She ran, she ran faster then She had ever run in her life. she knew her brother was in danger, she knew he had little time left. She sprinted through the streets, tears of shock and worry ran down her face as she slowly sunk into hysterics. Finally the cafe came into view. She could see light and movement coming from inside. The boys nearly jumped out of their seats when Eponine burst in in hysterics, collapsing to her knees almost instantly,overtaken by tears and emotion. The young men stood up, Enjolras and Grantaire gently helped a sobbing and mumbling girl to her feet. Marius suddenly noticed that it was Eponine and of the large amount of blood covering his friend from head to foot. He pushed his way to the front of the boys and grabbed Eponine and started checking her over for injuries, she took deep calming breaths as Grantaire and Enjolras helped her sit down. as soon as she could make out some words she started to tell Marius what happened,
"M-my......f-father.......b-beat.....m-m-my brother.... hurt b-bad-badly..... d-dying.... help ......him pl-please," she managed to get her breathing back to normal. Enjolras quickly got up,
"Eponine where is your brother?"
He said gently holding her arms as Marius had been put in a daze,
"I will show you," she said weakly getting to her feet.
Enjolras looked at her worriedly and then addressed the other boys kicking Marius out of his daze slightly ,
"I want a bed made for Ep's brother and someone get joly here and tell him what's happened,"
There was a Corus of 'yes Enjolras ' and 'come on guys'. Eponine ran out of the cozy cafe back into the freezing cold and was quickly followed by Enjolras who was carrying a blanket. they began to run. Enjolras thought as he ran, it was cold and this boy was what about 11 and was dying well at least it wasn't anyone he new but then a new thought crossed his mind, what if they were to late?
