"We got her to stop coughing and throwing up blood for now but it may happen sometimes in the future. We advise that she stays here for a week so we can study her to see if anything else happens." Doctor Ava explained to mystery's family as mystery sat in bed quietly.

"But Doctor she has already been here for two weeks." Her mother complained.

"Please let her come home." Johnathan begged and the others nodded.

"I can't do that. We need to make sure that it doesn't happen right away and it won't go away. We also need to see if there are other symptoms. We need to figure out the cause for this as well." Doctor Ava explained. "Now you said that she had a huge temper tantrum the same night, am I correct?"

"Yes doctor." All four of them said.

"Well she has been having those as well. I am afraid to say that those will happen frequently but there is a way to make them stop. You need to find something that works to make them stop or it'll go on for hours until she loses so much energy that she passes out. Like she did that night. This temper will possibly happen at least once a day. If you don't find that off switch then when she grows older, the more energy she has she it could go on possibly all day. Yes, she is only at age ten at the moment but she is close to the teen years and it could only get worst." Doctor Ava explained.

"Yes doctor." Her mother whispered and looked down.

"You can have all of today with her." Doctor Ava said and left the room. Once she was gone mystery stood up and ran towards them. She hugged them all tightly and cried silently.

"I missed you so much." She said quietly and stood on her toes to hug her brothers who then picked her up. Mystery laid her head on Jason's shoulder and cried silently.

"Please don't leave." She begged.

"We won't ever leave you. We promise." Jason said. But they did leave.
