Once upon a time, there was a girl named Lily who had a best friend named Rose. Lily and Rose were inseparable, and they did everything together. They shared their secrets, played games, and went on adventures. But one day, Rose started to change. She became moody and withdrawn, and she started to distance herself from Lily. Lily tried to reach out to her friend, but Rose just pushed her away. Eventually, Lily began to suspect that something was very wrong. Then, one night, Lily woke up to find Rose standing over her with a knife. Before she could react, Rose plunged the knife into her chest
In a panic, Lily tried to fight back, but Rose was too strong. As the life drained from her body, Lily wondered why her best friend had turned on her like this. Had she done something to upset her? Was there something she could have done differently? Her thoughts were interrupted by a flash of light, and she found herself standing before a shining being. It was an angel, who told her that it was not her time, and that she had been brought back to life. Lily asked why this had happened, and the angel replied, "You must go back and find out what happened to Rose." When Lily woke up, she found herself back in her own bed, with no sign of Rose. She felt a mixture of relief and confusion, and she wondered what she should do next. She decided to go to Rose's house, to see if she could find any clues. As she approached the house, she noticed that the windows were all boarded up and the door was locked. She knocked on the door, but there was no answer. Feeling uneasy, she looked through one of the cracks in the boards to see if she could see anything inside.
What Lily saw through the crack in the boards shocked her. The house was completely trashed, with furniture overturned and pictures smashed. In the middle of the room, there was a large, dark stain on the floor. Lily felt a chill run down her spine, and she began to suspect that Rose had been murdered. Suddenly, she heard a noise coming from the kitchen. Her heart pounding, she crept towards the kitchen door. As she reached for the door handle, a voice whispered in her ear, "Don't go in there" Lily froze in terror, but then she realized that the voice was not coming from inside the house. It was coming from the back of her mind. She turned around, and to her surprise, she saw Rose standing there. But this was not the same Rose she had known before. This Rose had black, soulless eyes, and her skin was pale and waxy. Lily tried to scream, but no sound came out. As Rose reached out to grab her, she heard the voice again, "Run!" Without thinking, Lily turned and ran, not daring to look back.
As Lily ran, she felt like she was being chased by something, but she didn't dare turn around to see what it was. She ran until she reached the edge of the woods, and she stumbled into the trees, desperately trying to find a place to hide. Suddenly, she heard a voice calling her name. She turned, and saw a familiar face. It was her mother, and she was running towards her, arms outstretched. Lily ran to her, and fell into her arms, sobbing. "It's alright, I'm here," her mother said, holding her close. As Lily calmed down, she told her mother everything that had happened. Her mother listened, a look of concern on her face. "I think we need to go to the police," she said. But as they started to head back to the house, they heard a noise. They turned, and saw a figure standing in the trees. It was Rose, and she was smiling. Her eyes were still black, and her skin was still pale, but now she was surrounded by a swirling mass of darkness. As the darkness started to move towards them, Lily's mother held her close and said, "It's alright. I'll protect you." As the darkness approached, Lily's mother began to glow. Her eyes turned white, and her skin became as bright as the sun. She raised her hand, and the darkness retreated, hissing and wailing as it fled. When it was gone, her mother turned to Lily and said, "I have a secret to tell you." Lily nodded, and her mother said, "I'm not human. I'm a guardian angel, and I've been watching over you since you were born." Lily's eyes widened, and her mother continued, "I was sent to protect you, and to help you understand your purpose in this world." Lily was stunned. "My purpose?" she asked. Her mother nodded, and said, "You have a special gift. You can see things that others cannot, and you can hear the voices of those who have passed on. This gift has been given to you for a reason, and I am here to help you understand it." Lily thought about everything her mother had said, and she felt a sense of peace. "I'm still scared," she said. Her mother smiled, and said, "I know. But you're not alone. I'm here for you, and you're stronger than you know."
As the days went by, Lily began to understand her gift more and more. She learned to control it, and to use it to help others. She started to feel a sense of purpose, and her fear began to fade away. Then, one day, she heard a voice calling out to her. It was a voice she recognized, and it was calling from a place she knew well. She followed the voice, and it led her to the edge of the woods. There, she saw a little girl, lost and alone. She went to the girl, and said, "Don't be afraid. I'm here to help you
