I didn't notice before but Mauricio had a slight accent, "Nahla, Open your eyes please." He pleaded, and for him I wanted to open them and watch his face turn from lost and sad to happy and overjoyed. But Nahlas eyes didn't move, I knew she was awake because I could hear everything around us, like there's someone pacing nearby, and Mauricio leaning over me. Nahla could literally sense everything in the room, she could see all the furniture and people in the room. Now that she was feeling her way around the room I could see that it was Malik pacing and that we were in a small bedroom with wooden floors and walls. She could see everything in detail without even opening her eyes, She could even feel what they felt..

Nahla cracked a smile then Mauricio sighed, "I knew you were awake." He exclaimed. She laughed and opened her eyes to meet his silver gaze, "How's your side feeling?" He asked without breaking eye contact.

I laid my hand over it and winced, "It doesn't feel great." I told him.

He chuckled and Malik answered. "What were you two thinking?"

Nahla smiled at him, "What does that even mean Malik, I was doing what every past me has done. Keeping the balance."

He did not like that response, "How are you going to do that dead!?"

She huffed, "I have Mauricio, and of course you Malik."

"Quit being naive, Nahla I know you understand the dangers of messing with the Unterwelten." He paced some more.

"Malik," Mauricio cut in. "I was with her the whole time."

He growled under his breath something illegible, "Then how did she manage to get poisoned?"

"Luck?" Nahla threw out. He glared at me, And when he did I felt that he could see me, the me that was watching within Nahla.

"Solas, wouldn't hurt her." Mauricio added.

"I am not talking about Solas, she has no control over her people." Mauricio and I didnt have a response. Or at least I wouldn't know because William was shaking me awake.

"No, shh." Was Allys response when I asked her to wake up. I laughed and shook her shoulder some more. "Okay, Like five more minutes please. " She pleaded with her eyes still shut.

Everyone else had gone inside to eat, we stopped by one of the Underground restaurants, restaurants strictly for the supernaturals. "Allyson, I know your hungry." Her eyes fluttered open, "That a girl."

Her eyes sparkled with delight, "What are we eating?"

"I knew you could hear me, come inside and pick something they have almost everything here."

"Where is here?" she asked skeptically.

"The Rouge." I pointed to the restaurant. "It's a restaurant for supernaturals, one of the few places we have, where we can go and not pretend to be human."

Her eyes softened when I said to her, "So, where do we have money for this? I left everything behind."

I smiled down at her, "Ally I always have my wallet on me and I just happened to grab yours and kevin on the way out."

Her look said she didn't believe me, "How did you have all the time with the roof falling down?"

I grasped her shoulders softly and held her gaze in mine, "I can move really fast."

She rolled her eyes and pushed past me, "Alright let's eat I guess."

The inside of the restaurant was dimly light, red walls and wood flooring and wooden furniture. It was jam packed with people. Our group was seated near the front of the restaurant, the table was round, and big enough to fit about 8 people. I sat next to Adam and Will took the other seat next to me, which happened to be next to Annalisa. Sammy nuzzled herself under the table. Jen, Riley, and Kyla, sat on the other side of the table. "Your awake!" I blurted toward Kyla.
