The next day.

ELLA:
Amber, it's like two am in the morning, why are you staring out the wind-

AMBER:
Ella!

ROBIN:
Hey guys, what time is i-

AMBER:
Sh.

ELLA:
Why are you shushing us? I don't like being shushed!

AMBER:
Out the window is calming, the sound, I can't sleep.

ROBIN:
Me neither.

ELLA:
Robin, we know that's a lie, we heard you snoring for the past five hours.

AMBER:
Golden trio?

ELLA:
Whoa, we became the golden trio again at two in the morning? I hope that doesn't happen any other day.

ROBIN:
Promise to never break apart?

AMBER:
Promise.

ELLA:
Guys, we will talk about that later- someone's out the window!

AMBER:
Yeah, it's a street, loads of people pass it.

ROBIN:
It's normal Ella.

ELLA:
No I mean, that's the girl from my nightmare!

AMBER:
Are you sure?

ELLA:
I remember her clearly, it's her!

ROBIN:
Oh my god!

AMBER:
Why is she outside our hotel room? Anyway, I can't see her because it's dark.

ROBIN:
I'll turn the hotel light on for the outside.

AMBER:
Thanks, Robin... Wait!

ELLA:
What's wrong?

AMBER:
She's the one that was in your nightmare?

ELLA:
Yeah, why?

AMBER:
That's the same girl I saw at our house at night when we were in the USA the day before we left for this holiday.

ROBIN:
Um, does that mean they are following us?

ELLA:
How about we go out there and speak to them?

AMBER:
Do you want to speak to the girl that shot you in your nightmare?

ROBIN:
That doesn't sound safe...

ELLA:
Fine, you two stay here, I'm not scared of a stupid dream.

AMBER:
I'm coming with you! It's just a dream you had, it's not real.

Amber and Ella both look at Robin.

ROBIN:
Why are you looking at me? I'm not coming, I'm not risking my life, have fun!

ELLA:
What are we to you? You'd rather let us go in the dark late at night than you?

ROBIN:
Um, yes.
