Author's Note: Hey, guys! So, the picture is a hint to the events of this chapter. I'm not going to tell you what will happen; you'll just have to find out yourselves. Also, yes, three updates in one day; I wanna wrap Steampunk Twins up and then have the next part up maybe in the next week. I'm also gonna start, hopefully, daily updates, so if I finish the book early, I'm sorry.
But, enough talk! Let's get on with the chapter and the twist...
Your Author, Marbella. <3

"But what I want more than that..."
"Is for Zach to die brutally and painfully..."

Valentina's POV:
We walked back into the lounge, still shaken up and devastated by the horror that was Vanessa's death. Zach was still clutching his nose from when I punched him.
I've stopped crying- thank God- and everybody seems glad I punched him and stood up for us.
"Well, there was no need for that and just because I voted for Vanessa doesn't mean I should get all the blame. Yes, I wanted her dead and yes, y'all need to cool it." Zach snapped, on the brink of losing his sanity and his temper at us for about... the millionth time tonight?
"Just be quiet already..." I groaned, putting my head in my hands.
"Well, on a much happier note, we have both keys to the Box of Dynamo!" Oli blurted out, holding up the gold key. Lana took the silver key, and they both put them into the box.
The keys somehow turn themselves and the box pops open with a golden light.
Valentina: 'So, the Box of Dynamo opens up, and inside is a flute, a golden note, and cards of all of us, but they have golden edges. I'm so fucking confused.'
"The hell?" Gear mumbled, picking up the golden note.
It read:
'Congratulations to you for opening the Box of Dynamo! Because you have proved your worth and found the keys, we will offer you an advantage to help you save the town of Delamont. The flute of Dynamo has one song left, but it can only be used by a chosen one.
Using the golden cards, one of you must be chosen to play the flute and think of a fallen friend. The friend they think of will be brought back from the dead. You may choose to discard this ability, but as a result, only three of you will leave alive. Choose wisely; there is only one chance at this and your mission will be delayed until the revived enters the lounge.'
"Oh my God... we could bring back Megan!" Zach exclaimed, jumping up.
"Could is the keyword," Lia mumbled, rolling her eyes.
"Even so, we can bring back one of our friends!" Lana bubbled, jumping up and down.
We all took a card each based on who we wanted to choose who was coming back.
Eventually, we all choose and gave the cards for Heidi to shuffle.
She shuffled them and we all held our breath; Zach better not be the chosen one.
"The chosen one is..." Heidi called out. She took one of the golden cards, looked at it, and turned it around.
"The Highroller."
Zach looked crushed as Oli grabbed the flute, stepped outside, and played it; no way was Megan coming back from the dead now.
After a few minutes, Oli came back in with the flute, which had now turned into a pile of ashes.
"Who did you choose, Oli?" I asked, my hands and eyes fidgeting.
TO BE CONTINUED. <3
