"There's something wrong with me."
"Keefe, there's nothing wrong with you. I'm the Moonlark. There will always be something wrong with me. And I'm the only one with freaky genetics."
"No, you're not," Keefe said.
"Wait WHAT?!?!"
"Oh! That's right!" Ro put in. "Hunkyhair's mommy dearest-"
"Gave me a new ability." Keefe finished. Sophie gasped.
"She what?!?!"
Keefe shrugged. "I didn't think it would do anything at first. At first, I didn't even manifest it!" He took a deep breath. "But when we got you back, I stopped feeling people's emotions."
"What do you mean?" Sophie asked him.
"First I was just having trouble sensing what the emotions are, but now..." He trailed off. "I can't feel your emotions, Sophie. It's like they're just gone."
"Do you have any idea why this is happening?" Sophie asked softly. "Is anything else happening?"
"No-"
"Yes." Ro interrupted. "He just won't talk about it." She turned to Keefe. "Come on, Hunkyhair. Tell your girl. She'll understand."
Keefe glared at Ro. "One, she isn't anyone's girl. Two, she doesn't remember, and I'd have to fill her in on everything for her to understand. And three," He turned to Sophie. "Ro's telling the truth. I- I-" He looked down.
"Keefe?"
"I'm losing my Empathy because my genetics don't let me have two abilities."
"Keefe, what's the second ability?"
"I'm manifesting as a Mesmer."
