Hello! Sorry for not updating! My school class went on a camping trip for a week, and there was no internet, so :(

Well, some people got confused by the first chapter, it was kind of the prologue so I'm not going to be writing that way anymore – I don't think.

So here's a summary of what happened:

There was a fire, people crowded around the fire – civilians.

You knew someone would die.

Then Jay's life was described, saying he would become mentally ill.

All the people (mostly civilians) smelt normal things like smoke, felt the heat from the fire. Except two

One was in the fire, about to die.

The other was outside, crying for his friend.

Then the line is repeated: All smelt fire, smoke. They felt the heat from the flames, all but one. But instead of two, it's one.

Because the one in the flames is already dead.

Zane was in the fire, and died.

I hope that explained it. If not, I think YOU'RE mentally ill. (jk)

Okay, read on!

One had died, but the other lived on.

Though maybe, Jay didn't want to anymore…


The police told me to go home, along with the others, but I didn't want to. My world was tipped around. I didn't know all the kind things Zane did for us, but didn't tell us he did.

Turns out Zane cleaned the ship, organised the kitchen and even fluffed the pillows in the games room.

I missed him so much. I didn't want to live without him, I couldn't.

"Jay, oh Jay," came Nya's voice as she turned around and hugged me. But I couldn't enjoy it, it was my fault Zane was dead.

"Come on buddy, you couldn't have known what would happen. Let's just get home." Cole tried to comfort me, patted my shoulder, smiled through the tears that would come later, when he was alone. I didn't believe him.

Nya's pov

Once we got to the bounty, we all went to bed, though I don't think anyone got any sleep.

Poor Jay, he blames himself because he was the one that told Zane to go into the bakery. The bakery that quickly caught fire.

Zane carried all the people that were in the bakery out, but went back to check for others trapped inside.

He didn't come out after that.


I heard my alarm go off, so I got up.

Cole's pov

Everything was different, it all seemed so empty, so lacking. Lacking the spirit and happiness and friendship and love and mateship and – I can't do this anymore. I spent all of last night quietly weeping for the loss that could never be redeemed. But now I had to wake up. Come back to reality, which I really didn't want to do.

But I would have to at some point, so why not now?

Next day

Jay's pov

I did something bad. I let Zane die.

Then I did another wrong. That didn't help.

But soon, very soon I will be able to truly be happy again, everyone will. And they will thank me. Because I will be the one to give them what they want.

Zane.

Well there we go, another chapter.
