Ember's POV

So what am I supposed to do now?

So my friends have been captured by Damian, he took my time stone meaning he can travel back in time now.

So, I have to rescue my friends, stop Damian from screwing up the world, and find a way to kill him. So no pressure there.

Well, you can always jump off a cliff.

"How would that solve anything?" I asked.

It won't, but that's always my plan when there's too much pressure.

"Won't you die?" I asked.

No, I'm an undead wolf. I can't die. Believe me, I tried.

"Wait, who are you?" I asked.

I'm the author.

"Well, in that case, can't you just send me to Damian or even better just kill him?" I asked.

Sorry, restrictions.

"So you're telling me that you have the power to kill Damian and you're not allowed to?" I asked in disbelief.

Sorry, the readers probably want a fight scene, so just using the /kill command wouldn't be quite as thrilling. Unlike Beatrice, who I just killed, because she's nobody important.

"Wow, you are by far, the worst author I've ever heard of." I told her.

But you have heard of me.

"Shut up," I said. "And why are you talking to me now?"

Because I'm bored.

"Can you tell me what's going to happen, please?" I begged.

What good is a story plot if the main character already knows everything that's going to happen, meaning the readers also know what's going to happen?

"Probably not good plot," I admitted. "But I'm not really pleased by the fact that you can't help me."

I can keep you company.

"Okay, fine," I relented. "But if I run out of food, can I eat you?"

Wow, that escalated quickly.

"I'm taking that as a no." I said.

Oh really? What gave it away?

"Are you always sarcastic?" I asked her.

It's one of my best traits.

I swore she sounded a bit smug about that.

"I'm really tempted to try and kill you right now." I told her

Oh, please try to. Go ahead and humor me. I'll just Thanos snap my fingers.

"Wait, who's Thanos?" I asked.

Some evil purple dude who literally got beheaded in the beginning of the movie so I turned off the tv because, welp, that was a boring fight. Oh, and I assumed the movie was over.

"Wow," was all I could say. "Just wow."
