Harper punched Mr. Guilty in the face, knocking him out.
"Alright! Let's take him to jail."
Harper said as the others cuffed the criminals.
"Hey Ray? What does this weapon do?"
Bose asked. He accidentally pulled the trigger, knocking Harper out.
"Bose! That was the Dream State Device! We need to get Harper home. Miles! Get us back now!"
Ray yelled.
"On it!"
Miles yelled. He teleported them back, with Harpers limp body in Rays arm.
"What happened to Harper?!"
Schwoz asked.
"Dream State Device."
"Got it."
Chapa held Harper in her arms. Then, Ray picked her up and placed her in a chair. Schwoz pulled up a screen and they all gathered around.
"You see, I need to check out her dream first, and if it is too dangerous, then I don't really know."
Ray shook his head.
"Oh no. Harper only dreams danger."
"Just watch the screen."
Schwoz demanded.

Harper walked down the white sanded beach. She had her curly hair down, in a light pink dress. Harper looked confuse. A woman with chocolate brown hair, and a coral pink summer dress.
"Mom?"
The woman turned around and smiled.
"Harper! My princess!"
Harper broke down into tears. Harper ran straight towards the woman. The woman opened her arms, accepting Harpers embrace.
"M-M-ama!"
Harper cried. The woman gently stroked Harpers hair.
"I got you my princess. Look behind you."
Harpers head swung around, towards a tall man. He had black cargo shorts on, and a blue polo. Even more tears ran down Harpers cheeks.
"DADDY!"
Harper screeched.
She ran into the mans arms.
"Hey my little princess."
The man smiled as he brushed hair behind Harpers ear
"I got you. Don't worry."
The lady walked over and crouched next to her daughter and husband.
.+**+.
Ray had a small tear rub down his face. Nobody had anything to say.
"She's dreaming about her parents."
Mika said quietly.
"We have to let this go on for a bit longer. She needs this."
Ray said. Everyone agreed.
.+**+.
Harper sat in the mans lap balling. He ran his fingers through her hair, when she felt three hands on her back.
"Bailey? Jordon? Sawyer?"
The three boys smiled as they hugged their little sister. Harper held onto them tightly. She knew that if she let go, they would disappear.
"I got you my princess. We're all together now."
The man calmly replied. Harper nodded resting her head on his shoulder. The man took in a deep breath, and Harper knew what came next.
The old wind blows, the trees grow old,
Tell me how, the story goes,
Past the rivers, through the woods,
Far beyond, where we walk,
Through the Nile, over hills,
Through deep valleys, unknown,
Tell me what this means to you,
All I know, is I love you.
Princesses don't cry,
They only survive,
I hold you closer,
Never put me farther.
I know you better,
I keep you in my heart,
Never turn away from away from me,
You are my sweetheart.
Harper closed her eyes and smiled.
"I miss you papa."
"It's okay princess. Papas here."
.+**+.
"She learned to sing from her Dad?"
Chap asked.
"Parker always sang to her."
Miles looked over.
"Who's Parker?"
Ray laughed.
"Harpers Dad."
"The screens not black anymore! Shut up!"
Mika said.
.+**+.
Harper sat in her fathers lap, enjoying herself.
"I wish Chapa was here. You guys would love her as much as I do."
Harper didn't know that what she said caused Chapa to break down.
"Who's Chapa?"
Bailey asked.
"Is she your girl friend? Or is she your girlfriend?"
Jordan asked.
"She my girlfriend. I love her so much. She's so sweet."
Parker smiled.
"My little girls all grown up."
Harper laughed as Sawyer shook his head in disapproval.
"I knew she would get a partner before Bailey. Somehow, this little nut is a chic magnet. Gets all the attention. Bailey is so much less appealing."
The whole family started laughing, and Bailey slapped Sawyer. Riley smiled.
"So how long have you girls been a thing?"
Harper smiled as her brothers mocked her.
"Umm. For a little while now. We became a thing when we went on a vacation to Hawaii."
Parker laughed.
"What's with the ring? Did she like it so she put a ring on it?"
.+**+.
Everyone started cracking up, as Chapas face turned red.
"Okay! I'm going in there."
Chapa said quickly as everyone else snickered. Chapa relaxed in the chair.
"Just cause her a lot of emotional pain. Lie to her horribly. She probably will be emotional for the next few days, but we need to get out. Once you hurt her enough, I'll bring you out."
Chapa nodded as she held Harpers hand. Schwoz put Chapa asleep.
.+**+.
Harper smiled as she enjoyed listening to her family. Then she heard a groan from something behind her. Harper stood up, and saw Chapa. She stood looking around.
"Chapa! Chapa!"
Chapa ran over to Harper and looked over the girl. 'She looks so beautiful.' Chapa thought. Harper hugged Chapa, but Chapa gave her a little push off.
"Harper? Who is this?"
Riley asked.
"This is Chapa!"
Harper said happy.
"Nice to meet you."
Parker said.
"Nice to meet you too, can I steel Harper for a minute?"
They all nodded. Chapa pulled Harper far away, into the trees. Chapa pulled Harper behind a tree and frowned.
"What's wrong lo-"
Harper began before Chapa slapped her. Harper looked up in pure fear.
"I hate you! You are the worst girlfriend ever! Have I ever told you that?! And stop calling me those cheesy nicknames! They suck! Nobody loves you! You're not loved by anyone! It's all just a pity party they put on so you don't feel unwanted when you really are! Nobody wants you on the team. Your just an excuse! You should have died in that fire in Dystopia you little freak!"
Chapa said cold heartedly. Everyone that was awake was astonished. Everyone hoped that it was a big, fat, lie. Harper stood frozen. Tears swelled up in her eyes. Tears rolled down Harpers cheeks. Harper couldn't say anything. Schwoz saw that her emotional pain levels were going through the roof. Schwoz instantly pulled out Chapa. When Chapa was pulled out, Harper broke down into tears crying.
.+**+.
Chapa woke up and looked over to Harper to see her cry in her sleep.
"Chapa. You went hardcore on the poor kid. Good job."
Ray said. Chapa nodded as she looked back at Harper. Instantly, she shot up, and started to ball her eyes out.
Harper reached over to Ray, who pulled her into a hug.
"M-mama! P-papa! What happened?!"
She cried. Ray tucked a strand of hair behind Harpers ear.
"It's okay Harper. I got you."
Harper cried into Rays chest as he held her tightly.
"T-T-They were right there! Papa was there! Mama was too! And Bailey, and Jordan, and Sawyer! I saw them!"
Harper cried out. Nobody could look at Harper. They all felt so bad. Ray held Harper and calmed her down.
"It's all okay.
Chapa sat next to Harper and held her hand.
"I'm so glad your okay!"
Chapa said as she rested her head on Harpers shoulder.
"B-But you said t-that you hated me."
Chapa shook her head.
"It was all just a bad dream. I promise you. I didn't wanna do that to you. I had to say that stuff so I could get you out."
Harper looked down at her lap.
"So you do love me?"
Chapa smiled and nodded.
"But that means I didn't actually see Mama and Papa."
Everyone shook their heads. Harper smiled.
"It just felt so real."
They all looked down. Chapa snuggled closely to Harper, who gladly accepted her embrace.
"Okay you guys should head home."
Ray announced. Everyone said goodbye and left.
"Dad?"
Ray turned around.
"Yeah Harp?"
Harper looked down at her feet embarrassed.
"Can I sleep with you tonight?"
Ray smiled.
"Of course."
