Lost Girl

Chapter 8

Myra entered the room with Zoella, everyone turned around and looked at them in shock. " I thought I would never see you again." Farrah said as she hugged Myra tightly. Zoella stared at her mothers lifeless body in the bathtub from a distance. "She's gone, isn't she?" Zoella asked as tears began to form in her eyes. " if it wasn't for your mothers sacrifice, you both wouldn't be alive, her life deserves to be celebrated." Farrah said as she hugged Zoella. " she was always one hell of a brave woman, I could never be more proud of her." Zoella said with a smile as tears began pouring down her face. " she will truly be remembered, I promise." Danica said with a smile. " come on ladies, and Brandon, let's finally go home." Myra said.

Erin, George's servant approached the guards at George's secret room with the cure for Natalie inside of it. " hold on a second little lady, you have no business here." The guard said rudely. "Actually, she does." Gianna said as she came out of nowhere and tackled the guard causing him to fall down. "Help me!" He yelled as Gianna opened her mouth and began sucking all of the energy out of him. Erin stood there watching her in shock as the guard was finally dead. "Sorry, needed to feed." Gianna said with a laugh as she smashed the glass doors open with her fists. "Hey, remind me to never pick a fight with you, Gianna." Jake laughed as the four of them walked into the secret room. "There it is. The cure for my Natalie." Zara said as she walked up to the platform with her eyes glued to it. "Don't touch it! The alarm will sound!" Erin yelled, but it was too late, the alarm began beeping enough for the whole village to hear it. "God damn! We need to run!" Gianna said as Zara grabbed the needle and bolted out of the room with the others.

Myra and Zoella were sitting on Myra's bed trying to relax after everything that just happened. "I can't believe my mom is gone, just like that, in an instant. I wasn't expecting something so awful like this to happen, it's just so...tragic." Zoella said with tears in her eyes. "I see where you get your strength from, it's from her. I truly wish I had a longer chance to know this woman, you should always be proud." Myra said with a smile. "We weren't that close, I'm not gonna lie to you. With or without my dad in the picture, I quite honestly never visited her much, I knew she was lonely. I regret now that she's gone for good, I just can't forgive myself." Zoella said as she broke out in tears. "It's not your fault Zoella, you're not the one to blame." Myra said as she hugged Zoella as tightly as she could. "You know this bond we have? I hope it never breaks, ever." Zoella said as she squeezed Myra tightly. "This is a bond that can never be broken." Myra replied back with a smile.

Brandon was at the police station alone working night shift, he heard a knock on the front door, as he checked the security cameras, he saw A very beautiful woman with blond hair standing there. "May I help you?" He asked through the intercom. "Hi, I am here for my interview." She replied. "Okay?" Brandon said in confusion as he buzzed the girl in. " you look confused, were you not expecting me?" The woman asked with a cocky smirk. "I'm gonna be honest, no, not at all." Brandon replied with a laugh. "Figures. I'm Alex Lavin, nice to meet you." She said as she gave Brandon a firm handshake. "What position are you applying for exactly?" Brandon asked. "Whatever you have available, just please give me a call whenever you want me to start, hopefully I won't have to wait too long." Alex said with a wink as she left a small piece of paper at the desk, and left the station before Brandon could say anything else. He picked up the piece of paper she left at the desk, and it was her number.

   "There's a secret tunnel leading outside to the front of the entrance right here, please use it, it'll be okay." Erin said as she pressed the yellow button on the wall and a big door slide open. "Come with us." Zara begged. "I can't. He'll find me somehow, then kill me. That's just not an option right now." Erin said with tears in her eyes. "Thank you for everything." Zara said as she quickly hugged Erin. "No problem. Now go!" Erin yelled as the three of them ran into the tunnel, and Erin closed the doors behind them. As she turned around, George was standing there with his face red with anger. "What was that." He yelled. "Just let me explain!" Erin begged. "There's no time." George said as he hit Erin so hard she blacked out.

   Myra came downstairs and saw Zoella gathering papers together in the library they had in the house. "What's with all the papers?" She asked. "It's my mother's funeral plans, I called the guy, it'll be in three days." Zoella replied with a cold tone. "You know I'm here to help you with anything you need." Myra said with a smile as Danica walked into the room. "Is it just me, or does the house feel so empty today?" She asked. "Zara and Gianna are out somewhere. Where's my mom?" Myra asked in confusion. "Right here." Farrah interrupted as she walked into the room. "Were you listening the whole time? You look like you have something to say." Zoella said. "Oh, girls, I certainly do. Let's just say, it's not good news. I'm gonna tell all of you when everyone is back in the house." Farrah said as she walked out of the room. "Why do I have a bad feeling about this." Myra said as the three girls sat there looking back and forth at each other in confusion, and somewhat fear.

   Zara busted through the front door of the house with Gianna and Jake following behind her. "Are you sure you wanna do this alone?" Gianna asked. "I'm sure, I just need some privacy while doing this." Zara replied as she ran downstairs to her lab. She stared at Natalie from behind the preservation chamber she was in. Zara presses a button causing the chamber to open up. She lied Natalie on a bed and grabbed the needle from her back pocket. "Please God...let this work." Zara whispered to herself as she stabbed Natalie in the neck with the needle and injected the cure inside her. Gianna quickly ran into the lab almost tripping down the stairs. "Any luck?" She asked. "Nope, nothing." Zara said in anger as she squeezed Natalie's hand trying to hold back the tears. "What could the hell could of we done wrong?" Gianna asked with a frown. "You did nothing wrong." Natalie replied as she opened her eyes.
