Esmae tried squirming out of the butcher's grip, tears running down her cheeks as her hair brushed out of her face. "Miss Rose, accept your fate and end your misery." The butcher dropped Esmae from the edge, Esmae didn't wanna die. No. She began sobbing just as she saw her life flashing before her eyes; All of the painful memories coming back to life, slowly one by one. Suddenly, she realized Sachii wasn't... No... She wasn't real. Esmae was the one who loved Seth dearly, it was all clear now. Esmae's Skyfall finally came to an end, after she crashed onto the cement. A figure Came up beside the tragic incident and place a black Rose with a small note attached to it;

Not all roses have to be red.

Soon months later, the cement surrounding Esmae was filled with roses. Esmae groaned and slowly got up, the figure stared at her. "You truly are invincible miss Rose." Esmae smiled and got up, grabbing a black rope and heading down towards the lonely road. All the memories of her and Seth slowly came back.. Then the last dreadful memory was just about to come true. Esmae tied the black rope to the branch of the cherry tree, slipping the rope over her neck and writing the note. Esmae smiled and begun sobbing, grabbing her blades and slicing open her wrists. Her body gently swung in the wind, Seth soon arrived and bursted out into tears. A small tear, a small sliver of non silence just as her last tear fell onto the ground, just by a Rose. "Esmae... I knew you were Sachii... I'm so sorry I failed you again... You had another chance at life and I blew it, I wanted you to be happy, I'm so sorry."

Esmae gasped loudly and sat straight upwards. "H....Hey calm down, you'll be out of here soon." A boy, about the age of 15 maybe even 16 smiled at her, messing up esmae's hair gently. "Another nightmare? Or?" Esmae got up out of bed, grabbing her black hoodie and grey jeans. "Just another... Nightmare gone sweet." Hours later and Esmae was soon back at home; pure empty. Her mother left in an argument and her sister died of natural causes/Cancer. She warned them. Her father left and went to jail, she was alone. Silence filled the house as Esmae sat on the windowsill, looking out just as the rain poured down. "I'll miss you Sachii.." Esmae picked up a photograph of her & her twin together; The words were scratched in; Sachii & Esmae, twins. Esmae smiled and begun sobbing, burying her face into her knees. Giggling and laughter echoed throughout her head, Esmae glanced upwards towards a rope; a black rope. Esmae grabbed the rope and headed outside, towards a large cherry tree. She smiled a little just as she remembered everything even a note she written to Sachii her twin;

Dear Sachii,

I'm so sorry that you gotten cancer, I truly wish we could've lasted a little longer united as sisters. I'll miss you Sach,

Love Esmae. Your twin.

Esmae gulped and begun tying the rope to the branch. Tears ran down her cheeks just as one of her favourite songs came on; Safe & sound.

♪I remember tears streaming down your face when I said "I'll never let you go," when all those shadows killed your light... I remember you said "don't leave me here alone.." But all that's dead, and gone, and passed... Tonight... Just close your eyes the sun is going down, you'll be alright.. No one can hurt you now.. Come morning light.. You & I will be safe.. And... Sound.♪

The dropping of a body attached to a branch echoed throughout the pure silence. Months later, a Rose patch & a daisy patch was placed by two glorious graves; Sachii Masako & Esmae Masako. Memories flashed as two girls, swinging on a swing to the cherry tree, both twins. "Sachii?" Sachii smiled and pushed Esmae with every time she came back. "Yeah?" Esmae smiled and got off the swing, hugging Sachii tightly. "We'll be safe & sound as long as we're together."

Two ghosts as the form of angels were by the graves, hugging each other and sobbing. The taller one muttered softly, just as it begun to rain even more. "Welcome back sis, I missed you."
