Chapter Thirty-Four: Homecoming

snapshot_d43d3676_143d36de

Emmy wanted to run, to scream, to cry. She'd lost another one. And not just anyone. The last. For nearly a century Emmy followed generation after generation of Dipotere women, and one by one she'd watched them fall. Bianca had been her last hope and her last chance. They had come so close to understanding the mysterious curse.

Emmy had risked everything, and she had lost. She'd relinquished her immortality to live with Bianca, to protect her, and now...

Now there was nothing left.

There was no Bianca, and no heiress. Maria was safe now, thank goodness, but she had not been the chosen one. That burden had fallen to Maria's sister, Mirabella, who had paid with her life. It was likely that Allie had survived as well, having run away from the DiPotere house, but she was not the named heiress. The heiress must be named by a DiPotere matriarch, and no Bianca meant no heir. Those were the rules, after all, and the powers of good must always abide by the rules.

Emmy stood for a while, pondering her mortal fate, when a small and familiar voice drifted to her on the light breeze of the day. "Emmy!" the voice called. "Emmy! Over here!"

The voice was so familiar. Emmy craned her neck to hear more. As she looked around her she saw, across the street from the empty lot in which she stood, came a waving and smiling Bianca.

"Emmy! Thank goodness," said Bianca as she embraced her friend in a tight hug. "Where have you been? We've all been just worried sick about you."

"I'm fine, Bianca, I'm fine. My story will come later, but now...I don't understand. Where is your house?"

"There it is," said Bianca, gesturing toward the large dwelling behind her. "Oh, Emmy, so much has happened. I'm so glad you're safe."

"I still don't understand," said Emmy. "Your house is gone. And the new house? It's lovely, but how...I mean, I've only been gone a few weeks."

Now, it was Bianca's turn to look confused. "A few weeks? Emmy, you've been gone for a whole year."
