"No!" Victor exclaims.
"We have to get out of here!" Vera says.
Victor and Vera run away.
Everyone stops pretending.
"TYLER!!" Danya shouts, teas filling in her eyes.
"He can't..." Jamal tears up. "He can't be gone too..."
Sami comes out. "I'm so sorry.."
"It's okay." Elayna says. "You would've been caught if you interfered.."

That night, Jamal wakes up to Senkhara over him.
He gasps. "What are you doing here?!"
"I can't believe you let the Sorceress die!"
"We don't know that!" Jamal says. "We're going to end this!"
"You better, Sorcerer."
"Sorcerer?" Jamal asks.
"Yes. Isn't it obvious? You are the Sorcerer. Who else could it be? You are the closest boy to Annika. You and her. The Sorcerer and the Sorceress."

Meanwhile, Hunter goes into the kitchen for a snack.
"Long time, no see.." a dark, familiar voice says from behind him.
Hunter whips around to see Rufus.
"Rufus.." Hunter gasps, shocked and crestfallen.
"It's been a while." Rufus grins.
"Yeah, last time I saw you... you kidnapped me and my friends and I killed you."
"Well, I survived.. I escaped and found Vera, she healed me and took care of me."
"What do you want this time?"
"The same thing. Immortality."
Rufus knocks out Hunter and drags his body outside and into the back of his van.
