Zac stared out the window into nothingness, "They're only dreams, Sam. It's not like we can verify them." He was tired of talking about it. It was all they had done for the past few days. He couldn't even get anything out of Arturius and Gabby thought his idea that she could replicate Aya's ability foolish. Then what the hell could he do? They were right back at the start. Square one. The sun was beginning to burn his face as he loosened his will around the sunlight spell on his body.

Sam pushed him away from the window into the shadows, "Don't play with your spell, Zac. And no, it's not about verification. It stands to reason that Aya never wanted anyone to taste her blood because it would do this. She said her blood acted like poison."

Zac’s eyes looked as if they were about to cloud over. Sam held up his hand defensively as he approached.

"They're true dreams, Zac. She gave you her blood to save you because she was in love with you." Zac grabbed the front of his shirt and they were face to face. "Arturius is the one you want. Save your anger for him."

Zac breathed deeply, trying to sate his anger. He wanted to rip something apart, something living. He needed to feel warm living blood through his fingers.

Then Morgan was pulling him off Sam, standing between them, her hand on his chest. She had appeared out of thin air and he was grateful she'd chosen to come looking at that moment.

"Snap out if it, Zac," she said, glaring at him from under her lashes.

Clutching his head in his trembling hands as his eyes settled, he said what he'd been thinking everyday for the past two weeks, "I failed her. I should have died... Not her."

He didn't understand the look on Morgan's face, but her hand dropped away and she glanced at Sam who grasped both of his shoulders and stated, "You did not fail her... know that we will avenge her."

He looked from his brother to Morgan, ashamed that she had found him slipping back into his old ways.

"I'm with you," she smiled, sensing the uncertainty in his gaze. "Whatever it takes."

The moment was broken as Sam's cell began to ring. Pulling it from his back pocket he saw it was Alex. Sliding his finger across the screen he put it up to his ear and said, "Alex..." His expression became confused, "Slow down, slow down. What's happened?" His eyes widened. "Holy shit. Come to the house. NOW."

Zac grabbed his brother's shoulder, his composure returning. "What's happened?"

Sam looked at him with an expression laced with confusion and disbelief. "Aya is alive."
