A/N: It's all coming together finally! I hope you are enjoying the story.

They almost stormed into Hyde's house. Janice wasn't home but John was. He was startled at the army running into the house. "What?? Hyde?"

"Dad. I need to know what is going on. Now." Hyde demanded. The whole group followed Hyde into the house.

"Sir. The Abraxas charm. You have it, yes?" Ryker asked. Soren was ready to take someone out. He was armed with everything. Nora thought he looked hot.

"What...I have no idea what you are talking about and I'm going to have to ask you to leave!" John was upset. He had to call Janice.

"Where is Mom?" Hyde asked.

"Church. Why?" John wasn't sure where she was but she wasn't at church. He knew that. It was none of Hyde's business.

"Get her here now. We need to have a family meeting. I think you are in trouble." Hyde began.

Soren had a bad feeling. "You already know, huh?"

John sighed.

"Sir. You need to tell us what is going on. Now." Soren stated. "Call your wife."

Janice barely got through the door and Hyde was on her. "What did you do?" He was sure they were responsible for Willem's disappearance.

"Sit. You don't know what's going on, Hyde. We didn't know how to tell you!" Janice was in tears as she was led to the living room. She stopped. The Lloyd brothers were there. Maybe he did know. "Nora?" She was holding one of the brother's hands. "Soren? Are you together?"

"I don't think that is important right now, Mom, but yes, they are." Hyde answered.

"Janice. Can you please tell us what happened? I'm sorry for this but there are things we need to know. Did you sacrifice Willem for protection?" Nora felt bad asking.

"Nora!" Hyde was shocked. "We were going to ask nicely!"

"We don't have time for nice, Hyde." Nora stood up. "Look, we have a demon that is stalking us at the college. We need to know what you know."

She pulled out a picture of The Abraxas charm and the Vyvolat amulet. Soren was ready to marry Nora now. He was going to marry her and hunt with her. Forever. Till death. He loved his phantom.

Janice turned white and sat in the nearest chair with tears. John was beside her. He wiped tears as well. Nora was hoping that this wasn't true. For Hyde.

"Is that what he used?" Janice whispered.

"Who?" Hyde asked. Demanded. He needed to know if his brother could be saved.

Janice shook her head. She couldn't tell Hyde. "We did it to save you. To protect you. Hyde. Protect us. There is evil out there that is after us."

"We know very well what is out there. We are here to put an end to it. Now, what do you know?" Soren demanded. He stood by Nora.

"We need to start from when it began." John said. He had to finally say something.

"I can't!" Janice was scared.

"We have to, Janice. We don't have a choice anymore." John looked at the armed men in his living room.

"It began four years ago." John began....

Willem was playing hooky. He pretended to get on the bus and sneaked away to the store, bought some junk food and met his new goth friends.

He never fit in anywhere. For the first time, he had friends. He had started a new school. Middle school. New people to hate him and he found some goth losers. He had never been so happy.
