*Nobody's POV
Rain began to pour down, but LAnn kept running until she reached the spot where Billie and she had last been. Nothing. Ann refused to believe it and fell to her knees, searching the bushes and areas around her. When she reached the spot Billie had last been standing, she finally found a clue to what had happened while she was gone. Blood. The rain had washed most of it away, but she could tell that there had been blood. A lot of it. She cried out and huddled up into a ball, sobbing and rocking herself.
"Come back!" she hoarsely cried. "Come back Billie! I love you..." She closed her eyes and sobbed herself to sleep.
***
She woke up a couple hours later, choking on water. It was still pouring. She got up and looked around. She was standing in a giant puddle! Well, not really a puddle. More of a swimming pool. Heartbroken, she sat down in it. It came up to her shoulders.
"I'm going to die here," she thought. "Where, where Billie died."
The rain kept pouring down, but still Ann sat. The rain kept pouring until the water was up to her chin. Still Ann was unmoved. Suddenly she heard a yell. Her eyes popped open and she immediately stood up, straining to hear the voice.
"Ann! Stop!" the voice called.
"Billie? Billie!" she cried, and ran towards where she thought the yell came from. But the valley was deep, and the earlier sturdy dirt and grass had turned to a slippery mud. No matter how hard she tried, she could not get out. The rain kept pouring, and the water slowly rose, but she Ann could not get out.
*Billie's POV
Billie's eyes popped open. It was very bright, and he couldn't see anything. He knew that he was dead.
"No!" he yelled. "I have to save Ann!" He scrambled up and rubbed his eyes. His eyes slowly got used to the brightness, and he was shocked. He was in a room...and Lily was standing there. But Lily was not a zombie like back on the island. She was a normal person!
"Lily?" he asked, and she nodded. "But, the island, and Ann, the knife..." he stuttered, but she cut him off.
"Anyone who is dies on the island is due to a horrible fate. My body will wander the island forever as a zombie, and my spirit will wander...well...nowhere!" Lily told him.
"So, I'm dead?" Billie asked slowly.
"Yes, and no." she replied. "You are half dead. You are dying. Look at yourself."
Billie looked down and gasped in shock. He could see through himself!
"Ann thinks you are dead and is going to drown herself." Lily sadly told him.
"What? No!" he yelled. "Let me see her!"
Lily showed him a window in the floor, and peered through it. He saw Ann silently sitting in a huge pool of water. The water was already up to her chin!
"Ann! Stop!" he shouted. He saw Ann jump up and clamber towards the least steep part of the valley. She began to climb up, but immediately slid back down. She was stuck!
"No!" he yelled, and turned to Lily. "Send me back, now!"
"Wait, no, you don't understand-" Lily began, but Billie silenced her.
"NOW!!!"
Lily slowly nodded, and everything began to get dark.

Billie opened his eyes. He was laying on a plank of wood, being swept away by a stream!
*Ann's POV
Ann had been trying to get out of the valley for hours, and she was extremely tired. It was still raining, unbelievably. The water was rising fast and was up to her neck standing up! The water was extremely cold and Ann was numb and unfeeling. She tried one last dash to try and get up, but was unsuccessful.
"No!" Ann burst into tears. "Billie! Help me!"
By now, the water was up to her nose, and she had to swim. But all the climbing had tooken away all her energy. After only ten minutes of swimming, she began to sink.
"I'm sorry Billie..." she managed to slur out, and sunk to the bottom.
