It is still Austins point of view ok? Enjoy :)

Why the heck is there so many? I wasn't yelling that loud was I? Oh God help us.

" well I finally get to use this at least," nick sighed and pulled out a gleaming bronze blade.

I crouched into a stance with my knees bent and my arms holding out my scythe. Jasper pulled out a short sword beside me and we dove in. Rin just hang in there, wherever you are, I will come find you.

Rin

I woke up shuddering. Austins voice lingered from my dream "'I will come find you'" I snuggled up into the corner of the rough cement wall and brought my knees up to my chin. It was so cold in here. My whole body hurt and I had bruises everywhere. Austin. Come find me quickly. Quickly please. I beg you.

Jasper

Damn it. How could Austin be so stupid? With all that noise, how could They not find us? I smashed the hilt of my sword into a gray face and did a quick 360 to slice off another Things face in half ear to ear. The blood gushed onto my freshly washed clothes. This was wasting my time. Rin. Are you dead? Are you one of Them? Or are you out there somewhere? I want... I smashed a skull with a strong kick and I ducked under lunging arms and thrusting the point of the sword up Its neck. I gave a strangled noise and I closed my eyes as the pulpy cold blood ran down my arms. Wherever you are... I tackled One with my shoulder as it jumped toward me. It smashed Its head on a rock as it fell so I turned to face another. If you're dead or alive.... I decapitated another. And nodded to the others as Nick finished off the last one. No matter what, I want to be there with you.

Andrew

She's gone, i put my head in my hands next to the fire. I failed. I failed to keep her alive. The most important thing in my life was her. She was my only family. It was my duty to keep her safe in this time of hell. Rin, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, forgive me Rin. Forgive me. Karina, Karina how could I let this happen? The one person, that I had dedicated to keeping alive. I grabbed the shirt over my heart, and let the tears come. One by one at first, then came the rivers. Arghh I slammed the growing with my fist, welcoming the sharp throbbing pain. Rin, I am so sorry Rin. Forgive me.

" Rin," I shouted into the flames. " Rin! I'm so sorry." I gave a silent scream. She was my cousin but I thought of her like a little sister. Now she's gone.

I watched silently as Andrew cried. It was awful. I saw his pain. His guilt. His shame. I left him alone, knowing sympathy would just make it worse. I felt the same. I wanted to stab myself right then and there. The guilt especially was hard to take. But the pain. The pain was terrible. I felt as if someone was torturing me. Cutting me. Electrocuting me, whatever but it hurt so much. Shit. I came with her so we could be together finally. To protect her. Dammit. I failed in both areas. I barely spent any time since Alyssa got here. She kept saying she had no one to talk to, that I was the only one there for her. That Rin hated her now. I bet Rin thought I liked Alyssa more than her. And I certainly as hell did not protect her. I never even got to tell her.

" stop grieving." Jasper snaps at us. Andrew aand o snap our heads to glare at him. I think we had a right to mourn.

" shut up Jasper. You dont understand how it feels." Andrew said hoarsely. " you never will."

" so shut your mouth, you don't know what were going through." I growled.

" you?" he sounded so scornful I wanted to bash his face in.

" leave him alone. Austin was like her brother. Best friends since they were little." Andy retorted before I could.

" ok whatever, but she isn't dead. I have a feeling. I have a feeling that she and Alyssa and her are close by"

Oh yeah. Alyssa is gone too. Forgot and I could tell Andy had forgot too as he flinched when he heard her name.

" this is so f$$king screwed up." he roared to the fire.

" they aren't dead! And I'll prove it. I'll go look for them tomorrow." Jasper said earnestly.

I just shook my head. Andy's despair was contagious. Seeing him, I didn't even hope. I just couldn't.

Gloomy huh? Vote and Comment!!!!! Pleaseeeee :)
