A/N By the way, to accompany this chapter, I reccomend listening to the song, Stitches by Shawn Mendes. Ok, bye!

Dear Dante...

I'm terribly sorry I had to leave, I just can't stay. There's no point. I recently found out Laurnece doesn't love me, he loves Aphmau. And without Garroth, there's nothing holding me back anymore. I'm going to miss you the most, Dante. You were like a little brother to me. That is, until all the stuff happened, and you became like a bigger brother to me. Tell Aphmau and Laurence I won't be gone long, I just need time to cool off. I don't know how long, but it's gonna be a while. Hopefully, I can use my magicks and find Garroth.

See you soon,

Melanie

That was the letter I wrote to Dante quickly before leaving Phoenix Drop. Ending the letter, I put it on the table with the name Dante on it. Then, hearing noises upstairs, I ran out, fleeing the settlement.

I passed the wall quickly, so Kyle nor Alexis saw me. I ran throughout the jungle infested Phoenix Drop, wiping tears from my eyes. As I used my magicks to make some of the vines and overgrown grass grow smaller, I started to remember a song I once heard a merchant sing back in O'kasis that seemed to suit my situation a lot.

I thought that I'd been hurt before

But no ones ever left me quite this sore.

Laurence's words stung my heart as I kept running, farther and farther away.

"I never loved you."

"You were just a pawn to my plan..."

The words started hurting soon, and I kept referencing back to the song.

Your words cut deeper then a knife,

Now I need someone to breathe me back to life

The last line struck me like gold. I needed Garroth. He would make me feel better. He was my twin, after all. But how would I get to him? 

I kept remembering how much I loved Laurence, and how we were lovers. I loved him with all my heart, and he just struck it down. I didn't think I would be able to make it without him as my motive, but I needed a new motive.

Got a feeling that I'm going under,

But I know that I'll make it out alive

If I quit calling you my lover

And move on...

I stopped running so I could catch my breath, resting my hand against a tree. I gasped as pain rushed through it, and I quickly pulled my hand back, examining it. A loose branch had cut it, and now it was bleeding. I wanted to cry again, and I did. I let it out as I started running again.

You watch me bleed until I can't breathe,

I'm shaking, falling onto my knees,

And now that I'm without your kisses,

I'll be needing stitches

I tripped over an uprooted tree branch, and my knees were sore. I ignored it, and kept running away.

Trippin over myself, I'm aching

Begging you to come help, and now that

I'm without your kisses, I'll be needing stitches

I stopped running when I got to the old town gates, resting myself against it. I played with my magicks quietly sobbing to myself. I needed Laurence out of my head, or I would never be able to find Garroth or see him again.

Needle and a thread gotta get you outta my head,

Needle and a thread, gonna wind up dead.

I took a deep breath, knowing I wouldn't be able to do this on my own. Then, I remembered my magicks teacher.

A/N Yay! Amber's coming back! Waaaah! Laurence lied to us. I'm posting a video with Sam that's a Q&A, so you must leave your questions and tame dares on the comments below. So, yeah, the video will be posted tomorrow in this book and make sure to be on the look out for that. Bye!
