i woke up to a terrible pain in my left shoulder. what had happened was a huge blur. I remember Landon with a sword, Paola with a gun to jake's head, and then me with 2 swords. Right then, it hit me. A rock just hit me in the leg. I looked up to see who through the rock and to my surprise, its hanna with some girl who has glasses on.

"Ash, this is Claudia. Claudia, this is Ash." Hanna says.

"Nice to meet you, Ash." Claudia says to me. I greeted her back and tried to sit up.

A sharp pain was in my shoulder and i held my breath and dug my finger nails into my palms to keep myself from yelling in pain. I looked at my shoulder and saw that it was bandaged up really well. I looked at hanna and Claudia for some kind of explanation.

"You were shot in the arm by Paola just before she was eaten by a hoard of zombies and you were unconscious for about a week." Hanna says, cautiously.

"I was unconscious for a week!" I exclaimed.

"I patched you up." Claudia said. "I also noticed that you were bitten in the arm and neck, and that you had two swords with some kind of ruby in the hilts."

I looked to my right and saw my jacket, guns, and the swords Claudia just mentioned. I saw the rubies and I heard the same voice i heard in those terrifying dreams. I looked at the girls and got up from the bed. I grabbed the weapons and the jacket, putting my jacket on, and walks out of the room.

Paola was dead. I had two swords with strange rubies that look like they were made with pure fire. Landon and Claudia both know that I'm immune to the zombie virus. What could get worse?

"You can't get away from me, Ash Fireheart. You've never been able to get away." Some voice said from the swords. "You do remember what happened, right? How you were killed and reborn into this modern world? You won't get away this time, sweetheart!"

"I don't wish to get away." I said, looking forward as I walked up the stairs to the roof. "Landon told me that I'm the reincarnation of Ash Fireheart."

I got to the roof and placed the swords and guns down. I then sat on the ledge and stared out into the destroyed city. There was fire rising from buildings, screams from down below, gunshots sounding from all around. I focused on the fire, watching the flames rise and lower. I heard someone scream for help from down below and when i looked down there, a ring of fire formed around them, protecting them from zombies.

"So you can usr magic now?" Someone said from behind me. I turned around and saw it was Dylan.

"How could I use magic? I'm normal like everyone else, except for the fact that I'm immune to the zombie virus." I said, facing him.

"Ok then." Was all he said before he left the roof via the stairs.

I looked back over to the view of the destroyed city and felt like a presence behind me and when i turned around and I saw Landon standing there all casual like, he had his badass black sword out though. I figured something was wrong and picked my swords and placed them in the sword sheaths--I had made them on my own--on my back, I also picked up my guns and placed them on the inside of my jacket. He walked up to me and placed his sword to my throat.

"So now you know about who you really are, how cute." He said in a demonic voice. I looked at his eyes and noticed that they weren't his.

"you aren't landon." i stated.

"Smart girl. Smarter than when I first met you, when you had to fight me to help your pathetic dragon!" He said, pushing his sword to my throat harder.

"Dragon?" i asked, gripping his sword blade with my bare hands, i could feel blood dripping from my hands.

"you don't remember? how sweet! the little queen can't remember her past lives. wish your precious dragon was here to see you die, again, but i would love to get to know you better. sadly, i have little time in landon's body. see you soon, Ash." he said as a black smoke bursted through landon's mouth and he fell to the ground.

i knelt beside him, keeping an eye on how his chest rose and fell with each breath. Dylan came running through the door to the stair case and started pulling me away from landon, fear in dylan's eyes. jake came through the door with luckless, hanna, emily, and claudia. jake lifted landon's weak body off the floor and left the roof. hanna, emily, and luckless started cleaning everything up while claudia inspected landon's sword. dylan had wrapped his arms around me and kept me on the floor in the corner of the roof, i stomach did some kind of flip but i ignored it. i had too much stuff on my mind. i felt tears form and stream down my cheeks, i could feel the blood from my hands soak into my jeans where my palms touch.

a few hours later, landon woke up but i was still recovering from that thing  telling me about a dragon. what dragon? what's going on now?
