Hannah and Simon woke up the next day to an empty house. Neither Lucas or Dave had come home, which means something bad had happened. Not having Lucas' nor Dave's phone number, they couldn't contact them. So both anxiously went to work, trying to force smiles and act like nothing has happened.
Hannah was getting a glass of water in the kitchen when she heard someone walk in. She turned, and saw Duncan in the doorway, a concerned look on his face.
"Are you guys feeling alright?" He asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine," Hannah said, forcing a smile. But it was clear she was not alright; the bags under her eyes, the constant wringing of hands, the clearly fake smiles, and the faraway look in her eyes comfirmed that.
"Are you sure?" Duncan pressed. "You haven't been really.... Focused lately. Did something happen?"
Yes, something very bad. "No, everything's fine. I just.....haven't been sleeping lately," Hannah said. It wasn't a lie, but it wasn't the full truth either.
Duncan didn't buy it, although it answered the reason why she looked so tired. "Well, the office is staying late tonight to play some games and have drinks. You should come, it'll be fun." He offered.
Hannah forced another smile before shaking her head. "I'm sorry - I can't. I'm busy after work."
"Okay," Duncan said, uncertainty in his tone. "But it might help you relax. You seem tense."
"I'm fine," Hannah reassured, and waited for Duncan to disappear down the hall to relax her cheeks from the forced smiles.
Hannah and Simon went back to Hannah's flat after work, declining offers of the get-together at the office. They anxiously wait for Lucas and Dave to arrive, forgetting about tea and Jaffa Cakes.
"Okay, if they don't come in the next," Simon looked down at his watch. "Ten minutes, we're going to head over to the church and demand where they are."
"They captured two Vampires and two Werewolves! I'm pretty sure if we even get close to that 'church', we would be killed!" Hannah argued.
"Neither of you are going near the church, period."
The two Yogs spun around and saw Lucas and Dave, standing in the doorway of the living room. They hadn't heard them come in, and if they knocked, they didn't hear that either.
"Where's Lewis and Paul?!" Simon demanded.
"They're still at the church," Lucas said, sounding irritated. "We had little 'disturbance' as we tried to get them last night."
With that, Dave reached behind them and pulled out a gagged and tied Chris, who was glaring at the other two. He saw Hannah and Simon and said something, which was muffled by the gag.
"Sips?" Hannah asked. She shook her head. "Let him go."
"He was sneaking around the house again," Dave said, speaking fast. "He was doing the same last night." He took Chris' gag off.
"You were spying on us?" Simon asked in disbelief.
"I know it sounds bad," Chris said. "But I knew you guys were hiding something. It was clear on your faces. I wanted to know what happened." He smirked. "You can't get anything past a Canadian."
"You...." Hannah trailed off. "We'll have to tell him. Can't leave him without an explanation now."
Chris raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean? If-" He looked back at Lucas and Dave, but his eyes widened and he gasped.
No one knew why at first, but then a soft glow appeared, and all eyes were on Dave. He looked sheepish and held a hand in front of his face, letting a dark blue glow cover his hand. He held a hand over his glowing eyes and took a step back.
