Lucas rolled his head to the side, pain ebbing through his skull. The room he was in smelled musty, like an old person's home. As if it hadn't been lived in for ages.

He jolted as soon as he recalled what had happened seconds before he was unconscious. Kai.
Where was she?

Wherever he was, whoever brought him there, had not restrained him. He was free to walk around the small room.

Granted it had no furniture. The only thing other than himself was a rough blanket. There weren't even any windows.

He was pacing around the door-less room, trying to figure out how he had gotten inside of it when a snap came from behind him.

Lucas turned to see that Trevor had somehow appeared inside this room. "How the hell-" Lucas flinched back and scanned the room around where Trevor was.

"Apparation." Trevor shrugged. "It's a wizard thing."

"Why am I here? Where is Kai?" Lucas demanded, crossing his arms to try to put on a firm exterior.

"She's alive, for now." Trevor said, somewhat begrudgingly. "As for why you're here, that's up to Morgana. Though I suspect it may have something to do with using your life to get Kai to do something."

"So all you do is follow her orders huh? Like an obedient dog?" Lucas scoffed. "Do you really think she cares enough about me to do anything if it concerned me living? You really overestimate her. She doesn't give a damn about me." He felt a pit drop in his stomach as he said so, but he felt as though the words were true.

Trevor raised one of his bushy eyebrows. "Better not let Morgana hear you say that. It'll bring death on you sooner."

"So you're not going to tell her everything I'm saying? Isn't that why you're in here? To report back to her?" Lucas retorted as he pointed accusingly at Trevor's chest.
When he said nothing, it dawned on him.

"You're not supposed to be in here are you?" Lucas squinted at him, watching Trevor's face flicker between a blank expression and a sliver of guilt.
He stepped closer to him, waiting for him to reply.

Trevor shrugged again. "I'm not a dog."

"Then why are you in here at all? Why come talk to me if she didn't tell you to? I have a suspicion that if she knew you were in here, without her permission, than you would get into huge trouble. So why risk it? What was so important about talking to me?" Lucas quickly demanded.

Trevor pushed past Lucas and began pacing the small span of the room. "I need to know something." He paused, tapping his chin and looking over his shoulder as though he were being watched. He took in a deep breath before whispering. "Can you break hypnotic type spells?"

The question took Lucas aback. "Hypnotic spells?" He asked, just to be sure he had heard clearly.

When Trevor nodded, Lucas dug into his mind to see if Will had mentioned anything of the sort.

"I don't know, why would you need to know that?" He admitted, his sky blue eyes clouded as he tried even harder to remember anything.

"I assume you know of Morgana's eye thing right?" When Lucas nodded, Trevor continued. "She's not entirely wrong about that situation, someone does use our eyes so see out of sometimes, and sometimes he can control us by doing so. I figured out a way to keep him out of my head for small periods of time, which is why I risked this conversation. Do you think you may be able to figure out how to separate my mind from this guy completely?"
His eyes were large, determined, yet pleading.

Trevor seemed desperate to get rid of this guy's control.

"I can try, but it may take a while." Lucas caves in. If Trevor was this distraught from the guy, whoever he was, being inside his mind, then maybe Trevor wasn't the real enemy.
