Max sighs and shakes his head a bit, heading to Kayla's room, knocking on the door gently. Jake was still asleep on top of Aaron, Aaron being awake and looking towards the door quickly. "Mmf.." Carter was awake and was playing with Kayla's shirt quietly, looking over to the door curiously, cooing quietly. Lucy stays clutched onto Ezekiel. The doctor frowns even more, knowing what this meant. "Mm.. And where did the others come from?" Jaidan sighs shakily, nuzzling him softly. "If Y-You're sad.. Then I'm sad.. And I don't want to be sad which means you're not allowed to be sad.. Only happy or neutral.. Let's.." he thinks for several moments. "Let's do something that little boys do with their fathers.." he smiles a bit weakly at him. "That way I have a memory of it that I can remember forever.." Kayla was still asleep, snuggled up to Aaron, and Athena had made her way into the room, and was sleeping, shivering on the opposite side of the bed away from everyone, without covers. Zarron sighs shakily, really not wanting to share this, but thinking that maybe, even though this situation came unwanted, it would help. "Battle.. mostly.. sometimes I'd um... do it to myself to.. prepare for expectant pain.. or... to test the limits.. of it...." Vincent furrows his brow. "Mm... like what...?"
The doctor let's out a long sigh, gesturing for him to put his suit back on. "Mm.. have you ever had any thoughts of suicide or wanting to sleep forever and not wake up?" Aaron lets out a long sigh, nudging Kayla softly, whispering to her. "Can you get Jake off of me..? Someone's at the door.." Carter looks over to Athena. Max sighs, waiting. Lucy looks up at Ezekiel, climbing up to his shoulders again and holding onto his hair carefully, laying her head on top of his. "I'ma stay up here so I don't get dropped.." Jaidan thinks deeply on this. "Um.. I.. Don't really know actually.. What's.. What's something fun that we can both do..? We could.. Try to ice skate..? Not sure how good is be at it, but we could try.." Zarron quickly grabs the suit, starting to get it back on. He let out a quiet, "..no.." and without meaning to, it sounded rather forced, as he thought, because though he hadn't at all any time recently, he had when he had been living with Vincent quite a lot. "Well.. I guess so, actually.." he murmured, not exactly to the doctor, just to himself, as he really didn't think it applied at that moment and he just wanted to be out of there, but it was unfortunately audible. Vincent's face suddenly went pale and completely emotionless. Ezekiel sighs as he waited. Kayla groans awake. "Okay, okay.." she stretches lightly and sits up as she rubbed her eyes, shifting and pulling off Jake with a soft grunt. Jaidan looks confused, and worried, frowning deeply again, wining and hugging him as tight as he could, having no clue what he said wrong, sniffling and tears coming to his eyes, feeling like he was just making everything worse. "M-M-Mmf..." Jake stayed asleep, his head falling into her lap. Aaron gets up, answering the door and seeing Max. "Hey.." he then sees Ezekiel, looking extremely confused. "Uh.." Max sighs. "He's here for Kayla." He walks into the room. Carter sees them and wines loudly, trying to get back to Kayla, looking ready to cry, frantically grabbing for her chest, almost screaming at her. The doctor sighs shakily, nodding a bit and writing something down on the clipboard. "We're going to admit you into the unit, alright? The nurses and doctors are very nice there. They'll take care of you and help you to feel better. And we'll get in contact with someone to take care of your nephew." Vincent clenches his jaw shut, not pushing him away as he didn't want to hurt him, but trying desperately to stay calm as anger slowly filled him. Zarron's eyes widen, as really, he didn't expect this to happen. "Wh- No!! I can't- I- I'm not- there's no-" he huffs. "I'm not going!!" Ezekiel smiles as he sees Kayla. Kayla blinks her eyes more, seeing Ezekiel and immediately jumping from the bed, even though she was still in her bed attire and jumps into his arms, not hearing Carter through her excitement. Since she was so small, Ezekiel was able to hold her just like a child with no problem. "Eze!!" She was beaming happily, having wrapped her arms around his neck and snuggles up to his chest. Ezekiel chuckles. "You're still just as adorable as always, sweetheart.." Lucy grips onto Ezekiel tightly, huffing a bit. Aaron growls loudly at Ezekiel, clenching his fists. "Who the hell are you?!" Carter starts to cry loudly, tears streaming down his face and he looked terrified, not knowing what to do without Kayla holding him, screaming as loud as he could. Lucy folds her ears against her head. Max glares angrily at Carter, scoffing at him. Jake shifts, bit stays asleep, just covering his head with a pillow. The doctor sighs and shakes her head a bit. "If you don't, then you'll have to come back here weekly for Examination and evaluation for as long as we are fit to say you're safe for yourself and others. And there's still a possibility you'll end up here." Jaidan looked terrified, pulling away and.frantically moving away from him, falling off the couch, his bottom lip quivering and he looked scared, not of Vincent, but of himself and the fact he felt like he was hurting Vincent, tears starting to run down his cheeks. "I'm so so sorry.. I-I'll just leave you alone.. I-I won't bother you ever again.. J-Just please.. P-Please don't be mad at me.. I-I can't.. P-Please.." Kayla kisses Ezekiel on the cheek, giggling happily. Ezekiel looks up to Aaron. "Ezekiel." Zarron frowns deeper, huffing. "And if I do go..? How long then..?" Vincent shakes his head. "No, Jaidan.. you just hit a weak spot you didn't know about.. it isn't your fault..." The doctor sighs. "Could be anywhere from 72 hours to being moved to a permanant residency. Depends on the person." Aaron huffs, trying to rip Kayla off of Ezekiel. "Yeah, well, get off my fiancé." He looks to Kayla. "And stop kissing him. You're only supposed to kiss me." Carter was squirming around wildly and falls off the bed, but in a spot where they couldn't see him, a crack sounding as he went silent, his screaming stopping, Lucy noticing this and quickly climbing off of Ezekiel, crawling quickly over to where she had seen him fall, her eyes widening as she saw him limp on the ground, his body twisted in a weird way. Lucy quickly picks him up, examining him, wining quietly and seeing his spine wasn't in the correct spot, not knowing what to do and just hugging him, hoping he would be okay. Jaidan didn't look any better, continuing to let his tears fall down his cheeks. "Th-That's all I do.. I-I can't.. I-I shouldn't be around Y-You.. O-Or anyone.." he tries to get up, using his hand that still had a broken wrist, crying harder and trying to get out of his office, holding his hurt arm close to his chest, having paid no attention to it earlier. Zarron went pale, knowing he probably wouldn't have to worry about this, but it disturbed him all the same. "Permanent... residency...?" Ezekiel rolls his eyes. "I haven't done anything. She's on me." Kayla frowns deeply, trying desperately to stay with Ezekiel. "A-Aaron, stop..!" Kayla notices Carter in Lucy's arms and her eyes widen, and she lets out a horrified shriek of alarm and panic. Vincent frowns deeply, quickly getting up and grabbing him. "Hey, stop.. stay here..." The doctor sighs and nods. "Yes. It's for patients who need to have a more stable, permanent place." Aaron quickly looks over to where they were, him quickly letting go of her and bolting over as fast as he could, scooping Carter up out of her arms and screaming as he saw his spine, tears instanty coming to his eyes. "CARTER!!" He looked absolutely terrified, having no clue what to do and looking around frantically, desperate and panicked. Lucy wines loudly, moving away from them. Max sees Carter and frowns deeply. "M-Mmf.." Jaidan was shaking violently, crying harshly and covering his arm from his view. "I-I shouldn't b-b-be near you!! I-I only hurt!! I-I can't D-Do that to you!!" Zarron sighs shakily. "R-Right.. o-okay.. um.. what's that like...?" Kayla bursts out into violent tears, hugging onto Ezekiel tightly. Ezekiel frowns deeply and goes over to them. "Hey, can I see him...?" He carefully lets Kayla down on the corner of the bed where she continues to cry harshly. Vincent hugs him from behind tightly. Jaidan pressed himself against Vincent, it clear he wanted to be with him, and clearly needed it, but he also looked scared, wining loudly as he continued to cry, mostly from the pain of his wrist at this point as he was squeezing it tightly with his other hand. "I-Im sorry.. I-I want to be a b-b-b-better.. S-Son.. I'm not G-Good enough.. I'm sorry.. I'm sorry.." the doctor thinks for a few moments. "Mm.. Well.. I personally think its good for people who don't have family's. I only say that because, typically they don't let you see anyone very often. It could be months before you see anyone you know. And seeing as you have a nephew, I'd say it probably wouldn't be the best thing for you. But that's not up to me." Aaron hands him over carefully, instantly collapsing to his knees, crying violently and harshly into his hands. Lucy wines, going over to Ezekiel and climbing up him and onto his shoulder, looking down at Carter and whispering. "Is he.. dead..?" Carter's pulse was very very faint, as well as his breathing, it clear his spine had been snapped and part of his skull as well. Vincent shakes his head. "Shush. Enjoy the Hug." Zarron thinks about this. "..mm.. I see.." Ezekiel shakes his head lightly, putting a hand against his skull, feeling for the fracture, finding it, and then using his magic after a long sigh to meld it back. Jaidan turns around, hugging him back tightly with his good arm, resting his head on his chest and seeming to calm down quickly, closing his eyes and taking deep breaths, letting out a shaky sigh. "M-Mmf.." the doctor sighs. "So. Do you want to be admitted? Or we could set up some weekly appointments." Levi, now, was curled up and crying harshly, shaking violently as the nurse that was with him was being rude to him, not helping him at all with anything. Aaron sees him do this and looked hopeful, sniffling and watching him closely. Lucy watched with curious eyes, whispering in admiration. "..that's so cool.." Vincent pats his back. Zarron looks off. "Weekly... I suppose..." Ezekiel then carefully turned him over, setting his palm against the center of his spine, using his magic again as he closed his eyes to click the spine back in space. The golden bands on his arms, as well as his tattoos glowed bright golden as he did this. Aaron gets up, watching Carter closely, tears still running down his cheeks but he was silent, sniffling and just focusing on wanting Carter to be okay, knowing he wouldn't be able to forgive himself if anything bad were to happen to him. Jaidan nuzzles him softly, sighing shakily and sniffling. "..M-Mmf.. ..I-I need to wrap M-M-My arm..." The doctor nods, going over to a computer that was in the room. "What day of the week would be best for you?" Ezekiel opens his eyes again as he finished, and carefully hands Carter to the still crying Kayla, who held him very very carefully, but close. "Th-Thank you.. S-so much.. E-Eze.." Zarron thinks. "Mm... Monday..?" Vincent nods, and lets go of him carefully. Jaidan sighs shakily, still wanting to be with him and grabbing onto his hand tightly, heading towards his room with him. "Y-You're staying with me.. I-I.. I still want to do something fun with Y-You.. B-But.. Y-You choose.." once they got to his room he grabs some bandages he had in his dresser, seemingly having done this before and begins to make a soft cast from his elbow down his wrist, around his thumb and around his hand. The doctor nods, typing stuff into the computer and glancing at him. "You may go now. Every Monday until we say otherwise." Aaron quickly moves over to them, examining Carter. "I-Is H-He okay..?" Lucy peeks her head around to look at Ezekiel's face, smiling a bit at him. "Can you teach me to use my powers like that??" Zarron nods, sighing shakily and going to leave, still feeling very uncomfortable, and rethinking many, many things as he made his way back to Levi's room, feeling bad about making him wait this long, and coming back with nothing. Vincent watches him closely. Ezekiel nods to Lucy. "They come with the territory.." Kayla nods a little. "Thanks to Uncle Eze.." Lucy nods rapidly, just looking like she wanted to have the powers he had. Aaron raises both eyebrows at this statement, his hand holding Carter's hand and he jerks his head to look at Ezekiel. "Vincent has a brother?! That's an ANGEL?!" Levi had his head under a pillow and was covered by a blanket, the nurse being gone and the room was pitch black as all the lights were off, only Levi's panicked breathing able to be heard. Jaidan sighs shakily, looking over to him once he was done, muttering. "..It's my drawing hand..." Kayla shrugs. "I dunno. I've always known him as my uncle. So I guess so." Ezekiel smiles awkwardly, thinking it better not to say anything. Zarron frowns and quickly turns the lights on, hurrying to him. "Levi?!" Vincent frowns. "Oh.."
Aaron looked shocked. "What the hell..?" Lucy giggles happily. "He's also my second daddy!!" She moves into his arms again, snuggling up to his chest. Carter shifts in Kayla's arms very very slightly. Jaidan looked miserable, trying to pick up his pencil with his hurt hand, huffing in frustration and throwing it across the room at the wall, slamming his head down into a pillow. "Why did it have to be my drawing hand..? How long is it going to take to heal..?" Levi's tail was sticking out slightly from under the blanket but other than that, he didn't show any other part of himself, not responding, just continuing to breath in panic, his body not moving at all under the blanket. Ezekiel clears his throat. "Anyways.. I'm glad I got to see you again.." Kayla nods, smiling warmly back to him. "Me too.." Vincent lets out a long sigh. "It depends..." Zarron frowns deeper and pulls him out from under the covers carefully. Aaron sighs shakily. "Mmf.." he looked a little jealous, frowning deeply and looking off. Carter let's out a quiet wine, shifting again. Aaron glances at him before moving over to Athena, scooping her up and holding her close to his chest, knowing she was asleep but just wanting to hold her. "M-Mm.." Lucy nuzzles Ezekiel softly. "Sooooo.. Are you my grand..Uncle..? My grand-uncle?? My grand-uncle-daddy??" She looked very confused. Levi looked even more pale then he normally did, his eyes wide with fear and his leg looked broken, him shaking violently, eyes pinned on the wall, him having no shirt or pants on which showed that some of his scales had been either ripped off and the spot they were in was bleeding, or they were bent. Jaidan huffs angrily, clearly extremely upset about this and keeping his face hidden in the pillow, mumbling into it. "Just kill me alreadyyyyyy.." Ezekiel glances at Aaron before sitting next to Kayla, looking to Carter. "Aha.. he's a wonderful child.." Kayla giggles lightly. "I know.." Athena lets out a small reactant wine, before going quiet again and nuzzling up against his chest. Hearing Lucy, Ezekiel laughs awkwardly. "Um.. Grand-uncle.." Zarron's eyes widen. "What the hell?!" Vincent shakes his head. "No, Jaidan..."
Carter's eyes slowly blink open and he looks up at Kayla, immediately moving his hand to grab onto her shirt, wining quietly and holding onto her tightly, snuggling up close. Lucy tilts her head. "But you're my second daddy too... But I can just say you're my grand-uncle to make it easier.." she smiles brightly at him, shifting in his arms and nuzzling him softly. Aaron sighs shakily, holding her tightly and moving over to Jake with her, laying down next to him, wrapping his other arm around him, covering Athena with a blanket as he saw she was cold, whispering to her. "I love you, baby girl.." Jaidan scoffs lightly, turning his head slightly so Vincent could see one of his eyes. "I'm gunna be bored for the rest of my life now. I'm crippled. And not even a cool crippled. Just. Crippled." Levi very very slowly tilts his head slightly to look at Zarron, looking absolutely horrified, his mouth moving but nothing coming out but small whimpers and wines. Vincent frowns deeper. "No, Jaidan.. it will heal..." Kayla lets out a long sigh, looking to him. "Mm..." she gets an idea. "Oo! I've gotta do some preparation for something, do you mind going for a little bit? I'll call you when you can come back if you want!" Ezekiel raises an eyebrow. "Mm- Uh, sure, sure.. of course." He nods, getting up off the bed. Kayla smiles brightly at him. Zarron looked extremely worried, and quickly bolts out of the room, and to the exit of the hospital.Max was still in the doorway and sighs, thinking about his date with karma, smiling a bit to himself as he thought. "Mm.." he looks to Ezekiel. "You can hang out with me for now if you want. I'ma probably hang out with Karma but you can come meet him and whatnot. We're uh going out at some point but that can wait til later." Lucy giggles a little quietly, whispering to Ezekiel quietly so no one else could hear. "They're super cute togetherrrrr.." Levi doesn't move, him seeming afraid to, whimpering louder as he was being bounced around, clearly not liking it, still trying to speak but clearly struggling to form words. A doctor goes to stop Zarron but wasn't able to get him before he got out. Jaidan groans loudly and rolls over on his bed over to Vincent, clearly trying to be dramatic and stopping when his head was next to Vincent's leg. He looks up at him. "Is there anything we can do together with my crippledness?? I'd prefer not to just sit here and rot.." He looks off towards the wall, waving his hand dismissively at it and looking back up at Vincent, smiling at him. Ezekiel nods. "Okay." He chuckles at Lucy. Zarron huffs, going into his dragon form and shooting off, holding Levi in his talons. Vincent groaned in exhaustion. "Talk to Ezekiel if you're that bothered.." Jaidan's eyes widen and his face goes red again. "But that's weird!! That-That's like.. That's like trying to talk to your crush!!" Lucy giggles wildly as Max headed towards Karma's room, Max knocking once they got there. Lucy looks up at Ezekiel, whispering. "You're cool with gay people, right..?" Levi manages to get a few words out. "..D-Dark.. ..H-Hurt.." He looks down at his leg, seeing it out of place and looking even more horrified, whimpering more, not knowing what was going on, tears starting to run down his cheeks. "..Why..?.." Vincent frowns deeper. "Fine, then don't.. but I need to talk to him.." Ezekiel raises an eyebrow. "Yeah." Karma groans as he carefully gets up, holding his hand against his wound as he opened the door, his eyes widening as he sees Ezekiel. Zarron huffs. "Stay calm." He flaps his wings harder. Jaidan shakes his head vigorously, wining. "I still wanna see him!! ..I can just admire him from a distance.." he looks off. Lucy nods. Max smiles at Karma but then sees his eyes widen, glancing back at Ezekiel as he hugged him. "Have you met him?" He double checks to see if he still had his rosary on. Levi wraps his arms around Zarrons leg, crying harshly and seeing his scales as well. "..It.. ..They're broken!!.." Vincent looked upset. "Jaidan, please.. you're getting difficult.." Karma didn't hug back, just staring. "Um.. yeah..." he did, and Ezekiel was eying it. Zarron kept his eyes straight. "I know."
Karma looked uncomfortable. Jaidan looked confused. "M-Mmf.." He sighs shakily, moving back up to his pillows and curling up in a blanket. "I'll come find you later.." Levi screams, looking terrified and quickly putting a hand to his chest, coughing violently for a few moments, looking miserable, confused, and scared. Max sighs shakily, pulling back and glancing at Ezekiel. "Mm.." he glances at his rosary, muttering to him. "Does he know about both of you..?" Vincent nods, slowly separating, and then leaving the room. Zarron looks down at him. "Stay CALM. It's OKAY." Karma nods, looking even more uncomfortable as he clutched onto his rosary. Max notices how uncomfortable he was and quickly moves closer to him, wrapping his arm around him protectively. "Mmf.." He looks to Ezekiel. "Mm.. Maybe you should go somewhere else.." He wraps his other arm around Karma, pulling him into a tight hug and holding his head against his chest, nuzzling him and trying to tell him it was okay, rubbing his back softly. Lucy looked extremely confused, looking up at Ezekiel for answers, climbing up onto his shoulder again, watching them from above. Jaidan sighs shakily, curling up into a tight ball and letting himself go, starting to cry harshly, clutching onto a pillow with his good hand. Levi looks up at him, looking down at the ground below them and seeming to panic even more, crying harder, it clear he wasn't actually scared of where they were, just scared of the fact he didn't know what was going on, but he tries to calm down, putting his trust in Zarron and wrapping his arms back around his leg, just hoping they'd land soon. Ezekiel frowns deeply, stepping away. "..oh.. um... ..okay.." he hesitates, gulping and watching them, his eyes flickering between them, before he quickly bolts off. Karma sighs shakily, digging his face into Max's shoulder. Vincent sees Ezekiel as he was running off and Frowns, going up to him and stopping him. "We should talk.." Ezekiel nods flatly. Soon, Zarron swooped down, and landed, it looking to be another city.
Max quickly goes Inside karma's room with him, keeping him in the tight hug and sighing shakily, kissing his cheek softly. "Mmf.. I didn't know you knew him.. I wouldn't have brought.him over if I had known you didn't like him.." He hugs him tighter, still being careful of his wound. Jaidan gets up, wiping his face and after a moment he gets up from his bed, quietly going out into the hall and following Vincent, hiding behind a corner as he watched them, admiring Ezekiel, smiling a little at the sight of him. Lucy looked extremely confused but also very interested, resting her chin on top of Ezekiel's head, staying completely silent as she knew if she spoke she'd be forced to go away, not wanting that, wanting to stay with Ezekiel. Levi lays on the ground, still shaking and whimpering quietly. He looks up at him, sniffling. "..M-M-M-Mmf.. ..H-Help..." he moves his hand to one of the bent scales, touching it and trying to fold it back, it just snapping off and he whimpers louder. Karma nods weakly. "I-I Don't.. I-I just..." he frowns deeply. "He.. He was dead..." Vincent glances at Lucy as he sat them both down on a couch. "Lucy, could you leave for a moment..?" Ezekiel looked nervous, carefully taking her down from his head. Zarron holds him close. "I'm taking you to a different one. I can't help you on my own unfortunately, but I'll be there the whole time. I promise." He goes into the hospital he landed at. Lucy frowns deeply. "M-Mmf.. I guess.. But please come get me as soon as you're done.. I wanna hang out with Ezekiel some more.." She crawls off quickly. Jaidan hides behind the couch, listening closely. Max nods understandingly, sitting on his bed with him and moving him into his lap, petting his head softly. "It's okay now.. It's just us.. We can even get ready for our date if you want.." He nuzzles him softly. Levi nods a bit weakly, still crying harshly. A doctor quickly comes over to them as she sees Levi crying and his state. "Hey, what's going on?" Levi presses his face into Zarrons chest, looking scared out of his mind. Ezekiel lets out a long sigh, watching Vincent as he frowned deeply, staring at the ground with cloudy eyes. "I need to.. talk about.. Mom..." Ezekiel looks surprised. "A-Are you sure..?" Jaidan hears this and looked skeptical, frowning a bit, but also hearing about his father, frowning even more, knowing this was a very sensitive topic for Vincent. Vincent nods. "Something happened.." Ezekiel looks concerned. "What..? What was it...?" Vincent pauses for a moment, gulping before continuing. "She called me yesterday.. I haven't been able to stop thinking about it..." Ezekiel raises an eyebrow. "Wh.. did you pick up..?" Vincent shakes his head. "And now I'm worried..." Jaidan frowns deeply. "M-Mmf.." he thinks deeply about the fact that Vincent may have lied to him, tears welling up in his eyes, just hoping he was wrong. He also thinks about Vincent's mother calling him, also hoping nothing bad was going to happen. Karma nods. "Yeah.. id like that..."Max sighs shakily and nods, kissing him softly before pulling back, glancing down at himself and thinking deeply. "Mm.. There's no way I'll fit in Jaidan's clothes.. Could I maybe borrow like a shirt and jeans or something? You'll need to bundle up a bit more than me probably since it's a bit chilly there." Zarron huffs. "He needs to get into a room quickly. I'd examine him, I'm not sure what all is wrong, but hurry." The doctor nods, gesturing to a room and quickly heading there. Levi whimpers, sniffling. "Y-You.. H-Have to H-Hold my h-hand..." Vincent sighs shakily. "I... I know because of who I am I shouldn't be saying this, but.. I wish I had more of father's blood.. so I could've been more angel.. I... I feel like that could've fixed everything.." Jaidan looked horrified by this statement, his back pressed against the couch and he was dead silent, not making any noise whatsoever, just sitting there with a hurt, confused expression on his face. Ezekiel nods a little at this. "I.. Get that.. and.. honestly... I know I didn't know Red very well, but.." he laughs flatly. "I really don't know how he fell in love with her.." Vincent chuckles weakly. "Me neither.." Jaidan still looked awful, wanting desperately to confront Vincent, getting more sure as time went by that they may be brothers, considering it greatly. Karma tilts his head, chuckling a little. "I'm not sure you'd fit in [my] clothes either.." Max chuckles a bit as well, nuzzling him softly. "True, true. I guess I could just wear what I'm wearing then. I'll buy some eventually." Zarron quickly follows. "I will." Levi sighs shakily. The nurse sighs, glancing at them and gesturing to the bed. "Do you know what happened?" Levi shakes his head very slightly to Zarron, signifying he had absolutely no idea. Ezekiel puts a hand against Vincent's shoulder. "Well.. about the call... did she leave a voicemail..? Or anything...?" Vincent nods. "I.. " he sighs shakily. "I've been too scared to listen to it.." Jaidan's eyes widen even more, the memory of his mother killing his father flooding back into his head and he closes his eyes tightly, just listening closely to them. Ezekiel frowns a bit. "Mm.. maybe you could do it now..? With me...?" Vincent nods. "Yeah.. maybe..." he gets out his phone, which he hadn't bothered to place elsewhere, as he didn't use him phone other than for necessary and sparing uses in the first place. Jaidan sighs shakily, keeping his eyes clothes but moving closer to where Vincent was so he could hear better. Karma nods, and grunts as he moves away, going to search through his closet for warmer clothes for himself. Max let's out a long sigh, sitting on Karma's bed, watching him and smiling a little. "You've got a wonderful body, you know.. You should be very proud of it.." Zarron sets him onto it. "No..." Levi clutches onto Zarrons hand tightly. The nurse sighs, going over to the bed and smiling warmly at Levi. "Hey, sweetheart.. Can I take a look at you?" Levi sniffles, staring at her and nodding very slightly. The nurse nods back, shifting him to relieve pressure completely off his hurt leg, examining it closely and letting out a long sigh. "Your ankle is definitely broken. But it doesn't look too too bad. You should be able to just walk with a boot and crutches if necessary." Levi wines a bit, snuggling up closer to Zarrons leg. The nurse sighs, examining the rest of him. "Mm.." she sighs, looking to Zarron. "There isn't anything we can do for his scales. But we can put him in a boot and it looks like he has a fever. We can help with that as well." Levi looked really worried about wearing a boot. Karma blushes brightly, sighing shakily. "Mmf..." he clearly didn't agree. Zarron searches him with his eyes. "Okay.." Vincent goes to his phone app, and to voicemails, hovering his finger shakily over the play button, until he snaps his jaws shut and clicks it. It played, "Hey honey..~ I need you to pick up next time, okay..~? It's rude to do that to your mother.. you know that.. we need to talk, okay? it's important." Vincent had gone pale, and white as a ghost, as he just stared at the phone in disbelief and horror. Max sighs, getting up and going over to him, hugging him from behind, nuzzling his neck. "You do, hun.. You've got a wonderful body.. You need to have confidence in yourself.." he slides one of his hands down from under Karma's arm, down to his hip, on the side that didn't have the wound. Jaidan stares at the ground, also very pale, hugging his knees close to his chest as he struggled to hold back his tears, letting out a whimper but quickly covering his mouth, desperately trying to stay quiet, knowing how bad his mother was and knowing how much it scared Vincent, as well as the fact he had watched Vincent's memories, causing him to know she did to his father. The nurse nods, leaving and coming back with a syringe and a boot that would fit Levi, going over to the bed and giving him the syringe. "That's the medicine for your fever and it'll help with your foot as well." Levi sniffles, taking the medicine and then setting it down, staring at the nurse, still gripping onto Zarron tightly. The nurse sighs, going down to his foot and slowly sliding the boot on, adjusting everything and then looking up to him. "Does that feel okay?" Levi just nods again. The nurse sighs, nodding back once again. "Alright, sweetheart.. You can take the boot off in 4-6 weeks." Levi nods. "..Mmhm.." the nurse leaves. Levi looks up at Zarron, shakily trying to raise his leg that had the boot on it, wining and letting it fall back down, mumbling. ".. It's heavy.." Karma sighs shakily, a chill running down his spine. "..Mm.." Vincent freezes. "What was that?" Ezekiel frowns deeper. "What was what..? I didn't hear anything.." Vincent gulps, going silent after a, "Shh.." and Ezekiel does too. Zarron sighs. "I know.. you've just gotta get used to it.."Jaidan was breathing heavily, covering his mouth at an attempt to keep his breathing quiet, as well as keep in his crying, but lets out a other small whimper, looking absolutely miserable and furious with himself, knowing he was about to get caught, and was probably going to get in a lot trouble. Levi huffs a bit sadly, sniffling. "I-I need clothes... Th-The.. S-Someone took them.." He digs his face into Zarrons thigh, curling up but keeping his leg with the boot extended out. Max sighs, turning him around and kissing his lips softly for a few moments before pulling back slightly. "Change into your warmer clothes.. I'm excited to show you where we're going.." Vincent quickly stands up as he hears it again, bristling with fear and anger, his heart beating at a dangerously quick pace due to the extremity of the emotions that were mixing, and throws himself around the couch, and sees Jaidan, his eyes widening and his heartbeat quickens as he flushes red in the face and stops breathing. "Jaidan?!" Zarron frowns a bit. "I know.. I'll get them..." he looked very worried. Karma forces himself to smile a little, and steps away, grabbing his clothes and hesitating as he moved to go to the bathroom, instead staying where he was and changing there. Jaidan let's go of himself, bursting into tears and pressing his face into his knees, shaking violently, whimpering loudly. "I-I-I-I'm S-Sorry..!!" He looked extremely guilty, feeling awful. Levi sighs shakily. "M-Mmf.." He sits up, moving into Zarrons lap and pointing to one of his bent scales. "M-M-Mmf.. M-My scales.. Th-They were.. r-really p-p-pretty..." Max smiles a little at his trust, letting out a quiet sigh. "I think you'll love where we're going.." Vincent stumbles back, snapping his jaw shut and staring him dead in the eye, before he took in a sharp gasp, and put his hand to his chest, clutching it. "I have to go.." he muttered, before quickly stumbling off to a bathroom and slamming the door behind him. Ezekiel looked very alarmed. "Wh.." Zarron sighs. "Shhh.. they'll heal.." Karma glances at him, thinking about this as he changed, not wanting to think specifically about that at face value. "..heh.."Jaidan's eyes widen as he knew exactly what it was, screaming and frantically getting up, running to the bathroom as fast as he could and banging on the door as he tried to open it, tears streaming down his cheeks, him looking back to Ezekiel. "H-H-H-He's having a-a heart a-attack!!!" Levi sighs shakily, curling up in his lap. "M-M-Mmf.." He stares at the ground, his face going blank. "Why are you being nice to me? You shouldn't lie. I'd rather be alone than lied to. You want something. Neither of my father's pay attention to me. Why would you?" He stays in Zarron's lap but looked alert. "Zul is-.." he pauses. "Was.. Zul was.. the only person who really cared about me. The rest of you are filthy liars.." he looks away, staring at the wall, his expression still blank. Max sighs, pulling his crystal out of his pocket, going over to Karma once he was done and sighing. "You ready?" The door was locked. Ezekiel's widen. "What?!" He stands quick and runs over, putting his hand against the handle and his other against the door, using a burst of magical energy to explode the lock, and swings the door open as fast as he could. Vincent was at the counter, one arm against its top as he was struggling to stay standing, his other hand still against his chest. He glances back at them as he collapsed onto the ground next to the wall, looking awful. "J-Jaidan.. E-Ez- p-please... I'm- f-f-"he gasps in pain, coughing up blood and gritting his teeth. Zarron frowns deeper. "I'm.. sorry you feel that way.." karma sighs shakily and nods, turning to face him. Jaidan cries harder, bolting over to Vincent and quickly getting on the ground with him, grabbing Vincent's hand with his good hand and squeezing it tightly, using his hand that was in the cast and pointing to the medicine cabinet, looking to Ezekiel. "B-B-Blood th-thinners!!" It was clear he was struggling greatly himself, trying desperately to keep himself together for Vincent's sake. Levi huffs a bit, moving out of Zarrons lap and looking like he was deep in thought, jerking his head to look at Zarron after a few moments. "Take me to the catacombs." Max nods back, putting his arm around Karma and closing his eyes, using the crystal and teleporting them into a kitchen of a what seemed to be an older house, them being in the mountains somewhere unfamiliar. Max looks around and chuckles a bit, shoving the crystal into his pocket, taking a deep breath of the fresh air, it being chilly outside. Max looks to Karma, grabbing his hand and intertwining their fingers. "The view here is amazing. I know you live in Las Vegas and all but this is much better." He takes him over to the edge of the building, looking out over more mountains and buildings, it being beautiful, animals roaming around. "Do you like it? I'll let you take a guess where we are." Vincent was shaking a lot, looking miserable as he kept his hand clutching his heart, and kept suppressing coughs. Ezekiel quickly throws the medicine cabinet open, scanning everything and landing his eyes on the right thing, quickly grabbing them and handing them to Jaidan. Zarron looks surprised. "What?" Karma's eyes widen, and he let out a quiet breath. "Oh, wow.."
Max smiles at him, looking happy that he liked it, nuzzling him softly and kissing the top of his head gently. "We're in Colombia, South America. This is where I've been since I left Jaidan all those years ago. It's where I learned Spanish. I already knew a few other languages so I thought why not learn Spanish." He smiles more, clearly just enjoying being with him. Jaidan sighs shakily, struggling to get the bottle open but eventually getting it, grabbing two pills and setting the bottle down, quickly looking back to Vincent and dropping them in his mouth, continuing to cry, waiting to see if he needed to help him swallow them. "I-I-I'm so S-Sorry... I-I D-Didn't.. I-I didn't m-m-mean for this to h-happen.." Levi huffs. "I said take me to the catacombs. I need to find Zul. The REAL Zul." Karma smiles brighter. "I've always wanted to visit someplace like this.. I haven't been anywhere similar since I was.." he paused, thinking. "Heh.. young..." Vincent tried hard to swallow them, but with the persistent irritation in his throat from coughing he almost coughs them out among with blood, and gives Jaidan a desperate look. Zarron looked skeptical, opening and closing his mouth in hesitation. "I-I.." he huffs. "Alright.." Levi sighs shakily, glancing down at his foot before moving into Zarrons lap again, using his magic to make a folded up piece of paper appear in his hand, opening it slightly to look at the inside and nodding to himself, sliding it inside his boot slightly but so he could still grab it easily. "Alright. Now, let's go. Zul's more important than clothes." Jaidan quickly helps him swallow them, then moving his hand to his cheek, rubbing it softly with his thumb, tears dripping down onto Vincent as he continued to cry, in this moment, only caring about Vincent being okay, despite the loud ringing in his ears, he pushes through to stay with him, him letting out small noises in fear as his eyes darted around the room. Max blushes a bit, keeping their fingers intertwined and walking around with him. "There's not AC here but I didn't really mind. This is as cold as it gets so I don't really need heat and if I do I'd just grab more blankets. In the hotter months, it's much hotter, but I like the heat so that's cool too." He goes over to one of the bedroom doors, opening it and going inside with him. There was a king sized bed along with another door leading to a bathroom and another door leading to a closet. Along the top of the walls neat the ceiling, it was open allowing for the air from outside to come in. There was a nightstand that had a photo of Jaidan and Karma on it, them looking to be about 5 or 6 years old. There was also a few photos of Vincent and Jaidan of when Jaidan was much younger as well. Max sighs, going over to the bed and sitting on the edge, looking around the room and thinking. "Hm.. We could go exploring in the mountains if you want? I could carry you on my back so you don't have to walk." Zarron gave a confused look at the paper, before shaking his head lightly and quickly teleporting them both into the catacombs, where it was blazing hot, and Zarron quickly puts his hand to Levi's shoulder, cooling him before the heat could harm him. Vincent squeezes his eyes shut, just wishing it to be over quickly. Ezekiel looked very very worried, getting close and sitting next to Vincent on the opposite side as Jaidan. "Jesus, Vince.." Karma observes all this, looking in awe. He looks to him, smiling a little and shaking his head. "No, I'll.. I'll be fine walking. I need to stay active, anyway." Levi sighs shakily, appreciating this greatly and climbing into his arms to make this easier as he knew his shortness might make it hard for him to stay like that, him thinking deeply. "I think Emma said that hell works based on the opposite of what you are, right? I don't really know what Zul's type is but he could control water. What's the opposite of water?" He looks at Zarron. Jaidan had many thoughts running through his head, embarrassed to be like this in front of Ezekiel but as he thought more about this, he thought about the possibility of him being his uncle, also thinking about how he caused Vincent to have a heart attack, all of this rushing into his head at once and he looked extremely overwhelmed, just leaning forward slightly and moving his hand back down to Vincent's hand, gripping onto it as tight as he could, both to comfort Vincent, as well as for himself. Max nods. "Alright.." He stands back up, grabbing his hand and heading out of the room, going around the house and walking down a dirt road filled with similar houses to the one they were in, eventually getting to all trees and he heads in, smiling a little at all the animals roaming around freely, glancing at him. "Try not to step on snakes, please. I don't know if it'll affect you if you're bit but if I get bit by a snake here it won't be the best. There's some venomous ones." Zarron sighs. "Um, fire.. so where we are seems like a pretty good start." Vincent groans a little. "I could've.. h-handled this.. y-you shouldn't.. b-be having t-" he pauses as he catches his breath. "D-Deal with this.." Ezekiel huffs. "No! You've always done this, sometimes keeping everything to yourself isn't a good idea. You can't just isolate yourself and hope you'll be able to stay alive forever that way." Vincent lets out a long shakey sigh, knowing he was right. Karma nods. "Got it.." he was watching a squirrel with a keen eye, as if he was predicting their every move, his breathing rhythmic, and quiet. He was also clutching Max's hand tight, and his footsteps were careful. Jaidan lays down next to Vincent, curling up and snuggling up close to him, resting his head on his shoulder and crying harshly against it, keeping a grip on his hand, clearly trying to speak to him. "I-I-I.. I-I D-Didn't m-mean t-to.. T-To give Y-You a h-h-heart attack.. I-I-I really D-Didn't m-mean T-T-To.. I-I-I'm so s-s-sorry.." He had his hand that was in a cast against his neck, it clear it was bothering him. Max smiles a bit at him, holding his hand back just as tight, rubbing the top of his hand with his thumb softly, watching him and the squirrel closely and whispering to him. "Are you watching the squirrel?" Levi nods, staying in his arms and shifting his leg with the boot so they were both more comfortable, looking around and muttering. "How does this actually work..?" Zarron laughs flatly. "What exactly do you mean?" He started walking through the halls. Vincent just watched him. "No.." Karma snaps his jaw shut, slamming his hand against Max's mouth and going still, staring off in the distance, behind the squirrel and further off, deeper in. From Max's perspective, nothing could be seen. Levi huffs. "I've never been here before!! I just know it's where dead people go!!" He lowers his voice. "I just know it's where Zul is..." He was looking at the doors as they walked, having no clue what to look for, but was clearly tensed up, knowing he looked much different then he did when he was younger and hoping Zul still thought he was cool, sighing shakily as tears came to his eyes, him keeping them in but it was clear he was upset. Jaidan glances at Ezekiel, quickly digging his face into Vincent's neck at an attempt to hide himself, wishing he were invisible, breathing heavily, but it was becoming clear that he was slowly starting to calm down. "I-I-I.. I-I t-told you.. J-Just.. I-I deserve to be A-A-Alone.. W-Without.. Y-You.. O-Or anyone E-else.." Max looks confused as he does this, looking where he was looking, having absolutely no idea what was happening. Max slowly follows him, staying silent as well and getting low to the ground with him, still very confused but going along with what he was doing. Jaidan sighs shakily, mumbling something to himself but it was able to be heard by both of them. "..I-I'm technically n-never a-alone a-a-anyway...." he stares at the wall, his ears still ringing loudly as he clutched onto Vincent tightly, one of his legs wrapped over Vincent's as he wanted to be closer to him. Levi sighs shakily, glancing up at him. "Mmf.. You don't understand.. He.. He's really special to me.. I really.. Really need to find him.." a tear runs down his cheek. "He's my only brother.. A-And.. I love him.. A lot.. I need to find him.. I need to see the real him.." More tears start to run down his cheeks as he was no longer able to hold them back. "P-Please.. help me find him.." As they got closer and closer, for Max a blur of black fur cake into his view, and Karma stops again as the blur of fur made a noise, very recognisable as a bear cry. Vincent clenches his teeth, and grabs him by the collar, pulling him close to his face so he could stare him dead in the eye. "Stop." Zarron keeps walking. "I will.. don't worry.." Max frowns a bit, staying very close to Karma. "M-Mmf.." He looked nervous, more about karma than himself, not wanting him to get hurt. Jaidan wines loudly. "M-M-Mmf... I-I-I was J-J-Just talking about Th-The S-Schizophrenia!!! ...Y-Y-You're t-technically.... N-Never... a..lone e-either......" his voice got very quiet toward the end, him just staring downwards, not making eye contact with Vincent. "I-I-I'm.. I-I'm going to m-m-my room.." He tries to get up, clearly keeping his head turned away from Vincent, seemingly afraid to make eye contact with him. Levi lays his head on his chest, sniffling and staring at the doors as they passed by them. "W-W-Would if have his name...? H-His name is Zulier Afton.. Zul for short.." They are Karma very very slowly progressed further, the bear mite coming into view, its face having tan fur rather than black fur like the rest of it. Vincent didn't want him to go, frowning deeply and trying to get up to stop him, but quickly falls back and lets out a yell of pain, Ezekiel quickly putting his hand to his shoulder. Zarron thinks about this. "No... but.. I might be able to find him in the files..." Levi nods rapidly. "He's really really pretty and he's got like blondish ears and they're really really fluffy.. He's got like.. redish hair.. And he's got eyes like daddy and Emma.. So golden eyes.." he smiles a little. "Just look for the prettiest little boy you can find.. That should be him.." Jaidan leaves the bathroom, only making it a few steps before collapsing to his knees in tears, the thud from his metal leg able to be heard by them, just letting everything he had bottled up inside of him go, struggling greatly to breath. Max frowns deeply, quickly putting a hand on Karma's shoulder and pulling him back towards him, bringing his mouth to his ear and whispering very quietly into it. "You can't kill it.. It's endangered, hun.."
Zarron chuckles a little. "Alright.." Vincent gasps for breath. "Help.. him.." Ezekiel hesitated, before frowning deeper and going after Jaidan, kneeling down to him. "Hey.." he puts a hand on his back. Karma lets out a low growl, his eyes pinned on the bear and his rosary swinging violently. "Take.. it... off...." he murmured, very quietly. Jaidan collapses completely against him, not even caring in the moment, his crying harsh and he had his hands around his throat, couching violently in between his sobs, his head having landed on Ezekiel's lap, his eyes clutched shut and he shook violently, not knowing how to get himself together. Lucy was watching from down the hall, her head tilted as she laid on her stomach staring at them. Max frowns deeper, very hesitantly grabbing a branch off the ground and.hooking it under his rosary, yanking on it until it came off, grabbing it once it did, sighing shakily. "..M-Mmf..." Ezekiel holds him close, radiating a soothing, warm energy. "It's okay.." Karma's visible eye's pupil almost completely fills the space his iris used to occupy, and he bolts towards the bear, going into his full demon form and attacking the bear, the bear shrieking in pain as he hit it with the force of all of his strength, digging his claws into his its side and biting into it. The bear desperately tried to throw him off, but to no avail. Zarron heads to the center of the portion of the catacombs they were in.Levi now had a small smile on his face as he thought about Zul, letting out a quiet sigh. "You've never met him but you'll really like him.. He's really really nice and we protect each other.. We love to tickle each other and one time he saved me from when everyone was being mean to me, and we ran away and went to daddy cuz he was sick and in the hospital and then we found his room and we stayed with him.. And Zul is really really smart.. And cute.. He says I'm cute too.. We're best friendsss.." Max frowns even deeper, quickly getting up and running over, knowing he was probably about to get hurt trying to do this, but he tries to pull Karma off anyway. "Karma!! Please!!" After a solid 15 minutes he finally started to calm down, looking exhausted from all of his crying, his breathing quiet as he let his head rest in his lap, his good hand clutching onto his pants. "M-M-Mmf.." He was noticably tracing Ezekiel's abs and other muscles with his eyes. Zarron smiles warmly. "I hope I do like him.." Karma wacks him hard with his tail, and climbs further up the bear, sinking his claws into the bear's neck and ripping back, the bear roaring louder and crumbles to the ground, not yet dead, but too weak to try to get him off anymore. Ezekiel notices this and furrows his brow, moving away. "Are you okay, now..?" Max huffs, quickly grabbing his rosary again and trying to put it around his neck again, jumping onto his back In order to do it. "KARMA!!" Levi sighs shakily, nuzzling him softly. "Where do we look for his file..?" Jaidan sits up carefully, staring at the ground and shrugging. "M-Mmf.. S-Sure.." He moves closer to the wall, just leaning against it and sighing shakily. Lucy had stayed where she was in the hallway but was now half asleep sprawled out on the floor, her being visible to them. Karma growls loudly at him, thrashing in resistance, snapping his jaws at him as he kept his claws sunk into the bear's neck, but ultimately, Max won, and Karma goes limp against the bear as his pupil sunk back to normal. Zarron gestures up ahead. "The center.." Ezekiel lets out a long sigh, and spots Lucy, raising an eyebrow. Jaidan gets up, going back into the bathroom to see Vincent. Lucy's tail was wrapped around one of her legs and her cheek was against the cold floor, her ears still perked up from when she was listening to them, her body limp on the floor, barely awake. Max quickly grabs him off of the bear, laying him on the ground and sighing shakily, moving to the bear and examining it's wounds, muttering to himself. "..It's almost dead.." Levi nods a bit. "Okay.." he pauses as he thought. "Demons can't go to heaven, right..? So he has to be here..?" Vincent was still there, in the corner against the cabinets, facing away, and completely still, his head leaned against one of the cabinets, and his face wasnt visible. Ezekiel goes over to her, and carefully picks her up. Karma was quickly coming to tears, looking horrified. The bear groaned in pain, giving Max a sad look. There were claw marks on either side of it's neck running deep, and bite and claw marks on his back and side where Karma had initially attacked, also running fairly deep. Zarron lets out a long sigh. "Unfortunately.. no... they can't..." Jaidan sighs shakily, going over to him and getting in his lap, looking at him. "M-Mmf.." Lucy shifts in his arms, wining quietly and digging her face into his chest, mumbling quietly. "..The floor's cold.." Max sighs shakily, rubbing the bears head softly and glancing back at Karma. "M-Mmf.. We can't call anyone.. We'll get arrested.. It's noticable this was done by a person.." He lets out a long, shaky sigh. "Mmf.." He pulls out a knife, looking at the bear and deciding it might be best to put it out of it's misery, knowing it would be worse to let it suffer, slowly inserting it through its skull from behind so it couldn't see it, but quick enough so it was over for it quickly, letting go of the knife and moving away quickly once he was done, tears in his eyes as well. Levi shakes his head. "No, no.. That's good.. Makes it easier to find him.." He seemed to be thinking deeply, staring at the ground as he thought. "Just lemme know what to do.." Vincent doesn't look back, his face cold, and desolate, his body physically cold, and his eyes dull. Ezekiel rubs her back. "Then don't sleep on it, silly.." Karma was shaking, staring at the dead bear, gripping either arm with the other as tears quickly fell from his eyes, completely speechless. Zarron nods, staring sadly at the ground. Max sees Karma like this and quickly moves over to him, pulling him up into a tight hug, holding his head against his chest in a way so he couldn't see the best, sighing shakily and sniffling. "I-It's okay, hun.. J-Just.. It's O-Okay.. It's N-Not your fault.." Jaidan frowns deeply, putting a hand to his cheek and rubbing it softly with his thumb. "H-Hey.. Daddy..? It's m-me.. I-I just.. I'm sorry.. I.. I need to work on myself.." Lucy turns her head to look up at him but her eyes stayed closed. "I didn't mean tooooo.. I fell asleep on accidentttt.. You never came and got meee.. So after a while I came and watched youuuuu..." Levi notices this and nuzzles him softly, sighing and shifting again, the weight of his boot tiring out his leg and he shifts so he was bridal style in Zarron's arms, letting out a sigh of relief as the weight was lifted off. "Don't be sad.. We've gotta be happy.. For when we find Zul.." Karma sighs shakily, his voice quiet. "I-It is.. o-of course i-it is...!" Vincent didnt respond. Ezekiel sighs. "Yeah, hm.. Sorry.." Zarron shakes his head. "Right.." Max shakes his head a bit, hugging him tighter. "N-No, h-hun.. It's not.. Just.. Let's.. Let's go back to my place.. We can lay down.." He gets up with shaky legs, scooping Karma up and heading back out of the forest but before he could he lets out a yelp and collapses to the ground, his eyes wide and it was clear he was in a lot of pain, dropping karma as he fell, instantly looking awful, breathing heavily in pain, it not clear why though. Levi sighs shakily, sniffling and looking towards where Zarron had pointed. "Mmf.. I.. What if he's not here..? He's gotta be here though.. I.. I know he is.. Emma says he is.. But.. What if she's lying..? What if she's doing this just to make me suffer more..? B-But.. He might be here.." He looked very confused. Lucy sighs, curling up into a ball in his arms. "Mm.." Jaidan wines a bit, getting up and quickly going out to Ezekiel, sniffling. "H-He's.. C-Can you just c-come here..?" Karma lets out a scream of pain as he fell against his hurt side, but he lets go of any care about himself, scrambling to get up and search Max, desperately hoping he was okay, needing him to be okay, his heart pounding in his ears. "M-Max?!" Zarron frowns. "Don't think about that.." Ezekiel raises an eyebrow, looking over, getting up and going to him. "What is it?"
Max rolls onto his back slowly and carefully, breathing heavily and pointing to his leg, his pants covering his entire leg what there was a tear towards the bottom, tears running down his cheeks but he didn't look down at it, looking like he was struggling not to scream. "..F-Fuck.." Jaidan kneels back down to Vincent, moving into his lap and moving his face close to his, nuzzling him softly. "D-Daddy..?" Lucy opens her eyes slightly and stares at Vincent. Levi sighs shakily, staring upwards, just wanting to get wherever they were going. Karma's eyes widen. "W-Wh?! Wh-When- I- M-Max!!" He felt sick, knowing he wouldn't be able to get them both back, and horrified they would be stuck there. Ezekiel's eyes widen as he sees him, and he stumbles back, his face going pale. "J-Jaidan.. g-get away f-from him.." After a very, very long time it seemed, they make it to the center, where a desk lay.Levi sighs shakily, looking at the desk. There was a snake bite on his leg that seemed like it had been there for a while, if already swollen. Max let's out a quiet groan, looking next to him at a tree and glancing at Karma, sighing shakily and sitting himself up, grunting and grabbing onto it, managing to get himself up and stay on one foot, sighing shakily, extremely nauseous. "M-Mmf.." Jaidan looks confused, but then realized what he means, his eyes widening and his heart beat quickens, full on panicking and he puts his hand to Vincent's neck, feeling for.his pulse desperately, shaking his head vigorously. "N-NO!! I-I AM NOT DOING THIS A-AGAIN!! WAKE. UP!!" The desk was covered in papers, and had a filing cabinet on either side. Zarron goes to one, searching for Z. Tears immediately burst from Karma's eyes and he covers his mouth. "No, no, no, no, no, no!!" Vincent's pulse was gone. Ezekiel was speechless, and couldn't move. Levi sighs, helping him look through the files, searching for Zul's name. "Mmf.. I R-Really hope he's here.." Max leans over and empties his stomach onto the ground, almost falling over but keeping himself up, sighing shakily and pointing out of the woods. "F-First.. H-House.. ..N..eighbor.. C-Can you.. S-Speak ..Spa..nis..h..?" Jaidan continues to shake his head, quickly laying Vincent down and immediately starting CPR, screaming at Vincent to wake up. "I SAID FUCKING WAKE UP!! I WILL NOT LOSE YOU LIKE THIS AGAIN!!" He didn't even start to cry, looking more angry then anything, putting everything he had into trying to bring Vincent back. Lucy frowns deeply, pulling herself up closer to Ezekiel's face, looking scared and digging her face into his neck, wining quietly, tears coming to her eyes as she was extremely confused, starting to cry against his neck. Zarron says nothing as he searched. Karma nods vigorously, but he was terrified he wouldn't be able to make it, as his side had grown much more painful after that fall. Ezekiel frowned deeper, stepping out of the bathroom. "J-Jaidan.." Vincent stayed unresponsive.Lucy cries harder, clutching onto him tightly. Jaidan eventually gives up, collapsing on top of him, the tears then coming. He starts to cry harshly, clutching onto him tightly, it clear he couldn't handle this, him muttering something quietly "..I-I'm n-next.." He puts his hand on Vincent's head, rubbing it softly, looking absolutely devasted, knowing as soon as the others found out he was dead. Levi sighs shakily, continuing to search, tears threatening to come out but Levi quickly wipes them away, sniffling. Max sighs shakily, him sweating quite a bit, he looks around, seemingly seeing what he could grab onto and then looks to Karma, seeing her probably wouldn't make it out, letting himself drop to the ground again, sitting up against the tree, sighing shakily and letting his head fall back. "J-Just.. S-Stay w-with me.. I-I.. C..Ant.. M-Make It.. b-back.." Ezekiel frowns deeper, going over and trying to pull him away from the body. Karma's eyes widen, and more tears burst from them. "Wh- b-b-But- you- you have t-to have s-s-some way!!" Zarron stops as he gets to Zu, pausing as he stared in. Levi then quickly tries to find Zul's name, looking desperate at this point. Jaidan screams, but it wasn't clear if it was at him or not. "STOP!!" Ezekiel is successful but Jaidan weakly fights back to get back to him, tears streaming down his cheeks. "DADDY!!" It was very clear he definitely wasn't in a good state of mind at the moment, looking like his whole world just crashed and burned in front of him, to him, it seeming that way. Max looked like he had given up, using his pocket knife to cut off the bottom part of his pants by the bite, sighing shakily. "W-Wit..hout..the..a-a-antivenom.." he sighs shakily. "I-I.. Won't.. s-surv..ive.." he coughs and gags, leaning over again and emptying whatever he had left in him, blood coming up this time. Zul's name and file was there. Karma whimpers. "Y-You're just going to.. n-no..." he looked devastated. Ezekiel looked very sorry. "Mmf.." he takes him out of the bathroom, holding him tightly. Jaidan's face then goes blank, him getting up and finding a gun, growling loudly and jerking his head to look at Ezekiel. "Round up all women, grandchildren, and anyone else who can't become king. Except Emma. Got it?!" Levi's eyes widen and he quickly grabs it, looking through it frantically but carefully. "C-Come on, Zul.. I n-need to see you.." Max sighs shakily and holds his arms out to him for him to sit with him. "M-M-Mmf.. C-Co..me.. H-Here, s-s..wee..t..h..eart.." Ezekiel looked hesitant, but, not wanting to die again, he bolts off, going to find everyone. He goes into Kayla's room first, frowning deeply. Kayla notices this. "Eze..? What's wrong..?" He sighs shakily. "I need you to come with me.. bring Athena and Carter.." Kayla worriedly grabs the both of them, and gets off the bed, glancing at Aaron. In the file, there was only 1 sheet in there, and the majority of it was crossed out, except for a number at the bottom, "648283839446668299754" Karma shakily goes over, still crying harshly, and sits there. Aaron looks confused, still snuggled with Jake, and frowns deeply. "Wh.." Jake was half awake and opens his eyes, looking over at them. "What..?" Carter clutches onto Kayla tightly. Jaidan heads up to the roof, seeming to know Kye and Emma were there, going over to them and.staring down at them, getting on his knees and putting the gun to Kye's head, just letting it stay like that, his finger on the trigger ready to shoot. Emma doesn't move, having been awake and thinks to Kye quickly. [Jaidan's got a gun to your head!! G-Get up!!] Levi looks confused and holds it out to Zarron. "H-Here.." Addison was in her room snuggled up to Warren, staring at the wall. Max wraps his arms weakly around him, pulling him close, Karma able to feel Max's body shaking. Max sighs shakily, leaning against him and letting his arms drop, just letting his head rest on his shoulder. He whispers. "..I love y-you.. P-Please.. P-Please d..on't L-Let.. J-Jaidan.. D-Do any..the..ing.. t-to.. h-him..s..elf.." Ezekiel frowns deeper. "Not you.." he looks to Kayla again. "Go to the living room.." Kayla looked confused. "O-Okay.." he goes to walk out, and searches all the other rooms, finding Addison and stopping. "Um, who are you?" Kayla heads out to the living room. Kye lets out a long sigh, relaxing his body and not saying, nor doing anything. A sudden hand fell upon Jaidan's shoulder from behind. Karma looked horrified. "I won't be around to stop him.."Zarron takes it, frowning deeply. "Wh.. what happened to it..?". Emma clutches onto Kye tightly, digging her face into his chest, wining quietly and whispering to Kye. "I-I love you, D-Daddy..." Jaidan whips around with his gun, ready to shoot, his eyes still wide and he was shaking violently. Addison quickly looks to him, her grip tightening on Warren. "who the hell are you?!" Lucy was still crying and clutching onto Ezekiel and whispers quietly. "..W-Wife.." Aaron and Jake looked very confused, Jake clutching onto Aaron tightly. Aaron holds him close, sitting up with him in his lap, but staying where he was. Carter wines, looking scared and looking up at Kayla with worried eyes, looking like he was about to cry. Max sighs shakily, shaking his head a bit weakly. "M-Mmf.. Y-..ou.. W-Will.. I-I.. c-c..an.. F-..Feed....you.. For.. A-A wh..ile.. J-Just.. W..ait..t-til.. Y-Yo..u're.. S-Strong e-enough... O..okay..?.." he looked miserable. Levi wines. "I-I don't know!! Wh-Where is he?!" Vincent stood there, staring sternly at him, before he disappeared. Ezekiel stares in surprise. "O-Oh.. um.. can you... go to the living room..?" Kayla sits on the couch, confused. Karma's eyes widen, and he shakes his head vigorously. "N-No!!" He desperately scoots to his leg, making it visible. "I-I'll Fix it!! S-Somehow!!" Zarron sighs shakily. "Okay, um.. we just have to find this door number.."Levi hops out of his arms go run to look, almost instantly collapsing from the heat, his skin boiling and he screams, squirming around as it hurt. "I-IT BURNS!!" Addison growls loudly at him, holding Warren protectively. "WHO. ARE. YOU?!" Lucy mutters again. ".. She's a lot stronger th-than she l-looks.. ..T-T..trust me.." Jaidan screams in frustration before jerking his head to look back at Kye, just thinking it was a hallucination as it wasn't a new thing to him, his hand shaking as he struggled greatly to hold himself back from shooting him, his eyes filled with anger and he huffs, moving the gun to his own head, collapsing to his knees, the tears coming back as they stream down his cheeks. Emma sees this and get eyes widen even more, having no clue what to do. Max sighs shakily. "..M-Mmf.." He shakes his head a bit. "Y-Y..ou.. C-Can't.. E..ven.. I..if.. Y-You c-cou..ld.. Y-.. You.. D-Don't.. h-have enough.. bl-" he begins to cough violently, spitting out blood onto the ground and groaning loudly, letting himself fall back and just lays on the ground, reaching for Karma and using the last of his strength to pull him closer by the collar of his shirt, kissing him as passionately as he could, but it was very weak, his arm falling back to the ground. Zarron bolts to him, scooping him up to cool him. "Don't do that!!" Ezekiel lets out a long sigh. "I know your husband." Kye opened his eyes slightly, seeing this, but not doing anything. "Shoot me, first.." Karma shakes his head vigorously again, pushing him away and going back to his leg. "No!!" He slams his hand against it, using his magic and focusing deeply, staring at his leg intently. Max let's out a quiet groan before he goes limp, his head falling to the side and he was clearly losing consciousness. Levi had a thin layer of burns covering his body and he quickly clutches onto Zarron, crying quietly but looking back towards the doors. "I-I.. I-I need Z-Zul.. P-Please.. P-Please.. I-I need T-T-To f-find him.." he sighs shakily, trying to ignore the burns. Addison scoffs, sitting up and moving Warren into her lap, rubbing his back softly. "Yeah. You're lying. If he finds you, he'll kill you. You're an angel." She glances at Lucy, rolling her eyes. "Even if Jaidan finds you, he'll kill you." Jaidan shakes his head weakly, keeping a grip on the gun but not doing anything, just continuing to cry. "E-Even if I kill you.. S-S-Someone else is g-going to kill m-me.." he moves the gun down, it being very very close to his heart and he shoots, gasping in pain and falling back against the ground, keeping his eyes open and staring up at the sky, the gunshot able to be heard by Ezekiel and Lucy. Lucy hears it and her ears perk up, before she quickly digs her face under his arm, looking ready to cry again. Karma sped up, whimpering as he panicked, focusing hard as he tried desperately to separate the venom from his blood and bring it to the surface. Zarron runs in the direction he thought he'd be. Ezekiel lets out a long sigh. "Well. I don't suppose Vincent would care much about losing another wife. You can die with your son." He stomps out, and hears the shot, bolting towards where he heard it. Kye did nothing, except let out a disappointed breath. "You could've won.." Addison looked horrified as he said this, quickly grabbing a blanket and wrapping Warren in it, holding him close and protectively, watching the door closely. Jaidan glances at Kye and shakes his head weakly. "N-No.. I.. I couldn't have.. I-I.. I don't want I-It.. I.. I-I couldn't.. k-kill.. K-Karma.. A-Anyway.." He sees Ezekiel and sighs shakily, staring up at the sky once again, thinking about all the good times he's had with Vincent, a hand over the wound as he just laid there, not seeming to be affected by the pain at the moment. Emma sniffles, sighing shakily and getting off of Kye, going over to Jaidan and curling up on his chest, licking up the blood as it came out, figuring it was a good way to get food as well as try to help clean it. Lucy sees Jaidan and wines loudly in Ezekiel's arms, not understanding at all what was happening with anyone. The venom slowly starts to seep out of the wound, this seeming to be helping Max already. Max let's out a quiet groan again, his eyes half open as he stared at the ground. "..M-Mmf.." Levi clutches onto him tightly, digging his face into his chest, repeating the number from earlier seemingly by memory. "648283839446668299754.. That's his door number.." Zarron looks surprised, but smiles at this. "Very good.." he keeps looking. Karma let out a shaky sigh of relief, continuing. Ezekiel quickly goes to Jaidan, his eyes widening. "Jesus, what the hell?!" He quickly puts his hand to the wound, trying desperately to heal it as quick as he could as much as he could to be safe until it could be professionally worked on. Levi smiles a little back at him. "Mmf.. I've got a good memory.. Mostly with numbers though.. It helps when building things.." He was looking as well. Once all the venom was out, Max slowly turns his head to look at karma, a weak smile appearing on his face and he reaches his hand out to him, tugging on his shirt weakly to get him to come closer. "..Th-Thank.. ..Y-You.." Jaidan groans quietly, but the wound seemed good enough. Emma licks up the rest of the blood around the wound, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand and then moving back over to Kye, getting back under the blanket with him, curling up on his stomach this time. Lucy sniffles, her face dug into Ezekiel's underarm, seemingly afraid to look at anything as everything she looked at was someone dying or dead. Jaidan sighs shakily, shaking his head a bit weakly and muttering. ".. H-He's dead, s-s-stupid... I.. Should've died.. N-Not.. h-h..im.." he tilts his head so he could see the locket around his neck, moving his hand to it and clutching onto it tightly. Zarron nods. "That is very useful, you'll come to find." He stops at a door, reading its number as he had done with others to make sure they were going in the right direction, his eyes widening as the door matched the numbers. "It's this one!" Karma hugs him tightly. Kye looks confused. "M-Mm.. who's.. dead...?" Levi's eyes widen and he goes to hop out of his arms but quickly stopping himself, just reaching for the handle and trying to open it. "O-OPEN!!" Jaidan sighs shakily, his voice almost non-existent. "..D-Daddy.." Emma's eyes widen at this and she gets up as fast as she could, throwing the blanket off of her and Kye, tears coming to her eyes. "WH-WHAT?!" Lucy cries against Ezekiel's arm, trying to disappear and tried to climb into his pants as she had seen Emma do that to Kye. Max moves his face to Karma's, sighing shakily and kissing him softly, not knowing how he was supposed to repay him, as Karma had just saved his life. "..I love y-you, karma.. ..Th..Thank y-you... S-So much.." Zarron quickly opens the door and goes in so he could set him down, doing so. Zul was there, facing away and sitting on his knees. Ezekiel jumps in surprise, quickly yanking her out, feeling violated by this. Key's eyes widen. "Wh- he- I- Wh-" he kept stammering, not able to get any words out, before suddenly collapsing. Karma sighs shakily, hugging him tighter. "I-I love you t-" he suddenly goes limp. Emma's eyes widen even more as she stared at Kye, quickly going to move up to his face before she collapses on top of his chest. Jaidan sees this and looks confused, moving over to them and putting a hand on Kye's head, rubbing it softly. "Aye.." Lucy looks confused, crying harder, looking extremely confused and overwhelmed, terrified. Levi's eyes widen and he bolts over to Zul as fast as he could, sliding onto the ground next to him and pulling him into a tight hug, having struggled a bit with the boot but managing, tears running down his cheeks. "Z-ZUL!!!" He kisses his lips quickly as they had done when he was still alive. Max looks extremely concerned, adrenaline shooting through his veins as he shoots up into a sitting position, scooping him up into his lap and sighing shakily. "K-Karma!!" Not a moment later, Ezekiel also collapses. Zul smiles weakly, his lips quivering. Zarron smiles a little as he sees their reaction to each other, taking a step towards them, it echoing through the space, before too did a loud boom as his body hit the floor. Karma did not respond. Levi quickly looks over to Zarron, seeing his body collapses and wining, gripping onto Zul as tight as he could, digging his face into his shoulder, not wanting to ever leave him again. "I-I miss Y-You.. S-So much.. I love you.. I-I'm sorry I-It took so long to G-Get to you.." he pulls Zul into his lap, nuzzling him softly. "I-I'll die t-too, if it m-means I can stay with y-you.." Max looked terrified, holding him tightly in his arms, crying quietly as he knew he couldn't make it back alone, just hoping something would happen. Lucy cries even harder as this happens, her landing on the ground next to him. Jaidan frowns deeply, grabbing Lucy quickly and holding her close to his chest, not knowing what was going on. "Shh.. C-Calm down.. It's okay.." Zul frowns deeply. "N-No.. I-I-" he goes limp. A sudden sharp pain appeared against Max's neck, and he felt very very drowsy, his vision going blurred this too happened to Jaidan. Levi looked terrified as this happens, keeping him in his lap and rubbing his head softly. "I-I love you.. I love y-you so much, Z-Zul.. S-So much..I-I've never f-forgotten you.." Jaidan falls unconscious. Lucy screams as this happens, not knowing at all what was happening, trying to crawl away as fast as she could. Max slips into unconsciousness, falling back with karma in top of him. Before Lucy could, the same sharp sting in the back of the neck plagued her, and too did it Levi.Levi and Lucy both fall unconscious.
