*Rozalina's POV*

We ran and ran through the forest until we declared it to be safe. We reached a beautiful view full of colour.

"What do we do now?" Nia asked.
"I guess we stay here," Erik said.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Throughout the months, Erik and Abdul would build a little home for us. It wasn't much of a house but it would do.

It had been a year since we had come here and I decided to go outside to do some outdoor painting.

As I walked outside, the view was absolutely stunning. There was a beautiful orange sunset that gave a beautiful dim light. The birds flew past the greenery that laid on the ground in a perfect position.

I could smell the food that Erik was cooking for dinner. It felt like you could smell it from 20 miles away. We were all just really hungry.

I could hear the beautiful song that the birds were singing that made me forget about the hard times that were going on. It was as if they knew we needed that right now.

I could taste the fresh air that reached my tongue tasting more minty than a mint.

As I was painting the countryside, Michelle had come up to me. We were sat down in silence for ages until she finally spoke.

"You're a really good artist," she said.
I smiled, "Thanks."
"I was thinking that we could write a letter for our past selves," Michelle said.
"Now?" I asked.
"I dunno, just soon," she said.

"I mean, it's not a very original idea," I laughed.
"But what if we have to?" she said, "If we don't, what if it ruins the timestream?"

I shrugged my shoulders, "I don't really want to think about it."
"Sorry," Michelle smiled awkwardly.

Michelle and I jumped. I turned my head and realised that Abdul and Nia were just playing soccer.
Michelle sighed. I felt myself too be relieved about the noise.

Suddenly, there was a bunch of running. Michelle stood up and I stood up with her to see what was going on.

Some police officers were chasing Erik.
