"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU!?" Lynn's voice echoed with the howl of a wolf as she pressed the intruder of her dreams against a bamboo tree. "What's going on!? What is all this?! Tell me!" She demanded to know.

"...N-Ngh...!" The girl struggled to breath as Lynn was pressing her forearm against her throat.

"Why am I seeing all this...!" Lynn couldn't help but remember the image of her and her mother smiling while cooking in the past. "Who's showing me this...!?" Tears began to pour from her eyes as she remembered the times her and her father played at a river near their home. "WHY AM I BEING SHOWN THE LIFE THAT WAS ROBBED FROM ME!?!" Lynn screamed at the top of her lungs as she backed away from the girl.

"Gah...!" The girl yelled and went into a coughing fit while holding her throat that was red from the pressure being put on it.

"Why...?" The intruder looked up to see Lynn on her knees crying as she had the Tenseiga in her hands lowered to the ground as she wept. "I...I just wanted to live happily with my family...! We did nothing wrong...We were just minding our own business..." Lynn couldn't help but remember the night she found her family slaughtered in her living room. "Why did they take everything away from us...?!" She began to sob and cry on her knees as the intruder couldn't help but stay still, not knowing what to do.

"Why is she here?! She's not suppose to even know its a dream. How could she have known I was here?" The intruder thought in shock as she remembered being blown away after striking the edge of the dream. "What was that back there? What was that monster?!" She thought as those red eyes were forever seared into her memories.

Just then, the thunderous footsteps could be heard once more as the sound of trees snapping filled the air. The intruder looked around wondering where the beast was coming from, and after hearing a loud thud land next to her, she turned to see a tree fell down next to her. Hearing a deathly bellow and growl from behind her, the intrusive girl slowly lifted her head back up to see a horrifying sight behind her as she quickly scurried away and got a full view of it. Standing behind her was a sort of Dog or Wolf monster that she had no clue how to identify which it was.

"W-What...What..." The girl could only mutter in utter terror from staring at the beast that was stood before her in the dream.

"WHY!?" The intruder turned around to see Lynn pound her fist against the ground. "MOM WAS A GOOD PERSON!" She hit the ground again. "DAD MADE EVERYONE AROUND HIM SMILE!" She screamed at the top of her lungs while pounding her fist against the dirt once more. "MY LITTLE BROTHER WAS SO INNOCENT AND HADN'T KNOWN WHAT THE REST OF THE WORLD EVEN WAS LIKE!" Lynn was screaming at the top of her lungs as the dog demon began to walk towards her. "KIBUTSUJI...MUZAN...!" She raised the Tenseiga up with all her rage boiling out from within and remembered one last time a moment of happiness from her with her family. "THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!" Lynn cried out as she swung the sword down.
