Fia didn't know how to tell Drake what she knew as she knew it wouldn't come easy to acknowledge. She didn't want to hurt Drake in any way and that included emotionally. "what I feared seems to be coming true. You know when I went off on my own early on when mum first went missing?" She began to explain, looking at him the entire time before she continued, "well.. I asked around people who know dad as my starting point on how I can find mum and get dad out of his self loathing funk." She knew it might be coming across as stalling but she wanted to give him as much context as possible. "I found one contact....or more to the point, an ex contact of dad's. Astra. Word got around in Hell that dad was slipping because of mum's disappearance so naturally, she decided to insert herself into the family drama. Turns out it's your mum that sets the wheels in motion. I didn't want to believe it....trust me, I said some stuff that even dad would ground me for to Astra. But I did more digging over these weeks and when I saw mum full blown dark side phoenix for the first time? I saw it for myself...Serena was a key to unleashing mum's terror on our earth." She explained. Her tone was clear but it was also clear it was difficult for her to tell her best friend this. "That was when I had to do more digging and I found this..." She continued, digging out of her bag a book and handing it to Drake. Serena's book. "Inside there's a scripture with instructions on how to corrupt mum and then after her guilt for being manipulated by the down world to help them take control of mum. They're linked Drake.... I didn't want to believe it but the evidence is too high and I'm afraid we might be too late...the wheels are fully in motion and I'm not even a thought in their minds in this time" she said sadly.

The moment Serena said she knew Lucifer, Chas instantly looked at John then back at Serena and repeated the action a couple of times before he managed to find the words he was thinking. "oh no...not him. Not HIM!" He protested, "that man has been nothing but trouble in our lives...in John's life! Not to mention the weird thing they had going on in the past" he added, before looking at Kay apologetically. "There has to be another way" he said. Kay just looked at them all bewildered, surely they couldn't be talking about THE Lucifer Morningstar...the devil himself. Could they?! "Are we really talking about the actual devil?" She questioned, "yes and what scares me is if the down world, which includes Hell want you Kay...that Lucifer will know of you. John...please say you see where I'm coming from here? Do you really wanna risk him being anywhere near Kay?" He spoke.

Fia knew she had to give Drake more information than she already had done, he deserved to know after being dragged back here after all. "I will but not in earshot of everyone else" she replied to him honestly. She then started to wonder if this house had the hidden hallway that it did in her time as that would be perfect for their conversation. For now though she decided to just use a different room. "Let's go to another room" she said, taking his hand and pulling him out of their current place, down the hall and into another room that just so happened to the room Kay was using. Closing the door behind them, she placed a sound proofing spell on it so they wouldn't be disturbed. "okay...we should be good now to speak freely" she stated.

Kay and Chas both wrinkled their faces up in discomfort at being told they weren't being as quiet as they thought they being. They both then noticed Fia and Drake leaving the room and Kay couldn't help but feel a little suspicious of why it seemed Fia was clearly leading the decision. Shaking the suspicion off her mind, she focused back on the situation in the room the rest of them were in. "I wasn't actually thinking if it was a viable option" she grumbled. "I don't know anyone personally" Chas spoke up. "So lets just say that option isn't available to use, what other ideas have people got?" He then added. "looking back on my magical lineage and see if there's a connection to Serena's?" Kay suggested.

With it decided when Drake would chat with Bane, Fia nodded and began to think of what her next move would be outside of trying to keep her side of the family in the dark as much as possible. She hated doing it like this but she knew it was necessary.

As John's glance went towards Serena, both Chas and Kay followed his gaze with their own before looking back at John as he seemed to be getting another theory in his mind. Both of them gave his idea some serious thought, it seemed like a crazy theory but crazy theories was all they had right now. "I mean...it's about as plausible as any other idea we got right now." Chas remarked, "which just begs the concern of, is Serena a cause for what happens to Kay to make Fia come back here?" He continued as he thought about his words. That brought a shudder to Kay. "All we know for certain right now is that I go dark side so to speak in the kid's time. And that happening and however it happens clearly has an impact on you John to make Fia feel obligated to fix things herself. If only there was a way for the kids to bring us to their time so we can see for ourselves what is going on" she commented.

Fia pondered the suggestion after letting Drake think of an idea. It seemed the most logical to her that he used the shadow realm to discuss with Bane. She just hoped that Bane would be open to listening to Drake. "Okay, try that. Whilst you're doing that I'll try and keep my side of the family off our backs." She replied.

Kay and Chas both agreed that John's suggestion was as good as anything else that they could come up with. Still, Kay couldn't fully shake that dread feeling in the pit of her stomach over this whole situation. She also couldn't figure out why the kids felt the need to come back this far in time when she most certainly wasn't even pregnant with John's child, let alone anything else with her life. "It's as good as a place to start than anywhere I guess." Kay replied, folding her arms across her chest, in an attempt to stop herself from nervous fidgeting. "I agree. It's about our only option at the moment." Chas said, noticing Kay's discomfort.

The moment Drake said about talking to Bane alone, Fia realised she never factored that option in until now. Of course! If anyone of this group would be able to help them with information and not put things in utter chaos as a repercussion, it would be Bane. "Okay, we'll talk with him in private somehow, got any bright ideas on how?" She asked him.

With John disagreeing with Chas' theory, it gave both him and Kay some sort of relief that he could be wrong. Neither wanted whatever was to happen, to actually happen no matter what. Especially Kay. "Well that's a small relief" Kay said. "I still don't like this feeling of being in the dark about why they came back here though. I dislike the very idea that something will happen to me even more so" she then added quietly. Truth was, she was, deep down absolutely terrified that whatever demons have been stalking her for these years would actually get her and break her to their will. She also hated the fact something happens so bad that it means a future kid of hers feels it's imperative to time travel to fix it. No teenager should be having that kind of weight of responsibility on their shoulders.

Fia hugged Drake and when she did she saw Chas, John and Kay all talking in a hushed group. "You're a good guy Drake...don't feel bad for it hitting it you harder than you thought. Just hope that's the worse you'll see her in" she said to him before whispering, "think they're getting suspicious of us...we gotta be careful". She then pulled away from him. She knew it was hard to not get close emotionally to this year's versions of their family, she even almost forgot that herself not long ago with John, but they had to remain smart. They had to set the path into a different direction and then go home. But if her folks got anymore suspicious it was going to make things more difficult.

Kay and Chas both nodded in agreement to John's theories. It was the only thing that made sense to them both. "and I got a sinking feeling it's the latter theory. Fia clearly still feels like you're not totally a lost cause John in her time. And if Serena has something to do with what happens to me? With what she's capable of? That's terrifying to even think about." Kay whispered. "You know what else has been worryingly going round my mind? That whatever happens in their time is a fixed point and can't be changed" Chas added, the thought giving him a cold shudder down his back.

Fia sighed with relief when Serena agreed to let her help in stopping the bleeding on her leg. She lifted the partially wrapped gauze and placed her hand over the cut so she could truly focus on it and spoke a few simple words in Latin. An orange light came from her hand and seeped over Serena's leg wound, not causing any pain to the woman as it helped stop the bleeding and kickstart the healing process. Lifting her hand away she looked pleased with her handy work, "there, now you can wrap it to keep it clean and let it finish healing naturally. But it won't bleed anymore" she explained. Standing up she walked over to Drake, "she's alright now. I've stopped the bleeding and helped it to heal" she told him softly.

Kay and Chas were both wondering the same thing. It was clear the kids must.know more than they were letting on but it was also clear they weren't telling them. "The fact that neither of them are telling us makes me think it must be something much bigger than they initially let on. Which quite frankly worries me" Kay replied. "I hate to agree but I do. Drake told me Fia was the instigator of this little time trip of theirs but he told me nothing else. Just that Fia barely told him anything and dragged him to this time to aid her. Which leaves me believing it's to do with you John or even more likely, and what my money is on: Kay. I mean, she's basically the last phoenix in existence which is clearly shaking things up in the down world" he said quietly so only Kay and John could hear.

"so we shouldn't worry about it just now and focus on other problems...right?" Kay replied. Though she was curious about the latter theory and wondered what they all could have done to make the gods give them a warning. At the same time, she almost didn't want to know what warranted a possible warning.

Fia sighed when Serena insisted she was alright and this refusing help once again. "Then let me help stop the bleeding then I'll get Drake out of here and help calm him down" she suggested, just wanting to help. It seemed this Serena was just as stubborn as the Serena she knew in their time.

"to be honest mate, we're not even sure what it is" Chas replied to John, not sure how to describe what he and Drake spotted. Then it came to him how Drake described it. "It was like a scorched burn mark" he replied. "But other than that we didn't find anything, just thought it's placement was strange" he explained. Kay couldn't help but find what Chas said intriguing, "could it have been from when Fia got hit on the roof?" She asked him and John, to which Chas shrugged.

Fia also saw how Serena was trying to fix her leg by wrapping it and she still couldn't help but feel slightly go blame for Serena feeling like she had to do that to herself. Walking over and kneeling down, she knew she could help. "Let me help. I can at least partially heal this to make it easier for you" she suggested.

They all heard the scream and went running after Drake. When they reached the room, they saw Serena's leg bleeding, Fia locking whatever it was in a jar that clearly came out of Serena's leg and John seemingly trying to help. "She took it upon herself to cut an opening to remove this bug thing mid spell. This is not my doing" Fia said in defence. Kay walked over to Fia to see what was in Serena and pulled a face to show she found it gross. "you got it out, that's the main thing" she said to the young girl.

"There's also something that's attached to the outside of the house that we found weird" Chas said, knowing he couldn't exactly keep it from John. "of course there is" Kay remarked sarcastically.
