Unhappily ever after

Chapter 5 - Fight or flight?

"So Isaac has a video of us burning Maddy..." I said, taking it all in.

Once we finished watching the last video, we just stood there, in shock. Knowing that we truly couldn't win this battle against A.

A knew and so did Isaac. Or maybe they are the same person. I don't know... I don't know anything anymore...

Becky started to pace across her bedroom floor. The sound of her pacing was starting to make me feel anxious. She stopped and turned to us. "We need to talk to Isaac, we need to find out who else knows about the videos and what they're planning to do with them, because I bet you that he's made copies."

"What if he shows the videos to the cops?" Ella asks us, her eyes on alert.

"We all know Isaac, he won't show the cops if it means he can watch us suffer." Melody says.

"He'll get what he deserves, in the end." Becky mutters.

Becky's laptop pings and she walks over to it, to look at the screen. "Oh my god."

"What?" I ask immediately.

"Take a look." And she steps aside for us to look at the screen on her desk.

It's a message from A and a video attached to it. I click on the video.

It's Ali and she's sitting on the kissing rock.

"This is from the night she died." I say to myself.

"How d'you know that?" Melody asks me.

"Because I remember she was wearing that top that night."

We turn to look back at the screen. Ali was smiling at whoever was behind the camera.

Ali stands up and walks towards the lens. "You know, the girls wouldn't be too happy if they knew about us." She giggles and kisses the camera man. As we hear the kiss, the camera stays where it is, showing the kissing rock.

Ali steps back from the camera man, and sits back down, she twirls a piece of her hair with her finger, flirting with him.

"They think they know me, but I have secrets too."

She smiles, looking at him dreamily.

You see a hand from behind the camera come out and holds Ali's hand, pulling her in for another kiss.

The camera drops to the ground. And we hear the continuous kissing. We suddenly hear a moan and a short scream.

Ali suddenly falls to the ground, the camera only showing her still hand.

We all gasp and I cover my mouth with my hands, in horror.

Her hand suddenly twitches and we all gasp at once.

"Oh my god." I say, staring at the screen.

I step back, not sure if I wanted to see my best friend die.

Her hand goes still again and the camera cuts to black.

We all stand there in silence, shocked at what we just witnessed.
