Chase's mouth was wide open. Skye's face looked pale and looked like she's seen a ghost and then fainted. Everyone else came to her aide but when she woke up again. She had a bad headache.

Skye: Wow! I had the craziest dream that there was a mass breakout in Unity prison.

Zuma: Uh Skye? That wasn't a dweam.

Skye looked white again and the Everest caught her again.

Everest: I don't want you fainting again.

Skye: I just... How did... Why did... Is this..... WTF IS HAPPENING!

Everyone was startled by her. Skye was usually a sweet and soothing woman. She wasn't usually distressed.

Rocky: That's what we want to know too. Skye everything will be fine.

Skye: DON'T YOU TELL ME EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE!

Rocky went silent for a long time. Skye's eyes filled with tears again.

Skye: I'm so sorry Rocky. I should've never yelled at you.

Rocky: It's fine Skye. I know how you feel.

Rubble: We get it but why do you feel like this Skye. You're usually not like this.

Skye: Remember? He tried to take over both Sola and Demour. He tried to make me his wife by freezing Zuma and my aunt and threatening to kill Chase if I never dumped him! Plus Sweetie almost killed Chase and Aiden almost froze all of both kingdoms? I'm scared something like this will happen again. Especially with our kids around! They'll be targeted and maybe harmed. I don't want to risk this.

Chase kissed her softly.

Chase: Don't worry. We'll be okay. Law enforcement and guards will be notified. Everyone will know and will be on the lookout.

Marshall: Nobody will be alone. When I drop them off. Police will be at each of the schools in case.

Skye: Thank you guys! I could never be thankful enough!

Everest: It's no problem. We are all family here. No matter what.

Everyone else: Awwww!
------------------------------------------------------
Word spread around the kingdom and many were on the lookout. Reward for capture of each of the fugitives were $10,000 each. Aiden being $30,000. Security was tight everywhere they went. Heck even getting to their bedroom was tougher than ever.

Bianca: Ughhh! Why! Why can't I go to basketball tryouts dad!

Chase: Sorry Bia but with everything going around, I don't think we'll be able to make it.

Kristi: Dad? Will we be safe?

Chase looked down at his daughter and nodded but he wasn't even sure if he was even sure about anything.

Chase: Yes. Hopefully we all will.

Lily: And if this doesn't end? Will we die?

Another hard question to answer to a six year old girl who knows but is very difficult to explain. He kissed Lily's forehead and nodded.

Chase: Don't worry. We'll be fine.

He knew they will all not be fine.
------------------------------------------------------
At dinner, everyone gathered at the dining hall where Marshall, Everest, and Mary came for dinner.

Everest: Hey girls. Hey Gabe.

All 12: Everest!

Skye: Hey Marshall; Everest; Mary. Come eat.

Skye's voice was low but tried to force some cheer in it. Chase knew and but a hand on top of hers.

All ate in silence as maids came to pick up plates. When the last of the plates were picked up, Clara knew she had to ask.

Clara: Dad. Mom. I did some researching on the people who escaped and I couldn't find info on the one named Aiden Hoffmann. There's an unknown reason why he's in there. Chase, Skye, Everest and Marshall all looked at each other. Neither explained who was Hoffmann. They only explained that each guardian wouldn't accept each other but later did. They never told them about Aiden.

Chase: Um well Clara.... To that I don't know how to explain it but.....

Skye: It's complicated dear. Even the oldest ones shouldn't know.

Hayley: Know what mom?

Gabriel: Anything you want to tell us.

Emma: Yeah. You've been acting weird and like a ghost. You're scared or something.

All the adults looked at each other and sighed.

Mary: Mom? Dad? You know too?

Marshall and Everest nodded and they looked to Chase and Skye. Chase took in a large breath.

Chase: You guys. The way I met your mother is more complicated than what we've told you already.

Chase began to tell the truth. From Skye's 18 birthday to where Chase was shot and almost killed. Chase's faced whitened with every detail he had to say about Aiden Hoffmann like he hated him... Which he did. After the ending, everyone was just in complete silence.

Alana: I never knew most of that.

Felicity: That must've been horrible mom. To almost marry that monster.

Isabelle: I don't know what to say mom.

Skye: It's okay kiddos. It's okay. Like your dad said. Everything will be alright. I promise.
------------------------------------------------------
Inside Skye, when she went to her bedroom, she was full of fear. Fear of what happened 18 years ago. She still had some questions. How did he escape? When will be his next attack? Is it over? Will Chase make it? She began shake and sob uncontrollably like never before. Chase came into their bedroom and rushed to Skye's aid.

Chase: Skye? Skye!? You okay?

Skye: It's awful. Why? Why? Why? He's gonna come after us next! Why? After what happened 18 years ago? We'll not be fine! He knows everything Chase! I don't want you to die! I don't want anyone to die. If anyone has to die.... It will be me.

Chase: Skye! Don't you dare say anything like that! Do you think we care about you? We do! Especially me! Remember when you dumped me? I wanted to kill myself! Don't do this Skye!

Chase kissed her and then a few minutes later they stopped and Chase wiped tears away from her face.

Chase: I want you to live. Don't leave us Skye.

Skye: I'm still scared but I won't. I'll live.

They hugged but unknown, two people watched. One was Lily. Lily was in the hall, listening to everything that was happening. She sighed sadly and took off to tell her siblings what she heard.

The other was Aiden. He watched in disgust as he saw the two embrace and kiss. It was supposed to be him. Skye was only his! But maybe... Just maybe..... Not for very long.
------------------------------------------------------
Lily went into the big circular room and saw everyone just sitting there, talking and blabbing away. She huffed and said.

Lily: You guys won't believe what I saw in mommy and dad's room.

They stopped talking and all turned to pay attention to the youngest brunette.

Lily: I can't say everything that I saw was perfect but I saw Mommy on the floor crying and saying something like "I can't believe it and I can't take it" and Dad tries to comfort her but it wouldn't work much. They keep saying everything will be fine.

Alana: Wow Lily. I can't believe you did that.

Clara: I still can't believe what's happening.

Gabriel picked up Lily and put her on his lap.

Gabriel: Anything else? Like what mom and dad did?

Lily: No. Mommy just won't stop crying.

Kristi: I just want everything to be okay!

Jennifer: Me too!

Alana: Come on! Believe me. I promise everything will be just fine.

But none of the siblings words were true to them as others might have seen.
