CHAPTER SEVEN
 
The others made it back to the captain's house to find everyone was still okay. “Did you, guys do it?” asked Caitlin.
 
“Yeah, we dumped it all.” Wyatt said as they hopped out. “How's he doing?”
 
“I think he's starting to come too.” said Jude.
 
The captain moaned a little as he awoke. “Ow! What hit me?” he asked.
 
Caitlin decided not to tell him that. “Uh, never mind.” she said. “How's your head?” The captain felt across his head. “It feels… lumpy.” he said. “What happened?”
 
“We took it all back…” Jonesy said. “…and it worked… the demons are at rest.” Everyone nodded in agreement.
 
The captain smiled the biggest smile he had ever smiled. “Thank you, kids. Thank you.” He gleamed. “After all these years, finally I can sleep with a clear conscience.”
 
He decided to head inside for a much needed rest, there would be much for him to do tomorrow. His jewelry shop would have to be closed down, but at least he was free from the demon's curse.
 
…or so he thought.
 
The others suddenly saw Amelie was still sitting in my car, and she was looked almost petrified in sadness and deep woe. That's when they noticed… “Where is he?” Jude asked. “Where's Mykan?”
 
Nikki held Jonesy's hand tightly, and Serena rested her head on Wyatt's shoulder. Jen's head dropped forward. The others were started to figure out what happened, and their fears were answer when Jonesy answered them, shaking his head. “He… didn't make it.”
 
The others held the jaws open not wanting to believe the awful truth, but Amelie came out of the car. He clothes stained with my blood, and she held out my shades… the only piece left of me.
 
Caitlin and Starr had tears in their eyes, but they felt so hurt, they couldn't sob, and Jude… he began walked towards the wall of the house with his hand against the cold bricks. “Awe! Oh, oh… no, no! Awe, Man!”
 
 
They thought that the least they could do before heading home that night was hold a small memorial for me. They place my shades on a tree-stump near the lake, and each bid their goodbyes to me.
 
Jude even carved my name in the stump. “You were a great dude, Mykan. I'm really going to miss you buddy.”
 
Amelie wiped her eyes with a tissue. “'E died trying to save me.” she cried. “It's just not fair.”
 
Jonesy put a comforting arm around her. “Hey… look at it another way. He helped us save the rest of the world. At least he died a hero.”
 
Amelie knew he was right, but it didn't change anything for her. “I want him back Jonesy!” and she threw herself into his arms and sobbed into his chest.
 
Jonesy comfortingly held him close, and Nikki didn't mind. “Take it easy Amelie… you just let it all out now.”
 
Suddenly, we heard the captain SCREAM form inside. They all dashed inside, and… “AAH!!” the captain had been murdered by more of the demons.
 
“No! Why didn't it work!!” Jonesy yelled!
 
Then one by one, more demons popped out of nowhere and began to kill everyone. Jen, and Caitlin had their heads cut off. Wyatt and Serena got speared through the heart. Nikki and Jonesy even had their brains ripped out.
 
Only Jude and Starr were left. “Whoa! What's going on?!” Starr cried.
 
“I don't know!” her boyfriend said, but the he suddenly noticed, Nikki was still wearing that black necklace Jonesy had given her. They still hadn't given back all treasures.
 
Jude got down and grabbed it. “Is this it?!” he yelled at the demons. “Is this what you want! TAKE IT!!” he threw the necklace, but they still kept on coming.
 
“Jude! They're like, still coming!” cried Starr.
 
Obviously the demons were still mad about their treasures being taken in the first place. “Starr… looks like this is it babe.”
 
“Yeah… I'll see you on the other side.”
 
They kissed one last time, only to be torn apart by the demons. Jude and Starr screamed as the room began to spin around, and around, and around some more… AND THEN--
 
 
Jude fell out of bed. “Huh? What the--” he said as he straightened himself upright. “Whoa! What just happened?” he looked up at his TV which announced they had reached the end of their “24-hour horror special.
 
It was all just a dream… like when Jude dreamed about the Zombies in the mall. This meant that everyone was still alive, and there were no demons at all. “YAH-HOO-HOO-HOO!!!”
 
(Come on! You didn't honestly think I would just do all that to the gang, and my own character like THAT? The 6teen show and my 7teen fics really are too much fun to lose any of them now.)
 
Later on at the mall
 
Everyone was okay…
 
Stanley causing trouble with his pop-gun. His Yummy-Mummy flirting with teenaged boys, and not a trace of the demons ever appearing at all. Jude made his way to the lemon and found we were all still alive.
 
“What's happening?” he said with cheer.
 
“Whoa. Someone sure seems happy this morning.” said Nikki.
 
“Yeah, what gives man?” asked Wyatt.
 
 
Before Jude could tell us about his nightmare, Jonesy had a little gift for Nikki. “thought of you the moment I saw it.” and he presented her with a black pendant necklace.
 
Jude gasped. “No way.” he muttered.
 
I also showed everyone the latest episode of Stingray I just finished. The Golden Sea. “The WASPs discover a way to get gold out of ocean water, and a hoard of sea demons vow vengeance for being robbed.” I told them.
 
Jude SCREAMED in terror and ran for it. “What's eating him?” Jen asked.
 
Jonesy and I exchanged confused looks. Was it something we said?
 
(Ending theme and credits)
 
-I'm 7teen, I have found my own way.
I love my job and I live at the mall today.
Now that, I'm on my own forever.
I'm… 7teen, life was sweet, though we grew up way too fast…
Still the memories will last.
