"So, you don't have it?" Olivia asks.
"No. . . I'm sorry." I say.
Olivia looks sad and walk over to the couch and sits down. I sit down next to her to hug her.
"Hey Nathan, where do you think that necklace is?" I ask.
Nathan hasn't talked much when we both arrived here. All he said to us was that he was a Coradi too. Everyone looked stunned, esspesially Rogers, that there were more of me out there. Now after all the chaos is through, I can finally take a good look at him. He has a leather jacket, some jeans that are all ripped up, and his hair looked like it hasn't been cut in awhile. He had these clothes on throughout me getting saved by him. He looks like an 80's greaser with brown emo looking hair.
"Uh, you know. What if it fell out of your pocket when you almost fell out? Maybe that's why the warship stopped moving." He says after a long pause.
I haven't thought of that. They must have spotted the necklace falling. That must be it!
"Yes, of course! That's it!" I say.
Olivia gets up with excitement and pull me up from the couch and hugs me.
"Thank you both! However, I want to come with you." Olivia says.
"Whoa, no no. You can't come with us." Nathan says.
"Why not?" Olivia shouts. "It's my necklace! I've had visions of that necklace, so it must be special! I want to retrieve it myself."
Nathan looks at Olivia then down at the ground, closing his eyes, then sighs.
"Alright, fine. You can come along. You know what, anyone else?"
Olivia jumps with glee and hugs Nathan. He just brushes the hug off like it's nothing. Then, Nick comes walking up to him.
"I'll come too. She's an amazing friend and I want to be on her side."
"Alright," Nathan says. "Just don't get hurt."
Nick comes up to Olivia and they both hug together. Rogers, Dan, and Mariah will stay behind. Wait, Mariah! I forgot to check on her. Did anyone tell her that I'm still alive?
I walk into the big room to check on her. She isn't there. I check the rest of the rooms until I find that the roof door is open. I climb the ladder that's there and notice Mariah sitting on the roof. I walk up silently and sit down next to her. She notices and hugs me tightly.
"Rose! What happened?!" She says while not letting go of me.
"The military got to me and I couldn't have escaped. Luckily, Nathan got to me somehow and saved me." I say, without letting go of her.
She lets go of me and looks into my eyes. She looks at me for awhile until she starts to kiss me. Luckily, there won't be any interruptions. I kiss back and she ends up on top of me. We kiss longer until she takes off her shirt. I do the same.

I can obviously hear Mariah and Rose doing something up there but I'd rather not see what it is. I'm in the hallway to see what the others are doing. I check up on Olivia and Nick to see if they're ready. I walk in and I catch them making out. They're seriously not ready for this. I try to cough to get their attention.
"Excuse me. You want to go right away or what?"
Olivia looks at me with a blush and Nick looks surprised that all of this is happening. They're both on their bed. Nick is on top of her, and I'd rather not know why.
"Oh, um. . . How about we leave tommorow?" Olivia asks with her hand on Nick's hand.
I sigh. They need to get the necklace as soon as possible. I walk up towards them and squat near them.
"No. . . You need to leave. What if they already have the necklace, huh?!" I yell.
Olivia gets a bit frightened but understands. She lets go of Nick's hand and walk away, probably to get her stuff ready. Nick does the same and follows her. I still squat where I am and sigh with my hand on my face.

Olivia whistles at us as we walk into the living room about five minutes later. We're both holding hands and we both have really messed up hair and our clothes have wrinkled. We instantly blush and look away. Nathan ignores this and tells us that we have to go. I kiss Mariah goodbye and we head out for the plane. I'm in the front seat with Nathan, and Olivia and Nick are in the back seat together. We take off and I can see Mariah looking at the plane in the distance when I turned around.
It's late. I should sleep. I can't though from all those nightmares we've been having. Both Olivia and Nick are sleeping together and it makes me yawn. I'm just so tired. I'm about to pass out until Nathan breaks the silence.
"Oh, are you two a thing?" He asks.
"Oh, um. Yeah, we are." I reply a drowsily.
"Ah love. I remember when I still had that." He says.
I look at him with a confused look. He glances at me and looks back to the sky.
"Look, I'd rather not talk about this right now. I'm sorry I brought it up." He says.
I look back to the right side window. I wonder he means by that. I'm about to open my mouth when all of a sudden, I yawn again. Then I shut my eyes.

I'm back in Washington DC. Everything looks normal. Luckily nothing is in ruins by Xanthus. I walk around and look and children playing at a park. They look so happy. Until I see Xanthus appearing out of nowhere and stabbing one of the children in the heart. The child falls down on the ground after he pulls out his staff from his chest. Then, Xanthus looks at me.
"Why, hello there Rose. Trying to get at my necklace eh?" He says.
