Alice's p.o.v
" Lucy! Lucy, where are you?" I get no reply.
Orange fire works shoot into the sky.
" Hhhhhheeeeeellllllppppp!!" Someone yells.
I run towards the voice. Faster and faster.
I trip once, a log fell over.
I see a lake.
Water, no I can't be thirsty.
It could be,
" Allllliiiicccceee!! HELP ME!" There it is again.
I run as fast as I can.
I see,
JOANNE!
" You scum lying idiot! LET HER GO!" I scream. Joanne has Lucy somewhere.

But where?

" GIVE HER TO ME!' I yell. I can't stand this.
" I will on one condition," she says. I interrupt.
" WHAT?!? ANYTHING, JUST GIVE HER!"
" Give yourself to me! You die, Lucy lives. Fair deal." I don't know. I love Lucy so I must do what's right.
" Deal! NOW LET HER GO!" I scream.
She comes out from behind her. She is bleeding and injured.
" RUN LUCY!" I yell.
" No I can-" she starts.
" No! RUN BEFORE SHE GETS YOU TOO!" Lucy starts to run, but then I face Joanne.
" Now HERE!-" she threw her knife.
My in-stinks kick in.

I ducked.

" Haha, you missed!" I say, I'm ready to run.
" No I didn't!" I turn around.

" LUCY!" I yell!
" I... Tried to... Helll-" she falls.
" No Lucy, don't go!"
I turn to Joanne.
She ran.
I turn back to Lucy and pick her up.

" No Lucy!" I say in a calmer voice.

Fire works shoot into the sky.

A single tear goes onto my cheek.

It's done.

I put her down and kneel next to her.

"I'll never get a better friend."
