Daniel wakes up feeling warmer than usual, yawning tiredly he notices the two ladies on either side of him and can't help thinking he should strip , he shakes his head as Vivian wakes up , hugging him tight . Margaret follows suit barely giving him time to breath.

" I'm so glad your OK."

"... I ...can't ...breath."

"Ooo sorry " the girls both giggle at him, making Daniel role his eyes. Margaret stands up to get dressed and Vivian looks at her shocked at her boldness, she begins to think her theory was actually true.

" Ohh, don't worry he won't peep" Margaret says to Vivian as she walks away, Vivian finds Daniel looking away and smiles feeling elated at the fact that he  was a decent person. Daniel tries to stand up but flinches at the intense pain from his stomach. His injury still wasn't healed and that was a cause for concern , it wouldn't usually take that long, no matter how bad the situation, he would have to ignore this and think about the more important matters on ground, matter of fact they needed to leave for somewhere safer and Margaret had powers. It was still a shock to him how she had reacted to it herself. Daniel groaned in frustration as he rubbed his head, this would be a Hassel.

Vivian and Margaret walked out to see Daniel deep in thought, a worried look stretched across Margaret's face as she faced him with full concern.

"Daniel? Are you OK?"

"No I'm not" he snaps. I'm not healing, and we need to leave now....... And your powers are a little bit of a shock to.......me and its best we stay far away from here now for our own good."  "I'm sorry for raising my voice I just can't think straight now " Daniel raises a table with his mind to make sure he's powers were still intact. Daniel sigh's hard and rubs his head as he composes his thoughts, such a load of cumbersome experiences in just a day, to him this was hell.
Within the hour all three had packed just what was needed for their move, they agreed to do everything else as soon as they settled down and left in the late afternoon , Daniel was still in pains although not as bad as it was. The sun glowed softly as it tried to rest, casting just enough light on the environment as the three drove out of the city. Daniel's chest rose and fell slowly as he slept at the back seat with Vivian and Margaret at the front, the journey was a quiet one as both girls thought about what would happen in their future.

"We have to make sure we all talk Viv, too much is at stake here and I'm concerned about Daniel, his body doesn't even take up to an hour and now its been more than 24 hours with the same result, it's almost like there's something stopping the healing process." An idea hit Vivian like a light bulb went on in her head.

"That's it Margaret! Your a genius, there has to be an issue with him , I think I know how to deal with this." At their destination, Vivian set out to put her plan to motion, this had to work or they were looking at a really big problem.

"What!!! I am not doing that and nothing is going to make me." Daniel said with a scowl on his face.

"But I've seen you go through the process Daniel , your body would heal itself almost instantly, please Daniel think about this, it puts us all in a difficult position."

"I can't relive that moment again, I won't ." Daniel replied with almost a whisper.

"Then I suppose you'd rather die" Margaret retorted ,the anger clear in her voice,"  I won't let you die Daniel whether you like it or not, I can't lose you and I won't" she said at the top of her voice before stalking out of the room with teary eyes. Daniel agreed almost instantly after witnessing an angry Margaret, she almost never got angry at him, he goes into a light trance back to the worst day in his life. Vivian and Margaret stand a few feet away to avoid being victims of their own plan, in a few minutes Daniel starts to shift uncomfortably and Vivian takes it has her cue to start , she creates a small dagger and cuts Daniel's arm fast but still gets pushed back by strong force. Margaret runs to her and is held up by Daniel at her neck, she stares into his eyes intensely then hits him with all her might where the sun didn't shine, even in such a state Daniel had to feel that. Vivian took the liberty of knocking him out with a killer punch.

"I don't think he'll forgive us this time Maggie"

"Haha I guess so, second time we hit him in two days, how sweet."

Both girls laughed hard at themselves, things would go well, their plans had worked  accordingly, the rage had forced his body to heal itself again, at least this was a good turn.

Daniel woke with a pounding head and a bruised ego, he could still remember Vivian punching him.  His wound had healed and He shook his head as he smirked Vivian had won the bet without getting herself killed first, he now had two ladies in his life who wanted to protect him and he wouldn't have it any other way. He walked into the kitchen finding them busy .
"Hey "

"Daniel! Are..... Are you OK ?"

Daniel gives a small snicker, " yeah I'm fine , thank you. " Vivian runs over and hugs him while she sobs , Margaret just smiles , she's happy, too happy. They had hope now, and they were willing to fight for it, to the last days of their lives.
