"What? You mean... she... talked to you?" Elliot asked frantically in a hushed tone. How could this happen? Could it be true that his dead sister is trying to return?

"Yeah, she told me you're her brother." Hazel said he continue to explain. "I don't know what she wanted from me.....or us, but I get the feeling you and mom are hiding something from me, Suri and Oliver. Is this true?" He asked.
Nadine who was close behind listening to Elliot and Hazel's conference, stepped in. She hoped Elliot wasn't gonna tell Hazel about her secret about being a human before. "Whoa, whoa!" She exclaims, cutting in. "What's going on here? You're not talking about......secrets are you?"
Hazel didn't fought back at his mother. He stared at her. "Errrr.....sorta." Nadine whispered in her husband's ear. "Ellie.....you didn't tell him did you?"

"No, I would never do that to you darling. He's asking about... *sigh*... my sister." Elliot whispered back in his wife's ear...

Hazel sat quietly wondering what his parents were whispering about. Nadine stare back at her son, then look back at her husband. She shrugged, not knowing what to say. What were they suppose to tell him now? Could Hazel, Oliver and Suri handle their parents' secrets?

Elliot waited for a reply from his wife, nothing. "Look, I gotta take care of this first..." he tolde her softly, nudging her along. He turned around to his son and looked him in the eye.
"Okay Hazel... the thing is, I used to have a big sister Named Suri. That's why your sister has that name, she was named after her auntie. And the reason I wasn't feeling good this morning was because I had a dream about my sister. I guess now she's trying to come back..." Elliot told him.
Now all he had to do was wait for his son's reaction...

Nadine left their meeting as Elliot explain to Hazel about his late sister. "Are they going to be okay mama?" Her daughter Suri asked. "I think so." She said.
"What's dad telling him?" Asked Oliver, he couldn't hear clear to what Elliot was telling his twin brother. "It's nothing." Nadine said shaking her head. She wonder how Hazel was going to handle the reaction to his father's story, but felt guilty that Suri and Oliver didn't know about it yet.
Hazel nodded trying to understand. What he didn't get was why was his aunt trying to come back now? Was she trying to tell them something? He didn't understand why his parents were mumbling about ear to ear earlier, but he got parts of his aunt's tale so far. "Whatever happened to her?" Hazel asked, wondering how his aunt died.

"Well... when I was a kid, we were playing during hunting season. A hunter tried to get me, but she saw and jumped in the way. She took the bullet for me." Elliot told his son remorsefully...

Hazel was shocked by the news of how his aunt died like that. First he learn that Boog's family was dead and so was his aunt. He thought further into his mind. Should he tell his brother and sister about this? Hazel had a lot of questions in mind, but he didn't wanted to be a pest for sounding like a pain. "Why didn't you tell me!?" Hazel cried. Suri and Oliver heard Hazel's last loud comment.
"Tell you what?" His big sis said stepping in. "Uhhh...nothing....it's nothing. It's a uhhh.....a little father-to-son thing, you wouldn't understand sis.....now move away....please!!!" Hazel said trying to push his sister away. But Suri fought back! "I wanna know! It's gotta be something important!!" Shouted Suri. "I told ya....it's none of your businesss!!!" Hazel yelled back.

As the kids were fighting, Boog watched on and soon couldn't take it, he intervened... "Hey, hey, hey... settle down." he said in an attempt to stop the fight...

"Hey it's her fault! She try to get in the way!!" Hazel said, pointing to Suri. "I did not!!" Suri said. "Whatever the big secret is, we should discuss it together like a real important family would."
Hazel didn't think his sister would handle the truth about what happen to their aunt before in the past, not sure if she be able to handle more about the fact that she was named after her aunt herself. Suri looked at Hazel, wanting to ask the important discussion they were having about. Hazel didn't want to give her the full story, so he gave her a few small details.
"Dad said someone in the family died.....by a hunter. I can't say why......." Hazel confessed to his sister. Suri was shocked by the comment news. "A hunter?! Ugh!! I hate humans! This prove to why humans are a bad danger to animals of all the...."
Nadine, hearing Suri's rants about the humans, stepped in and covers her daughter's mouth with her hoof. "Suri....calm down!" She cried. Suri pushes her mother's arm away from her mouth.
"Mom, you don't get it! Didn't you hear what Hazel said? A hunter killed someone in our family. If I ever come across a human I'll....I'll......" She says, getting angry. Normally, Suri rarely shows an angry side of her, but whenever there's danger around, she do anything to stop whatever the damage is. Suri stop when she notice Nadine's legs were shaking. "Mom, are you okay?" Suri asked.
Hearing Suri's angry comments about humans gave Nadine a nervous thought. If she or the twins ever found out about her deepest darkest secret about being a human, they would all be hating her. Nadine's body begin to shake, her arms trembling with fear.

"Your mother's fine, Suri. It must be the heat." Elliot lied to his daughter... "Look, you're right. If I told Hazel, then I should tell you about the secret too... but it'll be a shock." he said.

Nadine gasps hearing what Elliot was going to tell them. "DON'T YOU DARE!!!" She screamed at him. Oliver came in to see things were getting out of hand. "What's going on?" He asked.
"Mom why are you acting so strange?" Suri asked. "Suri, please understand! If we told you about our secret, you wouldn't handle it!!" Nadine said, she didn't want to get any further as it is.
"Ma...how bad can it be?" Said Hazel.
Nadine looks at Boog and Elliot, looking for an answer. Was it now a good time to tell them?

"Nadine, would ya calm down? I wasn't gonna tell them what you think I was!" Elliot cried, taking his wife in his arms. "Like I said, I'd never tell them that without your permission." He whispered...

"You....you weren't?" Said Nadine, looking embarassed. The purple markings on her cheeks glow in a slght dark red color, her face burning red like the hot boiling sun.
"Oh yeah! I'd say Ma is definality getting freak out!" Said Oliver. "Must be the heat." Hazel shrugged. Suri had no clue what was going on. She was right, her folks were acting weird strange ever since she noticed her father had waken up from that bad dream this morning. She didn't said another word, she was too bug about the thought flowing through her head, so many questions to ask, it was a pain.

"Of course I wouldn't... you think I'd do that to you?" Elliot reassured her. Boog leaned over to Elliot and put his mouth next to his ear... "Smooth move, cornflake." he whispered.
