"and you won't be a weak link Drake." Fia replied to Drake. She hates seeing him like this and was wondering if it'd be safer if Drake stayed behind if the others ended up going out to find Bane.

Chas nodded, understanding John's logic for having this chat in another room and away from the kids as well as Kay and Josh. He followed Serena into the main room when he quickly went to her side when she doubled over. Josh also rapidly rushed forward to Serena, "Serena!" He exclaimed out of worry, grabbing ahold of her so she didn't hurt herself when she fell forward. "What's wrong?" He asked her.

Drake got up seeing his mother fall and said “it’s her link with Bane. Something is wrong…dang it all they got him” John moved to help as Serena was barely conscious, her mind burning in the pain she felt from her partner. She said weakly “his…I’m trouble…bane…”

With Serena doubling over in pain, Fia, Kay and Josh knew it couldn't be good. Fia had this horrible feeling in the pit of her stomach that what happened in her and Drake's time was now happening in this time, earlier than it should be, and everything they've secretly tried to do before making themselves known to their family was all for nought.

"You have to go get him" Kay said, she didn't like that she was saying those words, she didn't like that Bane was in trouble, but there was no other choice. If they didn't get Bane back then he'll would break loose on Earth and they'd be in even more trouble than they were already. "Mum...if they go..." Fia tried to say, but even she knew it was the only option they had. "Kay's right, Bane needs to be brought back here to safety" Josh spoke up.

John cursed softly and said “Chas let’s get everything we can think together. We are going on a rescue mission.” Serena was trying to sit up saying “I’m coming too…I have to be there to help Bane…”

Drake looked at Fia, not sure if it was a good idea.

Chas nodded in agreement and began walking round the place gathering whatever he could that he knew about, and left the things he didn't know what they were to John. He couldn't help but feel guilty deep inside for letting Bane go it alone, cursing himself for not stopping him and making him stay with them.

Fia looked at Drake back with the same worry but they both knew how damn stubborn their families were when it came to deciding on something and not changing their minds. "I'll go with them. She then looked at the group, "I'm going too. You're going to need the fire power you can get and if you're gonna risk anyone, risk me. I don't exist in this time yet, it don't matter what happens to me, but it matters greatly if something happens to Serena and mum" she explained defiantly.

"Fia we can't let you go, you're a kid" Kay said, making Fia look at her, "and I'm capable of so much more than you know, in this time or mine. I'm going and I'm not taking a no for an answer" she replied back. "Drake, you can either come with or stay here with mum" she suggested.

Serena flinched and said “I think Kay should come…I have a feeling we are all going to be needed in this…” Drake nodded and said “I’ll be fine to go. His family. Mum you sure your okay?” Serena nodded and tried to get to her feet.

John looked around and said “Chas…we are going to need the big guns” he moved to his work room and grabbed even the stuff that was risky to use.

Fia didn't like the idea of her mother going as well, in her eyes it was far too risky to practically bring her to the people who are wanting her. "I don't like that idea at all" she stated, but that was all she said on the matter. "Bane is in trouble, I wanna help but not be stuck in here worrying about you lot" Kay said, putting her hand on FIA's shoulder in an attempt to reassure her.

Chas knew 'needing the big guns' could mean only one thing, the stuff not even John enjoyed using but always kept for moments just like this. He grabbed a bag and put everything in it, "anyone who thinks they can be of use in this fight in some way should come along, it's risky yes but right now we got no other choice and Midnite has started war by taking Bane, if it is Bane" Chas told everyone around him.

Serena nodded and muttered “I’ll take his head off for hurting him…” Trish said “I should stay here…” Drake nodded and moved to get his gear together. John came back with his bag and said “alright let’s go”

The moment Trish said she was doing the right thing by staying behind, Josh nodded, "I'll be staying with you. I can't leave you here alone" he told his sister, knowing there wasn't much he could do when they confront people with mage abilities anyway. With the others all finished preparing, he gave Serena a tight hug, "come back safe" he said to her, kissing her temple before letting go.

Fia and Kay nodded and began heading out with the group to outside the mill House. This whole plan of just storming in to get Bane felt far too risky to Kay, hells, it barely felt like a plan to her but she had to do what she could to help Bane and get him back to Serena. If they could help Bane, they help Serena and hopefully put a stop, or at least a pause in this big plan to corrupt them both.

Serena smiled at him then moved and kissed him on the lips. She pulled back and said “I’ll come back whole…I promise…”

John was checking his gear when Chas stood next to him and he muttered “I don’t like this…time is against us…we can’t take time to plan…but we can’t go in blind either…”

Drake was slipping his jacket on and looked at Fia. “This isn’t how it went before…”

Josh smiled and nodded at Serena, holding her to her promise as he knew he'd be a nervous wreck having them all go off to do this rescue mission. Yet being nervous and staying back with Trish was far safer and more logical than him going along and leaving his baby sister alone in a house full of magical artefacts that they didn't know what most of them did.

"I don't like it either John but what choice do we have? All we can do is get to the area and have a couple of us do recon before we go on guns blazing so go speak to retrieve Bane." Chas said to John back, he didn't see any other option. He also didn't think there were anyone else but Fia, Drake and possibly Kay able to do recon from a good distance incognito and get back to them.

Fia sighed and have a discreet nod back to Drake, "I know, I don't like the change of plan that is happening but we can't do much about it right now. Lol we can do is hope with us all there we can set things onto a new path l, changing our timeline for the better" she said quietly back to him.

Serena sighed and left after the others, getting her war look on. She looked at the others and said “I can go alone…this isn’t really your guys fight…” John shook his head and said “Bane is family love. We are all in” Drake nodded and said “his my uncle. We go all in”

Kay, Fia and Chas all stood firmly on this situation. Like the others there was no way they were going to let Bane be in danger or pet Serena go in alone, especially as only Chas and John knew who Papa Midnite the most and what he was capable of. "What the others say, there's no way we're gonna let you go alone Serena. Bane is one of us and if one of us goes to save him, we all do" Kay explained, with Fia and Chas firmly nodding in agreement.

Fia then looked at John, "lead the way dad, even if it means we do a tracking spell" she suggested, trusting her father wholeheartedly.

John smirked and said "I don't think we will need that. Serena? You should be able to track him" Serena nodded nad closed her eyes, the aura around her glowing the silver energy of her powers. John smirked watching the shadows come to her aid.

When Fia had mentioned about using a tracking spell, she had momentarily forgot that Serena was capable of tracking Bane through their bond. She watched Serena got a link forged to finding Bane, as did the others and when it was forged, she looked on as the shadows came to Serena's aid.

Kay noticed how John was smirking at the shadows coming to Serena's aid and she really hoped that this wouldn't be the start of John losing control and going rogue in this rescue mission, but she was also aware that there was still a lot she was yet to learn about John. It just unnerved her slightly, but she wouldn't let it show to everyone in the group. "We're ready when you are to go Serena" she told her.

Serena nodded and said “I’ve almost got it…his downtown…by the docks…” John shook his head smiling and said “I love seeing magic I haven’t seen before…reminds me of how bright and big the world really is…” he put an arm around Kay as Serena opened her eyes. “I got him.”

Drake swallowed and said “here we go…”

Kay, Fia and Chas all let Serena do what she could to track Bane. Kay looked at John as he commented about enjoying magic he hadn't seen or used before being used by someone else. Kay let him wrap an arm round her waist, stepping close to him. The others made a mental note of the fact Bane was by the docks, Kay even forgetting this area had docks as she usually stayed clear of them for fear of being found by people she didn't want to be found by.

"Okay, let's go" Fia commented when Serena pinned down Bane's location precisely. She was nervous about what they were about to find when they got there, but that wasn't going to stop her from helping. In hers and Drake's time, they never got to help because it happened when they weren't nearby, now they had a chance to give that extra aid. She just hoped they wouldn't be too late or fail.

John let Kay go ahead but he caught Fia’s hand and held her back a moment. “Love…if it looks like it’s going south, get Serena and your mother out. And bane. Don’t worry about me. Those three are the ones that have to get out with everything how it needs to be…alright?”

Drake was opening the door for Serena when she paused and rested a hand on his cheek. “I don’t know if you know…but your named after a man who gave his life to save mine…just don’t follow his steps exactly” Drake smiled and kissed her cheek. “We will get him back mom…I swear it”

Kay had a feeling the reason why John was holding back was because of Fia, so she let him hang back as she went on ahead with Chas. Fia looked down at her hand then up again at John, looking him in the eye as he told her to just focus on getting Kay, Serena and Bane out if it goes south. It was a plea she didn't like, she didn't want it to come to a point where she'd have to leave her father behind. "It won't come to that, I'm not leaving any of you behind. Without you getting out safe with mum, there'll be no me after all" she told him back, giving him a slight smirk that could mirror his own. But she wasn't amused, despite her outer appearance, she was dreading losing either or both her parents in this time.

Chas stayed with Kay as he looked behind him seeing jOhn and Fia having a chat, as well as Serena and Drake and he could only imagine what was being discussed with them. Noticing Fia's smirk, he felt like he was looking at John and it was endearing as well as slightly disconcerting due to technically Fia not even existing in this time yet. Yet seeing Fia standing there beside her father gave him hope that she would be a beacon for John not to screw things up or give up on anything.

John moved his hand to her cheek and said “I’m not dying love. But if it comes to a fight with papa…I’d rather it be me fighting him then your mum and Serena…”

Serena smiled and Drake helped her into the cab then looked at Kay and Chas. “We aren’t losing anyone today…”
