When I came to, there was only Haley, Jules, and Chlor in the room. Haley handed me a glass of some sort of apple juice, but I was surprised by the taste. It tasted like my dad's famous pancakes, he used to make for us, when he still cared about us. I was brought out of the past, when Chloe asked "Cai, what happened? Why did you pass out?". I managed to shake my head before I burst into tears. Then I ran. I ran from the pain. I ran from my sisister. I ran from my past.

When it got dark I called it a night. I climbed up a tree, and fell asleep instantly. But sadly that meant dreams.

I dreamed that this very pretty woman, was chatting with me and another girl, that had then same hair as me. But our eyes were different colors. She had these real pretty grey eyes, whereas I have this disease in my eyes where, they can change color. Then the woman said "Caitlyn, how are you dear?" Then the other girl turned and stared. "Annabeth, don't stare. Its rude." The woman chided. The girl named Annabeth, patted the spot next to her. I went over and sat down.
"Not to be rude, or anything, who are you?" I asked.
"My name is Aphrodite dear."
"Sorta, like the goddess?"
"Exactly like the godess. Now, how are you feeling? Both of you?"
Then we both started crying, and hugged each other.
"Obviously, not well, then."
Suddenly she gasped and said "Caitlyn, dear, you have to wake up NOW!"

When I woke up I could hear police sirens. I got down and ran. I ran until I ccouldn't hear the sirens anymore. When I finally slowed to a walk, I took out my cell and put on Fighter by Jamie Grace.

"Seven bucks an hour,
Bills stacked on the counter,
Got a bbaby on the way they'll have to feed,
His pride is getting torn down,
His confidence is worn out,
This ain't the way he dreamed that it would be,
But he won't ever ask why
Cause he's made up his mind...
He's a fighter.
Got that fire,
When they thought he'd fade away,
Throws a fist up,
As he gets up,
Feelin' stronger every-"

But then in the reflection, I saw something that shouldn't exist. I screamed a blood curdling scream, and did the only heroic thing I could think of. I passed out. But I passed out in a heroic way.
