Julie was staying at Diane's house while the rest of the group was out for the week.  Julie was in the spare bedroom. However, Diane was having night terrors about the day her family was hunted down and killed. Diane was five years old when this happened. She ended up having to fend on the streets for a while. She woke up, sweating with her heart beating rapidly. She went into the living room to clear her head.

Diane:Why can't you just leave me alone?

Julie:You okay, Mom?

Diane was startled.

Diane:Oh, sweetie. What are you doing up?

Julie:Came to check on you.

Diane:Was I really that loud?

Julie:I just want to make sure you're okay.

Diane:Sweetie...just go back to bed.

Julie knew that something was up.

Julie:I can tell something is wrong. I just want to help.

Diane knew she had to tell someone, and it was pretty clear that Julie wasn't going to back down.

Diane:Okay, I never told anyone this. *Sigh* When I was around five or six, my parents and I were kidnapped.

Julie:By who?

Diane:Some sick hunters. Wanted some "Entertainment". By some luck, I managed to escape them. But my folks...they...they...were killed by those monsters...

Diane began to tear up.

Diane:They took my parents from me because they were bored.  When you lost your mother, you were at least young enough not to remember that event. I had to live with this for years. I felt so alone...

Diane was full crying.

Diane:It's been years since that happened. I don't know why I can't just forget it.

Julie:Do you...want a hug?

Diane:No...I-I'm fine.

Julie:Pretty sure you do.

Diane:Don't you dare.

Julie:Here I come.

Diane tried pushing Julie away.

Diane:No! I don't need-

She was cut off by Julie's hug.

Julie:Trust me. I want to forget the things Terrance did to me. But I can't. However, the important thing is to tell people so that they can help you. The others helped me through after Terrance was locked up. We'll help you through this.

Diane hugged her tight, grateful to have a daughter like her in her life.

Diane: *Sniff* Thank you...Julie...
