Chapter 12: Death claims a life

*Four months later, Lucia prov*

It has been four months since Winter isolated herself. We have tried to talk to her but we only got silence. We have sent Sally up there.

"Winter? Do you want to build a snowman?" Sally asked.

"Go away Sally." Winter said.

"Okay, bye." Sally said, sadly walking away. She sadly walked downstairs.

"How did it go?" Elizabeth asked.

"I got 'go away Sally'" She said sitting on the couch.

"Don't worry child, she will come out and she will be herself. She still loves each of you." Slender said.

"But why did she isolate herself?" Sally asked.

"She almost killed Toby. She felt bad for almost hurting him." Slender said.

"I d-don't understand. I-I f-f-f-forgave her." Toby said.

"It's not what you do or say. She is beating herself up for what she did." Kaneki said.

"That night she wasn't herself. Something must have snapped." Cosmic said. Sally let a tear slip.

"What's wrong child?" Slender asked.

"I want Winter back!" Sally cried. My heart shattered when I heard this. Sally was close to us. I believe when Winter lost her sister she thought she would never be the same until we met the creepypastas. When Sally met her, I think Winter filled the hole her sister left behind. Suddenly the door flew open. A girl with long black hair stood in the door. she had a scarf wrapped around her head. Cover every inch of her face except her brown eye. He clothes were stained with blood. Her hands dripped with fresh blood.

"Who are you?" Liu asked. The girl snapped her neck towards him. Silence filled the air. She walked towards Sally. Sally became smaller. The girl kneeled in front of her. They sat there staring. Sally let another tear fall. The girl wiped her tear away. Sally smiled and gave them a hug. The stranger was taken back but soon hugged her back. When they pull the stranger stared at Sally.

"I know. You are worried about that? You shouldn't he forgives you." Sally said. The stranger stared at Sally once more.

"No one blames you. What? Oh that, I just miss someone that is part of the people I hold close." The stranger didn't say anything. It was as if Sally understood the stranger.

"It's okay." Sally said. The stranger got up and walked towards Toby. He sat still, staring at her. She held out her hand. Toby took it and they shook hands.

"She forgives you." Sally said. Toby looked confused.

"F-for w-what?"

"She doesn't want me to tell." Sally said. she walked over to bloody Painter. She drew a broken heart of his arm.

"No! Stop! What are you doing?!" Sally yelled. She turned around, staring at her.

"Oh,that's why you did that?" The stranger nodded.

"That's so sad. Want to tell him?" The stranger nodded again.

"Helen Otis, your girlfriend has been murdered. Reason: she was heating on you." The stranger said. She spun on her heels and walked upstairs.

"Sally? Who was that?" Laughing Jack asked.

"The girl? That was Winter."

*Painters Prov*

How could she? I gave her everything and she cheats on me? My body was numb. I couldn't feel nor move. I couldn't feel my heart beating in my chest. It was true, after all these years she cheated on me.
