her finger to him and hypnotized him to be silent in the moment.

"Wow. This is a new move. You have to teach it to me after we enjoy this little meal together. You have not eaten right. That what I thought." Dory swallowed hard and kept her eye on Gabrielle movement around the guy neck. "You can jump in when you are ready." Dory moved, Gabrielle pulled out her fangs, and the guy screamed one more.

The door opened and Marcus and Master saw Dory appeared behind it. Master was not surprise but Marcus hoped to see both girls came back.

"I am moving out. My family needs me. I must go join them before one of them die. I am sorry I can't stay like I promise but I will be close if you need me." Dory did not have much take to return home. She appreciated the time Marcus dedicated to her orientation but it was time to go home.

"Where is Gabrielle?" Master wondered as Dory walked out the castle.

"She may be taken a bath in the river. We got separated before we can get to the parade. She surely counted to lose her head." Marcus understood easily when Master ignored her answer and climbed the stairs. The eyes of Dory changed that night and from there she was already in her way to become a reaper.
