Cassie never found out who caused the fire and how she was the only one get out. Cassie has being suffering from headaches and blackouts for nine years but in the last six months they have become worse. This is because she has Multiple personality disorder (MPD), meaning she has two personalities. Cassandra and Ivy. After her family died Cassie was send to a psychiatrist, DR L. Bentley, to help her cope. They soon find out that Cassie is suffering from more than just depression. After Cassie moved in with Michael she decided to tell him about her disorder, but refuses to believe anything is wrong with her, until he meets Ivy for the first time.

Ivy is Cassie's other personality, unlike Cassie she is is outgoing and loud but loses her temper very easily, her emotions go from one extreme to another. Ivy first appeared when Cassie was nine, not long after Cassie witnessed her pregnant teacher fall down the stairs and die. To begin with Ivy didn't make many appearances, but in the last six months has been appearing more often as she is tired of been oppressed. Ivy was the one who killed Cassie's parents and brother after she lost her temper during a fight with them.
