"Holy shit!" Zac said "I thought we would be looking for ages!" Wither nodded their head in agreement, "Hey I'm going to swoop down okay?" Zac nods his head and braces. Wither flies up and pauses, "You ready?" Zac nods his head. Wither holds on Zac tight and begins to dive.

The wind on Zac's face made his eyes teary and his insides want to come out of his mouth but in a weird way,

He loved it.

The breeze on his face, the wind in his hair, his clothes flapping against his skin, made him feel like he was free. He looked at Wither still in their human form they looked amazing. Their short black hair brushing their face, their green eyes sparkling, their wings pointing as they dive closer to the ground.

The ground.

He forgot they were going towards the ground. The feeling of his insides coming back up again overwhelmed, but he held it in. 

When they land Wither immediately tucked their wings back in. "Okay now we got to find a library." Zac nods his head and starts walking. "Let's try this way." 

*An Hour Later*

"FUCKING FINALLY!" Zac says relieved entering the library. Wither and Zac walk up to the front desk to see a lady with white fluffy hair. "Excuse me miss... Where can we find the fantasy section?" The lady looks at Zac and nods, "To your right, on the second shelf." The lady says in a cheery tone. "Thank you!" Zac says and turns. "Okay, let's find a book about demon revival." 

*A few hours of research later*

"Ooh Wither look at this!" Zac points to the book. "In order to revive a demon, you are going to have to "kill" the demon in the way that it died in its previous life. In order to kill the demon's soul, you have to convince the soul to kill itself or have a person who was close to them kill the demon's soul." the book read. "Okay.. Wither do you know how he died?" Zac asked. Wither shook their head. "No.." Zac thought for a minute. "Did he have a human name?" Willow thought for a minute, "Samuel. His name was Samuel." Zac knew he has heard that name,

Willow...

It was the name of Willow's little brother. He was 8 when she died, that was 6 years ago. "Fuck..." Zac mumbled, "We have to go somewhere..." Zac says standing up and walking back to the desk with the book. "We would like check this book out please." The lady nodded. "Okay, let me do a few things first." 

*A few minutes later*

"Okay you are good!" The lady said. "Have a nice day!" Zac nodded in thanks. "We have another question.. Where is the town Clayton?" The lady thought for a minute. "It's actually pretty close. First you go to Triesville Lane, then go down towards Jacksons Street, there should be a little gas station called Diamonds. When you see Diamonds then you know you're in Clayton." Zac nods, "Thank you so much ma'am! This helps us out a lot!" The lady smiles. "Of course! Now you kids have a good day now!"

*Outside*

Wither looks like they've seen a ghost. "Wither what's wrong?" Zac asks. "Oh it's nothing much, it's just I died around Clayton." Zac looks at his friend in pity. "I'm sorry..." Zac says, "I'm sure that the place we're going to isn't where you died." Zac chuckled trying to lighten up the mood. Wither lets a little snicker out, "Yeah, doubt it."

*About an hour of walking later*

"Look! Diamonds!" Wither said excitedly. "You sound like you're playing a video game." Zac laughs. "But now that we're in Clayton I guess we should look for the place, let's go ask the employee inside." Zac said walking towards the gas station. 

They walk inside and to the front desk. "Hey! How can I help you two!" A male voice says. "Can you tell us directions to Plum Street?" The man thinks for a minute and nods. "Go straight down the sidewalk." He says pointing to his right. "Thanks man!" Zac says. The man nods, "Of course!"  

Zac and Wither walk outside and begins down the sidewalk towards Plum Street. "So Zac, what are we doing in Clayton?" Zac sighs. "I think I know who Samuel's mother is... I just need to ask her a few questions and catch up a bit." Wither nods in understanding. "Do I need to stay outside?" Zac shakes his head. "I don't think so, I can introduce you if that's okay." Wither nods their head. "Okay." 

Zac and Wither walk up a familiar street. "Okay we're here..." Zac says as he walks up to the door and knocks. "Hello?" A familiar voice says. "Hello Mrs. Edge! It's been awhile." Zac chuckled. "Zac?! It has been ages since I've seen you! Co-" Mrs. Edge was cut off.

"Mom?"
