Epilogue
A Month Later
The sun was settling, hues of pink and blue washed down upon the sparkling surface of the crystal clear lake. Annabel sat with Nicolas and Clear at a river side restaurant, enjoying the feel of the night. For a month, Annabel and Nicolas had been living with Alex's parents -as well as Clear-, recovering from all that had happened. Annabel decided that she didn't want to return to Pasadena and had gotten the "okay" to say with her aunt and uncle for as long as she wanted. Nicolas had also decided to stay with Annabel, due to the fact that they had started dating a few weeks ago. Clear, having nowhere else to go, had also moved in with the Brownings, who were happy to have them because they filled up the empty house.
As the moon began to appear in the sky, Annabel thought back to a month ago when she had seen the clear moon and the red sunset. That day could have ended in disaster but luckily it didn't.
Thinking back to that day stirred an unanswered question in Annabel's mind. She turned to face Clear, who was staring at the sky.
"Clear, are we safe? I mean, all of us, from Death?" Annabel asked, still attempted to put the pieces together. She had intervened to save Nicolas and then Clear but so far nothing had happened to her. It was almost as though Death had skipped her but Annabel knew better.
"I think so, since nothing has happened in so long. I think we're all safe." Clear answered.
Annabel wanted to accept Clear's answer but she couldn't. Deep in the back of her mind, a vision was forming and it showed a bleak future for all of them. Including herself.
