Since I was desperate, I has to go back to camp. I had to be quick. I had 2 days left. I don't know what's going on with Dad and the others. I had to end Masoumeh's reign before it starts. I didn't know where this determination came from. It took me a few hours to get there. Once I arrived, the camp was empty. I guess they were on the field or doing their activities. I walked around the camp. Where did they keep the arrows and swords again. I remember Olivia showing me the place. She even joked about it. Just in case we had to kill some monsters. I didn't get it at first. If only my past self could see me now. Wait. I remember it was our last stop. So its near the Wolf Cabin. I ran to the cabin. No one was there. I went to a little house that looked like a shed. Jackpot. I found the weapons. I went over and packed the arrows in 2 quivers. I took a sword just in case. I didn't know how to use it but I'd have to learn on the way. When I was done, I started heading out. "You have a lot of guts coming back", someone said. I jumped up out of fright. I turned around to see who said that. Wonderful.  The last person I wanted to see. She wore that annoying cocky smile. Their green eyes gleamed with hatred. Their hair grew a bit longer. "Didn't think you'd survive this long", said Stephanie still smirking. "Why are you working for the Queen", I said ready to shoot an arrow in between her eyes. She pouted. "You know, it's rude to eavesdrop", she said, stepping forward. I stepped back in instinct. Stephanie sighed. "You know, we could've just made this easy. You could've given yourself in. But you had to choose the hard way", she said crossing her arms. "It's rude to not answer a question. I said, why are you working for the Queen", I repeated the question, gritting my teeth. Stephanie just stood there smiling. Then all of a sudden there was smoking surrounding us. I shot an arrow at her but she wasn't standing there anymore. As the mist grew thicker, an image flickered to life. I saw a man in a dark place. Looked like a cave. He had bruises and he was bleeding from his hands and head. He was whimpering. "I can't. I have to be strong for her", he said. His voice was hoarse but soft. I looked closely. He was chained up. Then his eyes met mine. I choked back a sob. Dad. "I must not give up. She'll be here to save us". Then the image changed. I saw two people who were in a cage. The had wounds that were still healing. The stood close together. One of them, a guy, was trying to kick the cage open. The girl was crouching down. She was sobbing. The tears on the boy's face came streaking down his face. They looked my age. "Liam, just stopped", the girl told him. "We're stuck here". "No, Olivia! We have to try. The world ends in... I don't even know. We can't keep track of time here", Liam shouted. "We shouldn't have left her. We should've brought her. She would've ended this", Olivia said, trying to control her breathing. "She was dead weight. Uncontrollable. I couldn't afford to put her in danger. I- I love her too much to do that", Liam said as he stopped kicking their prison. The mist started to fade away. I thought I was going to cry. But instead, my heart turned to stone. Even harder than diamond. I'm tired of crying about my problems. Time to deal with them head on. Stephanie reappeared. "See how you've made their lives harder. Just give up. You're no 'one woman army'. You're a failure. Now be a dear and come with me", she said sticking our her hand. I slapped her hand away. "I'll rather die than go with you", I grunted as I loaded another arrow. Stephanie frowned. "You must choose your words wisely", she said. Her expression darkened. The mist reappeared again. But this time it was darker. It swirled around Stephanie. "My sister is weak enough to take you on her own. So I'll deal sith you on my own and squeeze the essence out of you", she said. She became one with the mist. Wait! Stephanie was sisters with Masoumeh? I grunted. I didn't even care at that moment. As long as I get to kill her. She became a shadowy giant. Then I remembered the ones that attacked us when I was being mind controlled. Those monsters were sent by her. She threw a punch. Unfortunately she wasn't as gassy as she looked. Her punch felt solid against my gut. Which sent me flying. I hit the ground with such impact, I was surprised that my ribs weren't crushed. I tried standing up by I kept on stumbling.  Stephanie came over  and kicked me in the very same place she punched me. I thought my Insides were bleeding. Think Blaire, think I told myself. That's it. Mist. If only I could some the wind. But I didn't have the energy to use my power. Much less to stand up. Stephanie hovered over me. I couldn't see her face but I was sure she was grinning. I rolled away from her and tried balancing on a tree. "You can't run from me", she said. I'm not running, you dweeb. I closes my eyes. I thought of the wind blowing through my hair. The cold breeze on my face. Then I thought of strong winds that could bend trees and blow away houses. When I opened my house, I saw Stephanie getting blown away molecule by molecule.  She tried coming over to me but the wind was too strong. I focused on the winds. Stephanie shouted out something but I couldn't hear here. Stephanie was finally gone. I heard some campers shouting and running to their cabins. Well it was time for me to go.
