'So, what's the plan?' Beau asked as he rushed back to Eleanor's office where Wilbur, Declan and a few of the other Watchers, who had finally found their way back to London with their students, were waiting for him.

'We're going to speak to our contacts on the street,' Declan replied as he put his jacket on. 'See if we can organise a meet with the head of the wolves in London. We shouldn't be long. Wish us luck,' he said as he rushed out, followed by two colleagues.

'Good luck,' Eleanor yelled with a grin as peered through the doorway and watched him run down one of the tunnels that led off of the main hallway at Praxos HQ.

'How's Jimble doing?' asked Eleanor.

'He's okay. He's just having a rest. We ran a few tests and discovered that whatever those Neutrals did to him seems to have put a stop to his allergy to the house dust,' Wilbur replied as they all headed towards the main living room.

Eleanor nodded, 'Excellent. I must remember to thank the head of the Neutrals when this is all over. For now, I think we should just wait for Declan to get back. Wilbur, would you mind telling the kitchen staff to organise some food for when the students wake up. I would imagine they'll be quite literally starving.

'It's already been organised,' he smiled.

'What would I do without you?'

Three hours later, the students were beginning to emerge from their rooms, and Eleanor was quite right. They were all ready to eat.

As Lana and Emma walked into the dining room, Emma's eyes widened in excitement as she saw someone she'd been thinking about all day.

'Diarmuid!' she squealed, running to him. Catching her, he pulled her up into a deep bear hug. Her feet barely touched the ground.

'I've been so worried about you,' he said as he pulled her out of the room to the adjacent white room that was filled with oversized beanbags.

'I know, me too,' she replied as he kissed her passionately.

Breaking for air, the two looked into each other's eyes and grinned.

'I'm so glad you're back. I've missed you,' she sighed. Diarmuid squeezed her tightly and kissed her again. When her stomach rumbled loudly, they broke apart laughing.

'I guess we really should go get some food,' he said as he grabbed hold of her hand and they walked back through the door, breathing in the delicious smells of a full English breakfast.

Not wanting to let each other go, they had difficulty placing the food on their plates. Reluctantly they released each other’s hands with a chuckle and proceeded to pile their plates high. Diarmuid chose eggs, bacon, sausages and toast; Emma opted for toast and scrambled eggs.

Once they were ready to sit down, they looked around the tables of students tucking into their food, all talking loudly.

Lana waved energetically from a round table at the back of the room, where she sat with some friends.

'Hey guys,' Emma said with a grin, 'It's really good to see you.
