The moon shone bright in the cloudy black and blue sky. She stepped closer to the water. Behind her she could hear screams and yells of terror but she didn't care and ignored them instead. In the distance she could hear a voice yelling with all their strength "Nooo!!!!". From the corner of her eye she saw a dark figure running from above the rock walls and down towards the shore. She took another step, tears escaped from her eyes. She smiled faintly and thought to herself "no more jokes and no more lies. They'll be happy without me after all they did say it would have been better if she was gone? No more hatred and insults and jealousy. And.... And no more love or giddy feelings that took control of her and made her mess up everything... every time." Her vision was blurred with  tears.

She was finally Closer to the water.
