ROBIN:
Wait! Guys you can't go outside!

AMBER & ELLA:
Why not?

ROBIN:
First of all, it's like two AM in the morning plus, you know that time when Amber saw that girl with blood on her hands? Well, I saw what she looked like.

AMBER:
Why didn't you say?!

ROBIN:
I thought I was having hallucinations but a few days ago, when you said you saw her Amber, I got quite scared and didn't say anything.

ELLA:
What's your point?

ROBIN:
My point is she is the killer...

ELLA:
And she's in my dream?

AMBER:
And the girl from the USA?

ROBIN:
I know it's crazy, but-

AMBER:
But what?

ROBIN:
OK, so the story goes like this. I was walking along this path after you guys left me, and I saw this girl. She had straight dark brown hair and b-

AMBER&ELLA:
Blue eyes...

ROBIN:
Yes, how did you-? Oh right, anyway she told me her favorite job will be in the war because of guns. She said guns were her favorite things...

ELLA:
Were?

ROBIN:
Do you want me to finish?

AMBER:
Yes, do go on!

ROBIN:
She said she now likes sharp things, knives, and the edges of bottles. Anyway, she said that the last time she held a gun was in a dream. And the first time she held something sharp was when she was cutting a turkey. She said that made her realize what sharp things can do...

ALTOGETHER:
Create a slower death and see the last little truth in people.

ROBIN:
...

ELLA:
...

AMBER:
...

ROBIN:
She said she's missing something though, something sharp, but you can't buy it the way it is.

AMBER:
You mean...

ELLA:
This green sharp bit of glass that someone threw at me in the taxi?

ROBIN:
Yes, that...

AMBER;
That means, the person that attacked your dad, Robin, tried to attack you, Ella, and could get any of us!

ELLA:
Let's just sleep it off okay?

ROBIN:
Yeah, but it will be hard getting all this off our minds.

AMBER:
It will and I don't doubt that but it's better if we try.

The three girls packed their things and slept for the last bit of the night.
