"Where's the amulet?" a large, middle-aged, harsh-looking man demanded of a young, beautiful girl.
"I don't know," the girl said, shrugging her shoulders helplessly.
The man slammed his hand on the table angrily. "Guys aren't attracted to girls who play stupid, Polly, I don't care what your mother said to you."
The girl stood up defiantly. "My name is Molly," she said evenly, "And don't talk about my mother."
The man smiled at this display of attitude coming from such a small, weak-looking thing. He guessed the girl to be somewhere in her teens, but she looked to be about eleven or twelve. "Really, Molly," he said laughing, "what do you think you're going to do about it? Run away?"
"Maybe." she said cooly.
"You'll do no such thing. You've got nowhere else to go, Molly. You don't think your mother would want you out on the street, do you?"
Molly said nothing, just stared at him, her expression cold. This seemed to make him angrier than the challengin, haughty tone she'd used with him before.
"Stop acting like a child, Molly." he ordered.
"I am a child!" she screamed, then, before he could stop her, she ran out of the house. He got up to chase her, but he was easily outrun. Molly didn't stop until she was deep into the woods across the street. From there, she could only barely see the lights from the house...

"Piper. Piper, wake up."
Piper gasped, then awoke to find her husband, Leo, standing over her. "Leo, what's wrong?"
"I was about to ask you the same thing." he said. "Baby, you were crying in your sleep."
Piper rubbed her eyes, and sure enough, found that her cheek was wet. She nearly started crying again, when the memory of her dream came back to her. "I... I had that nightmare again." she choked out. "The one with that girl. This guy was yelling at her, and he was talking about her mother, and then she ran away..."
"Honey, it was just a dream." Leo said, trying to comfort his wife.
"Right." she said. "You're right. Let's go back to sleep, baby, it's late."
