"I hope that, that's true for your sake." Words that I can't get out get of my head. This "mayor" and his words. I head outside to the patrol men who open the teleporter once more and beam me back to my home. "Beam me down, snotty," replays in my head. I walk into my home and see Aries sitting on my bed, looking distraught. She sees me, and relief sets on her soft, featured face. She asks, "Where were you?" I tell her everything to which she says, "You don't think the lake was the cause, do you?" I sit down next to her and shrug my shoulders, but I say,"There's a very good chance." She tells me how the "U" was completely draining because I wasn't there and how people tried to talk to her, but it's not the same. How I managed to have a friend like her, I will never understand.

After a while, she leaves, and I sit at home, I make myself some food. Once I finish, I lay down, attempting to sleep, and realize all I'm doing is tossing and turning. I get up and get dressed for a walk, As I head out my door, I start to walk towards Lady Lake. I wish I could have been around longer to see its glory.  This place may not be as beautiful as it was, but I will always appreciate that it exists. My made first best friend here, a gift, I can never say how thankful I am. While I reminisce, I didn't notice I wasn't alone. I look up to see Aries standing next to me, asking if I can't sleep again. She knows me too well. I say, "Yeah, sit with me?" She nods and sits down.  As we sit in silence, she asks unexpectedly, " Will you be ever happy?". I look to her and say, "I hope so,". Suddenly again, the same feeling happened as it did two days ago, and we both look concerned, so look up and the scenery has changed. The Lake looked as it did before, but even better, sparkles illuminate the sapphire blue water and trees had leaves, with color so deep green and the sky was orange, pink, purple, something out of a dream. We looked to each other and smiled and held on to this picture-perfect image. Morning comes, I awake to being alone, and that perfect picture is gone. I noticed a letter from Raves. I feel the anger arise and open it vigorously to read

"I really did hope you could try to love our town, but since you have chosen otherwise, we will take away what you love."

-Raves
