Y/N POV

After Zane basically killed Vylad and I, it was late and I was tired.

"G'night." I said and went to my room to sleep.

The moment I hit my soft bed, my eyes fluttered closed and I entered a deep sleep.

I opened my eyes and looked around.

"Where am I?" I said aloud, and saw a little girl with H/L H/C hair running around inside her house.

Except, it wasn't really her house.

It's my house from when I was little.

Which means..

That little girl is me.

I saw my parents cuddled together on the couch as they watched a movie and whispered sweet nothings to one another.

All of a sudden a cloaked figure broke into the house and little girl me ran downstairs to see what the sound was.

The cloaked figure took off it's hood, and there stood my uncle over my parents' dead bodies.

Little girl me had screamed so loud my neighbours heard and came running to see what the issue was.

My uncle pointed his gun at me and I backed up until I was next to the door.

One of my neighbours had seen the door partially opened, and grabbed little girl me, pulling her outside to safety.

My uncle had run from the house, but when I saw him in a bush he mouthed "Soon."

I woke up crying and Vylad, Garroth and Zane rushed into my room.

"Y/N! Are you okay?! What happened?!" Vylad asked.

"N-nothing.." I muttered. "Bad dream."

"Wanna tell us about it?" Zane asked.

I shook my head and Garroth re-tucked me in as though I were a frightened little child.

"If you need anything, come get one of us." Garroth said and the three of them left my room and Zane closed the door when the other two were out.

I heard their footsteps retreating, and waited until all three of their bedroom doors had closed before I grabbed a box from under my bed.

I unlocked it and took out a journal.

No, it's NOT a diary.

I just use this journal to draw and write a few of my thoughts.

'I had the dream again. It hasn't even been two days since I last had it.

Every night I have to relive my parents murder and know that my uncle is still on the loose.

I was adopted today, which makes me happy, and my new brothers are nice, but..

..I somehow still don't feel safe, even with three brothers and two parents.

I don't want to tell my new family about this because Garroth, Vylad and Zane will tell their parents something is wrong with me and I'll end up in the orphanage again.

At least I'm going to the same school as them.

That makes me a feel a little more safe, I guess.

Anyway, I'm going to the roof to get some fresh air.'

I closed the journal and put it safely back in the box before locking it and put the box under my bed.

Carefully, I slid out of my bed and opened the balcony door and climbed up onto the roof.

I took out my phone and texted one of my old friends from the orphanage who was adopted the year after I arrived at the orphanage.

I heard that he goes to Phoenix Drop High.

Bold- ??? underlined- Y/N

Hey.

Y/N? You haven't texted me in forever!

Haha, yeah. Well, I was adopted today!

Really?! That's great!

Yup!

Why are you up this late?  🕛

The dream, again.

That sucks.  😵

Meet me at the park?  😛

We haven't spoken in person in YEARS!  😳

Maybe tomorrow. As you said, it's late.
I should probably get some sleep.

You need sleep, too.

Okay, night Y/N!  😝

G'night! 😴

I climbed off the roof and back into my room before putting in my earbuds and playing some music to help me have a dreamless sleep.

~~~

"Wake up, Y/N!" Someone said and I buried my face into my pillow.

"Go away!" I yawned.

"Okay, but your missing out on mom's French Toast!"

My eyes flew open and I shoved past Vylad and ran downstairs to the kitchen.

Hey, when it comes to me and French Toast, you wanna stay out of my way.

"Is there any coffee left?" I asked Zane and he held out his cup.

"Have some of mine." He said and continued reading the... newspaper?!

"Thanks." I said and took a sip of his coffee.

"Oh, and Y/N, we have school today. Go to mom's room and get your uniform." Zane said when I gave him his cup.

I just realized that Garroth, Vylad and Zane were wearing identical outfits.

So those are the boy uniforms...

I wonder what my uniform looks like?

I went to Zianna's room and grabbed my uniform before dashing back up into my room and changed into it.

I put a bow in my H/L H/C hair and put on light makeup.

And by light makeup, I mean that I put on a small amount of mascara and lip gloss.

I slid down the banister and sat at the table as Garte put a plate of French Toast in front of everyone.

"Dig in! School starts in half an hour, so hurry up and eat so I can get you munchkins to school!" Garte said and ruffled Zane's hair.

"Dad!" Zane groaned as he fixed his hair.

Garte chuckled and slowly ate his food.

~~~

"Can we walk to school?" I asked since we still have fifteen minutes until the first bell.

"Sure, but I'll get you guys from school. Okay?" Garte asked.

"Mhm!" I said and grabbed my galaxy backpack.

Time for my first day at Phoenix Drop High!!!!
