A/N: Thank you guys for all of the continued support. Normally, I like to get these chapters out asap- but recently I've realized that it's quality over quantity. Let me please ask this one time.

I really enjoy feedback and/or compliments, it really helps me keep going. But it really puts a lot of pressure on a person when people keep asking when the next chapter is going to be out. My goal is to update at least once every other, but please understand- I am in high school, and on top of the homework, I am on the spiritline team for it. I have a lot of work on my plate so I try to balance it all- so please understand. I am happy that you guys are anxious for the next chapter release though :)

Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy this chapter. Happy reading!

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS IN IT

One day, they weren't there. The next, they were.

Skin the color of soft snow. Skin as cold as the devil's heart. Skin as hard as the pit in my stomach.

All in a sun's fall in the night, they had come.

The pain in my right leg was biting, steadily growing deadlier by the second. The cold grew fast and the warmth left quickly.

Breathe. Out. In. Repeat.

I watched her as the sun reflected off of her glasses. If only she knew the pain. How it came out of nowhere. How the glasses would shatter.

Breathe.

She was dead. But I am alive.

Breathe.

The hall felt empty where I stood. Every footprint I made seemed to disappear behind me, until I was no one. There was no one. Where was I? Unknown.

The music blared through my eardrums, and I drowned. Cold tile under my feet. I wasn't sleeping, but I wasn't awake.

Breathe.

Yes. I realize this chapter was shorter than the rest of a 99 year old's life, but there is a reason for that! Stories take time. So please give me mine. Nothing else would fit into this chapter! So believe me, you don't want me to type in a bunch of shit I just make up like the three AM monster energy essays I write for school. So thank you for bearing with me.

Xo,

P.S. I am writing on the app episode now! I just finished my first episode of something called the Endless Abyss, so check it out in a few days (fingers crossed!)
