Last Time:

Shadow walked up to where Jaden lay, and smiled a cruel smile down at him. He squatted down next to him and said in a rush of cold breath two words that made Jaden freeze like ice.

'Good bye'

Now:

Laughter once again filled the air, but this time Jaden couldn't hear it, not over the sound of his own thoughts.

'Good bye? So then, my times almost up? I'm going to die any second now? And no one's here to save me. Absolutely no one.

I'm all alone,'

In real life

Syrus walked around the house looking for Jaden until he passed by a window. He saw some thing in the distance and squinted his eyes as he tried to focus. Some thing, or some one, was splashing some thing all over the ground.

"Jaden?" Syrus said questioningly.

The figure in the distance threw some thing to the ground and suddenly there was a small dim light glowing in the dark. Syrus' eyes went wide. He didn't know what was going on, but it didn't look like it was good. He jumped back and started running back to his room.

He swung open the door and ran to Hasslebarry's bed screaming and yelling. Hasslebarry, after hearing all the ruckus, abruptly sat up and looked around only to see a frantic Syrus in panic mode.

"Calm down Soldier! I can't understand a word that you're saying," Hasslebarry said. Syrus took a deep breath and told Hasslebarry the story as quickly as he could. Hasslebarry, having heard what he was saying this time jumped out of his bed with wide eyes. "Well why didn't you tell me before?!" he yelled. Syrus was about to tell him that he had but was interrupted. "Doesn't matter! Just wake the rest of the gang up and tell them to hurry! I'm going ahead to see what's up!" and with that he ran out of the room, leaving Syrus standing there.

After a moment Syrus had regained himself and did as he was told.

With Jaden's body

He stood holding the lighter, staring at the blue/orange flames as if stuck in yet another trance before he knelt down and placed the lighter to the gasoline soaked rotted wood and grass.

With Hasslebarry

Hasslebarry ran out the front door, ignoring his shoes and jacket completely, and looked around. He was looking for the dim light that Syrus had mentioned, but was surprised to see the beginnings of a fire brewing, and he could clearly see Jaden standing in the middle of the fire as the flames surrounded him.

"Holly shit!" Hasslebarry yelled as he bolted for Jaden, praying that he'd be able to make it in time and before the fire reached the way too close by trees.

In Jaden's dream

'What's happening?' Jaden thought as all of the sounds around him started to change. They used to sound clear as a bell, but now they sounded so far away. It was like trying to hear while under water. He opened his eyes, hopping to see clearly, but he couldn't. His vision was as blurred as his hearing, and he had a bad feeling that it wasn't because of all the pain or blood loss.

With Syrus and the rest of the gang

"Will some one explain to me why I'm being woken up so freaking early?!" Chazz yelled.

"Because, Jaden's in trouble so hurry the heck up!" Alexis yelled back, now running out the door to try and catch up with Hasslebarry. She was soon followed by Bastion and Syrus. Chazz jumped out of bed and hurried to follow them while thinking 'what the heck has the slacker done now?!'

With Hasslebarry

Hasslebarry watched as the fire reached the trees and burned all the way up to the leaves. He watched with fear as several trees started to fall and once again was praying for his friend's life.

With Jaden

Jaden started to cough as his eyes regained their color, as he finally awoke from his living nightmare. He looked around him to see fire every where. There was no safe way out, and if there was Jaden couldn't see it.

He heard a cracking sound and looked up to see a hedge burning tree branch right above him just as it broke off completely. He tried to dodge it but couldn't, and the tree landed on his stomach. He screamed as the fire burned his skin and tried to push it off only to find that he was too weak.

'Now you know how it feels,' a voice in Jaden's head said with a crackling laugh. Tears were poring out of Jaden's eyes. Between the pain he was feeling and his other self's inner laughter he hadn't even heard his friends yelling his name.

With Chazz

Chazz had just walked out of the front door to see a ragging fire. "What the hell?!" he yelled as he stared for a moment before quickly regaining himself. He ran back inside and dialed 9-1-1 and requesting fire trucks and an ambulance, after words slamming the phone to the receiver and running full speed out the door.

With Jaden

Jaden looked around to find that he couldn't see any more, every thing had gone pitch black. He tried to focus on his hearing but nothing made any sense, once again he felt like he was trying to hear while under water.

'Looks like you're times coming to its end, just like it should have all those years ago,' Shadow said threw Jaden's mind.

'No! My friends will save me!' Jaden thought back.

'Oh really?'

'Yes really!'

'Then tell me, why haven't they come yet?' Jaden couldn't answer. Shadow laughed. 'Could it be because they're not coming?'

'They're coming! They're just not hear yet!' Jaden thought, more like he was trying to convince himself and not Shadow. His other self just chuckled.

With the rest of the gang

Hasslebarry had just reached the fire and was yelling Jaden's name. Alexis, Bastion and Syrus ran up behind him.

"Jaden! Oh my god!" Alexis said.

"We have to help him!" Syrus said.

"Syrus, Alexis, go get the hose! Hasslebarry and I will try to do what we can here! Okay?!" Bastion said. Syrus and Alexis nodded and ran off in the direction of the hose.

"So what exactly are we suppose to do?"

"Anything!"

And with that Bastion and Hasslebarry started trying to either burry the fire in dirt or move small peaces of debris out of the way. Chazz soon caught up with them.

"Where have you been?!" Hasslebarry asked.

"I was calling 9-1-1" Chazz answered.

"Good thinking, now help us out over here," Bastion said.

With Jaden

'It's so cold. Why is it so cold? I thought I was surrounded by fire, am I already' he took a second to gulp 'dead?'
