I new I did a mistake running after her, but I didn't know what the mistake was, so I kept running after her, shouting her name in the endless skies. Soon it got late and I couldn't see anything any more. My eyes were seeing only blurred and my legs tripped over nothing. My arms hurt and my breath got as hard as a living dinosaur. I was tired, but I didn't care, I had to find Ellie. Maybe she was already home? Or did she maybe get lost. I rang my mum to ask her if Ellie was save home, but no one answered the phone. That was unusual; my mum hasn't called me or texted me, as well as my dad. The weather was cold, windy and raining, making the clouds seem dull.  My clothes were wet and cold, I was freezing, but I kept looking for her. Knowing that she was lost, made my heart ache. Suddenly, the sound of safety, by phone vibrated in my pocket, scaring me more than anything else. Should I pick it up? What if Ellie isn't home yet? What if...? I slowly pulled out the phone from my pocket and pressed the green button to pick up the phone. "Hello?" I said, with a scared voice. A worried female voice started panicking, but I couldn't figure out what that person was talking about. "I.... I don't understand, who is there?" I asked, starting to panic too. Was it Ellie? Was it mum? Who was it? "Jeff! Come fast!" "Who is this?" I asked. "Jeff! It is me! Amanda" Amanda was a friend. I used to hang out with her since nursery. "But where are you? I can't here you. What is wrong?" I started panicking , running around, trying to find my way. "Come to Greenwood Avenue 187" she said, then dropped the phone. There I stood, repeating the word "Hello" over and over again. What was with Ellie? Greenwood Avenue 187? Ellie lived in Greenwood 176, and the park, which was in that area was in 187. Maybe it was Ellie? Was she in danger?

My legs, tapped the water, leaving a little "tap, tap" on the wet floor. My shoes were wet, my trousers were wet as well as my hoody. When I arrived in Greenwood Avenue I stared at Ellie's house, trying to figure out if she was in there, but all the lights were turned off. I wanted to knock on the door and ask Mrs. Johnson if Ellie was right, but I figured out that I was wasting precious time. I ran into the park and felt myself overthrown by big dark trees, who left scary dark creatures on the floor, but those were just shadows. "Ellie!" I shouted over and over again, walking inside the woods. A cold hand grabbed my hoody and pulled my in to the bushes making me scream like a little girl. The hand covered my mouth and commanded me to be quiet. "It is me, Amanda" a voice said. I nodded in release. "Listen ok, I don't mean to break your heart but I really have to show you this" she said and pointed at a bench where two people sat, hugging. I tried to figure out who those two were but I couldn't see that well. "I can't see" I said, squinting my eyes. She pulled me to another bush, closer to the two people and then I could see who were those two. One of them was Callum, a boy in my class, he was my neighbour and I didn't really like him. The other person shocked me, it was a girl. I knew every point of the person, even when I just saw the back. The hair, every line, which was drawn perfectly, was so known. Every colour of the shirt.Ellie... My tears, where running down slowly, like a small water stream. "Hey, what are you doing here still, kids! Go home!" a big fat policeman said to us. He stood in the back of us holding our shoulders. Ellie and Callum didn't hear the policeman. I was burning inside me when I watched both of them still hugging and kissing.

I knew it was a mistake, but I walked closer and closer. By breath ice cold. It was now more than two hours after I saw Ellie and Callum in the park. My heart was now like a big, fat, heavy, cold stone, in my body. My mind nothing more than frozen air. I was doing the wrong thing, but it felt so right.  "Don't, don't do it! "my mind said, but that was just thin air. I felt how my halo slowly broke down from my body, how my angel wings turned into black dust. I couldn't do anything for it, I was thirsty. What would you do if you are thirsty and you know where water is? Wouldn't you go and get it, to satisfy yourself? Well I wasn't thirsty for water, I was thirsty for revenge and I knew how I could quench my thirst. I had to do it... I didn't have any other choice. I couldn't have killed myself from frustration, because I didn't wanted to die. I didn't wanted to die, so they're going to have to. I had one mission to do on this world, and that was revenge. Greenwood Avenue 176, I read and climbed in from the fence and walked to the backyard. I climbed up a tall tree up to a window. The window wasn't open, but I managed to get it...
