“Now… we run” I told them, jumping down from the table and pushing through the screaming, panicking crowd in order to reach the back door, with Jack and Mikie hot on my heels. The soldiers had started making their way through the crowd, panicking lawbreakers jumping out of windows, thinking that they would get arrested. But no, these soldiers only wanted two people… “Mikie!” I called out to him, he caught up to me, Jack doing the same. I was about to tell him, but that was when we reached the door to the back room, I threw it open and ran inside. The boys following behind, “barricade the doors!” I screeched, slamming it shut as people started trying to get through. We put all sorts of things up against it, barrels of all shapes and sizes, Jack started getting distracted… Turns out there’s alcohol in these barrels… “Now’s really not the time Jack,” I told him, he nodded wiping wine off his chin and we continued to stack. “What were you trying to tell me Bella?” Mike asked me, I let out a sigh, I guess it was time to say goodbye, time to tell him to leave us and save himself. Of course he wouldn’t leave unless I told him the truth… But how could I? How could I tell this amazing guy that I wasn’t Bella… I was Rose Hollow. A murderer. I stepped back from the barrels and lifted up my sleeve, showing both men the sparrow branded into my arm. They gasped and looked at me, hurt clear in their eyes. I hung my head, “Go,” I whispered, “Please go,” and then I felt it, the horrible pain through my heart. This must be what it felt like to have my heart break. I heard yells and thought that they were angry. But I was wrong. I fell to the floor, the pain too much to bear I let out a strangles choke. I lifted my hand to my chest, and that’s when I saw the blood. No, this wasn’t heartbreak. I had been shot.

They ran over to me, tears clear in Mike’s eyes. “I don’t care, I don’t care Bella,” He told me, putting my head on his lap, “just don’t die, please don’t,” he started sobbing, gently rocking me back and forth. I wanted to say something, anything, but it hurt so much I was worried that if I dare open my mouth I would scream. “It hurts, it hurts so much Mikie,” I told him softly, my vision was getting blurry, was I crying? Or was this the end. Jack was kneeling on my other side, he just looked at me, and then I saw something in his eyes that I did not expect, no, not hate. Tears. He leaned over and kissed me gently. He knew, he knew that this was the end. “No, no no no,” Mike repeated, refusing to give me up. Jack held my hand and looked into my eyes, “The times were good,” I heard banging on the door, they were going to get through. “Mikie, Jack, I love you guys,” I said weekly, “goodbye,” and I gave up, I stopped fighting and let the darkness consume me. Because I knew, that that was the only way to make Mikie leave. Without me. I felt a tear land on my face, I expected it to belong to Mikie, but no, it was Jacks. I smiled. And let go. “NO!” Mikie screamed, dear Mikie, my Mikie, “C’mon kid, we gotta go,” I heard Jack tell him, Mikie was fighting, Mikie stop fighting I wanted to tell him, but I couldn’t. Because I was leaving now. Going to the place of my dreams. The doors burst open and red surrounded me, I heard running footsteps “They’re getting away!” someone yelled. And that was the last thing I ever heard.

The best thing.

Hey guys :) so sorry this is so short, but i kinda wanted to leave it here (and no, this is not the end of the story *gasp*) so yea, only a couple more chapters to go :)plz comment and tell me what you think! personally i think the first paragraph is a bit rushed, but i cant really think what else to do, and i dont mind the second paragraph too much.

btw, i know lots of people probably dont read the authorettes note, (i dont like calling myself an author, for some reason it makes me feel like a guy...) but yea, here is the reason behind the brand.

Bella/Anabeth/Rose's brand was of a sparrow, its this organisation of people who are sent to kill Jack Sparrow cos hes too revoloutinary, so the main charecter was forced into this by the guy she pushed off the cliff because he apparently had a way to kill everyone she loves. so she went to kill Jack and blah blah blah, you know the rest. so yea, thats why they were all hurt, cos shes a sparrow and trying to kill them... or is she?
