I rang George's mobile but it kept going to voicemail. Where was he? What was he doing? Mitchell had been in such a state, he wasn't safe to be on the streets. I decided to try the house phone but there was no answer there. I decided to leave a message:

'George, it's Ash. Where are you? I need to speak to you!?'

I was just sat on a bench in the middle of the town when my phone rang, it was George. 'Ash, what's going on? What's happened?' 'It's Mitchell, i need to talk to you where are you?' 'Listen i'm in the old bank with Mitchell's girlfriend, its complicated im getting a cure. I can't have visitors. i'll see you when im out'. i began to get frustrated 'George! i don't care i need to see you, is her name Lucy Jaggart by any chance?' i asked now terrified, when i got George's answer i just hung up and ran to the building George had mentioned. I got there in about 20 minutes and saw the large doors were open; standing there looking out was George and someone whom i presumed to be Nina (i vaguely remembered George mentioning her before i left. His eyes were red as if he had been crying and he was terrified. 'George!' i screamed and went running up to him. He embraced me in his shaking arms 'you were right' he whispered 'i do need to speak to you, Annie's gone, she's been forced to die like properly die. Oh Ash' he said then he broke down. Nina came over and hung onto his arm. 'You must be Nina, pleasure to meet you' i said offering her a hand which she hesitantly took. 'George, where is he?' i then turned to look at George who just stared at me confused.

'Mitchell- where's Mitchell' i asked again. George's eyes lit up. 'He's here' he whispered 'Yeah that's what i had to tell you, he was after Lucy he's gone mad again' George then turned to run back into the building and Nina tried to stop him but he ran off. 'George!' she screamed after him, i ran past her and after George; i'd been too late to save Annie but i wasn't leaving George and Mitchell too wherever he was, as i was running through the corridors after George i ran past a room. Inside which was a little woman with brown hair laid against the wall, sobbing. That must be Lucy, i thought- talk about a downgrade. I paid Lucy no more attention and continued running as fast as i could. 'George! Wait!' i shouted, he stopped and turned towards me then extended his arm to me, i took his hand and we continued running until we came to a long dark corridor. I could hear voices. We turned down the corridor and saw Mitchell, covered in blood holding an old man up against the wall. George turned to me 'Kemp, he- he killed Annie' he said solemnly. I looked at him with pure terror, i could tell he was conflicted; did he save Kemp or let Mitchell dish out revenge, losing even more of his humanity in the process. George looked at me and i nodded. I let go of his hand and ran towards Mitchell and Kemp. As i got closer i could hear Kemp taunting Mitchell.

'Mitchell, please stop!' i shouted. He kept his eyes fixed on Kemp 'Ash, he killed her, her took her from us' 'I know, but you don't need to do this' i stated, trying to calm him down 'I'm gonna rip his throat out' Mitchell said and his eyes turned black, i decided to take a different approach to stopping Mitchell. 'Fine, do it, if you wanna rip his throat out and take away what little humanity you still have, look at you havn't you had enough death? But if you wanna kill him fine, do it BUT DONT YOU DARE DO IT IN ANNIE'S NAME!' i screamed and Mitchell turned to look at me. Suddenly George appeared by my side, 'you know she wouldn't want this Mitchell, I've lost one best friend. I'm not losing another' tears now cascaded down all our faces except Kemp's. He just smirked. I held out my hand to Mitchell and smiled, George did the same. Hesitantly Mitchell took our  hands and released Kemp; he fell against us and we helped him walk out. We met back with Nina at the entrance and ran to George's car. I got into the back with Mitchell, he put his hand in mine and smiled at me, dried blood was all over his hair and face. 'Thank you' he whispered 'what for?' I asked 'coming back and saving me' he replied then he kissed my cheek. George put his foot down; We didn't know where we were going or what to do but one thing was for sure- we had to get away.
