"We've always been here..."
"We were reborn... As the monsters before you..."
"You don't know the whole story..."
"...but we'll never forget it..."
"We can not forgive anyone..."
"...not even the ones who couldn't help it..."
"...not even the innocent..."
"Who are you?!?" A new voice whispered.
"I am many things..." Came the other voice. "I was innocent.... Yet there was someone..."
"...more powerful at the time..."
"Why are you telling me these things?"
"To make it clear that you are not alone... And that you will pay for someone else's deeds... Just as we did.."
"MIKE, WAKE UP!"
Mike snapped out of his nightmare.
Melody loomed over him.
"You were muttering in your sleep... Ar-are you alright, Mike?"
"Yeah, it was just a dream..."
He rubbed his eyes.
"Good." She whispered. "Now I have... Business... To attend to... So, uh, bye, Mike..." Melody mumbled, then walked out of the room.
Mike pondered the thought. Melody never had business to attend to to...
He stepped out of his room and glimpsed her exit out the front door. He walked over to the front door.
She had taken her car - which was a black truck - instead of his. Good. He could follow her.
He hopped into his tan car and slid the keys in. He could still see her car in the distance.
He stepped on the gas and went the way he thought she'd went. He eventually got close to her car, but he didn't get close enough that she'd have a good view of his car. Then she'd realize he'd followed her.
She pulled into a clearing next to the side of the road, glanced around, and then took off running toward the forest.
Mike pulled in next to her car and hopped out of his car. He followed close behind her, trying not make any loud noises.
"Melody..." Came a voice. Mike dove into a bush.
"Ah. You again."
There stood a man. He growled as he dropped what was in his hand - which appeared to be a badge - onto the ground and put his foot down on it.
Melody chuckled.
"You bring your son?" The man snickered.
"He's not my son; he's Chelsea's son!"
The man rolled his eyes. "Whatever." The man's eyes where white and lifeless; was he... blind?
"Maybe I misjudged you." Melody muttered.
"I'm sorry for all I've done... I-I..."
"It's fine.." Melody whispered. She glared at the man. He looked down at his feet.
"So.. You forgive me?"
"HECK NO!" Melody snapped. "What you did is terrible, and can never be forgiven, idiot!"
He sighed. "I should've known that." He whispered. "Sorry."
He then ran farther into the deep woods.
Melody turned around and suddenly realized Mike's car was next to hers.
"Oh dear God no..." She growled. "MIKE!"
Mike stepped out of the bushes.
"I'm sorry, but-"
"NEVER MENTION THIS TO ANYONE, OKAY?!"
"Okay, okay! Geez...."
Melody pushed past Mike and walked to her car.
Mike sighed.
It felt like she grew farther away from him each day...
