Ovie
Legacy Name: Ovie

Ovie was 7 when her parents left her and her older twin to fend for themselves. At the age of 13 a terrible accident had left her brother in critical condition. The doctors told her he might not pull through, but Ovie wouldn't hear it. Halloween was all she had left and these "doctors" didn't seem to understand.....

Ovie loved her brother dearly, and knew she wouldn't survive without him. After all, he was her twin, he was a part of her. Despite the doctors better judgment, Ovie insisted that Halloween go home to die. She told them, since they obviously weren't going to help him, he might as well be in the privacy of his own home when he left her.

On the bus ride home, Halloween leaned on his sister for support. He was weak and sore, and try as he may, he couldn't support his own weight. Sensing his distress, Ovie leaned over and softly kissed his forehead. As she cried quietly her a few of her tears ran into his open wounds. Everything that happened that day, caused something in Ovie's brain to finally snap.

Back at home, Ovie helped her brother into his bed. He winced from the weight of the blanket. Sitting next to him on his bed, Ovie's newly insane mind formed a plan. When he was asleep, she would make a quick trip to the graveyard. "Yes..." she said quietly to herself. A creepy smile playing with the corners of her mouth.

It wasn't till after midnight that Ovie finally made it to the graveyard. She crept past the rusty gate and made her way to the fresh graves. Ovie spent a good portion of the night digging up graves and putting various body parts into a large sack. Dawn was fast approaching and Ovie had to get back home. She was quick, and just as quietly as she entered she left. No one would ever know she was there.

The next day Ovie kissed her sleeping brothers forehead and told him she would fix everything. Then she went to her room and pulled out various pieces of dead flesh. She pulled down some books which she "borrowed" from the library and set to work sewing things together. By that evening she was confident to work on her brother.

She took her bag of supplies, which various needles and threads and headed to the room down the hall. She held her brothers hand in hers for only a moment, then went to work. She removed his broken limbs and replaced them with the newer ones. The bag was just about empty, minus a few spare parts when she was finished.

She cleaned his new wounds, and proceeded to clean herself up. When she returned to the room she saw Hallowe'en laying there sleeping, like nothing was wrong with him, except for the obvious stitches. She tucked the blankets in around him to keep him warm and curled up next to him.

Softly, she laid her head on his chest, and whispered "I love you, get some rest and I'll see you soon." She then fell asleep.
