SADIE: Sadie is a nickname for the name Sarah (the biblical version). Sarah is serious and sweet while Sadie is full of sass and spunk. Personalities are what make a person who they are. And although Sadie is a nickname for Sarah, it's important to remember that they are still two very different names...

3rd Person POV

SADIE: Trauma is an interesting thing. Sometimes you remember it and...and sometimes you don't. If you remember it, you wanna forget it but if you never remembered it at all...that's where it's a tricky line between wanting to know what happened and being unable to face the pain of what happened.

SADIE:  I don't remember much about the night my family died...the only thing I remember is that I was saved by Hope and Dr Saltzman, but everything is decently blank. However, just because my consciousness cannot remember it, doesn't mean my subconscious doesn't remember. And that's where the nightmares come in. 

SADIE: However, my nightmares are slowly becoming my reality. Josie blasted us with a spell to make us remember Hope...but that's not all I'm remembering. It's time to find out what I've been forgetting this entire time....

SADIE: But first...the story starts in the real world...

"She's still knocked out?" Hope asks, staring at Sadie's sleeping figure on the bed 

"Yeah." Lizzie says, leaning against the doorway. "She won't wake up."

"How long?" Hope asks 

"She got hit with Josie's spell." Lizzie says. "She passed out, then woke up mumbling gibberish before passing out again. So...since last night." 

"Hmm." Hope hums, thinking 

"What're you thinking?" Lizzie asks

"Not sure if we should wake her up or leave her to wake up on her own." Hope says 

Lizzie shrugs 

"Let's spell her in for right now." Hope suggests, closing the door to Sadie's room. "And then we'll get Dorian." 

"Okay." Lizzie says 

The two connect hands and chant a spell on the door

SADIE: Now, our story takes place 6 years ago on a dark, snowy night...

FLASHBACK 

12-year-olds Sadie and Sarah Nightshade awoke to the sounds of yelling. They sit up in bed. Sadie rubs her eyes before standing up and walking to the door of their bedroom

"Sadie..." Sarah warns in a whisper

Sadie peeks into the hallway, the yelling getting louder

Sadie walks down the stairs and sees her father and mother arguing

"If you won't tell them, I will!" Her father yells at her mother

Soon, Sarah joins Sadie and the two girls watch, crouching and looking through the railing at the scene  

"No!" Her mother yells. "Please! They can't know!"

"They have to!" Her father yells. "It's driving me crazy!"

"Have you taken your meds?" The mother yells the question

"Don't make me angrier!" The father growls through his teeth

But his teeth weren't human teeth...and his nails weren't human nails
