"There it is. Go. Go!" After Alice's death, the three of them run to the Hanging Tree as quickly as possible with their shovels. Stumbling around they locate the area where they need to dig. Melissa looks around her trying to spot Aurora or Nick in the darkness.

"Dig! Dig!" Cindy encourages. Grunting the three of them dig into the ground looking for Sarah Fier's body. While digging Ziggy and Melissa notice a boy with a bat walking towards them, they point it out to Cindy, "Just keep digging!" She urges as they begin to dig more frantically.

They continue digging as Ruby's singing get's louder and the Shadyside killers approach. Melissa's shovel hit something and she alerts the other two. Pulling it out she notices that instead of a body part she finds a stone containing the words 'The witch forever lives'.

"Cindy, what does it mean? Cindy?"

"I don't know"

"Well, where is she? Where's the body?"

"I don't know!" The killers get closer as Cindy pulls Ziggy and Melissa up close to tears. Turning around she notices Tommy, who she had previously decapitated, jogging towards them. Cindy and Mel then realised why they continue to chase them, Ziggy bled on the bone and they won't stop until she's dead.

"What do you want Sarah Fier?" Cindy shouts, looking around at the killers, "You want this? You can have it!" she shouts holding the hand, "Just let my sister live! Just let my sister live!".

"Ziggy, you bled on the bone. They're after you." Mel reveals, "get ready to run" She advises nodding at Cindy, both of them knowing what they had to do to protect Ziggy.

"No, Cindy, No! No, Melissa" She shouts as they push her to run away as they run towards the killers. Cindy towards Tommy Slater and Melissa towards Ruby Lane. They both let out screams as they run towards the killers seemingly in slow motion.

Cindy screams as Tommy knocks her down with his axe and Melissa as Ruby stabs her in the side with her razor. Ziggy lets out a cry at the carnage but doesn't get very far before the Milkman stabs her in the stomach. Ruby stabs Melissa once more before leaving her to bleed out.

Ziggy cries as Tommy hits Cindy in the chest with his axe. The Milkman stabs Ziggy again as he drops her on the floor on the other side of Cindy as she watches her sister get murdered. She reaches her hand out to Cindy as she does the same. Choking out her final words as Tommy continuously digs the axe into her chest.

"Nothing... will pull us... apart."

"Never again" 

"That was July 19th, 1978. Five thousand, nine hundred and thirty-seven days ago. Melissa was dying, my sister was dead... and so was I."

"Nick! You get Ziggy! I'll get Mel!" Aurora cried out. Nick dropped next to Ziggy, assessing her before performing CPR in the hopes he could save her. Aurora stopped by her sister, noticing she was still alive but covered in blood. "Oh god! You're going to be okay. I'm going to help you!"

Aurora strips off her jacket and applies pressure to the stab wounds in Melissa's side as she coughs up blood over the both of them. Melissa drifts in and out of consciousness as Rory tries to do everything she can to save her.

"Come on, Mel! Stay with me, don't die! You promised me!"

"And most days... I wish I'd stayed dead"

Ziggy coughs as Nick successfully resuscitated her.
