Chapter 33 – Heartless

(In Alison's house)

Emily concerned. – "Ali… Are you ok?"

The brunette was under the point to touch Alison but the blonde avoided her touch and ran to her house very fast, she entered in the house and Emily walked behind her but the blonde closed the door in her face. Emily was knocking the door and asking to get in as Alison collapsed against her door and kneel leaning her head on the door and putting her hands over her heart.

Emily. – "Ali… Ali… let me in… we need to talk!"

Alison. – "No! Whatever you need to say, say it from there!"

Emily. – "Ali…"

Alison yelled. – "You want to talk! This is the only way!"

Emily sighed and she sat on the floor and she used the door as support. They stood in silence for a moment and both girls found themselves sat against the door in the same posture, the only thing separating both, it was the door and in that posture they had a talk.

*** Music Moment: Turning pages by The strange familiar***

Alison. – "Did you leave?"

Emily. – "I'm here…"

Alison. – "Ohh…"

Emily hesitated to ask, but she did it with a shaky voice. – "Ali… you're not running away again isn't?"

Alison sighed. – "I don't handle well death but the 1st time that I ran away it was because yes I was scared of death but also because I don't handle well feelings… but I'm not like that anymore… I'm trying at least…"

Emily asked with a shaky voice. – "So… you're not running away right…?"

Alison sighed. – "No Emily… I'm not running away…"

Emily. – "Oh… ok… Thank you…"

Alison. – "Is that the reason why you're here?"

Emily. – "I'm here to apologize… I'm incredibly sorry for the way I treated you… but not only for today…"

Alison. – "What do you mean?"

Emily. – "I'm here to apologize for everything else too… I'm sorry for losing my temper every time that I see you with someone else and don't control my jealousy… I'm sorry for not working harder to found you sooner… I'm sorry for treating you as my property… I'm sorry…"

Tears appeared in Emily's face and Alison could hear the brunette crying.

Emily said with tears. – "I'm sorry I didn't tell you 'I love you' at the beginning when I knew I did… and most of all… I'm sorry to give up on us when you never did…"

Alison. – "Thank you …"

They stood quiet for a while, Emily was going to say something but Alison started to talk.

Alison. – "I would never think that we'd come to be like this… Do you remember all the things that we wanted? All the memories Emily, do you remember Emily?"

Emily. – "Yes…"

Alison sighed and a tear appeared in her cheek. – "It's fucking tragic that it came to this…"

Emily. – "Ali…"

Alison. – "How long it takes to know that too much is just too much? Too much fun… too much love… too much pain and when is too much to bear…?"

Emily. – " I don't know…"

They stood in silence for a moment and Emily decided to clarify some things between them.

Emily. – "Ali… about Talia…"

Alison. – "You didn't cheat on me with her… I don't know if you know it but… nothing happen… but about the other blonde…"

Emily. – "Nothing happen too! Sarah took the picture as I was drunk! I didn't kiss her! I…"

Alison. – "It's fine Emily… I don't care about what happen with Sarah…"

Emily. – "Why you don't care?! How could you stop?!"

Alison. – "I remember kindness… love… betrayal… I remember what it was like to be a person… to love… be loved… but I don't feel it... not right now… I feel empty these days… I just… I can't be near Aria, or Spencer or…"

Emily. – "ME?! You can't be near me?! Ali please! I know that a part of you it's missing us, your friends, I know that being back here, it reminds you how much we need you, how much I need you… Ali… I'm so sorry for what happen… I.."

Alison. – "You couldn't prevent it Emily… what is done is done and I would prefer to don't talk about it…"

Emily. – "Ali… I didn't torture you… it wasn't me… you know that right?!"

Alison. – "I know…"

They stood in silence for a moment and then once again, Emily started the talk.

Emily asked with fear. – "Did they hurt you badly…? Did they rap***….?"

Alison. – "No one rap*** me…. their torture was more psychological… they wanted to break me… I guess that their goal was to turn me against all of you…"

Emily. – "Well obviously they fail… you're here… you didn't break…"

Alison. – "I put my mind on a safe place…"

Emily. – "Where?"

Alison sighed. – "When things came to be too bad, too painful, there was one place I went in my mind… you… it was you… you were my safe place…"

Emily smiled under the confession of the blonde, she wanted too badly to hug her right now, she felt so happy knowing that Alison didn't stop thinking about her and that in a way she could give her any comfort to the blonde in that difficult times but all that happiness dropped to the ground when Alison continued talking.

Alison sighed. – "But the time passed and I started to wish I was dead… I turned off my emotions… to don't feel anything anymore… and you wanna know the best part? I didn't even care…"

Emily. – "Ali…"

*** Music Moment: Goodbye My lover by James Blunt***

Alison. - "You were my safe place Emily but not anymore… I can't control myself anymore and I don't trust you… A few months ago I convinced you that we could have it all, to have each other… but I was wrong…"

Emily cried. – "No you were not wrong! We're not done!"

Alison. – "Emily… I can't control myself, we don't trust in each other and I can't distinguish what is real and what is not…"

Emily cried. – "This is real! You and me! This heart beating for you! This heart loving you! I'm real! Our love is real! I love you and you love me and…"

Alison sighed. – "Maybe everything would be different if even a tiny piece of you could have trusted on me…"

Emily. – "I'm sorry…"

Alison. – "Stop! Stop it! I'm done hearing you saying that!" (Sighs) "Right now… I'm just exhausted Emily with what happen with –A and you…" (Tears) "Hating you is the most exhausting…!"

Emily gulped. – "I know… I can deal with that... but you need to know that I lo…"

Alison said with tears in her face. – "I don't want to hate you anymore…I wish we could make everything like it used to be, but I guess I'm old enough to know we can't…"

Emily. – "Ali… I lo…"

Alison. – "Emily I don't want to be with someone who doesn't trust me… I'm tired of you don't trusting me… I'm returning the ring Emily…"

Emily. – "What?!"

Alison. – "The engagement ring that I bought you… I'm returning it…" (Sighs) "I'm returning it because I'm letting you go Emily… I want you to move on and find your happy ending with someone else…"

Emily stood speechless and only tears appeared in her face.

Alison. – "You kept me alive Emily, our love kept me alive… And I will be always grateful with you for being my light in the darkness… I think that the worse things happened already and I didn't die but I've to find a way to move on with my life…"

Emily mumbled. – "So what does that mean…?"

Alison. – "It means that I can't be with you Emily… I'm fucked up and that is not fair for either of us…"

Emily. – "I'm a mess without you… I completely fall apart when you're not with me…!"

Alison. – "You will be ok Emily… you don't need me… you will be fine…"

Emily cried. – "Ali… please… don't give up! You can't give up on us! That's what makes you… YOU!

Alison sighed. – "Emily… living without you it's the hardest thing for me too but there's not fixing this… we have to get each other go… Emily, I only want you to be happy so you need to find someone who will love you and have a happy life with you…"

Emily. – "I already found that person… she's standing right now against this door…"

Alison. – "Emily… I know that this may sounds crazy but this is the best for you… I'm doing this for you… Emily I want you to be happy; I'm just sorry it couldn't be with me…"

Emily cried. – "I don't want to let you go…"

Alison cried. – "I don't wanna let you go too but I'm already gone…"

Emily cried and curled against the door. – "Ali!"

Alison cleared her tears and said as she stood up. – "Good bye my friend…. Good bye my love… Good night Emily…"

Alison stood up and left to her room. The lights of the house went off but Emily stood still there, sitting in front of the door for a long moment. She was looking to the stars of the sky as the tears didn't stop to fall from her eyes.

Emily said to herself. – "I still love you… It might be too late for me to say it and to become the woman that you deserve but I still love you and I can't imagine the day I won't…"

The brunette continued there, contemplating the sky under the roof of her beloved.

(The next day in the mall)

Alison went back to the jewelry shop.

The vendor. – "Hello, I remember you… what can I do for you?"

Alison froze in front of the vendor as she just grabbed the ring box in her pocket.

The vendor. – "So what brought you here?"

Alison gave him a sad smile with watery-eyes when she put the ring box with shaky hands in the table.

After a while, the blonde was getting out of the jewelry shop, she didn't notice that someone else saw her from the distance.

Hanna. – "Alison?!"

(In Spencer House)

Aria. – "So what are we doing here? What is the emergency?!"

Spencer. – "I don't know… you will have to ask Hanna… it was she who organized the meeting… and why in my house?"

Aria. – "I don't know… you will have to ask Hanna…"

Spencer just glanced to her friend as she imitated her with her own words. In a short time, Hanna arrived.

Hanna. – "Everything is so fucked up!"

Spencer. – "What happen?"

Hanna. – "I think that she returned the ring!"

Spencer. – "Who? What ring?"

Hanna. – "Come on Spence, you're supposed to be the smart one! Who do you think that I'm talking about?!"

Spencer. – "I don't know… that's why I asked you!"

As the two girls were standing their gaze, it hit it to Aria what was the subject.

Aria said as she put a hand in her mouth. – "OMG! Ali?! Did she return the ring?!"

Hanna pointing out Aria and said. – "See… it was so hard to guess?! Even the little one got it faster than you!"

Spencer huffed.

Aria said with tears. – "OMG… this is my fault…"

Spencer approached and patted and rubbed Aria's back as she said. – "It's not your fault; if anything… it's my fault… I convinced all of you that it was Alison who drugged me…"

The two brunettes were comforting each other when Hanna applauded between the two of them in order to have their attention.

Hanna. – "Hey! This is not about you two ok! We screwed two of our best friends and we need to do something about it!"

Aria. – "But what we can do? Alison doesn't let us be even one meter of distance from her and Emily barely speaks with us…"

Hanna pointing out Spencer and snapped her fingers to her

Spencer. – "Hey don't snap me!"

Hanna. – "Well say something! I came here because you're the one with ideas!"

Spencer gave her the look and then she started to think. – "We need to know what is happening with Alison…"

Aria. – "How?"

Spencer. – "She's going to therapy… maybe in her file there will be something that can give us a hunch of what is happening in her mind…"

Hanna. – "Good, even without –A; we continue being like spies…"

The other two just rolled out their eyes and they just leave together.

(In the hospital of Rosewood)

Alison was happy talking with her mom, Mary just looked at her and she asked Alison to approach and hug her, Alison did it and the blonde stood close to Mary as Mary was caressing Alison's face. They were looking each other with warm and lovely eyes.

Mary. – "Are you eating well?"

Alison said with a smile. – "Yes… I'm… I'm a great chef… when you get out of here I will prepare you the best diner of your life!"

Mary took a deep breath and grabbed Alison's hand and putted them in her chest as she said.

Mary. – "I love you…"

Alison. – "I love you too mom…"

Mary. – "I'm your biological mother that's a far as a really being your mom goes… I haven't earned that you call me 'mom' and I'm sorry for that…" (Tears appeared in her eyes)

Alison said with watery-eyes. – "Mom… don't cry, don't say that…it's ok…. You're my mom…."

Mary said with tears. – "No, it's not ok Ali… a mother should be there for her child every day, no matter what… I should be there for you… make sure that you felt loved, that you felt safe… that you had someone to rely on for guidance and reassurance… I have failed to do that for you… and I'm so sorry… I wanted to give you a real childhood… I wanted to give you that gift… that's why I left…"

Alison. – "Mom, it's ok… I forgive you… I love you…"

Mary stood there trying to memories every millimeter of Alison's face and printed it in her heart forever, she took a deep breath again and said…

*** Music moment: Open Hands by Ingrid Michaelson***

Mary smiled. – "Ali… study hard… keep your grades up… starting your senior year you're gonna need to take some extra curriculum activities by semester if you want to get into a decent college…"

Alison confused mumbled with tears. – "Mom… what are you saying…?"

Mary. – "Don't be lazy in your studies Ali, think in your future and all the good that you can do in the world with the proper education… eat well, do some sport, sports are good for the body… college is approaching and a lot of work and duties will arrive but don't let that to overwhelm you, I know that you will get the routine down in a short period of time…"

Alison said with tears. – "Mom… can we not have this conversation….?"

Mary. – "Oh… this might sound random but use always underwear, no matter if the dress is too tight, it's a little slutty not to…"

Alison mumbled with tears. – "Mom…"

Mary. – "And also marry a kind girl, one who's nice to her mother, now if for the each of 30, she continues living with her mother, you run in the opposite way ok…"

Alison. – "Mom… I'm not getting married…"

Mary. – "You will someday, and when that day comes, just have one glass of champagne, and then you drink water for the rest of the night because there's nothing tackier than a drunken bride…"

Alison mumbled. – "Mom… I don't…" (More tears) "Why are you telling me all this right now?"

Mary sighed. – "Darling, I'm having a major surgery this afternoon and I…"

Alison started to understand what was happening and she burst to tears and turned in other direction.

Mary. – "Darling, Ali… listen to me… look at me…"

Alison shook her head as she continued crying.

Mary. – "Ali… look at me… this is important…"

Alison snobs and turned towards her mother again.

Mary. – "Ali… remember that's your good-nature, your big heart what bring you luck, don't forget that ok, so I want you to promise me that if you love someone you tell them, even if you're scared that it's not the right thing or the right timing, even if you're scared that it'll cause problems… even if you're scared that it will burn your life to the ground… you say it, you say it loud and then you go from there…"

Alison cried. – "Mom…"

Mary. – "Ali… promise me…"

Alison nodded. – "I promise…"

Mary. – "Oh… this one is really the important one, so keep attention ok…"

Alison nodded with tears.

Mary. – "Someday you're gonna have a baby and you're gonna feel overwhelmed by this little life that you're responsible for and you're gonna think and worry that everything you do is wrong and that's normal… you're gonna obsess about how to feed him and where to send him to school and whether it should take violin or piano, but I'm gonna let you in on a little old secret: it doesn't matter… whether your kid is a concert pianist or a math genius or a campion swimmer, it just doesn't matter because at the end of the day all that matters is if your kid is happy…"

Alison continued crying and she hugged her mom, they were hugging and crying as Mary continued talking.

Mary. – "So you're going to feel sad for a little while and that's ok, that's fine… but don't feel sad forever ok! You can promise me that?! You can promise me that you won't feel sad for too long?"

Alison didn't break the hug; she just cuddled on her mother.

Alison nodded and said. – "I promise…"

Mary put a soft kiss in Alison head and said. – "Thank you that make me feel much better…" (Tears) "Your Dad and I will keep turning back to look at you ok… we will always keep an eye on you ok…"

Alison just cried and didn't stop hugging her mother until the doctors took her to surgery.

The blonde was a mess of nerves so she decided to look for her therapist.

(Outside the office of Dr. Violet Turner)

Alison was arriving to the building; she wanted to see if she could talk a moment with Dr. Turner. As she was waiting the elevator, she got surprised when the doors opened and saw the girls in there; when she saw them, she pulled away as the flashes of torture came to her mind; she was walking backwards trying to calm down when one of the girls started to talk.

Spencer. – "Ali… are you having those flashes right now?"

Alison snapped when she heard that comment, she couldn't understood how they knew about it; then her eyes got bigger when she noticed that Hanna's hand was grabbing a file with her name.

Alison yelled with anger. – "Did you steal my file?! Did you read it?!"

The three girls just gulped

Aria. – "Ali… we were just trying to understand and help…"

Alison huffed and started to walk away from the building and the girls followed her.

Spencer. – "Ali… wait… why you didn't tell us?!"

Alison yelled. – "What! That I'm suffering PSTD! That I come here every day to debate with myself because I'm so fucked up…" (She smirked with an ironic tone as she glanced) "Jes… Spence… why I didn't update my facebook page to 'Fucking damaged'!"

Hanna saw the classic smirks of the old Alison and said. – "Well, it's nice to know that the old Alison is still there…"

Aria. – "Hanna!"

Alison huffed and continued walking towards her car but Spencer stopped her.

Spencer. – "Ali wait! We just want to help you… we're happy to know that you didn't give up on our friendship…"

Alison yelled. – "You're wrong! Right now; I just did!" (She glanced to the girls with a lethal look and they froze) "You think that I don't see the way everybody looks at me, the way half the town looks at me! You're not different! Love & friendship are not a fairytale; respect and fear are the best you can hope for… that's what I learned for trusting YOU!"

Spencer. – "Ali…"

Alison yelled. – "I never mean be down this path but at some point I just found myself on it… I asked just one thing from you 'Loyalty' and what I receive was 'betray'… I may forgive you one day but I will never forget…"

They didn't know what to say, they stood there in silence

Alison yelled. - "Being your friend… I'm over it! So back off! Don't follow me!"

The blonde entered to her car and left the three girls there.

Hanna punched Spencer's arm and said. – "I'm never coming again to ask for your ideas… it just fucked up more the situation!"

Spencer just huffed and they went to her car.

(In the hospital of Rosewood)

*** Music moment: The Call by Ruu Campbell***

Alison came back to the hospital and after a while Mary came back from surgery but she was with a ventilator in her mouth, Alison overhead one conversation of the nurses and it hit her what happened; all her word just froze again and she sat in a chair with a lost look which just showed tears… She was sitting in a chair waiting for the doctor to come, she was lost in her thoughts until the doctor arrived and sat beside her.

Doctor. – "Miss DiLaurentis, there is some things you need to know… some things that we need to discuss… difficult things"

Alison took a deep breath before saying. – "My brother is in a similar situation… I know how this works… you will wait the requisite number of hours and then you can officially declare her dead… normally you will talk about organ donation but by what I heard from the nurses, there's not much left that works to donate so… I guess you need her bed for another patient… so I guess you're here to talk me about the decision to do with my mother… now that she's dead… but not really dead… do we ship her off to a long-term care facility as my brother Jason and cross our fingers and hope for fairy tales and magic… or do I pull the pluck… stop all curative intervention… discontinue all routine monitoring; remove all the catheters, drains and tubes…. And any and all treatments that may provide comfort to her… terminate all… all life staining measures…" (She looked to the doctor in the eyes and said with a sad and angry tone) "Does that cover all Doctor?!" (Tears started to fall from her blue cloudy eyes) "Is that what you want to talk to me about…?! While I sit here… you want to talk about killing my mom!"

Doctor gulped. – "Miss DiLaurentis… your mother… before the interventation… she signed a DNR…"

Alison stood speechless for a moment

Doctor. – "Miss DiLaurentis…"

Alison gulped. – "You don't need to say more… I know what that means… can I… can I be there when…"

Doctor. – "Off course… please follow me…"

(In Jail)

Some guards were doing their round and they stopped in one empty cell.

Guard 1. – "This cell is empty… who should be here…? Where is she?"

Guard 2. – "It's the cell of one of the newbies… I will check…"

(In the hospital of Rosewood)

*** Music moment: In my Veins by Andrew Belle***

Alison was grabbing Mary's hand and she was standing up beside her bed, the nurse arrived and she started to unplug and turn off all the equipment. When the nurse approached to pull out the tube of the ventilator which was allowing to Mary to breathe, the blonde said…

Alison. – "Wait!"

Nurse. – "Miss…"

Alison yelled. – "Just wait!"

The nurse pull away and Alison approached to Mary until their front-head were leaning together. The blonde was caressing with one hand the cheek of Mary and the other was still grabbing her hand.

Alison whispered. – "Mary… mom… mom… mom it's ok… you go and I will be fine… I promise"

The blonde's tears fell on Mary's face as Alison put a last kiss in Mary's front-head. Alison pulls away and stood up beside as she continued grabbing Mary's hand.

Nurse. – "Miss… Are you ready?"

Alison sighed. – "No… but go ahead…"

The nurse plugged out the tube and the heart-monitor started to show a plate line and a continuous bip. The nurse left and Alison stood there like a statue for a long time…

(In the parking of the hospital of Rosewood)

As Alison was going out of the hospital, she was walking towards her car when someone approached.

Emily. – "Ali… I heard that your mom got worse… how is she?"

Alison gulped. – "She's dead… she's dead Emily…"

Emily's heart felt broken as she saw Alison like that, with a huge pain writing in her face. The blonde resumed her path and she was opening her car's door when the brunette started to speak.

Emily. – "Ali… Stop! Stop! Stop! Don't go like that… if you have to leave anywhere… let me drive you… let me come with you…"

Alison said with an empty look as she saw the brunette in the eyes. – "I appreciate your concern but no…"

Alison tried to enter in her car but once again Emily stopped her when she put her hand over Alison's hand which was leaning in the car's door.

Emily. – "Ali… I know that you don't appreciate anything today but I don't care… whatever you're going through… I want to be there for you…"

Alison. – "We talked about this… you… you're NOT my girlfriend!"

Emily. – "But I'm me… and you're you… we're Alison and Emily… Emily and Alison… the worse thing you've ever done… the darkest thought you've ever had… I will stand by you through anything!"

Alison said with a bitter tone. – "And why would you do that?!"

Emily said with a soft voice. – "Because… I LOVE YOU"

Alison stood Emily's gaze for a while, she felt something warm inside her as she heard that words from her and as she saw a lot of love in those brown eyes.

Alison snapped and said with a bitter tone. – "Well, that's too bad! Because I don't lo.. I don't lo…"

Emily. – "You can't say it, isn't it?! You can't say it because deep down you still love me… Ali… please… let me help you… let me be at your side in these moments…"

Alison grabbed Emily's collar and yelled. – "And how are you gonna help me?! Ah?! How…?!"

Emily gulped; she didn't know actually how to help her. Alison snapped, she changed completely of personality.

*** Music moment: The Devil within by Digital Daggers***

Alison pushed Emily against her car and kissed her with anger. It was a bitter kiss and Emily felt it.

Emily murmured as she saw a darker look in the blonde. – "Ali… what are you doing?"

Alison gave her an ironic laugh and said with a bitter tone. – "What?! Do you prefer the kisses of the other blonde…? What was her name…? Ah yes Sarah…" (Mocking smiles)

Emily. – "Ali… this isn't you…"

Alison smirked. – "How do you know?!"

Emily. – "Because I know you better than I know myself…"

Alison smirked and glanced. – "Oh right…"

Alison started to run her fingers on Emily's arm and she said with a bitter and seductive tone of voice…

Alison. – "Right… you can see right through me…" (She approached until their lips where face to face with just millimeter of distance between them when she said) "Can you Emily be into my core…" (She continued using a seductive tone of voice as she careless Emily's face) "Do you remember the 1st time that you saw the real me? The Ali who waked up all your sexual frustration, the one who used you for kissing practice…" (She grabbed Emily's hand and put them in her butt)

When Emily felt Alison's butt in her hands, she just gulped and raised her eyes brow; Alison bit her lips and kissed her again, but once again the kiss felt bitter.

Alison whispered and said with a seductive tone. – "Take me now…"

Emily sighed. – "Why?"

Alison smirked. – "To prove that nothing matters…"

Alison kissed her again and against her horny hormones, Emily stopped the kisses and pulled away the blonde because she knew that the Alison in front of her wasn't in her straight mind.

Emily. – "No… this isn't you… this isn't the Alison that I want…"

Alison smirked. – "That's right and I will never be again!"

Emily. – "What happen to you Ali… you're not acting as yourself…?"

Alison smirked. – "What happen?! I don't know Emily… what happen, let's make a summary: I got in jail, I got betrayed multiple times, my Dad died, my mom died, Enzo who was a brother to me died, my brother Jason is in a come but I'm sure that he will also leave me alone in this fucking word!"

Emily. – "Ali…"

Alison. – "I tried to be a good person Emily, in fact you inspired me, all I wanted was to be with you but you turned your back on me!"

Emily. – "Ali please forgive me! What I want more than anything is to live happily even after with you!"

Alison mocked. – "Fary tales don't exist Emily! We thought that we were meant to be but the truth is we were only fooling ourselves!"

Emily. – "No! That's not truth!"

Alison yelled. – "Emily just leave! Leave to California and forget about me! I'm not going to hold you back so don't come after me!"

Emily. – "Ali! Deep down underneath it all, you feel something for me! Don't over thinking it, Ali, please… things will be different, I will be different and I'm promising you, I'm swearing to you there will be no more lies! Ali! I love you!"

Alison smirked and glanced. – "You know, no matter how much you love me, there will be always a part of you that defaults to the old me, the queen bee…"

Emily. – "Ali…"

Alison. – "Emily, be honest! The sooner you're going to be stuck in a situation where you have to make a decision which requires hiding things from me or doubt again… what are you going to do?! Are you going to trust me?! Can you assure me that you will always trust me?!

Emily stood speechless.

Alison. – "Thanks… I've my answer…"

The blonde entered into her car and said.

Alison. - "We could have been great together but now I plan on being great all by myself… Good-bye Emily…"

The brunette stood there in the parking speechless.

(In the DiLaurentis house)

Alison entered into her house, she entered to the living room and as she saw all the pictures, all the memories and all the empty space, she realized that the house will be always empty from now on; Pepe approached and Alison grabbed him and put him in her car, she also grab some personal stuffs and she put it in her car too.

*** Music moment: Until we go down by Ruelle***

She was in her house and got really angry feeling alone, feeling the loss of her family and beloved. She lost it and started to break everything, to throw away every photo, etc… she was doing a lot of noise and Toby who was patrolling and passing by, he noticed it; he approached and entered in the property.

Toby. – "Alison! What are you doing?!"

Alison didn't reply, she continued crashing everything around her in her moment of rage. She got in the liquor stand of her Dad and started to drop the liquor on all the furniture.

Toby grabbed her from the arm and said. – "Alison! What are you doing?! Are you trying to destroy all your memories or every branch?! It won't help… believe me… I've tried…"

Alison smirked and said with irony. – "Well, maybe I should head up to the roof and make it a little more dramatic as your mother!"

Toby didn't reply, he knew that Alison was in her straight mind right now and don't thinking straight. Alison liberated herself from Toby and continued to go around the house dropping alcohol all over the place.

Toby. – "Alison! Stop it!"

Alison yelled. – "Why?! Because you want me to not be in denial! You want me to face the truth! Well this is the truth! I don't' want to live here anymore!" (She grabbed some books and threw them to the floor and put a lot of liquor on it) "I don't want these books!" (She kicked a table and turned her off on the ground) "I don't want this table…" (She grabbed a bottle of whisky and drank a little when she said) "I will not need this whisky anymore since my Dad is not here to drink it… unless you wanted?"

Toby just stood there speechless under the breakdown of the blonde.

Alison glanced. – "That's what I thought!"

She crashed the bottle on the curtains of the living room

Toby. – "Alison…!"

Alison yelled. – "Go away Toby! There is nothing you can do for me! Unless you've the power to bring back every person on the other side to get them back, you're useless for me! Can you?! Can you Toby?! Because I can't!... What all this crap happened to me…?! I mean I know that I'm a bad person… Is this karma?! I have no idea!"

The blonde continued to crash her house and drop all the liquors that where in the house all over the place.

Toby. – "Alison! Please stop! You're scared me!"

Alison. – "What else I'm supposed to do! I mean there is no room of this place that doesn't make me feel angry or sad! There is nothing here for me anymore! Every inches of this house is filled with memories of the people I loved and that have died! My mom, my Dad… Jason is not dead but he's like it!" (Tears in her face) "Enzo died too! I mean they're all dead! Everyone is dead! So what… what… what I'm supposed to do?! How I'm gonna get through… I can't even…! There's nothing left for me too!"

Toby started to slowly approach and said. – "Alison… I need you to calm down…"

Alison made motions with her hands saying "No, No, No!"

She sat on the floor and started to lament. – "No, no… I can't… I can't!" (She put her hands over her heart and said with pain) "It hurts! It hurts! It hurts!" (She looked up and said to Toby) "Make it stop! Make it stop! Please, make it stop it hurts!"

Toby approached and hugged her as he said. – "Calm down Alison, let me help you; let us help you…"

Alison sighed and she pulled away and looked him in the eyes.

Alison said with an empty look. – "No you can't… you and the other, you're not enough… no this time…"

She grabbed a book and hit him in the head with it. When Toby waked up, he was outside the house and he saw Alison dropping liquor all over the porch and on the path of the entry of the house. She was looking towards the house when she turned on a matchstick.

Toby. – "Alison! Don't do this! What if one day when your grief is over… you want to come home again?!"

Alison turned towards him and looked him in the eyes with an empty look. – "I won't…"

She threw the matchstick and the house went in fire in period of minutes. Toby went to his car and call for the fire department. Alison saw her house in fire and she got in her car and left.

(In Alison's car)

Alison was driving without a destination; she put on the radio…

(On the Radio)

"As recent news, we asked to all the persons to be vigilant as a big criminal escaped from Jail… her alias is Cece Drake, also knew as Charlotte/Charles DiLaurentis…"

As soon as she heard the news, she closed her fist on the steering wheel and squint her eyes; she made a call.

(On the phone)

Blair. – "Ali…?"

Alison. – "Blair can you please check on Pepe in your apartment for me…?"

Blair. – "Is everything ok?"

Alison. – "There is an unfinished business that I need to end it…"

Blair. – "Ok… sure, pass by and leave Pepe with me…"

Alison. – "Ok… I will be there in some minutes…"

Blair decided to don't ask more questions and they just hung up. As soon as she hung up, she received another call.

(On the phone)

Alison. – "Did you hear what happen with Cece?"

Noel. – "Yes… What if I told you I have an idea where Cece could be hiding right now…?"

Alison's eyes became darker and she said with a lethal look. – "I would say… let's get that bitch!"

Noel. – "Are you not going to call the cops?"

Alison. – "I'm not gonna return Cece in prison… I'm gonna put her in the ground and don't you dare try to stop me!"

Noel. – "Ok… I will text you the address…"

(In the DiLaurentis House)

Emily was driving when she saw the smoke, she followed the smoke and she accelerated when she saw that the fire was coming from Alison's house. She ran out of her car and saw the fire department still trying to stop the fire, her mind were under the worse thoughts thinking that Alison was inside, she tried to run inside but someone hugged her from behind and stopped her.

Toby. – "Emily! Stop!"

Emily yelled. – "No Toby! Let me go! She's in danger! She's there!"

Toby. – "No Emily! Calm down! She's not inside!"

Emily calmed down and when Spencer and the other girls also approached to them.

Spencer. – "Toby! What happen! Where is Alison?! Is she ok?!"

Toby. – "She put fire to her house and left…"

Emily. – "What?! Where did she go?!"

Toby. – "I don't know…"

Spencer. – "We need to find her soon, we heard over the news that Cece escaped!"

Emily. – "What?!"

(In an apartment in Philadelphia)

*** Music moment: What when down by Foals***

Cece was taking a shower, when she finished, she put the towel around her body and she put a little of cream in her face as she saw herself in the mirror.

Cece smirked. – "What pretty face I have…"

She finished putting cream and other products on her face and put her hand in the door handle; as soon as she opened the door, she just saw a fist coming to her face and it knocked her out immediately; she fell on the floor with blood in her nose. The person who knocked her out approached to her and said…

Alison smirked. – "Sweet dreams bitch!"
