Austins pov
I sigh of relief knowing no one will die but then a thought comes to mind. The assassin. The clown, nothing has changed we're all gonna die. Why am I not giving up? Why am I still here? I feel someone grasping my hand Probably Charlie

"This is over, right?"

I dont want to tell him. He'll find out, eventually.

"not sure charlie we just gotta keep going."

"right."

He grasps my hand tighter

"Y'know Austin it-"

I feel some sort of liquid on my shoe seeping into my foot. I have a lantern wow, im retarted I turn it on and realise...

"Fuck."

Its blood.

I hear Charlie gasp out of horror my first thought. Run. But thats suspisious I take a step back and I bump into someone I swing my lantern and accidentatly hit her head with it.

"Ow, wait. Your dead."

I stare at her shocked

"No, your dead."

She plays with her hair and looks down at her hands..., then slaps me in the face

"OW what the f**k?*

"OH MY GOD I'M ALIVE!"

She jumps and walks away... Prassidhi's back wow, seems more unrealistic than this game itself. Shes probably looking for Ameythst.
I look back at the floor, the trail of cold red blood I walk towards it and see a cold body glancing towards me. I jump from fear and let out a short gasp. Charlie grabs my shoulder to asure me that, maybe it will end soon. The feeling of giving up comes back to me. I remember Jojo, the one who started this whole despair but why give up if I have made it to the final few. Why give up if I have people waiting at home for me for weeks, why give up when I can have a future. Get a job, start a family, watch the sunset on my last days.

I take his journal slightly soaking wet with liquid. The ink is running as much as mascara, mascara? why mascara? You get what I mean
