Cierra covered her ears when she heard Derek scream again. The tears threatened to fall. "Oh Cierra, I know you care about Derek. Come on, come to me and save your boyfriend," said Mom.

"I will never be with you. I will never change my path. I'd rather sacrifice and not come back until I get to see Derek's body," I said.

"Where is his real body, by the way? His body is safe and he still looks young," Derek looks tired and is sweating a lot. "Where's Daniel?" I asked. "Cierra, help me!" he yelled.

"No," said Cierra as she ran towards the frozen fridge. "How is that possible? How is he in here?" she asked.

"I shoved him in there. Relax, that frozen fridge is huge. I can fit like three people in there," she said. I looked at her, who was in Cole's dad's body.

"Do you think this is fun?" I asked. "You tortured me, hit me, abused me, and made me not see Derek. And now I can't see anyone else who is a boy? You hurt me and Derek when he was a kid. You hit us with a whip."

"How could you do that to an eleven-year-old?" Cierra slid down, sobbing. Her mother came towards her, and Daniel banged on the door and yelled her name. "Cierra, look out!" yelled Daniel. She looked up quickly and moved fast to the other side.

"Where did you get that?" she ran towards Derek, the knife. "He said, 'whisper' on my leg. 'Shit, okay, focus on me, focus on me,' I said. 'Remember when we were only ten, we pretended we were married together,' he said."

Cierra cried and nodded. She kissed him and ripped out the knife from his leg. She grabbed her handy Danny first aid kit. "You bring that everywhere with you?" he asked.

"Yeah, but I'm not sure how to sew you up." "I can help! Let me out. I have been sewing my buddies up for a long time. Come on, let me out!" he yelled. "Hold the pressure, okay? I'll be back," she said and gave him a kiss.

She got up and tried to open the door handle, but it was closed shut. "It won't open," I said. "I tried to see Daniel, but he was so close to being frozen to death."

"No," I said, "Whisper, Daniel was about to fall on the floor. Please don't leave me. Just look at me, listen to my voice," I said. "I'm sorry. I miss Wendy. I always loved her," he said.

He was shivering. "I can't lose you, not another one. I know Derek is still here, but he's in Cole's body. I just want you to stay, please. I beg you," I said with a sob.

He fell down. "Nooooo," she yelled, banging on the door. The door opened, she rushed to his side and hugged him. Derek tried to get up but fell to the ground. He crawled towards her.

"My love, we have to go. He's gone," said Derek. "No, he's not. We need to warm him up," I said. I walked to this red stone and it had heat in them perfect.

"Give him this, you're close to him," I said as I tossed it to him. He dropped it and said, "Ouch, that is hot." "Listen, when we get out of here and I have to help you up, we can help him get warm first," I said.

"What happens if we can't get out?" he said, while I dragged Daniel to the warm stone. "If we can't get out, we are stuck here forever with no food," I said.

"We will get out," he said. He crawled over and sat next to me. I looked down and sniffed. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I couldn't protect you more. I'm sorry from 1984-1987."

"I'm sorry that I put you into this position. I'm sorry," I cried, and he hugged me. "It's okay, really. I love you, and we will get through this," he said.

My mom came back to the cave and had a bomb. She smiled at us. "This is such a cute picture," she said in a man's voice. Derek put his body over mine and covered me up, as I did the same to Daniel.

"Say goodbye to your new body," she said. The cave exploded, and Derek covered us as I held Daniel. "Cierra," said Daniel. He pushed her off of him.

He looked at her, as Derek, who is in Cole's body. "Cole?" Daniel said as he tried to shake him awake, but he couldn't.

He looked at Cirrea, who is in Wendy's body. "No," he tried to wake her, but it was no use; they were both in a coma.

Tony and Nick saw Cole's dad. They ran after him and arrested him. "Get off of me," he said. "Where are Daniel, Cole, and Wendy?" they asked.

"In the cave. They might be dead right about now," he said, laughing crazily. They dragged him to the police car. Tom called for police backup to watch him.

When the backup arrived, they started looking for them. They dug in the cave to make room. "Daniel?" they yelled. He looked up and saw his buddies.

"Guys, help! It's Cole and Wendy," he yelled. Cole and Wendy both ran towards them and tried to shake them.

"I already tried that, but they're not waking up," he said. "They protected me. Wendy did. She protected me, and it's all my fault," he sobbed.

"It's not your fault," she said, opening her eyes slowly. "Where's Derek?" I asked. "Wait, Derek who?" asked Tony. "Should I tell him?" asked Daniel.

"We must do it since they know our secrets," I said. "Wendy is not Wendy," said Daniel. "Wait, what? Has that explosion really hit your head hard?" Nick asked.

"No, listen guys. Cole is not Cole and Wendy is not Wendy," said Daniel. They gave Daniel a concerned look. "I'm not joking. This is Cierra and that is Derek," he said.

"He's right. I'm Cierra and I'm going to find Derek," she paused and saw Derek not moving at all. "No," she said, running towards him. "No, he can't... he can't be," she cried.

"I'm so sorry, Cierra," he said. "This time, he's dead," he said, walking away with shame. The trucks lifted the big rock and she grabbed him and dragged him out of the cave.

"He covered me up so I won't be too injured from the explosion. He sacrificed too much for me," I said. Daniel knelt down and helped Tony to put him in the coffin.

"Oh, darling," said Mama, running towards me. I cried in her arms.
