“Phoenix run!!” Arson screams. You look over to see the ground rise up and form a spear and stab arson through the back. Their guts spill on the ground and, there was blood everywhere.

You continue to look around to see Xay and Arrow in the ground, both bleeding out. You get hit with a blast, and as you’re flying in the air you hear “Game Over”.

Chapter 1

It was a Wednesday, you wake up to your friends yelling at you to get down there. As you get up and put on your clothes, you look in the mirror it’s you. Your hair flowing from the breeze coming in from the window. You look out the window to find your friends.

There is Arson, who is about 6 ft. and has short spiky brown hair with white highlights, wearing a grey hoodie and black jeans.

Then you see Xay. His blue hair flying free in the wind. He is wearing a leather jacket and an black t-shirt, as well as blue jeans.

Then you see her. Arrow. She looks as beautiful as ever. With long blonde hair, a pair of Jean shorts, her signature black shirt with a rainbow on the front.

You run down to your friends and greet them. You hug Arrow likes it’s the last time you ever will. As you let go of the hug, you hear a scream. You run towards the scream and see a child.

“What’s going on, are you ok?” Arson asks.

“A man just stole my doll and ran off!” The child cries. She points towards an ally and you all run over that way.

As you reach the ally you see a man with horns and wings eating what looks to be a small dog. As you approach the man he looks at Arrow and screeches and runs off.

You follow the man for what seems to be hours. As you keep running you reach a field. Where the man stops and slowly turns. As he turns Xay pushes you out of the was as a ray of light comes flying through air.

Chapter 2

You look down, you see him on the floor, he’s bleeding out. You don’t know what to do. Your oldest friend Xay has now been killed. As you are looking at him, you hear the man scream.

“This is my time, you will die here today!”

Arrow then looks at you, nods, and runs towards the man, with Arson following close behind. As they run, Arrow gets thrown back by a wave of water. She is thrown up into the air. As she is crashing to the ground she called your name.

You run to her as fast as you can, but you don’t get there before she smashes onto the ground, creating a big dent in the ground. By the time you get there she is almost unconscious.

“Phoenix, look at me.” Arrow practicality whispers.

As you look down she grabs you face and pulls you into a kiss. You feel butterflies in your stomach. But they soon go away as she pulls away.

“This is the end for me, but don’t worry, I’ll see you in the next life time. I love you Phoenix.” And as she says this she falls limp.

As you stand up to face the man, you start crying, and with tears running down your face you run over towards the man, but that’s when you hear it.

“ Phoenix run!!” Arson screams. You look over to see the ground rise up and form a spear and stab arson through the back. Their guts spill on the ground.

You continue to look around to see Xay and Arrow in the ground, both bleeding out. You get hit with a blast, and as you’re flying in the air you hear “Game Over!”.

You can’t help but think of your past with your friends. How when you first meet them you were all six years old. You remember that when you turned twelve you developed a crush on Arrow.

You remember how just yesterday you celebrated you sixteenth birthday. But does this even matter. You’re not sure what’s going to happen next.

But you’re not scared. You’re ready for the next step in life.

As you pan back to the world, you hit the ground. You feel the weight that was on your shoulders fall away.

You think one last thought, and all you see is everyone’s faces. The smiles you grew to love.

And just like that it all fades to black, with the line “Game over!” going through your head one last time.
