Emilie Autumn Tribute 1

And so the wheels of the horse drawn cart turned faster as it crashed down upon the weathered remains of what once was a road, the first gate was now passed i did not grasp much of the gate just as much as a large blurred object in the cruel darkness of this mysterious night, this night which seemed to drag on as if never to end or that i must pass a series of test to see the almost unimaginable light of tomorrow.
I held my breath as the clambering cart drew closer to our destination, with my breath still held i again peered to the window exhaling as i did, the weather had taken a turn for the worse, rain had begun to hammer the ground as if a blacksmith hammers metal. I feared this was a sign of things to come, due this thought my mind now filled with many frightful ideas, i began to shake, my breathing became more frequent.

We came closer and closer to our destination "this is taking an eternity" i thought to my self as i tried to slow my breathing, and then out of the darkness i caught a glimpse of the building, my heart rate that had now began to slow raced to an unprecedented state.
This was insane i could not be condemned to this state, this society is insane....am i insane?, this questions i could not possibly answer in my current state of mind, or maybe it was because i was insane that i could not do so. No this mad i cannot be, the carriage stopped i raised my head, i pushed my hair back, rain trickled down my face, the cold i did not feel as i was to content on the sight i was now facing.
Through the sheet of rain i could see a dark object moving slowly towards the carriage, this frightened me as to my now shaken mind this appeared to me at the time to me a figure of the dead, the object was limping towards me, i backed up against the drenched cold wall, heart beat now racing faster then before.

I could now see distinct features of this object, arms, head, it was now only a few feet away from me, i shut my eyes hoping everything would be better, i froze with fright, the door opened to the carriage, i was praying that no evil would be brought upon me, i believed this to be too late. a female voice shattered the silent the rain, this shocked me, could this being that i feared so much just be a female, in this time of ages anything was possible.
"Hello" said a sturn yet educated voice, i brought the courage to open my eyes, what stood before me indeed was a female with the most precellular appearance i had ever seen, the figure had tightly curled hair white ribbon running through, i then whipped the rain from my eyes, i could then see the figure had very pale make up on.
"Hello child what is your name!?" The voice was again sturn and demanded an answerer "....Em...Emilie" i replied barely able to speak as i was still in a state of shock, "Hello child the figure replied i am Ms Merry weather", how ironic i thought to myself, "Emilie welcome to the insane asylum for wayward Victorian girls...
