A/N: Hey guys! Here's chapter 17. Finally! OMG sooooo sorry I kept you guys waiting for like ever, I had writer's block. Well, enjoy!

Willa arrived at Reno's, and looked across the room. There, sitting at a table, was her cousin Megan, smiling and waving. Willa ran over to the table and hugged Megan tightly. Then, she sat down at the table.

"I already ordered you a slice of pepperoni and an iced tea. I know it's your favorite." said Megan.

"Thanks." said Willa taking a bite of her pizza. As happy as she was to see Megan, there was still palpable depression in her voice. Megan quickly noticed this.

"Are you okay?" she said. "You seem upset. What's wrong?"

"Well…" said Willa. "…It's a long story. It's going to sound a little crazy, but you have to trust me and take it seriously. Okay?"

"Okay."

"Well, it all starts two years ago when I was chosen to be a holographic host for Disney. You know that much, but anyway I met four kids doing that who have become my best friends. Their names are Charlene, who we call Charlie, Lawrence, who we call by his middle name ,Finn, Dell, who we call by his last name, Philby, and Terrence, who we also call by his last name, Maybeck. Anyway, a short while after we finished filming the footage for our holograms, we all started having these dreams, but they weren't normal dreams. We would wake up in the Magic Kingdom, at night when it was completely unoccupied. We soon found out that we weren't dreaming, that we were doing something called crossing over where we would arrive in the parks as our holograms. We learned from an old imaginer named Wayne that it was our job to save Disney World and the world outside it from the Disney villains; the overtakers. We've been having an everlasting battle with them since we were in seventh grade. We can talk about specifics of everything that's ever happened later, but now I need to tell you why I'm so depressed.

You see, we had decided to spend the summer together to pursue the overtakers, but on the last day of school tragedy struck. Maybeck was absent from school that day and when we called his house to remind him what time to come over to Wanda, Wayne's daughter's apartment, where we were staying, his aunt said that he walked to school and never came back. Then, we discovered that the overtakers were planning to capture everyone who was not on their side and keep them imprisoned. Now, all the keepers, along with Wayne, Wanda and other Disney characters have been captured and I'm the only one left. I have to save them, or who knows what could happen?" Willa burst into tears. Then, Megan started laughing. Willa looked up at her, appalled.

"Wow, you have an amazing imagination Wills. You should write down that story and sell it one day. You could make a fortune off of it!"

"Megan!" said Willa. "It's really true!"

"Ya, and while we were apart I won So you think you can dance!" Megan was a horrible dancer. Willa looked up at Megan, too shocked for words.

"Wait, you were serious?" said Megan still laughing slightly. Willa just shook her head, got up and began to walk away.

"Wait!" Megan called, but Willa kept walking.

"Willa! Come on!" Willa just kept walking, and soon she was out the door.

That night, Willa sat in Wanda's apartment eating some spaghetti that she had cooked for dinner. A Skype request came on her Ipod. She looked at the caller ID; Megan. Willa ignored the call. A text came in on her phone. It was from Megan.

Wills we need to talk. I'm sorry for what I did. Please stop ignoring me! I need to talk to you!

Willa deleted the text message. Her phone rang. Again, the caller ID read Megan. Willa ignored the call. She hadn't stopped crying since she got home. Then, she heard Megan begin to leave a voice message.

Willa please stop ignoring me. I know what I did was wrong. It was just hard to take in, so I didn't believe you at first, but I do now. If you're willing to talk in person, meet me at the bagel place next to Rino's for breakfast. Hope to see you there. Bye.

Willa sat and thought for a second. She was mad at Megan, but she was her last hope. Willa decided to bury the hatchet and meet Megan for breakfast. She wasn't ready to talk to her yet though, so she sent her a text. It didn't say much, but it let Megan know that she was ready to start over.

What time?

In a few seconds, she received a reply.

Nine. Thank You. Love ya. See you then 3 XOXO- Megan

Willa finished her dinner, put on her pajamas, watched some TV, and then went to sleep.

The next morning, Willa arrived at the bagel shop next to Rino's and walked over to the table where Megan was sitting.

"Hi" she said.

"Hi." Megan said back. "I got you a bagel with cream cheese with tea and a fruit salad. I know it's your favorite."

"Thanks."

"So tell me." said Megan. "How can I help, and where do you want to look for your friends first?" Willa ate a spoonful of her fruit salad.

"Well…" Willa said, but soon she found herself breathing heavily and sweating. Her eyes began to tear.

"Oh my gosh!" said Megan. "What happened?" Willa could barely talk.

"I don't…" she began, but then she spotted the chunks of pineapple in the fruit salad. Willa began to sweat more and her breathing became heavier. Her throat began to hurt. Quickly, she pulled out an epi pen from her pocketbook and gave herself an injection. Then, she pulled out two pills from her bag and downed them with the tea. The whole store was looking at her. A store clerk was standing next to her with a bottle of water.

"Thank you" she said, and took a sip of the water. She knew that all of the customers were worried about her so she turned to them and assured them that she was okay. Once the excitement had ended, she turned to Megan.

"You knew I was allergic to pineapple. Why didn't you get me the fruit salad without pineapple?"

"I must have just forgotten." said Megan. "I'm so sorry." Megan sounded so innocent, but Willa knew something was up. Megan would never forget to ask the clerk to take the pineapple out of Willa's fruit salad. Willa knew what was going on, but she was too afraid to look up and confirm her suspicions. After a minute or so, she heard Megan's voice.

"Willa?" Slowly, Willa lifted her head and looked straight at Megan. Sure enough, what she had feared was true. Megan's eyes were a bright shade of green. Megan's eyes were normally blue. Willa shook her head in disbelief. The incident with the fruit salad had not been an accident, and she had to get out of there as soon as possible. Willa grabbed her bag and ran out the door. Once she was outside, she slid down the wall and sobbed, and sobbed, and sobbed, because now she was truly alone.

A/N: DUH DUH DUH! SOB! I had trouble writing the end because it was so sad! Well, anyway, I'm gonna be real busy this weekend so I don't know when the next chapter will be in. Bye!
