I ran after Alex, a new spark of hope sparked in me by Daichi. I ran in between trees that suddenly popped up in the clouds.

I ran along the path towards the main road. K saw the headlights of Alex's truck appear in front of me. I needed to go faster.

I made it out of the path only to watch Alex pull onto the main road and down the road. I had a bad feeling. A really bad feeling. I ran after Alex. This and feeling... I don't like it.

I follow the truck. I follow as fast as I could. I was so far behind, but I followed.

Then it happened. The screeching of tires screamed ahead of me. The sound was terrible. Alex! I ran faster. The bad feeling grew worse. It felt like my stomach had dropped and was empty. I didn't like it one bit!

I ran towards Alex truck that landed on its side. I slowed as I searched the wreckage for Alex. There I spotted him, he was laying still on his back.

No... Alex.

I had to help him. I crawled into the little space and pulled Alex out. I winced as the broken glass cut his skin. I picked him up when I heard the sirens.

I couldn't help him. I just couldn't. The humans had to help him. I couldn't help him. I couldn't be there for him! I don't want to leave him!

...But I have to.

I have to leave him for the humans. They will help. I laid him down in the middle of the street. I ran back into the woods, out of sight, as I watched the cars stop.

They ran over to Alex, checked his body, and loaded him into a weird looking truck. They drove away, sirens blaring, lights flashing. It was mess.

How could I have avoided this? Why did this happen? To Alex? To Daichi? To Jessie? It's all because of me. If I wasn't here everything would be fine.

I needed to stay away from them. I needed to run away. I needed a new home. I needed to be alone. I only bring misfortune. Why? Because I am a monster.
