"𝙄𝙏 𝙒𝙊𝙍𝙆𝙀𝘿."
Natalya was in her bedroom studying when Sabrina came into her room. Sabrina wrapped her arms around her cousin and pulled her into a tight hug. Natalya sets her books aside to pay her full attention to her cousin.
Harvey was happy, according to Sabrina. Tommy was alive and back at the Kinkle house. The older Kinkle boy, however, was in a state of shock, and hadn't spoken since he left the mines.
Natalya raised a brow.
Though she has never resurrected someone— well, until now— she knew they should be talking almost immediately. It's what's happened to Hilda the many times Zelda killed her.
"Sabrina, what if something goes wrong?" Natalya asks.
According to Sabrina, Tommy hasn't spoken, nor has he eaten since returning back from the mines. Ambrose was worried when Sabrina told him the news, and immediately suggested getting Benjamin, Zelda, and Hilda.
Sabrina made him not tell them.
"They'll find out eventually. Especially my dad," Natalya says.
"That's exactly what Ambrose said," Sabrina says.
"Then he's right, 'Brina. We need to tell someone."
Natalya got up from her bed and made her way to her door. Sabrina was quick to get on her feet to stop her younger cousin from leaving the room. When Natalya turned around, she was met with the pleading eyes of Sabrina.
Natalya threw her hands up in defeat.
"Fine. Just know, if my dad or the aunties find out, we're both in deep shit."
Sabrina gave Natalya a hug before exiting her room. Natalya sat back down on her bed and buried her face in her hands. The feeling of guilt overwhelmed her. She began to ask herself what would go wrong?
Natalya went back to drown herself in books, letting sleep consume her as the hours passed by.

Natalya opened her eyes to find herself standing inside of the Kinkle house. The room she was in was dimly lit covered in comic posters and different street signs. It was Harvey's room, she could easily tell. There were photos of Sabrina, Roz, Harvey and Susie on his desk.
Natalya smiled and picked up a photo of Harvey and Sabrina kissing. Suddenly, there was a loud thud below her. She places the photo back on Harvey's desk and ran downstairs. She grew suspicious when she saw blood streaking down the stairs.
Someone was dragged down the stairs.
She came upon a disgusting sight of a man's arm on the ground. The sound of teeth biting into flesh filled her ears. Natalya crept into the living room to see Tommy hunched over on his knees.
