In a quick motion the dagger in Chester's hand comes rushing down onto one of us.

Ashton.

Colby, Ashton and the others are in front of me. We are a bit spread out since it is an open field. Being crammed together navigating through trees is not the best thing in the world.

As we walk further, I notice something's off. Before I know it, a dagger is sliced through the air and Ashton falls down.

The ground is shaking as Ashton's blood is absorbed into the ground.

The wind is circling us faster.

The sky is covered with gray clouds and you can hear the thunder in the distance.

The nightmare.

Kristen quickly protects him, and the dagger is stopped before penetrating him. Colby turns around to the sound of Kristen's scream.

Nathan lets go of my hand and begins to sprint. Chester is about to strike Colby in the heart but before he can, Nathan tackles Colby away from the dagger.

Then everything stops. No one moves. The trees don't rustle, my family doesn't move. There's no sound. Just like a picture.

Scarlett looks over at me

Scarlett looks over at me.

'Prepare.' She whispers through the link. I have the protection spell ready and quickly see Chester with a dagger aiming for my mate. I let out a shriek and protect Ashton.

It's happening.

Colby turns at the sound of my scream and Chester goes for him next. Luckily, Nathan somehow predicted it and tackles Colby away from his father's dagger. Chester turns around and doesn't run. He instead throws the dagger and penetrates Scarlett in the stomach. I breathe out and my eyes fill with tears to the brim.

No.

Scarlett flinches back from the impact. She looks down at the red and black dagger lodged into her abdomen. Blood begins to seep out from the wound and her breathing turns labored. She lets out a cough and blood trickles out from the corner of her lips. Her blood begins to rush out faster from the wound and the ground begins to shake.
