Rose, Paige and Tanzi had just turned a corner a couple of streets from Hotel Savant when Paige got the phone call from Zach.

"Hey Zach, did you find Rob at that bar then?" In the background, Paige heard police and ambulance sirens.

"He's dead." Zach said bluntly. "As is Miguel and James."

"What!?" Paige half-shouted, causing Tanzi and Rose to jump. "What the hell happened?"

Zach sounded miserable. "We got into the bar to find Rob fighting Miguel. Miguel was being possessed by Death and he was trying to kill Rob. In the end, Miguel snapped Rob's neck, and then dropped a match into the rack of alcohol. And in that explosion, from what I have gathered, James saved Jenna at the cost of his own life. The ambulance is having trouble with Leslie; he isn't letting go of James." He explained.

Paige furrowed her brow. "We will be there soon, stay put where you are."

"Paige"

The tone of Zach's voice indicated he had something to tell us. "I had a theory about how to defeat Death and the evidence so far indicates I am right."

"What theory?"

"Listen to this. When William died on top of the voice, he said 'Death is here.' Now Death wouldn't say that, would he? And then, William fell of the roof. Now with Miguel, once he dropped the match, Miguel said "It's Death..." Again, something I don't think Death would say."

Paige's eyes widened significantly. "What? So you mean that Death can be defeated by – TANZI!!" Paige shrieked Tanzi's name as she looked out of the front window, seeing a huge lorry heading straight towards their car.


"TANZI!!"

Zach winced on the mobile at the shout, but was worried. "Paige?" no response. "Paige, can you hear me?" he waited for a few seconds, until a loud crunching sound filled the phone. He heard metal grating against metal as well as screams, and then the phone was cut off. "Paige!!" Zach threw his mobile to the ground in frustration. "Shit!"

"What is it?" Jenna asked, looking up from the metal chair she was sitting on that the ambulance had provided.

"I don't know. I think something has happened to Paige, Rose and Tanzi."

"But isn't Leslie next? So they should be fine, right?" Jenna commented.

"I know..." Zach ran a hand through his hair in nervousness. "...but I just can't feel as if something serious has happened.

"... a road accident at St. Mark's Avenue. I repeat, could the nearest please unit please come to a road accident..."

Zach perked his ears at this. 'St. Marks is a few streets away.... could it be...'

"Jenna, come with me, we need to find out if Paige, Rose and Tanzi are okay.

Jenna nodded grimly. "We can take my car"


Paige groaned, picking herself off the street floor. A streak of pain flowed through her arm, and she looked to see a large gash extending from shoulder to wrist. "Fuck..." She muttered, before realising she hadn't seen the others. Paige twisted around painfully to see the wreckage of the car that they had rented out to go to the hospital. The front was completely crushed, bits of metal stick up every way. The boot was also crumpled, but not as much as the bonnet. After the Lorry had hit it, the car had been thrown across the street, turning over and over until it lay on the roof. The lorry itself was thirteen metres away, the driver shaking his head groggily.

'Rose! Tanzi!' Paige thought, panicking. She looked to the front of the car, and saw a arm hanging from the door, blood dripping from the fingertips. Paige crawled over painfully, and almost vomited when she realised that the arm had been separated from the body, which she couldn't see anywhere. Paige recognised the tattoo of vines curling around the pale wrist. 'No... Rose...' Paige looked around, but still could not see any sign of the rest of Rose. However, lying a good few metres away from the car, Tanzi was lying face down on the concrete unmoving. 'N-no... shit... Tanzi...'

Paige got to Tanzi, and rolled her over. She gasped when she saw a shard of metal stuck straight through her stomach, causing blood to stain Tanzi's t-shirt. Even with the devastating injury, Paige could see Tanzi's chest slowly rising up and down. Paige tried to remember her brief medical training, but for the life of her she couldn't remember anything, apart from calling an ambulance. 'Hang on Tanzi... I am not going to let you die now...'


Coughing, Rose slowly opened her eyes. She looked around while lying down, seeing grungy alleyway walls complete with graffiti and litter laying on the floor. "What..." Rose tried to push herself of the floor, but her arm didn't move. She looked to it, and screamed. Rose's arm was gone, only the shoulder remained, bloody and stumped. She gulped, holding back the feeling of vomit from the back of her throat.

"Tut tut tut... looks like you're not in good condition..." A man walked out from the shadows, wearing a tuxedo. "How are you then? Rose?"

"Who the fuck are you?" Rose grunted, and with great effort, used only her knees and left arm to pick herself up from the floor.

"Me? Think about it... I'll give you a little hint. I'm the guy killing you off one by one!"

As Rose's eyes widened in realization, the scene changed. She was standing in snow, and she felt the cold across her legs. Rose shivered as her lips started to turn blue. She looked out to the distance, and quickly deduced she was at some sort of mountain. 'This is Death? Why... What... is he doing in my mind? Could this be... ?' Her thoughts were cut off when she heard a loud rumble, and looked up the mountain to see a wave of snow heading straight towards her. 'An avalanche?!'

The snow engulfed Rose, sweeping her straight off her feet. Bubbles burst from her, and Rose realised that she was now underwater. Bubbles erupted from her mouth she opened it, and Rose scrambled at her throat, feeling the air going from her lungs. Suddenly, blinding pain filled her body, and she saw some sort of shark latched around her leg. Rose tried to swim away, but from lack of energy, she merely flopped around.

'Flopped?' Rose thought before realising that the scene had changed yet again. She was in the middle of a scorching hot desert, and she watched as her skin bubbled and blistered, but this much heat... Rose was now in the middle of a furnace screaming her lungs out, her skin bubbling, melting and falling of her bones.

"Well? Had enough yet? Submit to me!" Death said, facing Rose, who was face down on the floor of blackness.

"W-what... what do you... want..." Rose asked, gritting her teeth at the pain flowing through her veins.

"Your life, you mind, that sort of thing." Death grinned.

"You want to possess me?! Just like you did with William Bludworth ?"

"And Miguel Custado..." Death said, looking at his fingertips.

"You got him as well? Well let me tell you, you are not getting..."

"YES I AM!! Death roared, throwing his fist at Rose's heart, and plunging it straight through her chest. Instantly, the mentality of Rose disappeared. Death had succeeded in possessing her.

(O.O Rose!! Poor poor Rose. She lost an arm and she is also possessed. And what about Tanzi? What is her condition? and Paige... what is her reaction to her missing friend!! On that bombshell, till next time where the end will start to begin!!!)
