Her surroundings were dark.

The air felt cold, but it didn't bite at Ursa's pale skin as much as should, due to her panicked heart racing from the adrenaline fuelling her body.

She felt scared, but was unaware as to why she felt such a way. 

As she darted her attention to her surroundings, Ursa recognized the dark trees and snow on the ground. 

Suddenly, a deafening growl erupted from somewhere behind her. Ursa felt her blood run cold with fear and she began to run away.

'What's going on?! Where am I? Where are the others?!' Her thoughts were racing almost too fast to comprehend what was chasing after her. 

Then Ursa took notice of looked to be a blue flame a little too late, but once she ran through it,  the sound of someone's whispering voice filled her ears.

"Follow me, he may not be himself, but he'll hurt you if you keep running that way." It instructed, before Ursa's vision was covered with a light blue light.

Suddenly, Ursa opened her eyes and found herself back in the comfort of her bedroom. She sat up panting and in a sweat from the terror of her dream. With a quick glance at her hands, they emitted a bright pink glow that streamed in random patterns in her bedroom.

Before being able to comprehend what was happening, the sound of Pryce's signature knock was heard from her door before her older brother slammed open the door.

"Urs, are you okay? I thought I heard- holy shit!" Pryce exclaimed, then saw the pink swirls in his sister's bedroom.

"I..I uh- had a bad dream." Ursa answered, as her brother rushed to her bedside. "I think."

"What happened in it?" Pryce inquired, concerned for his sister's wellbeing. 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

"Hm, very interesting." Chandler muttered.

It was a few hours later in the morning when Ursa explained her dream to the rest of the occupants of the household. 

"And these were blue flames you said?" Marie questioned, ideas and theories sparking in her head.

"No, they were kinda..'wispy'?" Ursa answered.

Maria looked at Chandler, "You know what this means, right?" 

Chandler nodded his head in affirmation, "I do, indeed."

"What does it mean? And please use simple words, I know you're scientists, but we are still children." Pryce asked, as he shoved a slice of crispy bacon into his mouth with his fork.

"Dai Lee's group of kids didn't get recaptured and are out there in some forest. I can only assume that who you saw was the Will-o The Wisp reincarnate in your dream." Marie explained, her expression turning grim. 

"Then who was the monster that I could have been running from?" Ursa questioned.

"Most likely the wendigo reincarnate.." Chandler answered, his own expression turning grim.

"Well, lets go get them!' Pryce declared, clearly motivated. "Urs' dream was probably telling us that they're in danger and we can help them."

"Pryce, you have to understand-" Marie attempted to argue.

"Understand what? We were all in the lab together, maybe we'll be able to recognize each other and convince them to come home with us? Then we can teach them how to use their powers! What do you say Pheebs-" Pryce continued, then turned his head to ask for the eldest two to side with him, but Pryce stopped when he saw the conflicted and sad expressions of Phoebe and Seth. "Hey, why are you looking so down?"

"You may not remember much, Pryce, but that wendigo is dangerous. We cannot invite him within our walls, or he'd hurt everyone here." Chandler explained, looking at the two quietest members at the table.

"But she didn't do anything wrong.." Seth suddenly muttered, before sitting up and leaving the kitchen. 

"Seth." Phoebe tried to call him, but to no avail.

"I don't understand.." Ursa whispered, causing for a tense moment of silence in the kitchen. 

"I think," Phoebe began, attempting to explain the situation. "I think Seth feels guilty about what happened in the lab. You were just born and Pryce was too little to remember much, but Seth remembers so much. Will-o the Wisp was close to him, but I guess he feels bad that she couldn't have come home with us in the first place."

"Phoebe, why don't you remember much about the lab?" Ursa asked.

Phoebe sighed, but before she could confess, Chandler spoke up.

"I think that that's enough talk about the lab. You should focus on getting in your gear ready." 

The four looked at him in confusion.

"What?"

"Why?"

"Because, they deserve to have the opportunity to be save. Lord knows that this place is the safest for them to learn to control their powers. It isn't fair that they've lived in fear most of their lives anyways." Chandler explained, "In the meantime, I will search for the location of this forest and then we'll be off."

"You're confident that you'll be able to find the precise location within hours?" Marie remarked, as the kids rushed out of the kitchen.

"I have to be, if I want to keep them safe from the lab. Besides, Ursa is the only one who hasn't fought for her life like the others have, she needs to learn the reality of what she'll be up against soon enough."
