Everyday these 4 siblings are fighting a outgoing battle, trying to stay alive, trying to win, but everyday they lose, they still get the pain, even if they're away from their parents, they can't love, they can't be happy... They can't forget.

When the wind blows, the siblings souls blow away to, they become empty inside, full of anger and hatred, never can let anything go! They want the pain to end! They need the pain to end! But to them... It seems the battle is still going and never ending.

"Children" said Linda, "can you explain to me, why you ran away?" The kids stared, "can you tell me what's bugging you?" The kids stared, Ava stood up and walked to the window, Linda and her siblings looked to Ava, she stared out the window, it was a beautiful day out, but all she saw were clowds, and demons, Aiden, then stood up and walked to Ava, "Ava?" He asked, "what is it?" "Aiden?" She asked, "is this earth?" Aiden looked to Chloe and Dawn, Chloe then asked Linda, "can you give us a minute?" Linda nodded and left the room, Aiden then said, "yes" "up there is heaven?" She asked and looked to the sky, "yes" he replied, "and down there is hell?" She looked below her, "yes" "I'm confused" she looked to Aiden, "about what?" "If up there is heaven, down there is hell, and you say this is earth, then why does it feel like hell? And why are there so many demonds?" Her siblings looked to each other then Ava, "because, life is unfair" said Aiden, "humanity is falling, soon only demonds will walk on the earth" said Chloe, "where will we go? Asked Ava, "we probably be already dead" said Dawn, then Linda walked in, "you kids okay?" She asked, the kids nodded and sat back on the couch, Ava still staring out the window.

Linda was concerned, so, once the kids were done therapy for the day, she asked Ruby if she could see only Ava the next day, Ruby thought that would be a good idea, so the next day she went to the group home where the 4 siblings were, she asked for just Ava, when Ava refused to go alone Ruby walked inside and took hold of her hand, but when she turned around Ava's siblings stood by the door, arms crossed, and stared at Ruby, "where you taking her?" Asked Aiden, Ruby sighed, "to see Linda" Ruby replied, "without us?" Asked Chloe, "Linda, asked to see just her for a couple hours today," Ava's siblings looked to each other, then at Ruby, "no" said Aiden, "excuse me?" Asked Ruby, "do your ears work?" Asked Dawn, "I said no" said Aiden, then Ava's siblings looked to Ava, tears falling so quickly, fear in her eye, she didn't want to go without her siblings, "look at her!" Aiden snapped and walked towards Ruby and Ava, Ruby looked down and could see Ava was scared, but Ruby knew Ava has to see Linda at less one time alone, so Linda can help Ava, and maybe get her to talk.

Aiden went to pull Ava away from Ruby but Ruby pulled Ava away, "she is going, she at less needs one time alone with Linda, if you kids want you can come with us, but Ava goes in the room alone" said Ruby, Ava's siblings looked to each other then Ava, even if they didn't want Ava to go alone, they thought it would be better they go, then not, if Ava needs them they will be there.

When the kids arrived at Linda's office door, Linda came out, "hi again" said Linda, "come in, we have stuff to go over" said Linda, she then went to take Ava's hand, but Ava pulled away, she was scared, didn't know what to expect, she didn't want to go in alone. She ran to Aiden, Linda walked to Aiden and said, "this will be good for her, she won't be so scared anymore" Aiden looked down to Ava, then at Chloe and Dawn, then the 3 oldest siblings kneed down to Ava, "it's okay Ava" said Chloe, "no one will hurt you" said Dawn, Ava shuck her head, she knew her sisters were meaning that she go in the room alone, "Ava, everything will be okay, we will be here, if you need anything, all you have to do is shout and we'll be in to kick anyone's ass" Aiden said, Ava giggled, "so Ava, be brave and go in the room with Linda, we are just out that door" Ava nodded and hugged her siblings, then took Linda's hand and entered her office.
