Bellatrix:

That night, when we went back home to regain our energy for the next day; at first, I was sleeping well whereas Abby was fast asleep by this point. But at some point at around 9:36 p.m. or so, I began to feel… a little bit uncomfortable in my bed–I began to feel restless and uneven with myself that I began to toss and turn in the bed and feel very hot to the point where my entire body began to sweat profusely. Was our room a bit too hot due to the intense summer heat, or was it just me? Why am I sweating so much? Why do I feel uncomfortable? What's wrong with me? Just then, it felt like my mind got lost and I got lost along with it as I later found myself in the Vision Realm, a realm we were becoming all too familiar with by this point in time-but with no explanation, I fell into the pitch black darkness of the realm and placed into a setting where I would receive a terrifying harbinger that I would never forget about even to this day.

Date: July 19 - July 20, 2019.

I then found myself in the dead center of the forest not long afterward; at first, everything around me seemed normal, everywhere I looked, everything looked the same as it was before to me, and the aroma of the rich ground of the Earth's surface layer was still the same; it all looked and smelled… real; very real at that—all too real. I decided to look and wander around the area for a while to see what I could find. But when I did, I began to think twice about it.

I walked into an open area that led out of the forest-the moon shined bright and acted like a beacon in the dark for those who were lost. But it gave off a blood red lueur and covered the ground in the same blood color, but it looked normal, well, for a good while until it began to turn blood red itself and as it was doing that, I began to feel horrible, unbearable exertion of having a terrible mingrane worse than anyone has ever had in their lives! God, please, make it stop already! I can't handle such pain as bad as what I'm feeling right now! I begged as I began to writhe in such, terrible, unbearable agony that I found too real to even be true! I groveled in pain for twelve mintues until the finally went away for good, only to be replaced by the sound of loud, deafening-like ringing in my ears! No, please, not again, please, not again! I begging you, please, not again! But this time, it only lasted for only a mintue until it stopped much to my relief. And so, I kept on exploring, but this, with more caution as I inspected the area around me once again without feeling any sort of pain from there and continued on. Just as I was walking, I was then met by the spirit of SilverSun and I stopped right where I was. "Even the most leal of friends can hide something dark from the rest." She told me. I was confused. What did she mean by "The most leal of friends can hide something dark from the rest."? Was someone hiding something from us that we didn't know about? Why would she come to me about this? "What do you mean?" I asked her; no answer, just silence in response. But it did not take long until she replied: "One of your closest friends is hiding a secret from all of you that only one knowns about. When the time comes, you'll understand more of what I mean very soon."

Bellatrix: "Very soon? What are you—"

Without another word, she disappeared, leaving me alone once again in the fictional, yet real forest that I was still exploring. As I was about to continue on with my exploring, I then heard the low, yet very clear sound of growling nearby, but before I could react quickly enough, I was attacked and I quickly woke up and let out a small yelp of horror over what just happened. But I saw no injuries on me, but my entire body was pouring down sweat as I began to hypervenilate while I felt my pulse running faster than a racehorse that was let loose from the field in which it grazed in. All of this had alerted Abby from her sleep. "Bellatrix, what happened?" She asked as she examined me up and down where she then asked: "Bellatrix, why are you drenched in sweat?"

Bellatrix: "It was just another nightmare, that's all it was."

Abigail: "Are you really sure about that? I heard you tossing and turning while talking to yourself in ypur sleep as well. Don't you think that that's a raise for concerns?"
