Caroline found herself waking up from her spot on her daughter's bedroom floor she had her back up against their wall the two young girls having taken to sleeping together for comfort. Caroline hated herself she hadn't gotten the courage to tell the children that David was dead. William had guessed it by the way his mother had been acting, but as she knew the girls had not thought about it. "Oh David what happened to you", she said in her mind she could feel her tear begin again, trailing down the sides of her cheeks. Quickly wiping them away she stood up and walked over to the bed, "Alright baby girls time to get up", she said as she sat on the edge of the bed brushing strands of hair out out Anna's eyes it felt like not to long ago, Anna had been Moris's age. But now she was growing up into a gorgeous young woman, who would soon be going to proms and first dates. This made Caroline's heart break a girl her age should be worrying about if some boy thinks she's pretty of not, not whether she was going to survive the night being haunted. And her little Moris her surprise baby so small and innocent and her mother and father not even believing her. It tore her apart knowing she hadn't listened to Moris she had chalked it up to a little girls bad dreams, now she knew how terribly wrong she had been.

Will stood at the sink in the kitchen, he had put on a pot of coffee cause he knew his mother would need it, she had spent another night keeping watch over his sisters. And he knew that she didn't get very good sleep sitting on the floor. He knew he wasn't he looked down at his cast left arm, whatever the hell it was had picked him up like a doll and tossed him over the side banister of the stairs. If he had landed wrong he could have broke his neck but by the grace of God he landed on his arm. He heard footfalls coming down and looked up at the tired sad face of his mother. It hurt him to see her like this she had lost the man she loved, and her daughters kept being taken into an evil world slowly slipping away each time they crossed over. What he had failed to inform his mother was that when he was thrown from the stairs, he had also crossed into this world as well. But if he had to forfeit his life and soul for his sisters he would, what ever it was there was no way in hell he was going to let them take his baby sisters.

Caroline looked at her son Will as he sipped some coffee, she looked at the cast on his arm and it gave her goose flesh up and down her arms. "Morning mom", said Will with his half cocked smile, she smiled back "Mornin son", said Caroline. She walked up and poured herself a cup with a sigh, "I'm calling that Paranormal team Will after what happened to you and..." she paused for a moment and then she felt a strong hand on her shoulder. "Mom it'll be all right what ever it is I wont leave like dad did. I promise you they'll have to do something a little more drastic than throw me around to get rid of me. But mom you need to tell the girls about dad, the lounger you wait the harder it going to be and I'll be there with you the whole way alright", he said in his deep smooth voice. The voice of a strong, good young man that would make someone a wonderful husband and father some day. She turned and wrapped her arm around Will's neck, and sobbed into his shoulder, "Oh Will what are we going to do"?

He put his good arm around her shoulders his mom was so much shorter than him and so tiny compared to him. He remembered when she was the biggest person he knew and felt that nothing would stop her not even the boogie man. But now he knew that the boogie man was real and it wasn't a good idea to cross him. He helped his mother to sit at the table she was so fragile he didn't say a word just led her to the chair pulled it out and pushed down gently on her shoulder. As she sat he pushed the chair in sliding her up to the table. He then started breakfast, scrambled eggs toast and ham.
