"But Daniel isn't evil Grayson."
"I know, but we've always had an enemy in our games before and Daniel seems like the perfect candidate."
"In what way?"
"Well it's usually one of us who's the villain, so it's better to change every once in awhile."
"True....all right, let's do it."
Chandler and I hugged.
"Thanks bro, you're the best and I love you."
"I love you too Grayson."

The game...
-2 hours into the game-
Daniel's POV
"Daniel, why are you doing this?"
"Because Grayson, your plan to resurrect me isn't going to work. I'm dead and you're just going to have to live with that. And you'll have to live knowing that it's YOUR FAULT THAT I'M DEAD!"
"How's it my fault? You were the one who proposed to me."
I walked over to Grayson and slapped him, leaving a decent sized mark on the right side of his face.
"What was that for?"
"To knock some sense into you, you little bitch! No matter what you do, I'm still going to be six feet under buried in that casket. So stop talking about resurrecting me, because we both know it's not going to work and I'm going to make sure you know that."

-30 minutes later-
"I...still love...you Daniel."
"And I regret becoming your boyfriend and your saviour."
"You don't mean that."
"I do though. Now stop talking about your plan to resurrect me, it's not going to work. And Chandler you're also an idiot."
"Why? For supporting my brother's plan to bring you back to life?"
"Yes!"
"At least Grayson and I have faith!"
"Only two people have the power to resurrect someone, and that's Jehovah GOD and his begotten son, Jesus Christ. So in what way will a bunch of jewelry resurrect me?"
"He has a point Grayson. We can't resurrect Daniel no matter what we do. All we'll be doing is putting his soul at rest, and that's it. Nothing can bring Daniel back."
"I'm still not convinced. I still have faith that my plan will work Chandler."
"A whole bunch of jewelry won't bring me back Grayson, and if it could everyone would be doing it just to see their dead loved ones again. All you will be doing is putting my soul at rest, and that's it. You guys can't bring me back. No one can. I'm dead and both of you have to live with that."
"There's really no way to bring you back to life?"
"Nope."

-2 and a half hours ago-
Grayson's POV
Time and time again I tell myself that I should just run away, run away and never look back no matter what. But I also tell myself that I should face my problems head on and to never ignore those around me and to never ignore anyone who tries to help me, but in the end I always end up at the same bridge above the Grapeseed river.

A/N: if you were wondering if this is real, it's not it's apart of the game.

"Grayson?"
"Yes Chandler."
"I wanted to talk to you about the new law you past."
"What about it?"
"A lot of people are saying that it's unfair."
"In what way is it unfair? All the new law is saying is that you need to be back in your house by 9:00 pm. But I did include that if you have a job that extends that curfew to 10:30 pm."
"That's why people are saying that it's unfair. And everyone wants you to get rid of this and I quote, "stupid, ridiculous, unfair, and selfish law."
"Fine. I'll get rid of this law, but they're going to be sorry when I do."
"Why's that?"
"Because I only passed this law for the safety of everyone who lives here in, Grapeseed County."
"What would we need protection from? We have the county police who decided to work day and night to protect us. And they don't change shifts until the week is finished."
"I guess you haven't heard of the Artistic Assassin."
"Does he paint on the faces of his victims?"
"No. During the day he disguises himself to wander around the next town over and during the night he draws the layout of the town and where all the guards or police are stationed, then he paints out his plan and then he makes his painting into a reality. He usually strikes when everyone in that town has gone to bed. That's why I passed this law, so we can catch this person and have him face the penalty for all the crimes he committed."
"What if he doesn't work alone?"
"Then we're going to have to be extra vigilant deputy Chandler."
"You're promoting me?"
"You earned it. You've brought one hundred and thirty-five criminals to justice in a single month, that's a hell of a lot more than any of the other officers here have done in a year."
"Thank you kindly Sheriff Grayson."
"You're welcome partner."
