The Ultimate Sacrifice - Noah dies...

The door creaked open, and Lily, Ava, and Noah stepped cautiously forward, but they immediately recoiled at the sight before them.

Lily screamed, "What the hell, nooo!"

Ava's voice broke, "No, Ethan... not him too."

Ava collapsed into Noah's arms, sobbing uncontrollably. "Why, Noah? Why are all of them dying?"

Noah patted Ava's back, his own voice caught in his throat. He couldn't find the words to console her. Meanwhile, Lily stood there, tears streaming down her face as she wished Jeremy were there to comfort her too.

Noticing Lily's distress, Noah pulled her into the hug as well. Both Lily and Ava cried in Noah's arms. Despite being on the verge of breaking down himself, Noah fought back his tears. He had to stay strong for them.

...

Suddenly, they heard noises coming from the living room. Noah led the way and found cards on the table. He picked one up, and his heart sank.

"Noah, what does it say?" Ava asked, trembling.

Noah read the card aloud, "Dare: Kill Ava."

The room fell silent. A gun lay next to the card. All three stared at it in disbelief.

"Noah...?" Ava's voice quivered.

Noah snapped. "LISTEN, YOU MOTHERFUCKER! YOU BLOODY BASTARD! YOU SON OF A BITCH! YOU BIG PILE OF SHIT! YOU JEALOUS SPIRIT! I AM NEVER GOING TO KILL MY LOVED ONES. SO TAKE YOUR SHITTY CARDS AND GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!"

"Calm down, Noah," Lily urged. "We need to think of a way. If you don't do the dare—"

The unknown female voice of the spirit interrupted, "The dare does you. You have exactly two minutes."

They looked at each other helplessly. Noah had two choices: either kill Ava or let the spirit do it. He chose the only option he could live with.

"Lily," Noah said, his voice breaking.

"Yes, Noah?" Lily responded, fear evident in her eyes.

"Gulp Take Ava out of here. Now."

"What?!"

"Just do as I say. I don't have enough time."

"Noah, what do you mean?" Ava demanded.

"Listen, if I don't kill you, the spirit will. You will die anyway. Just go with Lily," Noah insisted.

"What are you planning to do?" Ava asked, panic rising in her voice.

"I'm going to kill myself."

"W-what?!" Ava and Lily exclaimed together.

"Are you serious?" Lily asked, incredulous.

"LOOK, IF I KILL MYSELF, I WON'T HAVE TO DO THE DARE ANYMORE, AND YOU WILL SURVIVE. SO JUST GET OUT OF HERE NOW. I'M RUNNING OUT OF TIME. I DON'T WANT YOU TO SEE ME DIE," Noah shouted, tears streaming down his face.

"FUCK YOU, NOAH! I'M NEVER LEAVING YOU. I WOULD RATHER DIE THAN LETTING YOU DIE," Ava screamed.

.....

Oh my...such words before death....

What if satan punish you more for it?

At least use some good words...

Hahhhhh....

Well it's their choice i guess...

Let's continue guys...

.....

"Lily, please take her away," Noah pleaded.

Lily nodded reluctantly and started dragging Ava away, but Ava broke free and ran back, snatching the gun from Noah.

"What the hell, Ava? Leave it!" Noah shouted.

"NO! NEVER!" Ava yelled.

They struggled for the gun while Lily watched, helpless.

Fed up, Noah mustered all his strength and pushed Ava harshly to the floor.

"AHHH!" Ava cried out as she fell.

Lily ran to her, "Ava, are you okay?!"

.

.

.

Only ten seconds remained. Noah aimed the gun at his head and smiled at Ava one last time. Tears fell freely down his cheeks. This was their final moment together.

"My dear Ava, I hope you and Lily survive till the end. Just know... I LOVE YOU SO MUCH," Noah said, his voice breaking.

"No, Noah! Listen, please, don't do this—" Ava begged.

BANG!

"NOOOOO, NOAH!" Ava screamed.

Lily covered her mouth in horror. "Oh my god," she whispered.

Noah's body slumped to the floor, the gun falling from his lifeless hand.

The room was filled with the echo of Ava's cries, a haunting reminder of the ultimate sacrifice Noah had made for their survival.
