Quote:
Tears slipped down Biana’s face as she clung on to the ledge on the cliff. She glanced downwards nervously towards the waves. They stared at her, almost looking wistful. She didn’t understand where she was, or how she got there. All she knew was that she had to get out of there.
Calm down, Biana.
You got this, she thought to herself.
She bobbed up and down trying to reach the panic switch on her ring. The ring Dex gave her. And at that she lost her grip and fell.
And somehow, it was the best thing that had ever happened to her.
She was free.
Free from her brother.
Free from ‘the Vacker legacy.’
Free from the Black Swan.
Free from her overwhelming life.
And then it hit her. The ground hit her.
‘’Ugh Biana, why didn’t think of levitating instead of all the freedom nonsense?!?’’ she scolded herself, as she pulled herself up and inspected the colourful bruises all over her. But deep inside she knew that this was what she always wanted. To escape into a realm where she was all alone, and no one saw how hurt she was, inside or outside. Biana had never been one to show her grief. She let herself forget about everything that had ever existed and just lay there.
But one word lingered at the tip of her tongue, urging her to voice it.
‘’Dex.’’
Consciousness rushed to Biana’s head, allowing her to feel the soft bed underneath her. She found the familiar scent of a certain purple imp.
‘’Iggy!’’
Biana opened her eyes to Mr. Forkle and the rest of the Collective sitting around her, a worried look on their faces, as Physic applied some sort of ointment to her left leg, and her mom hailed someone on her Imparter. She twirled her head towards two concerned voices frantically rushing through the door to look at her.
Linh’s face was tear-stained and devastated, and she almost dropped Iggy as she sprinted to Biana. Dex’s was pale and scared.
No reason to worry, Miss Vacker, relax. You've been out for fourteen days. Mr Forkle said.
hahahahahahhaahahahaha

This is really good! But wait, is it part of the original story? I'm kinda confused, sorry.
