When I get back, Hazel, Emma, and Arlo are all surprised to see that I'm alone. But I don't want to talk. In fact, it's been two days since I last spoke to anyone, as it has been two days since that night.
Maybe I should've really listened to Barbas. Maybe if I had, we wouldn't be in this situation. Maybe if I'd been smarter about this, he'd be okay.
My heart sinks again. I can't keep doing this whole thing where I keep failing my friends. I can't let them all be taken from me. I close my eyes and take a deep breath to center myself, and then I press on.
There's a knock on my door, one day as I sit there and meditate and try to stay calm. My mind is a storming sea. My heart a battlefield.
I open the door and see Hazel standing there. "Hey, how are things?"
"It's all good," I lie. "Whats up?"
She looks at me like she wants to say something, but ultimately, she decides against it. She beckons me to follow her and I do, we walk down the hall and down the stairs and into the kitchen of the house. I feel like a ghost as I walk. Moving about the place like a spector of some sort.
Arlo looks at me as we walk in, and I see that there's no sign of Emma. She's just not here? I sit down at the table and look at the others.
"I assume you're curious about why we brought you down here," says Arlo. I nod, but I don't say anything. She continues on.
"Emma is missing. We can't find her anywhere. So we were thinking that maybe we should have you help us."
"What can I do that you haven't done?"
They look at each other. "We ... heard about your powers. How they've changed. How they seem to act now is so different than before, and I think it could be because Dylan's gone."
I take a deep breath and sigh. "Is this about my powers?"
"No, this is about how Emma is missing. Maybe your powers are connected to their disappearances," Hazel says.
"Or maybe its the breaking of the Imprint bond that has done this to me," I say. "He and I were linked. It is gone now and I don't know I should be doing anymore. Damien has an idea as to where Dylan is and he won't tell me. I need to get them back, I know, but I honestly don't know how I will do that right now."
"Maybe we can help you," says Arlo. "If we could just get to the place where Dylan could be, we could possibly have you realize something cool like the bond isn't broken or something."
I take a deep breath again and look at them. "You two really want to fight Damien? If it comes down to it, will you be able to?"
"Will you?" Arlo asks.
I glare at her. "Of course. He's not Dylan, he's the one who's hurting him."
"Okay," she says.
I stand up and look at the two of them. "Well, let's summon Barbas and ask to go back to Qinsinara."
