Chapter Text
Stay alive…
Stay alive…
“Where’s my daughter!?” Chloe yelled, rushing into the hospital.
The doctor went over to Chloe in a rush. “Mrs. Charming, they brought her in a half an hour ago. She lost a lot of blood on the way over.”
Stay alive...
“Is she alive?”
“Yes, but you have to understand that the sword entered just above her hip and l odged in her right arm.” The doctor explained.
“Can I see her please!?” Chloe demanded.
“I’m doing everything I can, but the wound was already infected when she arrived—”
Chloe shoved her way past the doctor, opening the doors to her daughters room, and rushed over to her. “Violet!”
“Ma, I did exactly as you said.” Violet said weakly, with a quivering voice, but smiling. “Ma, I held my head up high.”
“I know, I know. Shh. You did everything just right.” Chloe said, her hand caressing Violet’s beautiful purple hair. Tears falling from her eyes and onto Violet.
“ Even before we got to ten—”
“Shh, shh”
“ I was aiming for the sky .” Violet reaches her shaking arm up to the sky but weakly letting it fall.
“I know, I know.” Chloe squeezes Violet’s hand. “Save your strength and stay alive…”
Stay alive...
Suddenly the room door bursts open with Red in her normal outfit, but mascara was running down her face. “No!”
“Red!”
Red rushed over to Chloe’s side and grabbed her daughter's face, then looked at the injury. A stab wound of a sword. “Is she breathing? Is she going to survive this!?”
Stay alive...
Red looks at Chloe angrily, grabbing her by the shirt collar. “Who did this? Chloe, did you know!?”
Violet coughs up blood and slightly looks at Red, making Red release Chloe and grab Violet's hand.. “Mom, I’m so sorry for forgetting what you taught me…”
“My daughter—”
“We played piano…”
Red smiled slightly through the tears.“I taught you piano.”
“You would put your hands on mine.” Violet struggled.
“You changed the melody every time”
Violet laughs slightly, but coughs up more blood. “I would always change the line.”
“Shh. I know, I know”
Violet smiles. “I will always change the line”
“I know, I know.”
“Uno dos tres cuatro.” Red sings.
“Uno dos tres cuatro.”
Red smiles. “Cinco seis siete ocho nueve”
“Cinco seis siete ocho nueve.”
“Good.”
“Uno dos tres cuatro, cinco seis siete.”
Violet’s eyes start to lose their spark. “Uno dos tres….”
“Ocho nueve...”
Violet's eyes close.
“Siete ocho nueve—” Red tries again. But no response. “Siete Ocho…” She begs…but no answer. Realizing her daughter is gone forever, she sobs her head down onto Violet’s shoulder and lets out a blood curdling scream. Chloe puts a comforting hand on Red’s as they both sob into each other's arms, though both of them were on bad terms.
“Is this enough?”
