Alternative ending to the book.
By Emma / Spinebreakers Crew
Then i came away from the orphanage, i ran and ran until my cracked glasses slid even further down my nose and my eyes blurred out of vision. Despair encased my heart and mind, although i knew Zelda would always be with me. The Nazis had now paid for their sins, but it wasn’t enough. They took the life of the dearest person to me away; i must destroy them, every single one. Tears roll down my burning cheeks, my arms and legs catch on wild thorns from every direction in this tangled forest. I collapse on the floor and cry into my palms. I want them back.
I walk home after dragging my feet to the ground, Gabriek was inside the house, but i didn’t enter, i sat on the field and looked to the stars and realised i still hadn’t said a proper goodbye. I ran again until my legs felt like they couldn’t run anymore, until i reach the horrific town square. I walked slowly up the where Zelda hung. Her eyes closed and she looked asleep, except for the painful red mark slithering around her neck. I kissed her cheek and let my tears warm them, i whispered goodbye and placed both lockets over her head and watched them catch the moonlight.
I held her hand and sat on the ground, this was my Zelda. I promised we would be together forever.
