(Okay, thanks FrostyFlakes, Can't Get Any Better, Mr. Pancho2012, The New Divide, protecter91, mentosgoboom, and Angie2282 for your review. Prepare for another twist did chapter, which i am taking a very big risk on, as it may not work O.o I know the chapter is short, but to make up for that, i will be posting an other chapter tommorow which will be around the same length. Anywho, read on!!)
"Paige!" Tanzi exclaimed, eyes wide. "What are you... you fell off the cliff... you died... why are you... what the hell!" she spluttered, completely confused.
"That's right." Zach agreed. "You were in the jeep, and you went off the cliff, bleeding a lot. There was no way that you could have survived that."
"Well, I am here, aren't I?" Paige replied. "But I guess I should tell you the whole story. Take a seat, and I can fill you in, after that, you can fill me in.
While everyone caught up with Paige; Leardel, Emma and William were talking privately.
"We want you, William, to come with us."
"Come with you?" William repeated. "Whatever do you mean?" William smiled.
"You know perfectly well what I mean, William."
"Sorry, Leardel, but I have to decline."
"What!? Why!?"
"You see..." Paige started, taking a deep breath. "When I fell off the cliff, I managed to get out of the jeep. I hit the water, but I was still alive. I fought with the waves, and managed to get to the beach, before I was pulled back. As I was about to die, Leardel came to me in her boat, and rescued me. We didn't get along at first, because she said I owed my life to her, so I must stay with her. We eventually became friends, and we talked a lot about Death, and that was when I found out that I was famous in the 'Death Experts'." Paige let out a laugh.
"I was in the top five of the list. First it was William Bludworth, and then Leardel, third was me, then it was Emma who you just met. In fifth place, Lauren Halperin."
"Halperin?" Tanzi questioned, furrowing her brow. "Where have I heard that name before."
"Ashley Halperin, from the Devils Flight Rollercoaster. Lauren is her sister. Just like the rest of the experts, she has been chased by Death for a long time."
"Other survivors? What, so William is a survivor?" Jade asked.
"Yes, didn't he tell you? He was present at all the disasters, from Flight 180 to the recent Emporium Stadium Collapse."
"He was there?!" Tanzi exclaimed. "I never saw him! Not in my premonition nor in the crowd."
"Well, he was, and he escaped all of them, the crafty little bugger. Although, there is something unique about William."
"Unique?" Lacey asked. "What's unique about him?"
"The fact that he doesn't visibly age. At the moment he is around 100 years old."
Tanzi, Zach, Jade, and Lacey gasped, even more than when Paige revealed herself.
"O-O-One hundred years old! Holy shit!" Jade exclaimed. "He looks around 45, 50."
"What is with him then? Why is he like that?"
Paige turned serious for the moment. "We believe, that is, me, Leardel, and Emma, that William has been sacrificing people to Death, so that he gains a lifeforce."
"You what?" Zach said. "That... that... crap..." He suddenly realised something, at the same time that Lacey, Tanzi and Jade did. The four exchanged glances.
"What?" Paige asked, looking concerned.
Zach breathed deeply, before relaying the mission that William has set them on.
Paige sat down, chewing her lip. "Okay... this doesn't look good... Tell you what. Don't say anything that we have talked about to him, act like you don't know. Go with the mission, but if he makes any move, ANY move at all, don't be scared to act."
"What about you, Paige?" Tanzi asked.
"Me?"
"Are you coming with us, or..."
Paige contemplated it for a moment. "I'll have to talk to Leardel about it. Maybe I can make the excuse that I'm acting as a kind of spy to keep William on check."
The door clicked open, and Rose walked in. "Sorry that took so long, there was a magazine in the cubicles that was quite interesting." Rose said, feeling slightly awkward that everyone was staring at her. "What?"
"Rose." Paige started. "Don't you remember me?"
"Hmm? I've never met you before, I only saw... you... in... Wait a moment, did you say your name was Paige? What's your last name?" Rose narrowed her eyes.
"Calloway, do you really not remember me?"
"Paige! My god, it's been like a year and a few months since I last saw you! But, I thought you died? I had to go to a funeral for you."
"A funeral for me?" Paige questioned, slightly amused. "Who arranged that?"
"Your parents did, as they believed you were dead."
"We never heard of any funeral for Paige." Tanzi commented.
"That's because her parents only invited her closest friends and relatives."
"Well? Why do you decline, William?" Leardel demanded again.
"Leardel, I am going to have to tell you something, so please, listen."
(Well, obviously, William being 100 years old for serving Death is my next twist. I think it is realistic for Final Destination, but i would love the reviewers, your, views on this. I appreciate all views, good or bad. Thanks! So what is with Williams mission to spill the survivor's blood. Ominous, ain't it! Have fun until tommorow!)
