Daphne didn’t even bother to turn off the engines. She hadn’t fastened her seatbelt, so she just had to open the door and get out. She left her door open and ran through the woods, in the direction of the lake.
Cas didn’t see her coming; he was still lying at the same spot, Alexia still lying with her head on his belly.
Zoey, however, did see her coming. She sat up. “One furious sister/wife coming our way”
Cas lifted his head and covered his eyes. “I’m not sure what you’re talking about”
“Oh, you’ll find out in one…two..three” Zoey counted as Daphne reached them.
“What are you doing?” she asked, breathing heavy.
“Enjoying the good weather?” Gerard suggested sarcastic. Zoey shot him an angry look.
“Daphne, please don’t get upset” Zoey started, but Daphne didn’t listen
“Why did you bring him here? You’re not supposed to bring him here. This place is cursed” Daphne screamed hysterical.
“Hey, can you calm down a bit?” Zoey said sharp. But instead of calming down Daphne punched Zoey in the face and Zoey fell on the ground. “Ahhh!” She carefully touched her nose.
“Mommy?” Alexia said scared. She had stood up as soon as Daphne had arrived and so had Cas.
“I can heal that for you” he offered.
“No. You are coming with me” Daphne ordered. She grabbed Cas’ arm and dragged him to her car. Except that there was no car.

It was five minutes to Midnight. Jeremy wandered around at Fell’s Church, glancing at his watch. He looked around to see if the nurse wasn’t there yet. He heard murmur behind him and turned around quickly.
“Don’t say I’m late” the nurse said when Jeremy opened his mouth. She looked around to see if no one could see them.
“I doubt anyone’s going to see this” Jeremy mumbled. The nurse sighed and put her hand in her pocket. She took out a cylinder box and gave it to Jeremy. Sonata it said. “It’s a new medicine. It only stays in your body for a short time, and it works if you have trouble falling asleep. It’s safe, but take only one. If something happens it’s on me” she said worried.
“No one would know you gave me the pills” Jeremy said. “I’m not going to betray you”
“Well, that’s a relief” the nurse said cynical.
“Hey, can I know your name?” Jeremy asked.
But the girl was already gone.
