Carmen stood beside Theo. The rain lightly spat down on them, dampening their clothing slightly. "What are we doing here?" She mumbled. Theo glanced down at her, his eyebrows raising slightly and a slight smirk upturned at the corner of his lips. "Some of us," as if on queue, Josh stumbled out of Sinema, looking rather irritated. "Need a little guidance..." he grinned.

"How much did you take, Josh?" Theo questioned as Carmen jumped up to sit on the trunk of the car. The front end of the car, has it's hood popped open as Theo leant against it.

Josh practically growled, blinking rapidly. "A lot," he grumbled. "And I don't feel a thing," he snapped, obviously angered by the fact his healing powers prevent him from doing his old activities. "You won't, your body heals too fast." Theo informed.

Josh breathed out a dry chuckle, "Yeah?" His false grin shifted into that of a grimace, "Then maybe you should have left me dead." He spat.

Theo gave him an incredulous look, almost amused by his mannerisms.

Carmen watched quietly, she was curious as to what Theo had in plan for Josh. What his 'guidance' was for him.

Theo sighed, feigning a casual demeanour as he turned to face the open hood of his truck. "Or maybe..." he reached out, picking up two jumper cables. "You just need to feel something else," he mumbled, turning back to him.

"Something better," he grinned, passing him the cables.

Reluctantly, Josh takes them, giving him a skeptical look. Theo doesn't say another word, turning once again, back to his car hood and attaching the other end of the cables to his car battery.

A powerful surge of electricity passed through them, the currents reaching Josh in an instant. Surprised, Josh's claws and fangs immediately protrude, his head tossing back as the electricity sparks off him.

The swaying of Carmen's legs pull to halt as she watched them, she furrowed her eyebrows in confusion and slight horror at the scene.

Although, Josh's grin only widened as he roared in ecstasy, gripping the cables tighter.

In a huff, Theo breathed out a loud laugh, breifly glancing at Carmen who was now watching in amazement. Josh was not only taking in all of the electricity, he was also enjoying it thoroughly.

"How does that feel?" He chuckled.

Josh only responded with a large, shakey breath. His eyelids fluttered shut, the smile on his lips still evident.

Carmen approached Corey who stood alone in the car park, seemingly anxious.

"Hey, Corey." She smiled sweetly, moving up beside him. He practically jumped, turning to her. His gaze softened fractionally as he breathed out an exhale of relief. "Hey Carmen," he reciprocated the smile with his own, weak one.

"What are you up to?" She asked, glancing around. No one else was here. What was he doing standing out here all alone?

Corey, followed her eyeline instinctively before turning back to her. "I was going to help with the library cleanup," he shrugged faintly. Carmen's eyebrows furrowed slightly and she frowned, "Alone?"
