Epilogue

Normal P.O.V.

When Eliza woke up in the hospital, the first thing she noticed was her twin, curled up like a cat in a chair by her bed.

The second thing she noticed, was that she was clutching an old fashioned, iron key in her hand.

Tears flooded her eyes as she remembered her adventures in that other world.

…

Later, she learned that she had been in a coma the entire time she had been in 'Wonderland', as she called it.

She also learned that her adopted father had died in the earthquake, living his wife grief-stricken.

When Eliza got out of the hospital, she started speech therapy to retrain her newly repaired vocal cords how to speak.

Two years later, on September ninth, a movie called 9 came out. When her family went to see it, she cried through each and every death.

A year after that, on the triplets' eighteenth birthday, their mother killed herself out of grief, leaving the twins in the care of Rick.

Two years after that, during the summer before her sophomore year, Eliza dated Colin, the school jock. But she broke it off after only a month when he got too possessive.

It was a week after this that she came home to an adolescent boy with messy dark hair, and wearing a stripped shirt and black shorts, sitting on the front porch. Now, this alone wasn't strange. No, what was strange were his eyes.

It wasn't the fact that the left one was gold, and the right one was silver. It was something in them, something only one person in the universe had.

"6."

Me: Yes, there will be a sequel. No, you won't see it for a few months. I will, however, post previews as I write the chapters. I'll also post pictures in my D.A. gallery. So please, stay calm and watch 9! ^_^ I'll also update 'Living with the 9' as soon as I can. -_-

1: Lazy.

Me: *sob* I know!
