WHEN SAWYER INITIALLY AGREED TO door-watch, she thought it would be over in a good five minutes. However, that didn't seem to be the case as the boy on the bed began squirming around, it's springs squeaking as he did so.

Sawyer glanced behind her briefly, watching as Flora showed him a photo of something on her phone, "I'm here to help you, Devin. Is this what attacked you?"

Devin nodded, "That's... that's what... " His face contorted with discomfort. Sawyer watched Flora gently hold his arm.

"Devin. Devin, you're okay," she assured, but he kept squirming and thrashing around.

He clutched at his shoulder, "Get it off! Get it off!"

Terra appeared at the door, startling Sawyer, "Hey. Ter. What's up, gurl?" She smiled awkwardly, just caving and letting the fairy in. Terra jogged up to where Flora stood near Devin.

"Flora, where's the antidote?" Terra asked as Devin continued grunting and yelling to 'get it off'. "For the Eldwyn Amalgam. Where is it?"

"I didn't know there was one," Flora turned to Terra, slightly exasperated.

"I have to get it off!" Devin grunted, clutching at his side and shoulder, thrashing. "I have to get it off!"

"He's gonna hurt himself," Flora said.

"Sawyer!" Terra called, and the Specialist ran over, holding his arms down while Terra used her magic to hold him down with vines.

"I... I could shock him," Sawyer suggested, but was shut down by Terra instantly.

"We need him alive, Sawyer!" 

Devin struggled against Sawyer and the vines, trying to worm out. Sawyer struggled to keep him down, "Ter, he's--"

Before she could finish her sentence, he broke free, forcing Sawyer off. She landed on the floor, hard, wincing as she landed awkwardly on her hand. Everything seemed to happen at lightning speed. Devin had jumped up and grabbed Flora by the arms, pushing her down to the floor. Regaining herself, Sawyer shoved him off of Flora just as Terra's vines pried his arms away. He broke away again, and sprinted out of the room.

"Flora, are you... " Sawyer examined the girl with frantic eyes, gently lifting her up, a hand on her back and on her shoulder. "are you okay?" The Earth Fairy nodded and Sawyer helped her to her feet, sprinting after the direction Devin went in.

Sawyer followed him to Rosalind's office, where she found her dear old half-sister and Beatrix, "You're getting on my last nerve." Stella's eyes widened at the sight of Sawyer, unaware that she had even come back to Alfea in the first place.
