"Hurry up Sean!" I heard Signe call fron the top of a hill, the warm sun beaming down on her golden hair. "Coming!" I yelled as I lifted my feet up the small hill, I closed my eyes and smelled the fresh grass. Something seemed off, but I kept running. "C'mon Seany!" she gigged, I kept running. "I'm trying." I gasped out of breath, she was getting farther and farther away. "Why did you leave me?" She screamed, I froze and fell. "I'm sorry Signe!" I yelled, feeling a lump of guilt in my stomach. "How could you leave me!?" She yelled pulling at her throat. "I am sorry!" I screamed, tears in my eyes. She ripped her chest open and a black ooze poured out. "I'm sorry I'm so childish, I'm sorry I can't take care of Paige, let alone myself!" She looked me dead in the eyes, green meeting blue. "You're right." She said smiling.
