…

"Benny! Is it really you?"

Can it really be him? Can we really find each other and get out of here?

"Ethan! Where are you?"

"If I knew, I would tell you. All I see is dark fog."

"Same here. Try to move towards my voice."

"That's easier said than done! Your voice is radiating all around me."

"Like an echo?"

"Exactly."

"Yours is the same way too."

"Great."

"No need to be sarcastic."

"Really? You can't think of any freakin' reason why I shouldn't be sarcastic right now? No reason at all?"

"At least you're not possessed by a demon!"

"At least you're still around! I'm freakin' unconscious thanks to said demon!"

"Oh. Right."

"Yeah."

"At least we're together right?" I hear a sliver of hope in my friend's voice, and I remember what the demon said about Benny liking me. Could he really… "Ethan? You okay? Are you there!?" Now he's panicking.

"Yeah, I'm here."

"I'm gonna try to find you. Keep talking to me, just don't move, okay?"

"Okay."

…

Grandma looked at Ethan's still form, worry lines creasing her face. His parents were beginning to ask questions, wondering what was going on with their son. She had made up some excuse, but she didn't think it would hold them off much longer.

She had to find some way to save everyone, as usual, before it was too late.

But she wasn't sure she could this time.

…

"Benny!" Sarah called out, walking towards him; he was currently sitting on the back of Chaz's motorcycle, obviously waiting for him. "I need to talk to you. Right now."

"I'm busy," he said, not even looking at her.

"Please. I know you're not exactly… yourself, but I need to talk to you."

"Ugh. What is with you people?! You're all so determined. I really should've done my research before getting this body," he grumbled, shooting her a glare. "What do you want?"

"Please, can I talk to you? Monster to monster?" He looked at her and nodded before getting off the bike.

"What is it?" Sarah took a deep breath, hoping her plan would work. She calmed herself and looked at him, eyes slightly glowing. He took a shaky step back from her, but didn't go too far. Her pull was already working.

"What did you do to Ethan?"

"Why would I…" his threat faltered as her stare intensified.

"What. Did. You. Do?" Sarah asked, voice slowing and deepening a bit, her eyes glowing more.

"I put him …." He said, his voice sounding dazed and confused.

"Where. Did. You. Put. Him?"

"In the dark."

"How. Can. I. Save. Him?"

"You can't."

"Why. Not?"

"Only Benny can."

"What. Do. You. Mean?"

"He's with Benny. Only Benny can get him out."

"How. Can. Benny. Get. Him. Out?"

"They are the only two who can save each other."

"How?"

"Ethan can get out thanks to Benny and then Ethan can save him."

"How. Can. Benny. Get. Ethan. Out?"

"By helping him see."

"See. What?"

"How strong they are… together."

Sarah had to control herself from smiling. She could help them yet!

"Can. I. Talk. To. Him?"

"Yes."

"How?"

"Whisper in his ear. He'll hear you."

"You. Won't. Remember. Any. Of. This. This conversation. Never. Happened," she whispered now, making him nod.

"Never happened."

"Now." She watched as Benny shook his head and looked at her as she blinked.

"What did you want to talk about?"

"Nothing. Just forget it," she said, turning on her heel. "Enjoy your life, demon."

"Enjoy yours, bloodsucker." She hissed at him and darted away. "Whatever," he mumbled, rolling his eyes.

People in this town were so weird.

…

Sarah had told Grandma what she had learned. Grandma, ecstatic, smiled at the young women.

"Well then, talk to him!" Sarah nodded and crouched down next to Ethan's still form.

"Ethan," she whispered, her lips almost touching the shell of his ear. "You and Benny can save each other. Together, you two are strong enough to stop the demon. Play to your strengths. You two can do this. Save each other."

She hoped he heard her.

…

"Ethan." I jolted at the voice. That definitely wasn't Benny. It almost sounded like…

Sarah.

"You and Benny can save each other. Together, you two are strong enough to stop the demon. Play to your strengths. You two can do this. Save each other."

Sarah! She's talking to me! I can hear her!

"Benny! Did you hear that?!"

"No. Hear what?!"

"Sarah. She said something… She's said something about us saving each other."

"What?"

"Find me Benny! We can help each other!"

"I'm trying E! Keep talking to me!"

"You sound like you're getting closer."

"I'm trying! You sound closer too. Are you moving?"

"I don't think so."

"Wait! I think… I think I see you!"

"You do?! Wait… I might see you too! Keep moving." I try to move towards the shadowy outline that I saw, smiling when I propelled forward some.

"Ethan! It's you!" Benny cried out as he saw me.

"Benny!" Benny practically tackled me, wrapping his arms tightly around me. "You're okay."

"It's really you," he muttered into my hair, hugging me tighter. "It's really you."

"It's really me."

…

"Ethan," I whisper to him, feeling emotion swell up in me. I need to let him know, before I lose him again.

"Yeah?" he says, looking at me. I smile softly at him and lean down a bit.

"Don't freak, okay?"

"O-okay…" I give him a reassuring smile before leaning down a bit.

Then, I press my lips to his.

…

Boo-yah! How about that for an ending?

I hope ya'll liked it.

Thanks for reading so far.

See ya'll next time.
