Ethan's POV

"We need to get out of here!" I yelled as I yanked Benny up on his feet.

Jesse, Benny, Sarah, and I started running through the halls trying to escape the Lucifractor. All of the walls were breaking and the ceiling was cracking into pieces falling on top of us.

"Come on!" I yelled.

There was nowhere to go except for a small door. Sarah tugged on my arm as I led them towards the opened door. My eyes were squinting but I was still able to see.

Before anything else could happen, I jump through the door dragging Sarah down with me. A flash of light blinded me as my body hit the ground. Suddenly, my vision came back to me.

Next to me was Sarah. She looked fine and nothing seemed to be wrong with her.

"Sarah?" I murmured. "You okay, Sarah?"

She let out a soft cough. "Ethan?" She breathed.

"What the hell happened?" asked Jesse as he stood up. "Weren't we supposed to die again?"

"I guess not," I said as I got up. I helped Sarah up as well.

"If you two aren't disintegrated, that means…" said Benny. "…it didn't work. Stern didn't do it!"

"Yes!" I gasped. Sarah wrapped her arms around my neck and I hugged her back.

"Hey, Romeo, Juliet," Jesse interrupted us. "Don't get too comfortable. This doesn't make any sense."

"What do you mean?" asked Sarah.

"Stern using the Lucifractor and nothing happened. Something mustn't have been right."

"Maybe something was supposed to be added along with the Lucrifractor," I suggested.

"Yes, there's a clue." sighed Jesse. "Well, I guess I should be going."

"Going?" I asked.

"What? I wasn't gonna stay with y'all."

Before he could fly off, I stopped him. "Hey, Jesse." He turned back and I held out my hand. Jesse glared at it for a moment. Then, he finally shook my hand. "Thank you."

"No problem." After a brief moment, he took off.

All of a sudden, the sounds of crackling leaves and footsteps spooked us. In the woods, two mysterious figures appeared. Once they revealed themselves in the dark, I was relieved after discovering that it was Rory and Erica.

"We're still here!" exclaimed Rory. "Where's Stern?"

"Burning it up in hell," joked Benny. "What now?"

Sarah blinked her eyes. "We have many more adventures along the way. This might be one of our scariest ones to forget."

"C'mon, let's get out of here," I said. We all walked away in peace.

In the building of which the event took place was still and quiet. Out of the blue, a shadow is revealed in the window of the building.
