Jeffory's POV
"DAD?!" I yell, looking everywhere in the rough ocean. "...Over here son." Shad says, startling me as he comes up above the water. "Wait... Where's The Demon Warlock?" I ask worriedly. "He-He got out, and he's swimming towards the hurricane." My dad says, pointing to a small figure swimming quickly. "DANGIT!" I yell, slamming my fists into the water. "Should we follow him?" I ask my dad, swimming over the little bumps that were supposed to be waves. "Yes... But I'm not gonna make it... My times up here." My dad says, grabbing his chest. "No! You were supposed to help me finish him!!" I protest at him, grabbing his arm. "I've already helped you enough son... Goodbye." Shad says, his body disappearing. "Wait!! No!!" I yell, putting my hand where his body first was. I sigh, a tear flowing down my cheek. "Time to end this once and for all." I mumble, swimming towards the massive hurricane.

Katelyn's POV
"One... Two... Three... Four... Five... Six... Seven... Eight... Nine... Ten!! Ready or not here I come." I yell, uncovering my eyes with my hands. I look around the first grade playground, leaves falling off the trees. I look inside the tube slide, and I can see Jeffory failing to climb it. I giggle, and then yell "Found ya Jeffory!" He turns around, and slides down, making me fall over, and he lands on top of me. Both of our faces turn bright red, and he gives me a nervous smile. "S-Sorry Kate." He manages to say as he stands up, and helps me get up as well. "I-It's fine.." I mumble, twiddling with my fingers. He looks at me questioningly, and he kisses me on the cheek, causing my face to turn as red as can be. Jeffory chuckles, causing me to break out of my trance. "C'mon slow poke!" He says, grabbing my hand as we keep searching for more people. "Found ya!" I say, accidentally knocking Aphmau out of the tree. She growls, and she stands back up, brushing the leaves off of her. "I found Steven!!" Jeffory shouts, both him and Steven coming out of the bushes. I jump out of the small tree I'm in, barely missing Aphmau's arm while jumping down. "I found Crazy and Mason!!" Steven shouts, Mason and Crazy both laughing their heads off. "Where's Joslyn?" Jeffory asks nervously, looking around the entire playground. We all hear a scream, and then the next thing you know, everything goes black.

(End Of Flashback)

I wake up coughing up salt water, my clothes soaking wet, and my back covered in sand. I sit up, seeing blurry figures walking away. I close my eyes, and then open them, my vision ten times better. I check my pockets, hoping for the book to be in there, but it's gone. "No, it can't be gone... It's the only thing I have left to remember Jeffory when he was... More caring." I mumble, standing up while running towards the group of people. "Help!!" I yell, sprinting towards them in hope. They all turn around, their eyes bloodshot. Their bodies become more recognizable, and I notice that it's my group. "Guys?!" I ask out of breath, holding onto my knees. "KATELYN?!?" Mason yells, hugging me. I give them confused looks, wondering why they're so surprised. "You're... Alive." Justin says, his fur wet, and his eyes black. Mason releases the hug, Crazy, Joslyn, Steven, and even Dalton smiling at me. "Since you're alive... I guess you should take this back." Justin says, handing me my book which makes me sigh in relief. "Thanks." I mumble, taking the book from his hand while flipping through the pages- wait, where's my note?. "Um... Did you- uh read or still have the note?" I ask shyly as Mason hands my the wet and cold piece of paper. I smile at him, taking it, and putting it back into my book. I shut it, my eyes filling with tears, because Jeffory hates me. "Katelyn?.." Joslyn asks, giving me a questioned look. "Wait... Where's Jeffory?" Crazy asks, looking out into the rough ocean. The tears fall onto my cheeks, and I reply "He... Doesn't want to see me again." More tears fall onto my cheeks, and I just sit in the sand while Mason hugs me. "I'm sorry." Mason says, my tears getting his shirt more wet then it already was. "It's fine... But we should get this war over with." I say, leaning my head on his chest. Mason chuckles, and everyone else nods in agreement. "When I find Jeffory... Oh, he's gonna get his butt kicked." Joslyn says, picking up her sword. Mason kisses the top of my head, and I smile up at him. "We're always here for you." He says, grinning back at me.

Aphmau's POV
"HELP!!" I yell, slowly sinking down into the ocean. I'm standing in the plane, the water up to my neck, and Travis right next to me. "Aphmau... We're gonna be alright." Travis says as he grabs my hand. "But- I can't swim!" I protest at him, as his eyes go wide. "This is gonna be difficult then.." He mumbles, pulling me closer to him. "Okay...." He mumbles, picking me up bridal style as more water quickly enters the plane. "Okay, on the count of three, we're gonna swim to the surface, got it?" Travis asks, while I nod my head. "One... Two... Three!" Travis yells, jumping into the ocean as he successfully swims to the surface. "YOU DID IT!!" I yell, hugging onto his neck as he chuckles. "We need to go over there!" I inform him, pointing to the big stone house. Wait a second, why isn't it sinking? Travis starts swimming towards it, and we hear water splashing right behind us. I turn my head, and see Jeffory swimming straight towards us, his eyes bloodshot. "Jeffory?!" I ask, Travis giving me a questioned look. Travis turns around, and Jeffory looks at us while smiling. "Hey guys." He says, swimming right next to us. "Hey Jeffory- wait... WHERE'S KATELYN?!" I yell at him, putting my hands in my hair. "Ooh...-wait, Katelyn." Jeffory says, looking downwards. "Wait- don't tell me, is she.. D-dead?" I ask, my eyes starting to fill with tears. "No! She's not dead... I accidentally said I hated her, and I never wanted to see her again." Jeffory says guiltily as he gulps. "WHAT?!" Travis yells at him, making me get startled in surprise. "I told you to treat her well... No matter what she did." Travis says through gritted teeth. "She... Killed my Father, and I was just in a state of anger." Jeffory says, tears filling his eyes. "Well... Now's your chance to forgive her." Travis says, the group swimming right behind Jeffory. Jeffory turns around, and he starts swimming towards Katelyn. He grabs her arm before she starts swimming away, and he says three words that make Katelyn kiss him. "I love you."

Jeffory: *sighs* I'm an idiot. But... Everything's better. Joslyn, can you please slap me?.
