Should I sleep 🤔 I forgot I had a test today and pulled an all nighter last night so I think I failed that test

The Next Morning

I didn't get much sleep last night... I don't think I even got any sleep, since I knew today was the day that ended it all for me... Today's my death day.

My cell door opened and it was Luz. She threw a plate at the ground and uncuffed my hands. "Eat up you worthless rat." Luz said to me and I tried to ignore it, I sat down on the ground and started to eat very slowly, trying to salvage the time I had left in my life.

Then I scoffed "shouldn't I at least get a choice on what my last meal was?" I finished eating my food and stood up. Then Luz, out of no where, punched me across the face. It fucking hurt like a bitch if I had anything to say. "Thirty Minutes" was all she said before locking my wrists back up and leaving the cell.

"Thirty Minutes huh?" I felt a tear run down my face "I didn't think it would end like this..." I closed my eyes and thought about all the times with me, Emira, and Edric... They're probably still at home, worried sick about where I could be. Then I couldn't even fucking save Viney and Boscha, they're dead and I couldn't do anything! And Luz... Luz, I don't even know what to say about Luz.

I guess I lost track of time because once I finished that thought I heard the cell door open and in came Luz and two guards. Luz unlocked my wrists and the guards grabbed my arms, basically dragging me out of the cell and down a long dark hallway.

We stopped at a staircase when a plant came out of no where and pierced itself through the guard holding my left arm, then the guard on my right vanished like... An illusion?

"STEVE!" Luz shouted and looked me dead in the eyes. "If today wasn't your death day I would've killed you right here." she grabbed my arm and forced me up the stairs.

As she did that I could see a plant wrap itself around Luz's ankle and then pull her back down the stairs. Hearing a loud thud when she hit the bottom.

I looked around and three people caught my eye. "ED! EM! WILLOW!" I rush to them and throw my arms around them. "I-I thought I was gonna die today." Ed looked at me and smiled softly "we wouldn't let our baby sis die in our hands." I smiled and looked down the stairs. Seeing a bloodied Luz climb back up the stairs. Blood dripping from her forehead, nose, and mouth.

"Oops, I didn't mean to drag you down the stairs that hard." Willow said and grabbed my arm, all four of us started sprinting up the stairs as Luz started to chase us. We finally made it to the top but the door was locked.

Luz started to laugh behind us. "Stupid witches, right behind that door is Belos and multiple guards, waiting to grab Amity and end her. But don't think about going back down those stairs, because down there is Kikimora and MORE guards, waiting to see if you attempt to run back down the stairs."

My eyes went wide. "So I'm gonna die either way?" Luz nodded and had a grin on her face. "But since you three are already here, they'll probably end up killing all of you as well." I sighed and pulled Willows arm off of mine. "Fine, I'll go just don't hurt them, let them go... Please."

Luz walked towards me and grabbed my arm, then grabbed a key out of her pocket and unlocked the door. "You three go." they looked at me but I sighed "just listen to her." as Luz was opening the door there was a voice from down the stairs. "LUZ NOCEDA! LET THE GIRL GO." Luz groaned. "It sounds like they got out of their cell again.

I looked at the girl. "Who?" Luz sighed. "Raine and Hunter."
