Upon realizing that Hank was most likely under a potent love spell that could potentially kill him and Wu had accidentally been in contact with it, you, Rosalee, and Monroe began scouring the books in the Spice Shop to see if you could find a way to not only reverse it but figure out which spell it was. Nick had let Sean know what had happened, and both agreed that they needed to keep an eye on Hank and try to keep him away from Adalind. After hours of combing through books, you and Monroe had fallen asleep. You were leaning against him as he was sitting on the floor, leaning against one of the counters. You felt someone shaking you. As you groggily opened your eyes, Monroe jerked awake.

"Where am I?!" he exclaimed.

You rolled your eyes as you slightly smacked his arm, helping him to get his bearings. You looked over to where Rosalee was sitting, handing you a large book.

"I found it, and it's worse than we thought," she said.

It took your eyes a minute to adjust, but once they did and you skimmed the page, your eyes widened at the realization. "Can we reverse it?"

Rosalee nodded, "I think I have all the ingredients. Can you call your brother and let him know?"

You nodded as you stood up, handing the book to Monroe. He looked at the page it was opened to, his eyes going big when he read it. "Oh shit, this is bad!"

After calling Nick and letting him know how serious the situation was, it didn't take him long to get to the Spice Shop.

"The Captain is keeping an eye on Hank. Trying to give him extra work so he can stall him from going over to Adalind's." He watched as you and Rosalee began setting up the beakers and bunsen burners so you could mix the antidote. "You sure this is going to work?" he asked.

You were trying to keep your hand steady as you filled the dropper. "It has to, or else Hank is literally a dead man." A few drops fell from the dropper, and as the liquid hit the table, it began burning through the enamel.

"Oh look, it has multiple uses," Monroe said sarcastically.

You and Rosalee gave him annoyed looks as you slowly dropped in the liquid. Rosalee let everything boil for a few seconds before she turned the flame off.

"So how do we get Hank to take this?" Nick asked.

You chuckled slightly, "That's the tricky part."

Rosalee held up an archaic looking device, "We just have to insert this into his nose and spray the antidote up his nostrils."

Monroe looked at it in disbelief, "Yeah, I don't know if Hank is going to be up for that."

Nick looked over, "Well, there's one way to find out if this works."

********

The four of you made it to Wu's apartment just in time. You found him laying on his rug, convulsing. Monroe and Nick lifted him up onto his couch as you and Rosalee prepped the antidote. They held him down as you inserted the device into his nostrils and sprayed it up his nose.

"Did it work?" Monroe asked.

You waited a few minutes, all of you looking down at Wu. He gasped out a couple of times, causing you to jump back in surprise. Then, he started coughing up carpet fibers.

"Yup, it worked," Rosalee said as she grimaced and wiped the spit from her face from Wu's coughing.

Wu's eyes opened, looking at the four of you in shock. "Am I dreaming?" he asked.

You looked at the others. "Yes!" you said. "You're dreaming!"

Nick and Monroe rolled their eyes as Rosalee stifled her laughter. Wu looked down.
