Revenge After Death

"Don't be scared. We'll get out of here together," I softly coaxed Rachel.

"Let's go." Zion carried Rachel and stumbled forward.

"Follow me..."

I took the lead and slowly inched my way forward. I told Zion to stay close.

"Quinn? Are you okay..." Joel said as he checked on Quinn.

"She's hurt!" Eason said, panicking. "She got stabbed in her abdomen."

After briefly checking on Quinn in the dark, Eason got Joel to piggyback Quinn, who was on the verge of dying.

"Taylor, there's also Taylor."

Taylor was still at the same place.

They found their way to Taylor, picked up the stretcher, and slowly made their way ahead.

"Save me..."

Suddenly, a soft voice spoke, and a hand grabbed my ankles.

It was Yasmin.

I paused, then said grimly, "Without Michael around... Do you think any of us would still save you unconditionally? All these years, you've been exhausting our saving grace. It's about time for it to end." Yasmin's fingers were trembling, but her will to live allowed her to keep a firm grip on me.

"Did you think... that he sacrificed his life to push me out of the elevator for my sake? You're too naive, Stephany... He did it for Stephanie Carlson! How can a living person win over a dead person? That's the scariest part about Stephanie Carlson!

Enduring her pain, Yasmin continued to shout, "I still have worth. I know Peter's secrets. Michael was worried that you wouldn't be able to uncover the truth, so he sacrificed himself so that I'd live—because I'm the only person who knows the secrets!"

I frowned and kicked Yasmin's hand away.

"I'm not obliged to save you. If you want to live, get up on your own."

Yasmin cried out in despair, but her will to live enabled her to pick herself up. She pressed on her wound and clutched onto Rachel's shirt so that Zion would bring her along.

"Steven..."

We walked toward the knocking sound.

Suddenly, the sound stopped, and we started to hear the sounds of somebody fighting.

I knew somebody else was with us, and they were headed for Steven.

"Steven!" I shouted out in a panic and continued walking toward the sound.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang! Something fell from a high place.

"Steven!"

My breath quickened, and I continued to call out to Steven. I tried to find my way ahead.

Steven wasn't answering, and my heart dropped.

That was how it felt to be worried and afraid. My heart raced...

"I'm here."

Just as I began to feel helpless and afraid, a hand pulled me over and hugged me.

My breath began to stabilize, and I hugged Steven hard.

"I can't... lose you."

That was exactly what I felt at that moment.

I could not bear to lose Steven.

"I'll always be with you. Always..."

I patted him up and down, sighing in relief when I realized he had no major external wounds.

"Everyone, come over. Let's hold hands."

Steven knew we could not stay here any longer, so he told everyone to hold hands.

"Hello? Can you hear me?"

A voice resounded in the vacant building. It was Michael.

"Are you all okay?" Michael asked again.
