"There's nothing we can do?" Uncle Derek asks.

"Nothing. And we'll lose without her. We barely made it out alive the first time." I reply. "But she says she has to do this. She has to pass on her duties as guardian. And something else..." I smirk.

"What?" Aunt Crystal asks.

"She wants you to walk her down the aisle." Mom says to Uncle Derek.

He shakes his head. "Damn it. I have to. Don't I?"

"Oh yes." Dad says. "She wants to get married."

"To the man she loves."

"We have the medicine to help her, but it's not made for Hentavirus. It will only make her feel a bit better, for an hour, two at the most. We have just a limited supply."

"Can I heal her? I'm willing to die at Abaddon's hand than let my sister die." Fianna says, tears in her eyes.

"It will only make it worse. Magic makes her worse." Aunt Crystal explains.

Derek looks around and sighs. "Then let's go plan a wedding."

As we all separate, I look up at the sky. "Aunt Cammy, please, we need your help."
