Alexandre, the most complex character of all, the thing that make him so unique is that he never left his beliefs, he said that he was going to live a bad life, and he remained on such belief. What the company, the unfortunates, Queen of Disaster, and you, the readers didn't know, is that since the first death and suicide, he knew what's going to happen, he understood that no one is going to help you for no reason, he understood that there is always something that is going to ruin and mess things up.
He was a horrible person, he reminded me of me.
It took only a few for him to understand, but it took a lot for the rest to understand.
"We must ruin everything and make them go through hell." He said to Kathy and Emily, and if you are wondering how did I know, let's just say that I overheard their sneaky little conversation, but I didn't let anyone know, I thought that maybe, this will forgive my sins, however, it didn't.
"They wanted a smooth sail, well, we'll give them a tide."
The night came in, tomorrow was going to be an interesting day, it sure is something to watch.
"Pink lipstick stains, cigarette butts I lie in bed, I hate my guts, a day in the dark, a murdered afternoon-E.V.O.L, Marina and the Diamonds.
The song was the theme of the day, no one could've made my mood better, and it was time to drop your knees to the floor, hands to the sky, and give a round of applause to the great Miss Y. I'm no longer the queen of disaster, I am Miss Y am I here?
The clock ticked 11:11 p.m, the plan was soon to occur, on 2:11 p.m,the lights went off, no laptops or computers working, everyone panicked, except for me, to shortcut this for you, Alexandre shut everything down, Katy tied her hair up and found a way to load guns, Emily found a way to time this place to death. As for from where did their skills come, they are smart, they get taught easily, and the counting stars month taught them quite a lot of skills.
Everyone was trying to escape, running and creating havoc, and I sat still not moving a single bit. It was rather a sick scene, I'm laughing with liquor in my hand, everyone else is running, I hear the gunshots, I see the blood, I sit, I laugh, I cry.
I stood up and decided it was time to move, I walked slowly and sloppily, carrying my heels in one hand, and the bottle of liquor in the other. I felt alive and nothing scared me anymore.
While walking, I saw a dead smiling Emily, a dead body that is smiling, that is funny.
Once I got out of the place, I saw two dead shot bodies beside each other, Alexandre and one of our employees, Eric, they both shot each other at the same time causing them to die. Isn't that full of action?
Kathy was no where to be seen, and you can say that's pretty much it. In a miraculous way that I have no words to put into, I survived, wrote a book about it, I flied and I'm soon going to die.
So my six teenagers never had the life they all so longed for and deserved, which, ever since, I have always felt I stopped. But what sense of faith or cheerfulness could a reader derive from an ending like that? So, in the book, I wanted to give them all what they lost out on in life. I made them survive, no one died, not Cher, Daniel, Alexandre, Kathy, Emily and Edward. They all escaped, Sarah died, just like in every single good person/bad person story. Daniel and Cher got their Cinderella ending, and they managed somehow to get wealthy, and this was how the unfortunates became the fortunates.
I'd like to think this was not debility or evasion, but a final act of kindness.
I gave them their happiness.

"That's messed up" Talia said.
"You think?" I answered, showing sarcasm in my voice.
"You know, you look old, but you sound young."
"Please explain."
"Your thoughts are depressing, you have wrinkles, but the aura around you is so young and innocent."
"I would've believed you more if you stopped at young, I'm not innocent, I'm the devil in disguise."
"No you're not," Talia paused, "We are all sinners, but the best of all sinners are the ones who regret and try to return to the good."
"Isn't that nice of you to say."
"Miss Sarah Parker, I am going to die in a matter of few week, all I'm trying to do, is to leave a good impression."
"I guess the room is going to be empty then."
"Why? There is still you in the room."
"I'm leaving with you,"I pause catching my breath,"But my path is going to be a bit different."
"And how is that?"She asked, looking deeply and innocently into my eyes.
"You are going up and I am going down."
