[Hears a rattling noise coming from inside the house as he's about to leave]

Ms. Wilkes. [goes back into the house] Ms. Wilkes, are you alright?

[from the basement]

Here! Here! I'm down here! Down here! [Buster opens the door and finds Paul reaching his hand out for him]

Mr. Sheldon? [Annie shoots Buster through the chest with a 12 Gauge Double Barreled shotgun]

[puts the shotgun aside and walks down the steps]

Don't feel bad, Paul. It was bound to happen sooner or later. It's a sign. You see, I've known for some time why i was chosen to save you. You and i were meant to be together forever. But now our time in this world must end. But don't worry, Paul. I've prepared for what must be done. I put two bullets in my gun: one for you, and one for me. Oh, darling, it'll be so beautiful. [She goes back upstairs. Paul looks around the basement for something. Annie returns with a syringe and a Colt Cobra] Now, don't be afraid. I love you. [Annie walks down the steps]

I love you, too. [Annie stops] And you're right, we are meant to be together. And I know we must die. But it must be so that Misery can live. We have the power to give Misery eternal life. We must finish the book.

But the time is now. Soon others will come.

It's almost finished. By dawn, we'll be able to give Misery back to the world.
