At first, everyone froze. But it was Anti who broke the silence.

"Okay.." He mutters, bending down to check Wade 's pulse, his eyes widening. "Get the rest of the stuff off of him! He's still alive!" That's when everyone sprang into action.

I set the backpack with the medical supplies down on the ground, grabbing a piece of what looks like another section of the wall off of his legs. Wade stirs a little bit, but doesn't open his eyes. A small part of me panics as I see a metal arrow sticking straight through his chest. Terror shivers down my spine.

"A-anti!" I said quietly, my voice trembling. Anti, who was busy removing a chunk of glass off of the top of Wade's arm, looks up.

"Dark? What's wrong?"

"M-metal arrow!" I whimper, confused as to why I was acting the way I was. I'm a demon for Pete's sake! Nothing can kill me. Anti frowns, setting the glass down away from Wade as Jack grabs a hold of the long rod of the arrow. But something deep down inside of me screamed at me not to pull the arrow out of him.

"Think before you pull the arrow out," Alexa says in a very low tone, surprising us all.

"What do you mean?! He is going to die if we don't pull this thing out of him!" Jack screams at her, tugging on the rod a little bit. Wade's eyes flutter as Jack tugs.

"There's nothing you can do for him. He's already dead." Everyone's head turns towards her slowly as if we were processing the words that were coming out of her mouth. On the ground, Wade moans in pain. Anti narrows his eyes.

"Do you know something that we don't?" I watch as tears well up in Alexa's eyes.

"That's how my mom died," she says quickly as a tear runs down her small face. "She had the same arrow shot into her body. I-I tried to save h-her by g-getting the medical supplies and p-p-pulling out the arrow..." I felt sorrow for her as I walk over and put an arm around her to comfort her. However, the others weren't as consoling as I was being.

"Okay, so what does that have to do with us pulling out the rod?!" Felix snaps. Alexa buries her small face into my side and I rub her back encouragingly.

"T-there's something o-o-on the tips of t-those arrows that o-once they're pulled from the body, y-your friend is no longer your friend.."

"What?" Vinny asks in confusion as Ken stomps over and grabs the rod of the arrow.

"That's blasphemy!" He growl, tugging at the arrow, Jack helping him.

"Wait don't!" Alexa screams. "I'm telling you-" but it was too late. By the time they had got the arrow loose and out, Wade 's body moves upwards fast. Both Jack and Ken gasp as Wade 's hands grabbed both of them by their necks.

"Hello, friends." The voice that was talking was deep and very sinister, not Wade's voice at all. Alexa whimpers as I pull her behind me, shielding her. Vinny gasps while I stare in horror as he opens his eyes. They were jet black. There was no color to them at all. "How about we play a game? But this time I'm the predator and you're my prey."
