Shadow POV

No!

You'll never be alone!

When darkness comes

I'll light the night with stars

Hear the Whispers in the dark!

You'll never be alone!

When darkness comes

You I'm never far!

Hear the Whispers in the dark!

That's what it felt like for me. I don't think that anyone but the girl that I love could save my life with a simple kiss that said she was scared shitless for me.

No one….in the entire…world.

What happened is that I quickly sprang up and released my wings. I felt better, and the hole didn't hurt anymore. I looked over at Jill who was smiling like she got a pony and it was her fourth birthday. Except it had the slight quirk to it that only she could have, and that my friend is probably one of the prettiest smiles ever. I decide at that point that as long as I was alive, she was to live. No one could take her place. I would actually rather have Asher or Krystal die, not that I wanted either of them to.

I looked at Jeb. He had a cowardly expression and rightfully so. This whole fiasco, he was behind it all. He was the mastermind as he was every single damn time. I really cannot believe that he is my father. He is nothing like me. I go over to him, and I grab a samurai sword. Then, I utter the last word he will ever hear: "Goodbye" I raise the sword and bring it down with force.

There was an explosion, and the whole building was already falling. Someone was bombing the building!

Quickly, we all jumped out, the ones who could fly, and we left Jeb for dead. There was no way that he would be able to survive the next explosion caused by the building itself. He was a just a normal human, and I wonder why he never experimented on himself.

Anyways, we got out of there and landed onto the building right beside it. We were huffing and puffing. We were all out of breath, and we did not even find one single thing out about ourselves. So, I guess that we have to say goodbye to Max and the gang.

I suck at goodbyes, even for when it's only going to be sixteen hours or something. We all looked at each other like we knew that this moment was coming that we have known for the past week. I really didn't want to say goodbye to my other sister Max or to Fang or any of them. This was truly heart breaking as it is. I feel like I have known these guys since the second grade and now I am just supposed to leave them. It will be just back to the four of us, me Jill, Krystal and Asher. And they will go back to just seven, if you count Total.

"So, I guess, that his is goodbye so…..goodbye." The way that Jill said it, I wanted to cry, except I have not cried in ten years. But she sounded so heartbroken and I really do not blame her I mean, she has gon through so much shit in the past week or so that I don't even know how she is still sane, and the only reason I am is because I'm Shadow Martinez. That's right; I am keeping that as my last name.

We were just about to say goodbye, when someone held a gun to Asher's head. Oh goddammit! She said that if either of us move, she will blow this building up and it will create an explosion so big that the whole country of France will be no longer existent, and I was not intent on finding out if she was bluffing or not.

Then, she pointed at Jill, and she tossed Asher aside.

BAM! My heart stopped. But instead of Jill falling to the ground, the bomber lady fell, with a bullet hole in her head, and behind her was the pure blonde wonder-Brittney. She had come through for us, and to that, we owed her our life.

"OH MY GOD!" Krystal exclaimed.

"I'm so glad that that wasn't my head." Asher stated.

Then, we heard the dreaded gunshot again. My stomach hurt, and Krystal began to sob.

We held our breath when the clouds began to form

But you were lost in the beating of the storm

And in the end we were made to be apart

In separate chambers of the human heart

Oooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh

I'm swimming in the smoke

Of bridges I have burned

So don't apologize

I'm losing what I don't deserve

What I don't deserve
