Maddis pov
I walked into the bathroom, leaving Erika listening to the Phoenix.

I washed my blood drenched hands. What sickens me is that it was Erikas blood. That they did this to her. She doesnt deserve any of this. Shes already lost her family.

I changed into my black Fall Out Boy shirt and blue jeans. I then fixed my eyeliner since it looked pretty shitty.

I heard Erika begin to cough. I didnt think much of it until I heard her say my name. It was very quiet, but it sounded panicked.

I stepped out and looked at Erika. Blood was pouring out of her mouth and she looked very weak.

I ran to her, knocking a few clothes off the table.

Her eyes were closed now. The blood was gushing from her mouth.

I heard the door close behind us. My head twisted around to see Dexter.

"Help her," I mouthed to him through tears.

He glanced over to her. A look of realization crossed his face.

"I can't."

"Why?! Why can't you help her?!" I snapped

"They gave her too much. It's already working. She has minutes."

"Too much of what?!"

"The syrum. When they are in the cellar, they give them a syrum to make them sleep for the days that they're in there. The syrum can kill if too much is given. Too much has been given."

"There has to be a way!"

"There isn't!"

"There's always a way," I muttered, placing my hands on her shoulders.

"Don't even think about it, Maddi!" Dexter snapped.

He knew. He knew I was going to heal her. He knew the costs.

"Oh, shut up.... DAD!" I yelled back, "I have to do this. I have to save her. They've had their fun with me. At least she'll have a chance at escaping. I've been trying to for years."

"Maddi-"

"Shut up!"

I focused. Hard. Until finally I felt the pain. For a split second, it was unbearable, but soon it was gone. Nothing but blackness

----a/n----

I'm sad cuz my friend hates my religion and she says to stop listening to fob, stop wearing black, stop wearing my eyeliner, put down the earbuds and shit. She thinks they're changing my religion so she hates me rn. P.s. FALL OUT BOY SAVED MY LIFE 7 TIMES.

Yeah so I'm kinda pissed and upset. I could really use someone to talk to. Either message me on here, Direct message me on Instagram @purple_pete_is_perf mor kik me @foblvr.

Anyway, I love you my carcrashovercastyoungbloods!!!
