Transcript
 * Berna Manchester:It's okay. It was hard for me to be mad at you guys. You're not really a group of terrible people. You all were trying to be a supportive friend to Celia. Now that i thought about it, you were right. Celia really wasn't the best person. Didn't mean she deserved to die. I mean, i could sympathize with her in some places. We'd both lived a similar tragedy but with different reactions. Me, my mom, my dad's relatives, and my sister had shut dow. Celia became cruel and hateful. Neither was worse. We'd both suffered as a result. Life is funny like that. Everything and everyone's different, No one's perfect and it doesn't matter what you've been through. We're all in this. So why reject it? smiles Hey, Lyn and i are going out for some smoothies and chili fries with our cousins Ben, Gwen and Lucy after school, and i think it's be fun if you guys came along.

Berna Manchester:No! You don't know anything about me! You don't know what i've been through! You don't get viciously bullied and harassed at school because you are not a teenaged outcast! You weren't there when that car crash happened! You get perfect grades! You have lots of friends! You have an Hispanic boyfriend who 1) lives in an alternate dimension and works for an organization knowns as Providence, 2) have the ability to create a variety of machines on his body ,and 3) He can cure E.V.O.s! You can cast spells! You're the powerful one in the group! You're Bruce's favorite godchild! You're Sunny's favorite relative! You have muscles! You're the team leader! YOU'RE THE FIRST BORN SIBLING!

Lyn Manchester: (angrily shouted) Sis, That's enough!

Berna Manchester:(shouted) You just think i'm weak because i can't protect myself from Celia! But i can!

Lyn Manchester: (shouted)I'M TRYING TO PROTECT YOU, THAT'S WHAT OLDER SIBLINGS DO!

Berna Manchester:(shouted)WELL, I DON'T NEED PROTECTION...NOT FROM ANYONE AND ESPECIALLY NOT FROM THE LIKES OF YOU!

Lyn Manchester:I'm worried about you, Berna,

Berna ManchesterLYou're accusing me of being afraid, are you?

Lyn Manchester:Yes, i am. And that's exactly why Celia's gonna beat you. Because you're afraid of admitting you're afraid! You're just too stubborn to even realizing it.

Berna Manchester:(yells) SHUT UP!

Berna suddenly holds her hand out and uses telekinesis on Lyn, sending her flying across the room. She smashed into the wall and slumped down to the floor, The action made Berna covered her mouth in shock of what she did. Lyn, who hadn't been knocked out, looked at her the same way but she managed to get back on her feet as she brushed it off like it was nothing.

Berna Manchester:Lyn, I...I didn't meant to...

Lyn Manchester:(angrily) You know what?! Fine. If you don't want to face the truth and you wanna act like a stubborn brat?! Go ahead and get yourself killed then, be my guest!

Tears of anger ran down Berna's face.

Berna Manchester:I wish you weren't my sister!

Lyn stepped back in shock and Berna sobbed as she dashed towards the stairs.

Lyn Manchester:Berna, wait!

But Berna didn't listen as she ran up the stairs and into her room.

Lyn Manchester: Oh crap!

Dad, stay awake!

I don't think i'm going to make it, Berna.

You have to dad!

I love...you, your sister...and your mother... very much...

Berna Manchester:(screams) DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD!

Lyn Manchester:No one does Berna, No one does. At least you tried your best.

Berna Manchester:What happened while i was unconscious?

Lyn Manchester:Two days after you were in a coma, the news of Celia's passing had disturbed everyone at school. The lie was that she had a mental disorder, ran away from home and starved herself to death, somehow losing her body in the process. Celia's aunt, who practically raised her, had mentioned that Celia had disappeared for a month or so and before that, she was acting very strangely. But now she's gone. Only me, the others, Macy, her gang, and you knew the truth. And none of us wanted to tell. The police, along with Hermione's father, still wanted to investigate. They'd asked everyone a few questions, especially me, the others and Macy's group. Macy, her group, me and the others had been having therapy and it's not fun. Even though they've been bullying you for so long, i couldn't help but

Berna Manchester:So Lyn, what are you doing in here?

Lyn Manchester:I decided to be on watch.

Berna Manchester:Lyn?

Lyn Manchester:I'm so sorry. I knew what Celia wanted to do I knew about her intentions...but i failed to protect you. I thought i lost you. I'm afraid...that if i let you out of my sight, or if i let you go, i'll never see you again and i'll never forgive myself.

Berna Manchester:No, i'm the only who should be sorry. I didn't mean to make you worry. It's not your fault. I'm here because of you and the others. Thank you for saving me.

Lyn Manchester:I should...let you get back to sleep.

Berna Manchester:Lyn. Good night.

Lyn smiled and opened the door.

Lyn Manchester:Good night. (turned the light off and closed the door behind her)

Lyn Manchester:But...Did dad intentionally...get into that vehicle crash with Celia's mom?

Beatrix Manchester:No, but her and Celia's mother had...a rough history. They had a big fight on Halloween, which is why your father hates it so much. But it's only a coincidence they crashed into each other. Same with Berna.
