9:15 a.m Mountain Time

Gabe sat in his room, staring at the T.V., which was blaring it's bright LCD screen into the room, but Gabe wasn't paying attention to what was on the screen.

His hair was ruffed up and uncombed, he wore a white t-shirt, and some old pajama pants that should have gone into the trash a long time ago. He didn't care about how he looked when he slept, but he did care about what he dreamt.

He had a dream where he was in his room, the room was dark except for the moon shining through the window, he heard his mom scream, but he couldn't move, it felt like someone was pulling him down.

But nothing was there.

He saw Bob Diddlebock walk into his room, his face white, blood rushing down his face, a bad cut on his left cheek, and shadows under his eyes, except they were a rusty red color instead of black. He was holding his mother, who he had his hand over her mouth, it was like neither of them saw him. He kept screaming for his mom, but she didn't hear him.

He tried to close his eyes as Bob beat her, but he couldn't. It was impossible for him not to look.

He saw Bob sit on top of her, and smack her in the face, he kept trying to reach to his mother, but he couldn't move. He punched her, and kicked her, until she stopped screaming, and laid still.

He started to cry as he looked down at his mother, who was lifeless on the ground after Bob Diddlebock was done with her. Her eyes had turned from blue, to gray, and blood ran from her mouth. Her hair was lifeless, and she stared right at him, as Bob Diddlebock carried her dead body away,

and that was the end of his nightmare before, the sun peeked through his eyelids, and forced them to open.

The first night he had the dream, he woke up crying, and running into his parents room, laying beside the bed.

Amy had woken up from his cries, and sat on the floor with him, hugging him telling him she was fine, at four o'clock in the morning.

She felt like crying over her dreams too, but had to be strong for her son.

Bob Diddlebock might have been dead on earth, but he was not dead in their souls.

Toby had woken up early in the morning, before anyone else woke up, and walked carefully down the green steps into the living room to play with his blocks.

He sat down and laid his back against the turquoise couch that shared the same color as his eyes. He played with his blocks for a few hours, then stopped what he was doing, something in his head was telling him something.

Toby, go to mommy, now, she's looking for you, she needs you,

Toby stopped playing with his toys and walked up the steps, with one block in his hands, and walked down the dark hallway, to see his mother at the end, with a worried look on her face, holding his blanket.

"Hi, mommy!" he said smiling.

Amy turned around and smiled. She picked him up and kissed him on the cheek. "Toby! Where were you? I was looking for you! You weren't in your bed!" Toby frowned at the worry look in his mother's blue eyes.

"I was just downstairs playing with my blocks mommy, see!" he held up the block, that had a big "T" on it, "T for Toby! I'm sorry I scared you mama." his smile faded as he looked at his mother in her eyes, where the worry was quickly fading.

She smiled at him, then squeezed him gently, then kissed her little boy, that she was worried about losing.

"Mommy?" Toby asked, a questioned look on his face.

"Yes, Toby?" Amy replied, with a bright smile on her face.

"Why is that awful man, in your dreams, hurting us, and you?" Amy's smiled dropped quickly, she set down Toby, and bent down, to where her eyes, were even with his.

"How do you know that, Toby?" Amy looked into his eyes, her face was half full, with curiosity, then worry, then shocked.

"I was there, mommy. I couldn't move though, and my head hurt really bad, I looked right at you and you were crying, it looked like you were hurt, mommy, I tried to get you, but I couldn't do anything, I'm sorry mama. I didn't want him to hurt you, he said he could."

Tears watered up into Amy's eyes, that were full of horror.

She wasn't the only one Bob Diddlebock was hurting.

"Bob?"

Amy looked up at her husband, who was fixing her some tea. Worry filled her eyes. She was afraid what he was going to answer.

"Yes, sweetheart?" he turned around, and laid the glass gently on the wooden table, and sat down next to Amy.

"Have you ever had a dream, where Bob Diddlebock threatened to hurt me?" Amy looked into Bob's eyes, she could always tell when someone was lying, she had that with the sense of being a mother.

He looked at her, no lie in his eyes. "No, Amy, I've never had a dream like that, and I hope I never will." she could tell he wasn't lying, and sighed. Bob looked at the exhausted look on her face, and he could see the worry in her eyes.

"Honey, is something wrong?" Amy looked up at his face, and then immeadiatly looked down, she couldn't look into his green eyes, and tell him.

"Early this morning, I was talking to Toby, and he knew about my dream that I've been having. I haven't told anyone about it! He knew Bob Diddlebock was in it!" Amy saw Bob's expression change, he she knew what she was going to have to say next.

After Amy explained her dream to Bob, and he saw her eyes start to water, he scooted over and held her against him.

"Ames, it's okay, it's just a dream, Bob can't hurt you." Bob moved his arm up and down her back.

"I don't know Bob, Toby knew about my dream, I have never mentioned it before, and I don't talk in my sleep. He said that Bob came into his room, and said he would hurt me in my sleep, he would, and he can." her voice was high pitched, between her sobs.

Bob thought about it and didn't know what to say, he just sat there and rubbed her back.

Teddy sat in her bedroom, looking at a photo album from when she was little. Her mother had given her one when she moved out, she had also given one to P.J., she had one almost ready for Gabe, and she was still taking embarrassing pictures for Charlie and Toby's.

Teddy smiled at a family picture right after Gabe was born. Amy had been in the middle smiling as best as she could, P.J. had a cheesy smile on his face, because he was never into family portraits, Bob stood behind Amy smiling, and Teddy stared down at baby Gabe, who was in her mother's arms, with a frown on her face. She could still remember that day like it was yesterday,

October 1, 1998

"Teddy? Can you please smile for the camera?" Amy asked plead in her eyes as she looked down at the four year old, who violently shook her head no. She was stubborn, just like Amy, and that was for sure.

"Come on, Teddy! I'll make your bed for a week! I promise!" P.J. looked at his little sister, that still shook her head no.

"I'm not smiling until Gabe is gone!" Teddy stared down at the baby in Amy's arms, who was only eight days old.

The camera man laughed and signaled them all to smile, while Teddy had her hilarious glare at Gabe, Teddy laughed at that photo ever since she could remember seeing it.

Spencer walked into the room, and smiled to see Teddy looking at old pictures.

"I haven't looked at these pictures since before this photo album was even made!" she looked up at Spencer and smiled. Some of the pictures in there she had never even seen before.

She stared at a family photo, when it was just four of them, when Teddy was three and P.J. was five, it was for their christmas card, she looked at the bottom to see in gold fancy letters, "The Duncan's Wish You a Merry Christmas! Christmas, 1997" Teddy smiled, that was one of the first pictures that she had ever seen her parents have a real smile on their faces.

That picture was before everything had changed, her father was still young, and even though P.J. denied it, he did look a lot like him, he was skinny too, barely any gut, and young.

Amy was the same, she looked way yonger, her hair was blonder then, her eyes were bluer, and her bright smile lit up the whole picture.

Teddy smiled and looked up at Spencer. "That picture was taken in 97, I really don't remember anything before this, I can remember a faint memory of wearing that dress, and hugging dad, something like that, I bet P.J. would remember."

Then she brightly smiled at a picture of the day she was born. Her parents looked even younger, and so did her grandparents as Petunia held two year old P.J., who had no idea what was going on.

Spencer kissed her forehead, before leaving the room to let her look at the pictures, that she had really not had time to look at, until that moment.

Skylar held P.J.'s hand as they walked across eighteenth avenue and Broadway in downtown of Denver. It was a beautiful day, the sky was blue, and the blue sky reflected of all the building, and the clouds moved across the roof of the Wells Fargo building.

Skylar had always loved Denver, not just because of P.J., but she loved the mountains, and she loved the beautiful city itself, she wasn't much a fan of New York, and was totally excited when she moved back with P.J., she had missed that place so much.

Twenty minutes later they were being seated in a resturaunt ten stories above the street below, Skylar smiled at the beautiful view, she looked to her south, to the the Colorado Capitol Building, and looked west to the Rocky Mountains, which looked beautiful in the distance.

She couldn't have been happier that day, the family was eating dinner tonight at the Duncan's houses and she was sooo excited, she loved hanging out with Toby and Charlie, because they were so adorable, and , well she just loved them, that was all she could say!

The family sat around the table, which needed to have extra chairs, they were laughing as they told jokes and remembered things in the past.

P.J. had gotten and evil stare from Charlie when she found out she had been switched with another baby, over a girl that he liked! She was not happy about that news!

Toby had popped his head up when he heard he was born in an ice cream truck, and all he could say was, "I love ice cream!" before looking down at his plate and eating food again.

That was the best family night ever.

Teddy reached into her purse and grabbed her old video camera, the last time she filmed a video diary was about four months ago, when she had first moved into her apartment with Spencer, she walked out of the kitchen and smiled as she turned it on.

"Hey, Charlie, so I know it's been awhile since I filmed a video diary, but a lot of things have gone on, so give me a break! Anyway, so the whole family is over at the house eating dinner, and it's quite a show! I haven't seen everyone so happy, for a long time, for reasons you'll find out later on, anyway, check this out!"

Teddy quietly opened the divider a crack to video tape her family, who was laughing and somehow had started a food fight.

She filmed as Charlie flung some sloppy joe at P.J., who flung some back, but missed and ended up hitting Amy, who gave him an evil look, before throwing some of her casserole (which was not that good anyway) back at him. Soon, the whole table was crazy, and not one person was not covered with some kind of food. Teddy turned the camera around and smiled, "With a family as crazy as this, your gonna need some Good Luck, Charlie"

She smiled and walked back into the kitchen, regretting it immediatly when as soon as she walked through the door, she got hijacked with casserole, meatloaf, and sloppy joe.

It was all good though, because she got revenge!

Wasn't that a nice ending? Don't worry a lot more to come! Not to spoil anything but lets just say Toby is a special Duncan, ever wonder how he found out about Amy's dream? Well, you'll find out in the future chapters! Tell me what you guys think, until next time, Chow!3
