"Jo..." Nathan muttered, coughing slightly. Zoe turned to him, she gently pressed her hand on his head to see if it was hurt. Thankfully it wasn't. "Yes what is it?" She asked.
"You know about Raven, yes?" Nathan questioned, looking to her with his weary eyes.
"Mhmm I do..." Zoe nodded bitterly, trying to not delve too deep into her memories of her mother. "What about her?"
"You mentioned before..." Nathan coughed, struggling to get his words out. "That no shapeshifter changes into those who are dead..." He gulped, trying to focus on his questions and not getting dragged away by the pain.
"Yeah, what about it?" She questioned curiously.
Nathan looked to her in surprise, "Well... what did you mean?" He sniggered slightly, trying to gulp it down as to not offend her.
"Oh umm." Zoe muttered. "When we saw Raven the other day at the funeral, and with Oscar, the woman she's disguised as, died several years ago."
Nathan lifted up slightly, looking to her very confused. "Sorry?" He questioned. Zoe nodded nervously in reply, "The woman was called Lindsey."
Nathan pondered about that thought, Lindsey, Lindsey, who was that woman? And why her? "And who did she look like when she killed your mother?" Nathan asked cautiously.
Zoe glanced at him with teary eyes. She didn't want to tell him. She looked away from him, wiping her eyes. "Zoe?" Nathan asked, pressing his hand gently on her shoulder.
She turned around back to face him. It was obvious whatever Raven did petrify her. "She was disguised as my own father."
Nathan's expression lit up with shock, the fact Raven would do that was, horrible. Why would she do that? He thought. "How did you know it was Raven?" Nathan asked. "And not your father?"
Zoe just sniffed in a tear, she shrugged slightly as she tried to come up with an answer without screaming. "Because my father died two years prior, and that she received an order just after killing my mother..."
