What would I do now? I couldn't let Ryan Die.

He was my best friend.

The moment I saw him running the blade through his heart, my body turned numb. My mind was not working. Tears were welling up in my eyes and rolling down my cheeks as I saw him doing it to his lovely existence. I was screaming again and again, wishing that the heart of the filthy creature would melt but all in vain. He was evil. Richard was evil. He would not stop doing what he did. It mattered less to him if anyone died or lived.

I screamed with all my might,"Let him go!"

Then I saw Richard coming out of Ryan's body. Ryan fell on the ground. I was not able to move but as I saw Ryan falling on the floor, I gathered all my strength and moved. He was lying on the floor. Blood was spilling out of his eyes. On the other side, stood Richard, his clothes rugged and torn to several pieces while his eyes were all red and he was covered in bruises. I moved slowly making a trail of blood which flowed out of the wound in my stomach. Finally, I reached where Ryan laid. 

His shiny eyes were not there anymore. His clothes were covered in blood and his sweet smile was to be seen nowhere. I sat near him and saw the dagger that was pierced in his heart. I put my hands on its handle and pulled in out. As soon as I pulled it out, I saw Ryan coughing out blood from his mouth. He was still alive. I brought my ears to his heart and I heard the sound that it made. His heart was beating.

Then he spoke,"Isa....Where......are....you?"

I quickly grabbed his hand and said between tears,"I'm here."

"I don't think I'll surv.."

"No! Don't say that! I know you'll live! You have to live!'' I yelled as tears flowed out of my eyes.

"Isa...you were my first friend..my best friend."

"I know."

"The few days I spent with you and Ana were the happiest days of my life. If I die..."

"Don't say that!"

"If I die, promise me you'll not just survive, you'll live."

"Don't say that! Ana and I can't dream of a life which is without you!"I cried as tears rolled down my eyes and fell on his face.

"You're a crybaby."said Ryan as he forced a thin smile on his face.

I cried as I embraced him tightly. 

I looked at Richard and he had a devilish smile on his face as he saw Ryan's pitiful state. 

Suddenly, I saw the wall with the window broke to pieces as I saw the figure of a girl tied to a sparkling rope. She was thrown by someone so hard that it broke the wall. I looked at her and realized that she was Zara. She was tied by a heavenly spell. After that, I saw Ana yelling,"You bitch!"

Ana appeared in front of me and looked at Zara. 

She stood in front of me but she was not looking at me. She looked at Zara who was tied by a heavenly spell of Ana. Ana captured her and brought her here.

Suddenly, Ryan groaned in pain.

I quickly turned my gaze towards him and said,"Ana's here."

I looked at his eyes which were not in their place anymore. I looked at his heart which was bleeding.

Ana looked behind and as soon as she saw Ryan, she broke out in tears and said,"I'm late. I'm sorry. Ryan!"

We both looked at each other and then at Ryan.

Ryan struggled to say,"Ana..Isa...time to say goodbye."

"No!"

"What's wrong with it! I know goodbyes are painful. But you have to accept what happened and continue living"he said as he wore a thin smile on his face.

"What if we don't accept it?What if we don't accept a life which is without you?!"yelled Ana.

I could sense the pain in her voice. Endless and unbearable pain which was breaking the two of us apart as we see our dear friend, our Ryan dying.

"You two are stubborn!"said Ryan as he forced a thin smile on his face.

Suddenly, Ryan coughed out blood and he struggled to say,"Isa...Isa..."

"I'm here!"

"Isa.....I...love you!"

"I love you too."

Then, the smile on his sweet face faded away. I saw Ana putting a hand on her mouth as she controlled herself from crying. 

She screamed,"Ryan!"

I felt Ryan's pulse. I could feel nothing. I put my ear on his chest to feel his heartbeat but I couldn't feel anything. My body turned numb as tears were welling up into my eyes.

I heard Richard laughing as he said,"Your Ryan is dead!"

"No!"I screamed.

I shook Ryan violently as I screamed again and again,"Ryan! Wake up!"

No response. He was not moving anymore. I touched his forehead. It was as cold as ice. His skin turned pale. 

"Ryan! You have to live! Wake up!"I yelled again and again.

My heart and mind just couldn't believe that Ryan was no more. My heart was experiencing such agony that was breaking me apart. 

I heard Ana screaming in pain as she said,"What's the use of that power that I bear if I couldn't save my friend! I'm a bitch! I should have come earlier! I should have saved him!"

I pulled Ryan's dead body towards me and embraced him tightly as tears flowed out of eyes. I lost my parents. I lost my granny and now I was losing Ryan. I lost him. 

I would not be able to see him coming towards me. I would not be able to laugh at his jokes anymore. I would not be able to feel his touch and his support. He was the one who supported me every time. He was the first person who talked to me when I was a stranger and a new student at this school. He was the one who gave me the courage. He was the one who embraced and consoled me every time I cried.

I stood up and hugged Ana. I made her stand on her feet once again as I said,"Ana, stand up! We can't afford to lose a single innocent soul now! We have lost enough! We have to fight!"

Anastasia

I didn't know that Isa was that strong. She saw Richard killing Ryan right in front of her eyes. Now, she was telling me to stand up and fight. 

After a lot of struggle, I captured Zara and brought her to this room so that I could finally destroy her. This room is where she killed Alma so I had to destroy her here. Even all the spirits would be destroyed here. 

When I saw Ryan lying on the floor, my heart broke apart. I couldn't save him. This was my regret.

Suddenly, Isa yelled as she looked at Richard and Zara,"You stole something dear to me right in front of my eyes! You mother fucker! You dumbass! You idiot! You'll pay for what you did!"

Then, I saw Diana coming inside the room.

I looked at Isa. Her back was shining, red and black light coming out of it. The Satanic Cross. It was shining. Then I saw Isa's heart glowing, white light coming out of it.

I didn't accept that it would ever happen. I looked at Diana and she looked at me.

"This can't be true!"I yelled as I saw Isa.

This had happened in very rare cases.

I saw Isa turning into truth and lie, right and wrong, good and evil, God and Devil.

I saw Isa turning into half Demon and half Angel.

Now what?
