Night had come, but I couldn't sleep. I waited and waited, but sleep didn't come. I realized that Dante took off his shoes, and looked at his foot. Sure enough, he had the same mark I did, a purple splotch that looked it was from a stock photo. I studied it a bit, as much as I could from where I was, and I looked at mine some more. I heard nurses coming in, so I quickly feigned sleep.

   "She's found her soulmate, miss." The person who obviously had more power than the nurse stared thoughtfully at my foot, the asked questions that didn't make any sense. Questions like, 'did you see who else glowed green?' 'Do you know who has the matching mark?' questions that were confusing. I pretended to wake up, and I realized the other lady vanished.

    "Miss? May I have some water and possibly painkillers?" She nodded and left, only then did I realize that the lady didn't vanish, simply moved behind the curtain. I tried to process what she was. She wasn't human, but she wasn't a werewolf, nor a meif'wa. She spotted me staring at her and waved her... wand? Before disappearing. The nurse came back with the painkillers and a few sedatives. I knew sedatives were in there, but took them, knowing I needed sleep.
