We appeared back at the castle courtyard, the rain continuing to fall hard, as Remington held Lynette in his arms, blood pouring from her.
My body felt different, almost weak, and that's when I knew what it was.
Juniper was in the smoke bombs.... It was meant to mute most of our powers for a few minutes... So they can try to kill us easier.
"GET A MEDIC!!! WE NEED HELP!!!" Remington screamed as he tried to pick Lynette up.
Lynette cried out in pain as he did and quickly laid her back on the ground.
"We shouldn't move her, I'll get something to help," I said urgently as he handed Leda to Austin and then me, Andrew and Shy ran as fast as we were able to into the castle.
Our vampire speed is gone... Damn you, Lilith!!
"Hurry, Alan!!" Larisa cried out as we rushed inside.

I quickly took off my jacket and knelt down, Larisa with me.
"Lynette, we have to remove the stake and put pressure on your wound, at least until Alan comes back," I said.
She whimpered as Larisa gripped her hand, and I carefully but quickly got the stake and pulled it out.
"AAAAAHHHH!!!" Lynette cried out as I then quickly pressed my jacket against the wound as Remignton held her, trying to calm her.
"Ssshhh, shhhh, its alright, Lynette," Larisa tried as she sat near her while Remington held her.
All of a sudden, Lynette then started coughing up blood and convulsing.
"LADY LYNETTE!!" Leda cried in shock as Austin held her up, holding pressure on her bullet wound.
"R-Rem-" Lynette coughed, choking on blood as she struggled.
"What's happening to her!?" Remington asked frantically.
Lady Genevieve quickly knelt down to examine her wound.
"Oh no.... Lilith poisoned the stake!!" she said, having me look and sure enough, a strange green fluid also leaked from her wound.
Lynette whimpered weakly as she gripped Remington's hand.
"Rem.... R-Remi--" she coughed.
"Shhh shh, try not to speak Lynette, its going to be okay," Remington said, then quickly bit he wrist as hard as he could.
He managed to break skin only a little bit, seeing as though the juniper smoke kept his fangs held back, and I quickly grabbed Emerson's cane that was on the ground.
"Brother," I said quickly as I unsheathed the sword and he held his wrist out, having me slice it open.
He grunted in pain as he held his bloody wrist to her lips.
"Here, quickly, take this," he urged her.
"His powers are muted, though, will it work!?" Larisa asked frantically.
"I'm not sure," Genevieve said worriedly. "The juniper should be wearing off soon, but its different for most vampires...."
I pressed my wrist against her lips as she held onto it.
