Becca's Father's POV  (Names are not actually their names.  :P)

I brushed Becca's hair with my fingers.  Something was wrong with her.  They had unhooked the heart machine from her because it only flatlined, (ISN'T THIS A WORD?!?) but she wasn't dead.  She was still breathing and her brain still functioned.  The doctors couldn't figure it out at all.

"Dan, she'll be OK.  She's our daughter.  You know how tough she is."  Ginny reassured me.

I internally chuckled.  We'd been divorced since 2012, but we still got along.  We're a very strange family.

I sighed.  "4 and a half months...she'll have to repeat 9th grade...."  "We shouldn't care about that.  1.  If she awakes alive and well, we should be grateful.  2.  She pretty much has straight A's anyways.  If she has to repeat, she'll pass.  Besides, she's technically ahead a grade."

I looked up at Ginny.  I had never told her this...but I think I needed to.  "Ginny...I know why she's in a coma....  Just...hear me out.  When she went into that coma about 6 months ago, her conscience...traveled to a different dimension.  This sounds crazy, I know, but both Rachel and Becca experienced it."

She looked skeptical.  "Where?"  "She's been watching this series on YouTube, and it's call The Crafting Dead.  Apparently, the dimension she traveled to is kinda like a different plotline of the same story."

She looked at me strangely before sighing and stroking Becca's cheek.  "You've never lied.  I'll believe you.  When will she come back?"

I shut my eyes and sighed.  "When she's completed what she needs to complete."

Red's POV

I sighed deeply.  I felt...different, but...I just didn't know.

Becca kept glancing at me as she tried to stop them from shooting me.  Her eyes showed confusion, hope, and worry.  She really cared.

"You're a strange girl, Becca."  I chuckled.  "One moment you want to kill me, the next you're trying to protect me."

She wrote something down and showed it to me.

'I can say the same about you.  One moment you're trying to capture me, the next you...I don't even know.'

I smirked and shook my head before sitting back down in my chair.

"I don't even know anymore."

Becca wrote something down and showed it to Nick.  "That's not----"  She held up her hand before writing something else and showing it to him.

Nick sighed before pulling out a key from his pocket.  Becca took it and walked over to Kam, unlocking his cuffs.  She helped him up and somewhat carried him over to me.  I stood back up to let him sit in the chair.

She wrote again and showed it to the gang.

AK frowned.  "Becca...."

*SCRATCH SCRATCH*

AK sighed. 

Ok, then.  If you're positive...."

She nodded and turned to us as she was writing something again.  She then showed it to us.

'We're promising to leave you alone as long as you don't bother us.  Is that good?'

I nodded.  "Understood."

She sighed and placed the quill in the book, shutting it.

Nick came up behind Becca before looking at me.  "Be careful, Red."

I nodded as the gang filed out of the room.  Becca was the last one to leave.  She turned back to me and smiled warmly.  It felt...strange to see someone being kind to me after so long....

"Goodbye, Becca."  I whispered.

She nodded and left, leaving the door open so we could still see.

I looked at Kam.  He was breathing heavily, but he was tough.  "Kam, I'm gonna go tell the rest of the group to stand down from Nick's group.  You gonna be ok?"

He nodded, wincing slightly.

I smiled before leaving.

Becca's POV  (After they left the prison)

I coughed slightly before running up to Nick.  I opened my book and wrote.

'What about Ghetto and Jin?'

Nick winced.  "...Dead...."  (YEP.  I JUST DID THAT.  FITE ME.) 

I frowned.  I must've grown tougher because I didn't cry.

*TIME SKIP CUZ YOLO*

When we got back to the Washington Monument, I felt an extremely familiar tugging sensation.

My eyes went wide as THE portal appeared next to the doorway of the monument.

Nick, AK, and Shark weren't really surprised, but Corey, Uni, and the fish dude freaked out a little bit.  (Yes, I know he stayed behind in that cabin, but this is MAI STORY.  (:)

"The flip is that?"  Corey exclaimed.

"That's Becca's way home.  That means she has done whatever she needed to have completed."

He turned to me.  "Will you ever come back?"  I lifted 1 finger and nodded.

"So just one more time...."

I smiled sadly at them before walking next to the portal.  Before I walked through, I wrote something in the book and tossed it towards the group.  I waved goodbye and jumped through the portal.

Nick's POV

The portal disappeared.  I picked up the book Becca had tossed towards us.  I smirked as I read what she wrote.

'Until next time!  ;)'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This book is nearly over.

I mean, it's gonna be 3 chapters longer than the last book, so that's good, right?  :P

Sorry for shortness.
