I was walking around the city while licking my chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream while walking with my best friend, Lily.

"So, you want to go play some games later?" Lily asked. She looked worried.

"You go ahead. I got chores." I smiled weakly.

"I'll do your chores! Let's just play first!" Lily grinned sadly and grabbed my hand. My ice cream fell out of my hands.

"Okay, Lily, what is going on?" I asked. Lily was acting really weird and creepy

"I'll tell you later! Right now, we just got to get out of this stupid place!" Lily screamed.

"What is going on?" I asked again.

"HURRY!" Shrieked Lily. She tugged on my sweater and ran toward her house. People on the streets were staring at us.

"Um, Lily? What's going on?" I asked quietly. We were at least a few blocks from Lily's house.

"Just… HURRY!" Shouted Lily. She turned her head around and stared behind us. "Oh no…" She murmured.

"What?" I demanded.

Lily took off her bag and threw it at me. Then, she took a potion from her pocket. "There's a little inside that bag! Just drink the potion! Just drink it!" Lily widened her eyes and shook me. "HURRY!" She shouted. There was fear in her voice. I could hear it.

I sighed. "What is going on? What is this potion? What's in this bag?" I asked.

"JUST DRINK THE POTION!" Lily shouted. Tears swarmed into her eyes.

"Okay, okay!" I gulped down the 'potion'. It kind of tasted like coconut milk mixed with chunky milk.

"Gross! What is this? Ugh!" I groaned.

"Thank you, Hotaru! Be careful! Just read the note and I promise everything will be fine! Just… be careful!" Lily waved.

"Why are you waving? I-" I felt woozy and fell down. Lily caught me before I fell down to the paved ground.

"What's going on?" I mumbled.

"You'll be all right! Just read the note! Oh, and be careful of those boys!" Lily smiled sadly. Her voice was getting softer and softer. I felt something strange bubble in my stomach. I felt tired and everything turned black.
