 Anne limps towards me.
"Je-Jess.... what just..."
Tears roll down her cheek and she hugs me.
"You're okay.." she says
"Yes Anne.. im okay.." I say.
Anne sobs into my  shirt.
"Its okay Anne.. you're safe." I say, unsure of my own words.
"I saw- I"
Anne cries.
"What did you see?" I ask.
"Mo-"
She cries even more heavily.
"Crane.. Crushed... Max's mother." She says.
I gasp.
"Im sorry.." I say.
I do have a habit of apologizing for stuff that aren't my fault.
"Max... he doesnt have a parent now" Anne says.
My eyes widen as I think of Lily.
"We should go see Max." I say.
"Y-yes" she says.
I help her up slowly.
"His Father.. died of cancer." She says slowly.
The wrong dads have to die. Why couldn't my dad die of cancer instead?
A lot of police arrive.
"I herd whispers, Jess.. telling me to get out of the hospital and when I herd them, my ankle healed." She says.
"I herd them too. They told me to get out of the car." I say
"Why would they tell.. only us?"
"I dunno, Anne." I say

"I need to find out who it was" she says.

I was just as curious as she was, except I knew more than she did.

Suddenly a vision started coming over me.

--

Im back at Anne house, In her bedroom.

I remembered this time. It was ages ago...

This was when me and Lukas where still fighting and I still hated him.

I see Crow in the room.

Yes. Ive met Crow before.

The vision wasn't so clear though..

I remember Crow wanted me to fight more. He had liked my passion for fighting.

I was determined to Kill Lukas at the time, but there was a sense of anger that wasn't released yet and it felt like Crow wanted to summon it.

He had summoned a dove and told me to kill it.

"Have no Mercy." He told me when he saw I was hesitating to kill it.

I did kill it in the end, but only from fear of Crow.

Crow seemed dissapointed in me, but at the same time I knew he hadnt given up on me.

He dissapeared after that.

Now, That I'm not after Lukas anymore, I wonder what Crow thinks of me.

I do like Crow. He seems like a nice guy, he's just broken inside. He misses the one he loved and I do hope that one day he gets to see her again.
