Ava and Rose ran down the streets,pass the people, running from him. They knew they couldn't stop, he'd be  after them. They ran across alley ways and over fences. Ava's black laced up dress was ripped, her boots were filthy and she had fresh cuts from the fences. The two girls took cover behind a fence, resting their now aching limbs. Ava tore a piece of her dress and wrapped Rosabella's arm cuts. It stopped the blood. they heard running and struggling,panting and more footsteps. Ava looked through the cracks to see and she saw a guy surrounded. She stood up and jumped over, standing beside the stranger. Now she had a better look, he had short brown hair and green eyes. He was panting and obviously hurt. 

"Hey! Whats your problem? He's hurt probably from you, Why don't you leave him alone!" She growled and stood protectively in front of him. The leader,as Ava presumed, stepped forward. "Oh doll, go back to playing dress up and let the big boys take care of this huh?" He purred. She scoffed and threw a punch, hitting him square on the nose. "SON OF A----GAH! GET THAT BRAT!!" He screeched holding his nose. Ava shook her fist and kicked the next one, they surrounded her and got a few punches in, but she had size to her advantage, She went under one of the guys and judo flipped him, as for his partner she kicked his feet making him fall. Two guys grabbed her by the arms and pinned her but the guy from earlier (He was the one being chased) Punched one of them in the face. Ava took his wrist and they climbed the fence while the other men were regaining strength. Rose,Ava , and this stranger ran behind the building. There was a ladder hanging from one of the balconies.  Ava jumped a few times but failed miserably. Then the boy lifted her up and she grabbed it. He let go and Ava and the ladder fell. she sighed in relief and climbed up. She helped Rose and the boy up. "T-T-Thanks back there....i really appreciate it.."  he thanked. Ava nodded. "Why were you running in the first place? And my name is Ava." she smiled gently. He smiled back. "I'm Jason. I was walking home from school and they got mad cause i refused to do their homework....again." he sighed. Ava sighed and looked at Rose. She was really upset about Artemis.. 

i mean after  Zack killed Ambrose she was all she had. Artemis was her everything; and now she was gone......

After the group caught their breath, they decided to go. They didn't know where but they had to get away. Jason helped the girls down and carried Rose because she was hurt bad. beneath the clothes were scars with untold stories, bruises with horrid memories, and blood of the ones she loved. She was exhausted. She was scarred. the countless days of torture, the screams of different girls he took. She remembered them all.

Alex, Tiffany, Miranda, Jessie, Jessica, all of them. they became puppets. LITERALLY.

She soon fell asleep in Jason's arms. Ava and Jason walked and talked forgetting the pain, it was the here and now. She finally met someone like her, she finally felt as if she had someone to trust and pour her heart into. As they walked a weird feeling tingled the back of Jason's mind, the hairs on their necks stood up and a twisted laugh bounced off the walls and the cool Autumn night carried it. Ava froze and Jason looked around. The puppet master whipped wire ropes around their arms  and pulled back causing the two to break apart.

the last thing they remember is it all going black, darkness consuming their bodies and engulfing them.
