Alethea's POV:

We entered the gates of Alfea, on our way back to our dorm. My eyes were still wide, feeling on edge because of the lingering suspense of the horror movie I just watched with my friends.

"Well, that was intense huh?" I nudged Stella's side, a nervous smile on my face.

Stella shivered, nodding in agreement. "That was such a freaky movie!"

"At least it had a happy ending." Tecna pointed out, and that made me feel a little bit more at ease although the feeling still lingered.

"Yeah," A grin playing on Bloom's face, showing her white teeth and I couldn't help but smile at my energetic friend. "Nothing brings a family together like having to fight an evil demon, a horde of zombies, run from explosions, and survive a massive tidal wave!"

"And yet my parents are still separated." Stella giggled but we all know it was forced, and my smile soon fell. I saw with my own eyes how fractured Stella's family is, even after they separated they weren't on good terms. I remember this one time when Stella planned this picnic, in hopes of bringing her parents back together, but it only went downhill from there. Stella's coping mechanism since then was just covering it with jokes.

"That movie scared me." Flora huffed as we entered the school building, now walking through the halls on our way to our dorm. "Can we please stop talking about it?"

"Hey, remember that scene when she was locked in the chamber with that slimy ghost thing?" Bloom despite what Flora said, completely disregarded her, asked.

"Bloom!" Flora snapped, and Bloom quickly apologized for bringing up the movie again.

"Hold on!" Tecna suddenly called out, grabbing our attention and sensing our confusion she expanded on that. "Did anyone hear that growling sound?"

"It was probably Kiko's stomach." Bloom laughed while gesturing to Kiko who looked like he would vomit any second and even I couldn't help but shiver but soon brushed it off, all of us were perpetually on edge after having watched the scary movie. "He scarfed down all those gummy bugs."

"Suuure, it was Kiko who ate all the candy." Musa teased her and Bloom laughed at that.

"It was!" Bloom protested as we finally neared our dorm.

"I'm off." I yawned and opened the door, Stella following behind me. "Goodnight girls."

"Night, darlings." Stella smiled as we entered our bedroom. We were all tired, so we changed and then fell asleep immediately, the exhaustion catching up to us. The moon cast its silverly glow in the room as I drifted into an uneasy sleep, unaware of the horrors that awaited me in the realm of dreams.
