I exhale the deeply after telling Harry how I truly felt and he finally grasp the idea I was talking about. Maybe he thought I was erratic for thinking such thing but I never looked at it as selfish. The way Harry scrutinized me seemed otherwise. There was no way he would approve of this but he hasn't interrupted once so I stood in front of him - motionless.

His arms were crossed right before me as he analyzed my face very closely. It was like getting interrogated by the police for something I haven't done.

"You care so little about yourself, Marilyn" Harry's first words made me feel more ashamed about what I'm doing. I am surprise he didn't say how selfish I was being. "It's time you should realize how much there is to live for, you can't live in constant fear for the rest of your life because of this mysterious dark man." He sighs. Then again...it was like he was hinting how selfish I am being.

"He wants you to have cold feet, don't you see? He's slowly waiting for you to go crazy but you can't let him. You can't let him take anymore from your life" he whispers smoothly trying to make his point.

Harry had a strong point and I could swear that if I let myself die - nothing won't change. The man would still be out there ready to go hunt more. I believed even if I turn out to be dead he would have some kind of win. But I still didn't know what he wants from other than the fact he wants me to lead some kind of army. If that was the case? Why would he have let me died that night of the dance?

I let out a quiet sob as a tear rolled down my cheek. I felt Harry swipe it away and pulled up my chin to look at him. "You can't let him win" he sighs granting me a rigid nod.

What if he was right? I mean when it came across spirits that I help - I was inclined to help those to cross the light and to have Harry gave me a wake up call I was telling myself that I should just quit? That my job out there was done? No, I wasn't ready to sacrifice myself. There is so much to learn and experience the real reason why this shadow man has been rendezvous towards me. If he wanted a fight, he was getting one.

After a long time of thinking this hard I nodded at Harry confirming him that I was listening. I attack him with a hug and he was quick to retrieve my steps. His warm embrace making me feel secured and I felt better that I wasn't alone in this. God, did I feel much more sharpened and stronger than ever.

Harry and I let go of each other as we heard footsteps coming our way. We caught a glimpse of Alfie being defeated as I held the gun in my hand and held the other one with his. Louis and Marcel carried on lifting Isaac as he limped his way to follow me. Eleanor was nowhere to be seen but I knew where she had gone.

I realized we were all heroes that night.


"This is were I get brutally shot, don't I?" I said looking down.

"Come on, you're not alone. I got you" he smiles putting his arm around my shoulders.

"How are you so tall?" I asked him as we walk along the corridor.
