Never Thought It Would Happen Prologue

It's night. Silence. Except for a horse's hoof running through the field. Then nothing. Minutes later, more horses, heading the same way than the first one.

We're not in a field anymore, but in a house. There, a woman with a bundle in her arms. Crying. Shouts are heard from outside. The woman starts running and left by the door that was behind the house. She runs the fastest she can.

Landscape changing. We are now in a forest. Near a waterfall to be more precise. The woman that was running a while ago was there, with a man, and the bundle that was in her arms before. The man is also crying, whispering to the woman. The woman gives the bundle to the man and says:

-Take care of her. I'll stay here. Step in that pond and you'll be transported to another world. Our son is already there, waiting for you.

-Why aren't you coming with me? We could forget the past and live a peaceful life.

-No, it is my destiny to stay here. Besides, the past always return in our face one way or another. I'll distract them. You go.

-I don't want to leave you. I love you too much for that.

-I know and I love you too. But think of the sake of your son and your daughter. If you stay here, they will be killed. They may not even survive the night if you don't leave.

-But you'll die! I don't want to lose you!

-You'll never lose me. Even if I die tonight or tommorow, I'll always stay in your heart. Just... tell good stories about me for her okay? She'll never had the chance to know her mother.

-I will.

Shouts are heard in the distance. The woman turns to the man and gave him a slight push towards the pond.

-Go. They are coming.

-I know. I love you, he said

-I love you two. Take care of them and yourself okay?

-Always. Goodbye my love.

He gave her one last kiss.

-Goodbye...

And he jumped in the pond.
