Jesse looks at Lukas before crossing her arms, "..." Lukas pulls Jesse into the other room. Once he closes the door, he lets out a troubling sigh. "Lukas... I won't be mad. I'll try not to be, but you can trust me, you know that, right?" Lukas looks at his wife then he sits down. He looks at the photo and sighs, "I... I had a younger brother and a younger sister. Adam and Nikki. They were twins..." Lukas puts his head in his hand and tears up. He could feel the tears rolling down his face. Jesse sits next to him. "..." She says nothing and Lukas looks at her, "At least you're not mad." He sniffs and Jesse looks at him, "I'm not but... we've been married for five years. How could you hide this from me?" Lukas looks at Jesse before moving away, "..." He sighs and Jesse closes her eyes, "Lukas, I need to tell you s—" "I'm not the only one to hide secrets, little miss full of secrets." Lukas growls under his breathe. "The only secret I ever hid from you was Erik!" Jesse stands up and gasps. "That's the only secret I know of." Lukas stands up as well. "Are we really going to fight right now? At a time like this?" She questioned her husband, staring deep into his light blue eyes. "You were the one who decided to be nosy and go through MY bag without MY permission! I should have every right to pick a fight with you!" "I just wanted to know what the picture was, Lukas! That's all!" She growled at him. "Well, guess what, Mrs. Nosy? You found out! You found out that I have two siblings, who are dead!" ...the room went dead silent after Lukas blurted that out. Having that last few words slip out of his mouth made Jesse's face turn pale. "...I-I... Lukas, I didn't—" "Leave me alone." That's all he said before grabbing the picture and walking out of the room, slamming the door behind him.

Jesse stands alone, regretting confronting her husband about the picture. She could feel herself starting to get sad. She falls to her knees and lets the tears roll down her cheeks. She stares at the floor and her bangs fall into her face. As she starts to cry harder, a big portion of her bangs start to turn blonde. She freezes up and wipes her tears. She wanted to scream and yell and break everything in her sight. She takes a deep breathe to calm herself down. In and out... in and out... She lets out a shaky sigh before saying something she never thought she would say, "Lu... Mom, I don't know where you are but... I hope you learned from what happened and that you are good... and alright... I miss you." Jesse opens her eyes and grabs onto her locket. She hears the door open and she says nothing. She hears footsteps behind her, "...I'm sorry..." Jesse mutters, thinking it is her husband. "Mommy?" Elliot says and he walks in. "Mommy is fine." Jesse sniffs as she wipes her tears away. Elliot walks in front of his mother and sits on his knees. He looks at her hair before grinning. "What?" Jesse sniffs. "You look like me, mommy!" Elliot smiles and Jesse giggles a little, "Yeah, I guess I do. Don't I?" Jesse slowly stands up and looks at the door Lukas had went through. "Mommy, are you okay?" Elliot grabs onto Jesse's hand and Jesse nods, "I... I will be... I promise." She looks down at Elliot and smiles then they both walk into the next room.

While Jesse walks through the room her family is in, Elliot walks to the exit of the old night palace. Jesse looks at Lukas and he looks away. She goes over and softly pecks his cheek, "I'm sorry..." She whispers before going outside. When she makes it outside, Jesse starts to look around for her son. "Elliot?" She looks around before spotting him climb a very tall tree. "Oh, you little goof ball." She giggles before running over and climbing after him. Elliot sits on a fat branch and Jesse sits next to him. "We all heard you fighting..." Elliot sighs. "...I'm sorry baby boy. I didn't want you guys to hear us fight." Jesse looks down and Elliot looks at her, "You and daddy will be okay." He smiles. "I know we will. We're just under a lot of stress." Elliot looks at his mother before leaning against her. Jesse holds onto her son and they both close their eyes.

"Jesse?" Lukas calls out as he walks outside. "Jesse, are you out here?" Jesse opens her eyes and looks at the ground. She could hear Lukas loud and clear so she starts to climb down but then she hears a set of foot steps. "Ah, the Night Kingdom. I have some fond memories here." A deep voice says. Jesse instantly recognizes it. "...Herobrine..." She says under her breathe then she gets back on the branch. She had to find a way to protect her husband without getting any of them killed. She knew that if she could hear Lukas loud and clear, there was a change Herobrine could too. She tries to think of ways to help him. Elliot looks at Jesse before elbowing her and she looks at him. He points at his arm and she sees the sun sun in shining on his pale skin. She taps her chin before pulling her golden hair clip out of her hair. "Please work..." She whispers then she puts the clip in the sun. The sun reflects off the clip and Jesse lets out a soft sigh of relief. Now was the hard part. Getting Lukas' attention without getting Herobrines attention as well.
