Third Person Point of View:

Tristan was shocked to see Glory's new behaviour. She wasn't the stupid and innocent girl anymore. Time had changed her.

"What are you staring at?" Glory said; her eyes were showing off her fierce and bold personality to Tristan. Tristan's shocked face turned into a wicked smirk.

"Wow Glory! I never knew you'd be like this. But oh well, you're dead now. You can't do anything about it," he said. Glory was confused. How come Tristan isn't afraid of her? She was dead three years ago but now she's standing in front of him. How come he's cool about it?

"Go away Tristan! You don't deserve to be near my grave at all," Glory said in anger. "Oh yea? What are you going to do about it? Even when you're a ghost, you can't do anything!" he laughs and walks around her grave.

Glory glares at him. She couldn't believe that she had fallen in love with such an arse. She walks towards him and pushes him. "Why are you here anyway? What do you want from me now that I'm dead?" she asked. "Nothing! I just wanted to show 'sympathy' towards you," he shrugged. "After three years?" Glory asks and folds her arms on her chest. He remains silent.

"How can you see me now Tristan? I've been a ghost for three years now. Why do you see me now?" Glory asks. "I don't know," he says.

"What's going on?" someone asks and Glory turns behind to see Stellan.

"Stellan, what are you doing here?" Glory asked. "What? Wait, how did I get here?" he asks himself. "Who is he?" Stellan asks pointing at Tristan. "Oh Glory! What a surprise! You have now hooked up with someone else," Tristan says with a smirk. "Shut up Tristan! Go away from here!" Glory says in anger.

"Glory, how did I get here?" Stellan asks Glory. This is all so confusing for them. What is going on?

"Hello! I'm Tristan!" he introduces himself to Stellan like nothing ever happened. "Tristan? Is he the one who..." Stellan asks and Glory nods with sadness. "Well you son of a..." Stellan says and punches Tristan on his face.

"You asked for it man," Tristan says and punches Stellan on his mouth. "What are you doing?! Stop it!" Glory says and stands in front of Stellan. "He was the one who betrayed you! He deserves a few punches," Stellan says. "This doesn't change anything! I'm still dead!" Glory says.

"Oh! Now you have a girl protecting to you. I mean a 'dead' girl protecting you," Tristan says trying to make Stellan get into a fight. Stellan gets angry and moves Glory aside and punches Tristan again. "Stop it! Don't do this!" Glory says and tries to move from her spot but surprisingly, she couldn't move.

Stellan punches Tristan on the mouth and it starts bleeding. Tristan then pushes Stellan and he trips and falls, his head hitting a rock. "NO!" Glory screams and she tries to move from her place. "Stellan, are you ok? Say something," she says from her spot. Tristan bends down and checks Stellan's pulse.

"He's dead," Tristan says calmly and Glory gasps in horror. "You monster!" she says and manages to move from where she was standing. She runs towards Stellan's dead body and cries. "Tristan...how could you?" she says and looks towards him but he wasn't there. Instead, there was a strange figure wearing all black clothes, black feathery wings emerging from his back and it was holding a long wooden stick.

Glory hugged Stellan's body really tight because she was so terrified of the thing standing in front of her. The strange figure then turns around and disappears.

"Glory?" someone calls her and she looks behind her. Stellan was standing right behind her but his body was engulfed by her hands.

"Stellan," she runs to him giving me a tight hug. "What is going on, Glory?" he asks her but then he sees his dead body lying some distance away. "It killed you Stellan! It wasn't Tristan, it was something else!" Glory says and hugs him tightly.

"Does that mean..." Stellan says and Glory nods.

Stellan was dead. Now he was like Glory too – a ghost.

Author's Note:

Readers: WTF happened to the story?

I know it's a confusing chapter. Let me clear some doubts.

1. The guy who killed Stellan wasn't Tristan, it was 'Death'

2. The guy with the feathery wings and all which Glory saw was 'Death' or 'The Grim Reaper' or 'Angel of Death'.

3. Glory couldn't move because 'The Grim Reaper (or whatever you wanna call it)' had put a spell on her. It wanted to finish Stellan but Glory was getting in the way.

4. Stellan and Glory can NOW be together thanks to 'Death'

OK, I'm such an awkward nerd person. I am cringing because I'm so weird.

This was the second last chapter! Oh No! Meh, who cares...no one read my story anyway.
