Her eyes were the same colour as the velvet, they were almost transparent.
I stared straight back into her eyes up until she tried to remove my glasses and I pushed her away. I bolted to the door, nearly knocking Mable over and I ran back outside. I ran back to my house, picking my bags up and rushing inside.
What i saw next make my heart skip a beat and then multiply three times of it's original rate.
It was Alice and Freckles, sitting on my couch, staring at me. "Welcome home, Divine H!" they said joyfully. I spoke, hyperventilating, "Alice, Freckles, I'm so glad you're al..." then they started opening their eyes, slowly.
They were the same horrid velvet colour as Mable and Sable's, what had happened?
I glanced back between them as I backed out of the door. "Where are you going, gouvnr?" said Alice, in her Australian accent.
"Please don't leave us again, Divine H." quacked Freckles.
I turned to run, only to drip over Hopper. He glared down at me "We need you, Dr. H." and the n I remembered I had medicine in my pocket. Grabbing it, i threw the crushed remains in his face. Getting enough time to pick myself up and run again.
I never should've left. This is all my fault. I was torn out of my thoughts when I almost fell into the river while crossing the broken remains of the old bridge.
I wanted to scream, but I couldn't find my voice.
Hopper was surprisingly fast for being such a largely built penguin, he kept up his chase as if he was dying to tell me something. I'd always heal him when sick, but he wasn't sick now. Or at least...not any sick that I can heal...
