Wrens Pov

I started to breath normally. What was happening. The last thing I remember was someone cutting open the back of my neck then my eyes closed. I thought that was the end. The last thing I saw was my mother. I was so happy to see her, and my father, Aunt, and Jackson and Miller. But I couldn't tell them that. I couldn't even move. I sit up and open my eyes. Wait I just sat up. I look around. I don't recognize this room. It's beautiful. I stand up and walk to one side of the room. I open up the curtains and see a dessert. Theirs another window on the other side. I run over and open it. I see a forest. Weird I think to myself. I walk back over to the dessert window. Am I dead. I feel the wind move fabric onto my legs. I look down and see a light pink dress with pink flowers on it. My hair moves with the wind. I can tell that there's braids in it.

Remember as I always say. You can imagine then however you want but this is how I do it.

"Wren" I hear a soft voice say from behind me. It sounds familiar. I turn around and see my parents. "That's the place me and your father first meet." She says I laugh. They slowly walk towards me. They hold hands.

"Oh you look so beautiful Wren" my dad says and he pushes a stray piece of hair behind my ear.

"Dad, Where are we?" I ask

"Josephine called it the mind space." He says. I remember some things of before I meet my parents again, and this was one of the things I remembered. Only one mind can survive in the mind space. Not two and definitely not three. I then think of why we are here. I just died.

"I died. Didn't I" I say

"You did" say my mom.

"Not acceptable" says my sad trying to cheer me up. I laugh. Wait if we're all here we're all gonna die.

"Wait you out are mind drives in one of your heads." I say and I start to cry knowing what they did. Two minds one body you won't survive. With three minds you two will definitely die." I say. Full on crying now." You have to take it out" I yell.

"Without you we wouldn't be our selves at all." My mom says and she grabs my hand.

"No" I say and I shake her hand off.

"We'd take a few more hours with you over forever without." Says my dad.

"No, no, no" I yell. " You guys can't do this. I won't let you. Wake up, wake up, just wake up, wake up!" I yell shaking them trying to get them to wake up. I run behind them. "Dr. Jackson, Dr. Jackson! Please wake them up." I yell.

"Wren" my mom says sternly.

"Don't let them do this" I yell tears streaming down my face. "Jackson I yell. I feel a pair of hands wrap around me. I start to try and get out.

"Stop, stop, stop" yells my dad.

"No let go of me" I yell.

"Shh, shh, shh" my mom says and she walk out front of me and grabs my shoulders. "This is okay with us." She says.

"No, it's not okay with me." I say still crying. Falling to the floor. But my parents are holding onto me so I don't hit the floor.

"Shh, shh, shh. It's okay, it's okay." My dad says. I stay silent in their arms. Crying and holding onto them.

"Let's do something fun okay" says my mom. I grab both of their hands and we walk out of the bedroom we were just in. They both seem to know their way around this place. I decide not to question it. We walk around the corner and into a kitchen. I let go of my mothers hand. She grabs things and throws them all into a basket. (Lol this is kinda a reference back to 2 - 9)  She then grabs my hand and leads us outside and into the forest. We walk to a spot that has a blanket on the ground.

"Sit" my mother says and we all sit down. She unloads the basket she brought and places all of the food out. She takes out strawberries and looks up and smiles at me.

"You brought strawberries?" I ask excitedly.

"Yep, I know that they are your favorite" she says and I grab one and put it in my mouth.

"They are" I say as I swallow it. We all then start up eat and enjoyable time together. Life was peaceful. Until my arm started to turn gold and disappear. "Mom, Dad" I say nervously. They look over and see what's happening. They immediately go to my sides. I hug them both and they hug me back.

"We love you. Just remember that" my dad says.

"I love you too" I say before I disappear.
