"Hello?" I called. My words trailed off into the empty silence. I looked over onto the house which I had been in just moments ago. Then, I caught sight of a thick, black smoke. That's when my eyes were drawn to a spark of bright oranges and reds. "No," I thought. "This isn't happening." Tears of fear began to flow down my face. "Avery!" I called. I kept shouting until I physically couldn't anymore. Just as I was about to give up, I saw 4 dark figures. "She's safe. She's safe! They're safe!" I murmured. I tried to call again. I watched one of them turn to face the house before walking away with the rest. I held my key tight and turned to leave the tower. I had to get out of here. I ran down the stairs, but was met by an unfamiliar shadow.
"Hello, Amaya." The voice punctured my organs, ripping out my heart.
