She walked happily on her way home from school with a smile at everyone she saw in her way, suddenly she heard a twig snap right behind her, she turned and there was no one there she continued walking but she knew she had a feeling that something bad was going to happen and it just popped up every time she tried to ignore it, this time she heard the sound of footsteps other than her's on the erba and every time she turned there was no one there, her fear was increasing every time she turned around and back again, she couldn't take it anymore she broke into a run as fast she could and the person o people behind her followed as fast as her, she reached Mapel creek and stopped there, her hand clenched to her chest and panting for breath until she felt someone push her to the ground, she felt a stabbing pain in her head and she felt the blood gushing out of the wound, before everything went blurry she focused on the face of the girl who was laying on superiore, in alto of her, she saw that the girl had bright green eyes and pale blonde hair, "S-S-Susie?" she asked, Susie's expression changed her eyes widend, "Why are te doing this to me?" half whispered Lily, "You know everything and I can't have that, so sadly te have to die so my secret can die with you!...Good Bye Lily Rest in Peace" detto Susie her tone and expression as evil as the devil's and she stabbed Lily right in the chest, Lily screamed as the coltello periced her heart, and she began to feel the blood gush out of her chest as fast as the blood gushing out of her head, Susie noticed that Lily still had a little life in her she gave her another stab in the stomach and tossed the coltello to her acommplice Iris, "Hide it in the backpack and toss it the creek then help me drag the brat's body in" was the last thing Lily heard Susie say when she was alive the rest she saw with her own ghostly eyes, Iris tossed the bag into the creek and darted to help her friend drag the body, once she saw the body up close she nearly retched out everything she ate and she was surprised that Susie the pregnant one wasn't even giving a damn about how disgusting this is, Iris couldn't take it anymore just half way to the creek Iris let go of the body and darted back with a scream, "Iris shut up!!" detto Susie, Iris screamed again this time louder to make sure someone could find them, both Iris and Susie heard running footsteps, "Look what te did!!" shrieked Susie letting go of Lily's legs so that they dropped clumsily to the ground, Iris simply ran and hid in the bushes leaving Susie with the body of her sister, Susie kept looking at her sister's body convincing herself that she did the right thing to protect her secret but she couldn't no matter how hard she tried and then she sat there crying her guilt consuming her bit da bit as she cried the footsteps stopped and she looked up and saw two figures in the distance one of them waving at her, she rose slowly to her feet and waved back and watched as the two figures approached, "Abbie!!" she heard her mother's voice in her head, "Abbie darling" she heard and her eyes flew open and they met her mother's which were the same shade of hazel as Noah's, "Mom" she detto sitting up and scratching her head, "Get up te have to get dressed now if te don't want to be late for school" detto Mary getting to her feet and crossing the room, instead of replying with a simple 'Okay' she said, "Now I know who murdered Lily", "What?!" asked Mary confused, "it was her own sister Susie" Abbie continued to her mother, "I'm sorry honey what?" asked Mary più confused than before, "Lily Gellar was murdered da Her Own Sister Susie!" detto Abbie getting out of letto and darting to her closet, "Oh my god!" detto Mary her eyes filled with tears, "How could Susie Gellar do that to her own sister?!" she continued knowing that this was true because of her daughter's abilities, and she left the room tears spilling down her face.

Noah's jeep stopped in front of Leo's house and he honked the horn, Leo came out of the house after a few moments crossed the lawn silently and instead of opening the door to unisciti Abbie in the back he opened the front door and sat da Noah's side, "Hey Noah" he said, "Oh yeah..and Abbie" he continued in a flat tone, "Happy birthday Leo" detto Noah, "thanks man" detto Leo with a smile, "I got te a present" Noah continued as they drove away from Leo's house, "Really?" detto Leo, "Yeah look in the guanto compartment in front of you", Abbie was stunned not only she forgot his birthday but she forgot to buy him a present too, she watched as Leo opened the compartment and grabbed the small present out of it, And unwrapped it only to find out it was his preferito movie collection, "No way!" detto Leo examining the box which held the four Scream disks, "Noah this is the best gift ever thanks man" detto Leo, "Nah it's nothing, te should see what Abbie got you" detto Noah, Abbie's eyes widend, "But I didn't-" began Abbie but Noah cut her off, "Yes te did now hop to the tronco and you'll find it there", "Okay" detto Abbie and she hopped into the tronco to find a flat rectangular shaped present there, she grabbed it and hopped back to her seat, "Here te go Happy seventeenth birthday" she detto handing him his gift, he reached to grab it from Abbie's hand, but when he touched the present he also touched Abbie's hand, Abbie blushed, Leo grinned as he took the present from Abbie, "Abbie te told me yesterday that Leo has to open it when he's alone right?" detto Naoh noticing that Leo was about to open it, "Yeah I did so don't open it now" detto Abbie struggling to keep her tone even, "Okay I won't, and Thanks" he detto smiling, Abbie nervously smiled back, Noah pulled over "Here we are" he said, "Thanks" detto both Abbie and Leo, and they both got out of the car, "So te wanna walk to class together?" Abbie asked Leo who was busy examining the box he thought he got from Abbie, "Yeah maybe later, see te Abbie" he replied now stuffing both presents into his bag, and he walked away without another word, Abbie stood there for a moment watching him disappear deeper in the see of students and then she started walking alone to class wondering what was the present Leo thought he got from her, although Abbie was sure that the present was a picture frame she couldn't help but wonder what was the picture in it.

The End
I will not be under your tyranny
Your cruel and oppressive force
Yes, maybe te should be my leader
But that doesn't mean I should follow te all the time
Do te know he's got te bound
Under ropes and chains of cruelty
Well, I don't wanna be a follower
If it means I have to be a killer
No, I'm not exactly kind-hearted
But that doesn't mean I have to kill, kill, kill
I don't wanna be just a senseless follower
I have a heart, I have a soul, so I don't follow you
I don't just wanna be a follower
So I don't give a fuck bout what te do, do, do
But I myself will not give in to the tyranny
So you'll watch me leave
No one's gonna stop me
Look, I'm walking out the doors of tyranny
And I'm not gonna be a senseless follower
Ever again in my life.
