The girl with gills

Run

Emma pov

I saw Peggy and she was running toward me she was scarred and happy. It was bittersweet because I was so happy that this girl is living and survived but

Wait

What the hell

OH CRAP

"PEGGY WE NEED TO GO LIKE RIGHT NOW!" I screamed

There was a flipping army running after her

"WE GOT TO GO NOW" I said waiting for her to keep up with me

We ran, ran, and ran from the government

They found her

We can't keep doing this for the rest of are lifes

I don't want to live like this

I need to make sure Peggy is safe

I need to do this so Peggy can live a normal life.

Goodbye Peggy

We got to a river bend
My heart pounding like a brass drum
We are scared, tattered, beaten children

This isn't fair

But life isn't fair

We shouldn't be there for sexual harassment or government experiments. We shouldn't be running away from abusers or bullys. We shouldn't be working 24/7 just to make sure we have a good life. We shouldn't have to do anything that we have already done and seen the things we have seen. We shouldn't, we shouldn't, we shouldn't but life isn't fair.

"I love you, Peggy"

I pushed her into the water and let them capture me.

Goodbye Peggy

I love you

Wait for me
I'm coming too.
