~Chloe's POV~

"BRIAN! TIM! Where are you?!" I called out as I ran through the very familiar woods. My two old friends and I had decided to take a walk through the woods and talk. Unfortunately somehow I lost track of them and I could no longer find them anywhere. I sighed and as I was about to call out for them again I was tackled to the ground. Suddenly I was dressed in my blood soaked yellow hoodie and jeans. I wore my famous mask with black stitched eyes and a smile on it. The person who had tackled me was Hoodie. I pushed him off me and stumbled back up to my feet only to be grabbed and restrained by none other than Masky.

Hoodie stood back up and slowly walked back up to me, who was struggling to get out of Masky's steel like grip. Suddenly Hoodie spoke up and surprisingly he didn't stutter. "What's wrong Lightning? Aren't you happy to see us? As I recall, you were calling out for us so here we are." As he finished his sentence he pulled off his mask revealing himself to be Brian. Chloe was so shocked that for a moment she stopped struggling against Masky, who took the chance to tie her arms behind her back. Hoodie, or should I say Brian, was now standing in front of Chloe, who was once again struggling to break the ropes restraining her limbs.

Brian frowned and in one movement, took off her mask revealing herself to be Chloe. He stared at her as she looked down at the ground in defeat and said, "What's wrong Clo? I thought that you liked me?" Suddenly his gloved hand grabbed her chin and forced her to look up at his. As she did he smashed his lips against her's and plunged a knife deep into her stomach. As he pulled away he whispered to her, "What's wrong Chloe? Don't you still love me?" Then he began to laugh as he stabbed Chloe in her heart before she could respond to his question.

"Aaaaaaah!" I screamed as I woke up with a jolt. What was that? I thought to myself as I sat there covered in sweat and panting slightly. I looked towards my window and pulled aside the curtains allowing the light from the sun to seep into my dark room. As I stared out at the woods I saw something that scared me greatly. A small, quick flash of yellow. I knew that Hoodie knew where we lived so most likely he was sent to spy on us. I didn't think much about it though, and closed my curtains again after turning on the lights. My room was painted black with yellow lightning bolts and designs on it. I had a walk in closet so I went in it and pulled out a plain black, v-neck, T-shirt and then pulled out some jean shorts since it was summer and I wasn't planning on going anywhere today. I grabbed my necklace from my nightstand and put it around my neck. As I did my mind went back to my weird and scary dream.

The necklace consisted of a strong silver chain with a yellow lightning bolt charm on it. The necklace itself might not be too interesting but I think that it suits me perfectly. The necklace had actually been given to me by my two best friends in the world. Tim and Brian. Unfortunately, just shortly before I had my 'incident', they disappeared. I wonder what that dream meant. It couldn't be real. Right? Oh well, I am thinking about this too much. I want food. I headed out my door and headed down the stairs and into the dining room. (Yes now we magically have a dining room and a kitchen. Deal with it) On the table was some pancakes and some waffles, which Emma would usually be fighting over with Kathryn. But today it was silent. Almost everyone was still out of it from our big fight yesterday which leaves the rest of us to help them get better.

So far Megan, Katie, and Eleanor are the only ones who are healed completely. Aria is getting better according to Shadow Stalker and she says that if we are lucky, she might even wake up today. I wonder how she did that thing inside. According to Eleanor, Fiona did something similar to what Aria did as well. I wonder how they did that. Maybe it's some super advanced hunter move. If so, I wonder what I can do. Most likely it will have something to do with lightning. I thought to myself as I began to eat some pancakes.

After breakfast I headed to the living room and decided to check on Aria and Fiona, who were the only ones still in the living room. Fiona was on the couch in what appeared to be, a peaceful sleep. Aria was on a few blankets and pillows spread out on the floor. She too appeared to be in a deep, peaceful sleep. As Chloe was about to leave she randomly looked out the window and froze. Standing in the tree line was Masky and Hoodie. They weren't even trying to conceal themselves. Thinking about them made her dream come up in her mind again. There is no way that Tim and Brian are Masky and Hoodie. They would never try and harm me like Masky and Hoodie did when we first met.

After a few moments of staring between the three of us, I shut the curtains and ran to the weapons room and grabbed three throwing knives and my switchblade. I ran out the door and locked it behind me. I just had to figure out if it was true or not. Mask and Hoodie, they aren't Tim and Brian. At least that's what i am hoping. I readjusted my mask and ran towards them with my knife in hand. When I reached them they didn't run but rather they attacked. I dodged Hoodie as he launched at me and but ended up face planting. I took out a throwing knife and threw it at Masky. He dodged it and tried to grab me but I stabbed his lower arm causing him to stumble backwards.

Unfortunately I was already doomed from the minute I dodged that first attack. As I went to stab Masky again, someone wrapped their arms around me. One around my waist and one grabbed my arm that was holding my knife. I struggled to get out of their grip but they pinned me to the ground and somehow tied my arms behind my back. I tried to scream for the girls but Masky stumbled over and covered my mouth with his hand, preventing me from getting help. I struggled even more as Hoode lifted me up and held me against a tree.

One of his hands was now replacing Masky's had over my mouth while the other reached up and took ahold of my mask. Slowly he lifted it up revealing my face. As soon as he saw who I was though, he dropped me on the ground in shock. I fell to the ground and growled out an ow. I continued to try to work my way out of the ropes but only succeeded in making them cut into my skin. Finally he seemed to come back to his senses and he lifted me up against the tree again. This time though, he took off his mask revealing the same face from my nightmare. It was true, he really was Brian.

I didn't know what to do. My whole world was turned into chaos. I was in so much shock that i didn't even squirm or try to scream anymore. Masky also pulled off his mask revealing himself to be Tim. Suddenly without warning Brian stuttered out "C-Clo? Is it r-really y-you? O-oh m-my god! I-I-I I'm s-so s-s-sorry! I... I d-didn't know t-that it w-was you! P-please f-forgive us C-Clo!" Chloe stared at him for a moment he didn't say a word. Seeing this, Brian didn't even realise what he was doing until he felt their lips touch. At first Chloe was shocked. Here was Brian. Her long lost friend. And he was kissing her. KISSING HER! She didn't know what to do but soon found herself kissing back. They both pulled away for air and Brian spoke again, "I r-really a-always w-wanted to d-do that f-for a while C-Clo." He said with a small smile on his face. Chloe smiled back but then frowned as she looked down at her hands which were still tied. Brian noticed this and cut her ropes.

Chloe tackle hugged him and knocked him to the ground kissing him again. They pulled apart though when Tim spoke up, "Hey you two, Get a room!" They both pulled apart and blushed like mad after realising their position. Tim laughed his butt off as he watched them stumble to their feet with both of their faces as red as they could be. Suddenly Chloe heard Megan call out her name and knew she had to go. Before she left Brian asked one more thing, "Does this mean that we are a thing now?" Chloe was surprised that he didn't stutter but figured that it was because he was comfortable in her presence. Chloe heard her name being called again and turned to Brian, giving him a quick peck on the lips before saying, "What do you think Brian?" Brian just smiled and handed her back her mask which she put back on and ran back to the house to see what Megan wanted.
