Milly:

Date: July 24th, 2019.

Bellatrix decided to come to the Shade Hunter Division to help us out while Abigail offered to handle with helping the Night Runners by herself while her sister helped us out with preparing for battle, something I was not really prepared for as I already had so many eyes on me. Knowing that Amanda knows about secret with the rest of the Sky of Silver Souls, I wasn't ready to head into battle. My anxious ways caught Bella's attention as she walked up to me and asked: "Can we talk, Milly? You seem a bit nervous."

Shit! I've caught someone's attention. What do I do? What do I do? I guess I just need to play along and just give believable answers to every question she might ask me.

"Sure." I replied. And then we went outside of the camp to talk.
...
Bellatrix:

"You've been awfully paranoid recently, Milly. Is something going on that you should tell us about?" Bella began. I didn't know what to say, but I replied to her question by saying: "I'm just a bit scared about the battle is all."

Bellatrix: "If it's the incident that happened thirteen days ago that you're afraid of repeating again, then I understand. All I'm going to say is this: Try and resist your urge of doing if you feel like doing again. Murder isn't a solution; it's a problem that can affect a person if they were to commit it."

Milly: "I know that! Summer already gave me the lecture and I don't need to hear the same bullshit that I have already heard and know that it's wrong!"

Bellatrix: "Okay, no need to get snappy. All I'm saying is that we need to be careful with what we do as it could make a major impact on everyone, including ourselves in the future and when we look back, we might regret it."

Milly: "I guess you're right, Bella. Well, we better get back to what we were doing cause it's gonna finish itself."

Bellatrix: "All right."

As we were heading back, I then stopped and asked Milly: "Hey, Mill. Do you have knowledge of who may be behind the dream murders?"

Milly: "No, I unfortunately don't but I'm sure we'll find out who's behind it all soon."

She then went back into camp and I followed behind her. That was strange, Milly just said all of that with ease without even acting strange.

Maybe she knows something we clearly don't know about other than one person.
