or secret movie props, and Kat was just looking behind her every five seconds.

I covered my eyes with the back of my right hand, and Kat covered hers, since the tornado was spinning a bit faster.

It was the size and height of a coffee table, except gray and fast, and circular.

Kat was mumbling words to herself, like I was two days ago? A week ago? Yesterday? Yeah, yesterday. When I was whispering 'Caraphernelia' to myself. I nudged her arm, and she mouthed, 'Empire' by Bring Me The Horizon.

"It's the start of the end. Surrender the throne, the blood on my hands covered the holes. We've been surrounded! By vicious cycles! The scars on your heart are yours to atone. We've been surrounded! Let 'em sing! Let 'em sing!" We whisper screamed the "Let 'em sing!" and "We've been surrounded!" and of course, "By vicious cycles!" 

Seyne stepped back form her tiny tornado, and shouted over the noise. She cupped her hands over her mouth an yelled, "Alice! Step into it!" I hugged Kat even tighter, held up my hand as "wait five minutes!" to Seyne, and talked to her quickly."Kat, I love you a lot. And I don't wanna lose you at all. If we lose each other, I'll still be alone in the world even when I can see the world. You're the bestest and only friend I have that actually understands me. And if we still have each other, you'll know that I actually love you, and I might meet you at the forest again. Right in this spot." I felt tears on my cheeks, and forced the rest not to come out. Only two streaks came from my left eye. 

Kat hugged me tighter, and said in a whispered voice, "I love you too, and don't worry. I still have your number, and two pictures of you. So that's good. And, if we do see each other, I'll meet you here. Maybe we'll summon demons in our neighbor's yards." We both laughed at that, and Kat did something that would've left me hugging her instead of in a tornado. She kissed me. In front of Seyne. Probably in front of people in the forest right now.

Seyne was smiling at us, and offered her hand. I looked at Kat, and she pointed to her heart.

This was it. 

I took Seyne's waiting hand, and looked at Kat again. She smiled at me, and I noticed only one

black tear out of her eyes. I looked at the tornado in front of me. 

It was raging, and on the bottom of the forest instead of leaves and dirt, there was a black hole. 

Not the science nerd hole, but like a cave black hole. Except sideways.

I put my leg in, and it felt as if I was going into a blender. 

I bit my tongue hard enough to make it bleed, and held in my screams.

I put my other leg in, and Seyne hardened her grip on my hand, and made sure I wasn't going to topple. Kat was watching, her eyes hazel color turning more brown than green.

She held her wrist tight with her other arm, and was nodding, as if approving.

I closed my eyes, and jumped into it instead of sitting down.

And then the world's color came back.

I ALREADY MISSED HER.

I still remembered her smiles, her brown eyes, her white hair, and her lip piercing.

Seyne motioned for me to come. "Thanks." I told her. "It's the most I could do." "Don't your parents know you're here?" I asked.  "Well, I said I was at a sleepover. And my friend's covering me, and I told her that I was going out with my crush, even though I don't have one." She said, shrugging. "Queen of white lies." I told her sarcastically. "More black than white, mate." She said, and hugged me. I smiled at her, and looked at the tornado that swallowed Alice. I pursed my lips, and jumped into it as if I was doing a cannonball. When I woke up, I found myself in my bed. I looked outside, and saw three teenagers laughing at each other.

 I was breathing hard, and looked around frantically for Alice's house. Of course, it was there.

I kicked off my covers with my creepers, and ran outside.

The teenagers gave me the rock sign, and I smiled at them.

They were wearing band shirts, and the only girl had pastel purple hair with snakebites, and all of them had skateboards. But, I didn't want to waste my time describing them instead of finding Alice.

"Alice. Alice. Alice. Alice," my mind chanted. I ran to her house, and rang the doorbell.

No answer. I felt like a rock was in my stomach that weighed me down.

Then, I remembered that Alice said she would be in the forest.

I sprinted all the way there, jaywalked, or jay-sprinted there, and wasted five minutes to get there.

And, there she was.

Her white hair in a bun, her scene bangs falling over her black outlined brown eyes, hiding her perfect black eyebrows. She was wearing leggings, black Converse sneakers, a Pierce the Veil shirt, and a black oversized jacket.

I ran to her silently, and grabbed her by the shoulders behind her.

She was surprised, and turned around and hugged me tight.

I rested my head onto her shoulder, leaning down a bit to get to her height.

"I missed you." She said, still holding me tight. "Me too." I told her, and she sat down at a nearby stump.

I came there, and sat on the ground. "Are you happy we've been cured?" She asked, looking at me.

"No, actually. I loved not being to see people, and being alone." I said sarcastically. We laughed, and I got up to kiss her head. She smiled, and we pretty much walked home holding hands while the three teenagers were smiling at us, laughing and giving me the thumbs up. I pursed lips into a smile, and sang Bring Me The Horizon, Pierce the Veil, My Chemical Romance, and Black Veil Brides songs. And it was perfect.
