"Kellin!!! Over here!" Billie waved from next to a car. Stream lined, small. Perfect. "I jumped in, gun at my side and the car sped off into the barren wasteland. It didn't take long to reach the minions though.

There they were. About 3 feet tall, purple, fangs, the works. And yeah. It spat acid everywhere. "Guns at the ready guys..." Ethan cautiously crept forward. "Ethan. Stay back." Billie warned. Ethan didn't listen. "Ethan." I said firmly. "No. I got this okay?" Ethan was stubborn.

In two seconds flat, Ethan's foot was gone along with the minions, who I shot point blank. Ethan screamed loudly. Blood was gushing from where his left foot was. "BILLIE!! GET SOME BANDAGES OR SOMETHING FROM THE CAR!!!" I cried.

Tears streamed down my face. "Don't worry Ethan. You'll be fine." I told him. He started to convulge. "Billie?! Billie, what's happening to him?!" I screamed. "Poison." Billie gasped. "I didn't think they'd do it."

"Is he gonna be okay?" I looked into Ethan's brown eyes. The color from his face was gone. He was pale. Ethan's chest started heaving as he gasped for air.

"ETHAN!!! DON'T DIE!!! PLEASE DON'T DIE!!! YOU CAN'T LEAVE ME!!!" I cried out to him. He can't leave me. I won't let you die Ethan. "Billie! Get Ethan in the car quick. We need to get back as fast as possible." Ethan was lying on the ground, unconscious from the massive loss of blood. I picked him up carefully and carried him to car. Ethan's skin was cold.

I sat in the back seat with Ethan. "Kellin. Kellin, I'm so sorry." Ethan whispered. His hands were shaking and his voice was hoarse and hushed. "No. Don't say that. You're gonna be fine, I promise." I felt his forehead and it was freezing.

"I'm not dumb, Kells." Ethan coughed up a bit of blood. "I know I'm not gonna live. I can feel it." Tears were fallings slowly down his cheeks and mine. "Billie, can you please drive faster. He's gotta make it!" Billie nodded and the tires sped across the dirt.

The house finally came into view. The car slid up to the front and we crashed through the front door, Ethan's almost lifeless body hung in my arms. "HELP!!!! SOMEBODY HELP US!!!" I screamed. Ray responded first. "Ethan. Oh my fucking god." A tear drop slipped down his face.

"Ray! Help us! How did stop it?!" I pleaded. "I...I..." Ray stammered. "I don't know if you can Kellin. If Ethan's been poisoned, it's already in his system. There's no getting it out."

"SO I JUST SIT BACK AND WATCH MY BROTHER DIE?!" I couldn't let the most important person in my life die, while I sat by helplessly.
