A/N: Next installment is here!! I'm updating all three of my stories
tonight!!! :::BIG SMILES!!!::: So without further ado, here is the next
chapter in "It's a Wonderful Life!!"
Toon Lizzie took Lizzie by the hand and led her to one of Hillridge's richest neighborhoods, the one where Kate lived. She hadn't seen Kate's house in years, not since the infamous party in eighth grade, where Kate's cousin Amy invited her friends, and ruined Kate's birthday. Nothing seemed to have changed from the outside. Toon Lizzie took her inside, which looked pretty much the way she remembered it, decorated so nicely, it would put Martha Stewart to shame. She couldn't see what was so bad, until they got upstairs.
"Oh my God, Kate!!" she screamed, but Toon Lizzie pulled her back.
"She can't hear you! You don't exist remember?"
"Oh, right. But the girl is hurting herself! Why would she do that?" She stared in disbelief as she watched the most popular, idolized girl in school take a razor blade and cut her arms. Lizzie's eyes welled up in tears as she saw Kate wipe away the blood, crying uncontrollably.
Toon Lizzie looked at Lizzie and explained. "Kate may be popular, but the truth is, she is harboring a secret that could ruin her life, or she thinks it will. She is afraid people will turn on her and that she will lose everything." Toon Lizzie looked at Lizzie, took her hand and said. "You may not know it yet, but you are the only one that is going to be able to help her. If you go back to your own life, you are going to be the one Kate turns to, the one who will be able to get her the help she needs."
"OK, so can we go home now? I am ready to live. I am ready to accept that there are people out there who need me."
Toon Lizzie shook her head. "We have one more stop to make, we need to visit Claire."
A/N: Finally got this out after months of writer's block on this story. There will be Claire's story, and then the plot twist I have been promising. Read the first chapters carefully, and then guess on what the twist is. R/R but if you can't say something nice, don't say it at all. Happy reading!!!
