Becky's POV (In Her Dream)

"I was lying on the grass in the forest when my sweetheart, Freen, came to lie next to me. She held my hand and repeatedly kissed them.

Freen: Mon, I appreciate your love even if you are aware of my true identity and the fact that I am not like you. You are risking your life even by being with me, but I assure you, Mon, that I won't allow anything bad to happen to you. (She spoke in a kind, caring tone.)

Mon: Freen, even though I know you're "The Original Hybrid," I will always choose you because I adore you just the way you are.

I returned Freen's kisses as she leaned in to plant one on my lips.

Freen and I proceeded to my house, and my parents gave Freen permission to enter. It was early in the morning. My dad was seated at the dinner table, and my mom was serving breakfast  aroma of freshly brewed coffee mingled with the scent of homemade pancakes. Freen and I joined for breakfast. While enjoying a pleasant meal, we discussed the upcoming carnival that Mr. and Mrs. Chankimha were planning for this village. After we finish our meal, I assist my mother with the cleaning, and we both go to my tiny room. She drew me in and planted kisses on my lips and cheeks.

We heard Mom crying and a sudden noise downstairs. We ran down, but Freen was immobile when we got there. She grabbed her head and knelt down in agony. Tranquility was shattered when the door burst open, and four ominous figures stormed in. Since the woman was a witch and the other two were vampires. They unleashed chaos and devastation upon the unsuspecting family, my heart pounded with fear as i watched in horror while Freen was immobilized by a mysterious spell cast by one of the witch. One the men was holding me with tight grip. I realized they weren't your typical people. Freen was unable to move and was experiencing severe headaches as the consequence of the witch spell. I noticed that the man was getting closer to my parents. In the blink of an eye, he grasped my mother by the neck and took out her heart. As I witnessed what he had done to my mother, I cried out. To my dad, the other man did the same thing. I couldn't stop crying as i was unable to shield my parents. Freen was in agony, yet she remained immobile.

After a few minutes, however, Damon, Stefan, Jim, Kirk, Kade, Tee, Klaus, and Elijah came sprinting. Tee grabbed the witch and tore off her head and heart, breaking the curse and allowing Freen to move. However, the four men were nowhere to be found. Klaus went to Freen making her stand and I was in shocked by the death of my parents. Freen came toward me..

Freen: Mon, I truly apologize. Mon, I was unable to keep your parents safe (Freen replied, tears streaming down her cheeks).

I was unable to talk because I couldn't even process things. My parents and I were dining and conversing a few hours ago when they were assassinated by an unknown assailant. Why did that happen? My Mom & Dad was never harsh to anyone.

Freen: Baby say something ( she gave me a trembling hug.)

Mon: What did they do to deserve such an agonizing death, Freen (I wept, screaming)?

Freen: I swear to you, Mon, I will find out shortly. Your parents would be unhappy to see you like way, so please calm down yourself. (She said to me, attempting to calm down.)

I was receiving comfort for my loss from Damon, Stefan, Jim, Kirk, Kade, Tee, Klaus, and Elijah.

Freen kissed my forehead and pulled me in closer.

Freen: Baby, we'll locate them soon.
