Hildur Guðnadóttir - Rennur Upp
Aaron still hasn't made best friends with Lenore, like he wants to do, so he invites her over for a visit once more.
Billy was at the dining table doing his homework when a loud pounding noise was heard from the door behind him.
"Open the door!" an angry voice shouted. The pounding was heard again. "Open the goddamn door! I know you're in there!"
"Who is that, mommy?" Isaac asked. Natalie recognized the shouting voice. She was here. Of course she was here. "Don't open the door, Isaac!" Natalie said. "Don't open the door!"
Aaron had just been hushed out of the bathroom by Ingun, because she needed to use the toilet. He had heard the pounding, too, and could tell that Natalie was upset about something. "Whats going on mom?" he asked.
Natalie: Stay away from the door! Don't open it!
Another round of pounding was heard. "Open the door, or I'll kick it in!" the voice from the outside shouted.
Natalie: She's here! Kids, go upstairs!
Isaac: Why mom? Whos there? What's happening!?
Aaron: But Lenore is co..
Natalie: Go upstairs! NOW!
A kick was heard, and the front door slammed open just as Billy was making it up the stairs. "I know you're in there!" the voice shouted.
Bianka ran through the door straight up to Natalie. "Where is Ingun? Where are you keeping her!?" she yelled
Natalie: Ingun is not here! Get out of my house!
Bianka: I'm not leaving without my daughter! Where is she!?
Natalie: She's not here! GET OUT!
Ingun heard them shouting at each other and thought it was best to not leave the bathroom for a while..
Bianka: Don't lie to me! I know she's in here!
While this was going on, poor Lenore had arrived and stood outside listening to the shouting and arguing from inside. She didn't know what the fighting was all about, and where was Aaron?
Bianka: She's upstairs, isn't she?
Bianka turned around to go up the stairs.
Natalie: No, she is not! Don't you dare go up there!!
Natalie couldn't have that monster go upstairs to her children.. Now it was all or nothing!
But Bianka fought back hard this time...
Natalie: Oww...
Bianka: Where is Ingun?
Natalie: She is not here.. get out of my house...
Bianka: I'm not leaving without Ingun! She belongs to me!
Ragnar: Hey! What's going on in here?
Ragnar, Isaac and Aarons father (and also their neighbour) had just returned home from going to the movies with Ina, when he saw the front door open and heard the commotion from inside.
Bianka: Thats none of your business! This is a family affair!
Ragnar: I don't think Natalie wants you around here.
Bianka: Who are you to say, you damn no-show!
Ragnar: Now you watch it! I suggest you take it easy and go home..
Bianka: I'm not leaving without my daughter, Ingun. I know she's in here!
Natalie: Ingun is not here, and even if she was, she wouldn't be coming with you! Get out of my house, or I'm calling the police!
Bianka: The police? Hah! What are they going to do! I am your mother!
Natalie: You. Are. Not. My. Mother. Now, get the fuck out of my house!
Bianka: I'm not leaving!
Natalie: You are SO leaving!
Bianka: I'm not done here, Natalie! I'll be coming back for Ingun, and I won't give up!
Natalie: Just get out...
Natalie made sure to follow Bianka to the door, ready to give her a hard push at any moment if she stopped or turned around... Lenore was no longer outside. She had ran home once things got physical inside. She didn't tell her father what she had seen and heard at Natalies house until after a couple of days.
Ragnar: Whew! That was.. intense! Natalie... what the devil is going on here!?
Natalie explained everything to Ragnar, about the how she picked up Ingun from her moms house, and the visits to the doctors office. What she didn't explain, was everything related to Elisa, the demons and the spellcasting. Ingun heard that her mom had left, and hesitantly made it out of the bathroom. Natalie went up to the kids, and told them it was safe now and that they could come downstairs.
Isaac: I didn't know grandma was so mean
Aaron: I hope she never comes back here!
Natalie: Neither do I, Aaron.
Billy: We should put her in jail!
Natalie: Yeah, maybe we should...
Natalie went downstairs again, to where Ragnar was standing.
Ragnar: Its getting late, and I think its time for me to go home. Ina was quite worried when she heard you fighting inside...
Ragnar: ....but Natalie, if you get in trouble with your mom again, please don't hesitate to give me a call.. and tell the kids that they can come over to our place anytime they want! Me and Ina would love to have some kids around the house!
Natalie: Oh, yeah.. sure, thanks Ragnar. I will tell them...
Ragnar: Good to hear. Good night, Natalie..
Natalie: G-good night...
Ingun was still in the bathroom looking nervously out the window. She had seen her mom leave just that way, but wasn't sure yet if she would suddenly double back.
As Ragnar walked out the door, Natalie went into the bathroom and gave her sister a good, solid hug.
Natalie: Its alright now, sister. She's gone now. She's gone now..
Now that things had returned to normal, Aaron walked outside to sleep in the treehouse again. Its not that he didn't like his bedroom, but he liked the treehouse more where he could be alone. Especially now that he had to share a bedroom with both Billy and Ingun.
Billy on the other hand, enjoyed his newfound auntie Inguns company, so he went into the bathroom to ask her once more to read him a bedtime story.
Isaac was upstairs being a strong and powerful dinosaur. Raawr, rawwr. No bad and evil grandmother should ever be able to lay her hands on him or his mother. He would sink his claws into her if she tried, that was for sure.
Ingun read the bedtime story to Billy, and everything seemed peaceful...
Natalie wasn't feeling so good right now, though, as the adrenaline was about to leave her body. What if her mother came back? What if she didn't only take Ingun, but took her kids as well? Natalie was very distressed.
She hoped that her sister would toughen up, and that together they could defeat their mom once and for all, so that she would never come back! Heck, Natalie didn't even care if her mom would wind up dead for all the pain she had caused....
The kids seemed to warm up pretty good to Ingun, and they really enjoyed her reading for them. Isaac also wanted a bedtime story, and Ingun was more than happy to read for him as well.
Natalie didn't feel to bad about the kids occupying her bed, as she could use the rocking chair to rest and calm her nerves for the night.
With Billy in Natalies bed, and Aaron in the treehouse, Ingun got the room with the bunk bed upstairs all to herself for this night.
