(Lily's POV)

Vincent fired me. Obviously because I didn't show to work. But how could I explain where I had been? I would just sound like a lunatic who escaped from an insane asylum. I was walking to the hospital to see the rose and passed an alley. A hand grabbed my shoulder. Then I felt a piece of cold steel enter my chest and heard a gun shot. As I fell I heard footsteps running to me. "Lily!" A familiar voice yelled. But at the time I couldn't tell who it was. All I knew was that they were a man. My vision was very blurry. I kept holding, clinging on to life. Something inside kept telling me to let go, be free. I would be the third Ro'meave to go in that hospital, and I might not go out. My family keeps getting picked off, one by one. And ambulance was heard in the distance. It sounded close, but distant at the same time. Sirens blared around me. "Get her on the stretch!" A woman's voice yelled. Then everything went black.

When I woke up I was lying outside. In the garden. I felt no pain, I felt normal. When I stood up I noticed two boys standing in front of me. Garroth and Zane. "Welcome to the garden, baby sister," greeted Garroth. "Hello, Lily." Zane looked at me with sadness in his eyes. Then I looked at the rose. One more petal lay on the ground. One more petal for me. I had joined my brothers in death, and I could guess Vylad was meeting us again here one day. Soon. "I'm dead...." I breathed, looking at the ground. "Yes. Sorry, sis." Zane sympathized. "But now you can come to the dances! Each night we have a dance in the garden. You can meet new people. Its all so much fun. We're free here." Garroth smiled. Then I sensed someone had entered the garden, two people came in. When I looked at the entrance I saw Vylad and Salenia. "How many of your friends and family have died recently?" The black haired girl asked. The brown haired boy awnsered, "Four. And four petals are on the ground. What does that mean?" "Sit down, Vylad." Salenia ordered. "Ok." He sat down. "Close your eyes and focus on the rose. When I say to, open your eyes." She blinked at him. Vylad did as told. After a few moments Salenia spoke again, "Open your eyes." He opened his eyes and looked at the rose. Then he looked at us. "I-I can see them....My siblings. But they're dead." Vylad stared wide eyed at us. "Hello baby brother." Garroth walked over to Vylad. Zane joined them, but I just sat down on the grass. The sun was beginning to set. "Hey, Vylad! Join us for the dance!" I said cheerfully. Ghosts were gathering inside of the violet flower protected garden. Vylad got up and stepped toward me. Salenia came forward too, and Laurance grabbed her from behind. We all danced around, ghosts and humans interacting. Then something happened, an explosion. Then the fifth petal fell.
