I'm going to find their killer. I know I can't fix the hurt or I can't bring them back to life, but I'll bring justice. For my sister and Alex's. I'll make it work. The stars are beautiful. I trace each of the stars with my finger. I know Annie is watching. I just wish I knew she was my sister. She was funny, kind and elegant. I wish I can speak to her. One last time. But I can't. She's gone. I can't help that I lost myself to. I was a girl that had hopes and dreams. I was once an innocent girl. But I changed for the worse. I wake up feeling dread. I never want to see that damn castle ever again. I glance over to Alex who has been staring "whatcha thinking?" "Nothing" "princess, I'm not stupid I know something is on your mind" "I'm afraid" I want to cry but I can't. I have no tears to show. "Afraid of what?" "Afraid of my future. My whole life was fake. I don't even know who I am anymore. I just... I just can't do it anymore" I feel his hand cupping my face, "baby, you're everything. I understand that you're feeling this way but, I am here for you. Don't give up just yet. I promise you that" he smiles at me. It's comforting. It's always comforting. "Thank you, Alex" "you're always welcome, baby".

I should run. Run away from everything. I feel like I hurt so many people in my life. My whole life is crumbling, and I can't stop. I can't stop feeling like this. It's exhausting. I'm lying on the ground with Alex who is sleeping. I should leave. It's my perfect time to do so. I hear leaves shuffling. It's probably a guard. "Alex" I whisper "someone is here" he doesn't wake up. "Fuck" I prop myself up "I'll be right back" I whisper and got up. I glance around my surroundings when I saw a piece of paper. The predator catching its prey. It's an obvious trap that I fell into. I picked up the paper. "Find me" for fucks sakes. This is dangerous. I should wake Alex up, but I can't. I adventure into the forest as I see another piece of paper. "Closer" I'm scared but I'm determined. I continue to walk in the forest as I see another piece of paper. "You found me" I glance up and I fell to the ground. Instantly I passed out from the hit.
