I woke up to Angel screaming. I was amazed that no one came running to her to find out what's wrong. I shook Angel awake.

"Angel?" When she didn't immediately wake up I began to freak out a bit. "Angel?" I shook her a bit harder than before. Tears were pouring out of her eyes. She finally woke up. She looked at me frightened.

"Crystal." She came over to me and sat in my lap. I cradled her in my arms. "Crystals dead body."

"It'll be alright." I gave her a hug. She looked up at me

"Ashley told me she misses you." My heart broke a little. "Brown curly hair?" I nodded. "She's still alive. She's worried about you. She said she began to worry about you when she didn't find you at the hospital next to her. She wants you to go back." She bit her lip and looked away. She got off my lap and sat against the wall, still not looking at me. "You're gonna go look for her aren't you?"

I thought about. Would I really leave Angel just so I could find out if Ashley was still alive? No. I couldn't. But I could possibly just bring Angel with me. "Yeah, if you come with." She looked up at me and smiled.

"We'll get going in the morning, before everyone wakes up." I nodded.

"Okay." She sat back down on my lap and fell asleep. I couldn't get myself to fall back asleep so I stayed up.

While she slept for 5 more hours I played with her hair and thought deeply.

Could Ashley really still be alive? I shook my head. I didn't want to believe it but I knew it was possible.

I grabbed my phone and went to omegle. I typed Ashley's full name. I connected to someone really fast.

"Hello. Why did you join a conversation about this girl? I did because I wanna learn more about this 'accident'."

"I came to find out if she really is still alive." The person responded super fast.

"Yes she is. It's amazing."

"Would you happen to know how I could contact her?"

"Hm... Sorry. Nope."

"Okay. Thanks anyways. Have a great day." I disconnected then tried connecting to the same conversation but with a different person.

"Hello. Why are you starting a conversation about me?" My eyes went wide.

"Ashley?!"

"Yeah?" I smiled.

"It's Jason!"

"How do I know?" I tried to think of something.

"Do you think we could maybe Skype? You'd be able to tell it was me then."

"Uh... Sure...." I smiled.

"I'll call you in a bit." I went to the home screen and then went to Skype. I looked for her Skype and called her. 'Ring, ring! Ring, ring!' She answered.

"Hello?" I turned my camera on.

"Hey Ash." She didn't turn her camera on so I didn't see her reaction. "Sorry it's so dark." She fumbled on her words.

"Jason! Wha.... How.... Oh my god!" I smiled. "Where did you go? I've been searching all over for you!"

"When you got shot I thought that you had died and I just ran away to a church. Some nice people that were there have been taking care of me. They live in Rapid City, South Dakota."

"Jeez. Why were they in Minnesota?"

"They do things with churches."

"Oh..." She got quiet. "Are you ever gonna come back?" I nodded my head.
