I'm not really liking where this story is going, so i am ending it in a couple of chapters. Don't worry, i didn't completely leave you hanging, it actually has an ending. Only 8 people read my last chapter, so...

Elizabeth paced around her room nervously.
It was hard knowing what she had to do, even if she knew everyone may not be happy in the end.
If it meant saving April, Elizabeth wanted to do it.
That night, at ten o'clock, she drove to the school.
Rebecca was waiting as promised. The older woman smiled when she saw Elsaba.
"I thought you'd come," Rebecca greeted.
Though Rebecca was the villain, Elizabeth knew she would keep her end of the deal and let April go.
"What do i have to do?" Elizabeth whispered.
"Come with me," Rebecca commanded.
Elizabeth followed her into the forest. They arrived at their destination, a large tree in the small clearing.
Elizabeth took a deep breath and stood where she was instructed, waiting for the bullet.
"Why?" She asked.
"Because," Rebecca responded. "No good happens with magic."
"What happened to you?"
No response came. Rebecca raised the gun and pointed it at Elizabeth's heart.
Just as she pulled the trigger, a shape jumped in front of Elizabeth.
"April!" Elizabeth shrieked.
Rebecca stood back, surprised April came but satisfied that Elizabeth was hurting. Even if it wasn't physically.
April lay on the ground, blood seeping out of a gash near her heart.
"April, you idiot," Elizabeth whispered.
"I know," April choked out.
Idina and Kristin ran up.
"Oh my Oz," Kristin whispered.
"Is it a mortal wound?" Idina wondered.
"I-I," Elizabeth burst into tears.
They all knew the answer.
"Elsaba, please, stay strong without me," Aprils murmured.
Elizabeth cried harder. "I can't do it."
"You learn to live without," April sang.
"Stop singing If/Then," Elizabeth laugh-cried.
"I love you, Liz," April mumbled.
"I love you, Glin," Elizabeth muttered.
April grabbed her hand and stared into her eyes. Suddenly, Elizabeth shot up.
"I know how I can save you!"
"Elizabeth..."
"No. I know how!"
"You're just grieving-"
"No. I know how. I have a plan."
