It was a cold night in the town of South Park, a ten year old girl was asleep in her bed, having pleasant dreams.
But she was awoken by the sound of the front door.
Haley sat up and stood, walking down the stairs to the living room and to the front door.
"Who in luna's name could be knocking at this hour?" Haley said.
Haley answered the door and found an 8 year old girl standing. Haley however, right away knew who it was.
"Karen? What's going on? Is something wrong?" Haley said, getting onto her knees to be at Karen's level.
"I-I-I had a n-n-nightmare an-and Big brother wasn't home and Guardian Angel never came to me." Karen said.
"Well, what are you doing standing out here in the cold? Get in here, before you turn into a popsicle!" Haley said, pulling the young girl inside.
"Thank you." Karen said.
"Come on. You can stay with me tonight." Haley said, leading Karen to her bedroom and allowing Karen to lay next to her.
"Goodnight Karen, sweet dreams." Haley said as she closed her eyes.
Karen tried to close her eyes but her nightmare made her fear going back to sleep.
Haley could sense Karen was still awake and opened her eyes again.
"Karen, you're still scared aren't you?" She asked.
Karen nodded, Haley pulled Karen close and into her embrace to try and soothe the fearful child.
"Shhh, it's okay. I'm here." Haley cooed.
Haley then got an idea.
"Hush now, quiet now,
It's time to lay your sleepy head,
Hush now, quiet now
It's time to go to bed."
Haley looked to Karen and saw that she had laid her head onto the pillow and closed her eyes with a smile on her face.
Haley leaned forward and placed a kiss on Karen's forehead.
"Goodnight Kare-bare. Sweet dreams."
