The next day as other students filed to their respective classes Marshall's lifeless body lay in the hospital bay. Deep in Marshall's psyche the Entity floated around.

“I got the sword” said Marshall

“Ah you figured it out” said the Entity

“Yes – what must I do next?” asked Marshall

The Entity shimmered and floated about the space for sometime.

“Next thing you must do is seek out the stone, that sword is doomed – plunge it steadfast or hear it boom” said the Entity

Marshall closed his eyes and felt himself being pulled back into the conscience realm. As he opened his eyes he was alone, staring at the white ceiling he began to feel like he was totally alone.

“Good morning Marshall, sleep well?” said a voice

As Marshall turned towards the voice his brain searched for the name.

“Mom?” he said shooting up

Cassandra surged forward when suddenly a flashback slapped into Marshall's eyes. It was him grabbing Cassandra's throat.

“NO!” exclaimed Marshall

Cassandra stopped and walked towards her son.

“Marshall you can't hurt me – then or now” said Cassandra

“Mom are you really here?” he asked

She leaned in and hugged him then got up and to the door.

“Mom wait” said Marshall jumping out of bed.

But she never stopped

“MOM PLEASE!” he begged

As she got further away from him he felt the room grow far away. Suddenly she was gone.

“Mom!” he screamed

He tried to pull the door open but it wouldn't open.

“MOM!, MOM!, MOM!” he bellowed

When Sawyer, Penelope and Kale entered the hospital bay they saw Marshall slamming his head against the wall Sawyer instantly closed his eyes.

“Marshall?” asked Sawyer looking around

“Sawyer my birth mom was here” he replied tears streaming from his eyes

“Your really hurt” said Sawyer

Penelope and Kale moved Marshall back to his bed. Just then the nurse Madame Xu came in and upon seeing Marshall's bleeding forehead grabbed a square of gauze and some tape.

“Huh” gasp Sawyer “Madame Xu he's about to wake”

“Oh my head” said Marshall placing a hand on his head.

A flash erupted on the gauze as the wound healed. Marshall jumped up right as rain, he bashed through the door and towards Professor Grays Control Of Kenises and Weapons Class. The sword appeared on his back. As Marshall entered the classroom he glanced around. In one corner sat a table on it lay weapons of different sizes. On the wall behind it was mirale of Professor Gray.

“Marshall come join us” said Gray across the room
