Khristi's P.O.V.

"Khristi, I want to talk to you for a second." Suga said once I returned downstairs from Suho's room.

"What's up?" I asked, a little concerned about what might be wrong.

"I really want to thank you. Ravi and the others wouldn't have been allowed to stay if you hadn't convinced everyone otherwise. They are my childhood friends, and after believing that Caroline had killed them, seeing them again means the world to me." He began, and I could see his eyes start to tear up as he spoke about his friends. "I want to know how to make it up to you. Daehyun's coming, and we have so much to do to prepare. What can I do?"

I smiled. "I'm glad that you and your friends are back together, and I'm glad we have them on our side. There is one problem with that though. Caroline still has control over them, and they are only protected here because of all the barriers we have set up around the mansion. If you could get Luhan to place a block on their mind to keep her out, it would really help."

Suga smiled. "Okay, I'll go see if Luhan can do it now." He said, turning to head upstairs. "If there's anything else you need, just say."

As he started upstairs, I happened to glance up at Sehun's door, which is directly at the top of the stairs. The black symbol started back at me, and I remembered what I had to do before the fight. "Suga?" I called after him, and he turned back towards me.

"Yeah?" He asked from halfway up the stairs.

"I have something else you can help me with when you're done with Luhan. Meet me in the study. Okay?"

He nodded. "I will." He smiled, then went up the stairs and to the right, to Luhan's room.

Once he was gone, I took a deep breath. I had to collect the guy's keys, but I couldn't do so without being noticed. Suga, however, had an ability that could help with that. Now that that issue out of the way, the only problem was finding the keys. I didn't even know what they looked like, so finding them would be difficult.

"You seem to be thinking pretty hard about something." A voice said from behind me, and I turned to see Mee-Yon smiling at me as she walked down the hallway. "What's stressing you out. Other than the obvious of course."

I smile. "Nothing, I'm just thinking about how this battle ended on the twins timeline. Someone didn't fight with us, taking them and In-soo to someplace safe. I was wondering who it was." I lied, but now I actually was wondering who it was. The woman with the sky blue eyes.

"Don't worry about that. We'll find out when it's time." She smiled. "Now, why don't you tell me what's really bothering you. I know you're lying." She laughed, and led me over to the couch to sit.

"Well..." I hesitated. It was necessary to tell Suga what I was looking for, but Mee-Yon? She knew what would happen if I touched the keys, she wouldn't let me go after them. It was a miracle that Tao didn't lose it when I found his, and I can't remember when I had recieved Luhan's. Who knows how the others would react.

"Well? What is it? Tell me, I might be able to help." Mee-Yon said, waiting for me to continue. Looking over at her, I saw that she was worried. She really wanted to help. It would be nice, since she knew the most about the keys, considering she made them-

Realization hit, and I smiled. "I need you to tell me about when you turned the guys." I said.

"Why? You were there when we planned everything out, remember?" She asked, a little confused.

"There was something we didn't plan out, something you did that M and I didn't tell you about."

At my words, she went deep into thought, trying to recall the events from 170 plus years ago. I watched as her eyes widened with shock, and she looked back up at me, concerned. "Why do you want me to tell you about their keys?"
