Wanna feel alive, outside,
I can't fight my fear

'They' can't do anything about this... except Sean. He has enough amount of energy left... but, that monster is too strong. He feels numb, he can't feel his legs. This isn't just feeling like dying, it is dying, literally.
There's no need to think again, they're out of time. He furrows his eyebrows, starts making the thunder stronger and stronger so that the magic stays for a while. This is the strongest stunning magic that Sean doesn't even know it can be. The bear growls and starts to fight back. But, the more it fights back, the stronger Sean makes the thunders.
He's draining all of his energy, and possibly over-estimating it. Will it even be worth it? Yes… it'll be. What if this all ends with death?... It's not the time to think about that, right now. Life is already a living hell, anyways.
His hands begin to shake, almost can't take the thunders anymore. It feels like there's something rips apart inside him. This is twice the pain. The bear keeps fighting back, nto yet surrendering. His eyes turns black as a warning cause this is the limit. But, he doesn't stop. Just a little more, he'll overlimit his power and die.
Suddenly, A gush of wind suddenly blows from Sean and the bear. Ansell widens his eyes in wonder and shock… Black thunder is strong. Sean opens his eyes and sees, the bear covered with black thunders. It stops moving... It worked? without me, dead? Sean smiles in relief as his eyes goes back to the normal gray color. This feels so surreal.
But, his relief turns into pain. His headache starts to feel like a bunch of arrows piercing through the skull. Everything moves and doubles. His vision is getting worse. He begins to lose control of his balance. He falls with eyes closing and body surrendering to the pain.
Ansell's heart sinks, "Seanan!" he shouts as he runs towards Sean. He quickly checks his pulse as his first instict and breathes in relief. It's still beating, but it's fainting. He checks if he's still breathing… And fortunately, yes. He carries Sean, "Let's go…" he says to Harvey. He can't even look at Blake, right now. Leg and arm tangling like a broken doll, he bleeds too excessively for a human being. "You're still able to move, right?"
"Yeah… how's your leg? It looks deep" Harvey sees Ansell's leg who can't stop bleeding actually. The blood's still dripping on the ground.
"I don't care,". They begin to walk back. Heartbroken… is an understatement for him. "Let's go fast… They need help. Blake is alive, right?"
Harvey got silent.

Nearest Hospital,
20 minutes after,
"what're you waiting for? Heal him!" Ansell says, standing up. Blake's lying at the hospital bed. Sean is in the emergency room right now, his head needs immediate heal and care. They already told the story to the teachers before the ambulance got here. The teachers are taking care of a few things right now, outside the room. They (the whole team) are sitting near Blake. Some are holding tears, some are hoping, some still couldn't believe in all of this.
"We can't heal him… we're sorry, he can't be helped," the doctor says, about to explain Blake's condition.
"What do you mean?! Use your healing!" Ansell clenches his fists… Blake isn't gonna die, right?... No, he won't. He's just unconscious.
"Ansell, quit it… Blake's dead…" Fernandez states. Ansell's already arguing with the doctor for 5 minutes straight. He can't take it anymore. His power is seeing souls. He can't see a light glow in Blake's body that he usually sees on others. So, why bother arguing?
'Well, says someone who started all of this…" Ansell spats making fern widens his eyes in annoyance.
He glares at Ansell and says "Yes… and I'm sorry…" He's already filled with remorse since the start. Why is this kid has to be a b*tch on times like this?! He holds his anger. "I'm speaking facts… Blake's dead… accept it…"
"He's not fully dead!" Ansell says with a monotone voice, making Fern widens his eyes again. "Will, jolt him up!" Ansell points at Blake, looking towards Will and the doctor. Will just sits there in silence, he has electricity power… But, can't jolt people like in the movies.
"You can't do that, Ans. I know more than you," Fern stands up. He understands what Ansell's feeling. But, how long is he going to continue hallucinating like this?
"Well, you can't see the future. Maybe, his soul will come back!"
"That's impossible…" Fern furrows hia brows? When will he understand? Maybe, he needs a more harsh knock.
"We live in a paranormal world! Everything's possible," A world where surgeries are performed with healing powers, where car accidents rarely happens, where you can see people floats or carrying trees like it's nothing. So, it's not impossible for Blake to come back living, right?
"Powers has limits, oh little small brain. Stop being in delusional! Face it! He's dead… no one can change that."
"No there's st-"
"Look! Look at that thing, right there!" Fern cuts his sentence, pointing towards a green straight line. "There's no heartbeat. Just, stop it! You're not the only one who's sad!"
Ansell just stands there in silence, looking at Blake for a few seconds. He walks besides Blake and grabs his hand. When he rubs Blake's soft hands, he begins to remember… the golden memories. He holds back his tears. It's his fault, not Fern's. He can't save Blake from a single bear… He's the one who gives Blake a slow death… he's the one who's causing Sean to be like that… Harvey to lose his energy. Something's pushing his chest so hard as if it's trying to kill him. You can see flashes of pain on his light blue eyes. "I'm so sorry…" He says to all of his friends, especially Fern.
Fern pats his back softly, calming him down. He and the others aren't very close to Blake, they just met… about 5 months – probably a year. But, Ansell… 5 years. So, this hits him more than any else. Ansell and Blake are inseparable brothers from another mother, they do everything together.
