Marin lies there. She looks gone.
Though she is already dead.
It looks as if her dead form is fading.
I shake.
"Bella. We need to get out of here. I know it--"
"YOU DONT KNOW SHIT! You caused this. I won't forgive you."
"I understand your angry. We have to be quick. She might return."
I stand. "Your saying this as if I'm coming with you. I'm going no where until she returns."
"When she does she will be angry and kill us all. Even you."
"Good. Cause at least you will go down along with me."
I grab the knife out of Marin's chest and grab Lily's hand. I put it against the wall and stab it. Forcing it to stay there.
Ariana yells. "Your going no where."
She throws a knife at me. I catch it. Putting it in her hand and pinning her on the other wall.
"Neither are you."
They pull at it.
It is no luck.
It is too deep.
I look to Marin. Who lays there peacefully.
She slowly opens her eyes.
I smile. "Marin."
"Bella. This is your last chance. GO!"
I kneel next to Marin and hold her close.
Her back to my knee. I cup the side of her withered grey face. I lean in and whisper in her ear.
"You know what you must do."
I then move my lips to her cheek.
I kiss it softly then pick her up.
She smiles warmly. Her eyes change. (Picture above)
She fades.
She then appears in front of Lily. I put my arms to the side. "Your coming with us."
Lily shakes at her eyes.
Lily explodes light going everywhere.
It then sucks into the wall.
Making a small portal. Marin faces away. Fire surrounds Ariana. Her eyes red.
She is at her full power.
Very dangerous.
"Go."
"Mari?"
"I said...go. She's too dangerous. I'll handle her."
"Mari your weak."
"I don't care." She takes my hand. "Be safe. Now...GO!"
I am pushed to the portal. Before I am forced through she gives me one last smile.
"NO!"
I am pushed through.

"Ariana..." Her nails appear. "Let us end this."

"Why did you turn on us?!?"
"It was for the protection of my mother! You would've done the same if it were me? Wouldn't you?"
"No. I wouldn't." This shocks her. "Because Marin wouldn't do that to you unless it was necessary. She kills the ones who kills others. Your mother killed your father!"
"DONT BRING THAT UP! Bella I trusted you until you sent her to kill my mother."
"I didn't send her. She sent herself to save her. Fuck Lily ever since we were children Ariana has been so sweet to us. How do you think she feels?"
"She's dead. She doesn't feel."
In anger. I punch her hard. "Don't...ever say that shit about her."
"I should've known. That you loved her."
"I love you Lily. But now I'm not so sure."
I step away. Letting her sit there tied to the chair. I close the door.

I sit on the edge of my bed.
"Marin?"
Marin has blood on her nails. Ariana dead on the ground. Marin is dangerously weak and hurt. Lily's house begins to burn down.
"L-Look. I know things are hard on you right now...being dead and all."
I get nothing.
Marin sits in a tree as her family pack their things to move. She watches them as they keep their silences slowly putting things in the moving truck.
"I understand....why you decided...to end yourself. I know you were suffering."
Marin stands yards away behind a tree as Bella stands at Marin's grave.
"You felt things were hopeless...there was nothing you could of done that would make you happy."
Marin curses and yells as she cuts her arm with a sharp blade. Blood spilling all over the bathroom. Her sister banging on the door for her to open up.
"All you really wanted was to find love. To find a reason....to look forward to something. Even if it was the littlest things."
I love you Bella. Those are my last words.
"You spilled your own blood just so you can feel pain...because you wanted that."
I am fine. I'm just glad your happy.
"The betrayal you felt."
YOU CHEATED ON ME?!?
"Your heart....broken."
I loved you until you slept with her!
"Now that I realize....all you really wanted was to end the pain...you didn't actually want to die...you were just done always being so sad and in pain."
I can't do this here. Not now. Somewhere private. Maybe she will see. Oh the possibilities.
"You became so sick in mind you did all you could to find the tiniest bit of happiness to keep you going...until.........you just couldn't find it...so you left."
I begin to cry.
"I should of seen that you were suffering. I shouldn't of believed you were better. I should of known you were just good at hiding things more. But I didn't. I became fucking blind and this happened. I-I could of stopped you. I could of healed you...I could of held you close to me and say it will be alright."
Marin stands in a dark corner watching me.
"I.....I should of said I loved you too. I should of paid more attention to you. AND I DIDNT!! I fucking...just didn't. And now thanks to me your dead. Forever suffering as a hurt spirit. Because I was too selfish and horrible to realize that the one who was really in pain and breaking...was the one who smiled and was the brightest. When you said I'm fine. You weren't. And you still aren't."
Marin drifts over to in front of me. Making it so I still don't see her.
"I miss you....I need you....I want you back....so....so....badly. I want another chance to be able to heal you. I want another chance to be able to love you. So that you never ever suffer in the first place."
"Bella." She appears. Making me jump.
"M-Marin..."
She puts her cold finger on my cheek. "I am here. I promise." I look at her arm. A large black spot is on it. Like it is black blood. Several are on her.
"Marin? What's going on with this?" I take her arm and examine it closely.
"There is nothing you can do."
She then disappears.
