*Flashback- A Year Ago- The Saltzman Boarding School: For The Young and Gifted- The Werewolf Transitional Cellar, Afternoon*

He laughs and Faye says in shock, "Oh my God?!" He comments and retorts, "Oh look on the bright side, you can get back to the daily grind of your young life?" She says nothing as he continues and walks back over to her, "And in any giving moment when the knife is returned home to Malivore, I will be free to find Peace." She says nothing upset and he takes a step forward to the gate and answers her question from before bout her dad, "As for your father, he watches after you every day... She looks at him shocked as he continues, "He did die with love in his heart. He doesn't regret his choice... She says nothing as he walks back in the middle of the room again and faces her and continues, "He's with your mom still... Tears falls down her cheeks as he continues, "She's found peace, but he won't until you do!" Faye says nothing as he comments to her with a smile and retorts, "Good luck with that!" The ceiling caves in, with, dirt and stone and the Necromancer comments with a smile, "The knife is destroyed! One lock is released... Faye looks shocked and he smiles and takes a bow and then stands straight again and comments with a smile, "And with it, So, am I!" He floats in the air and then snaps his fingers and vanishes, gone.

*The Next Day, in The Morning- Austin, Texas- A Strip Mall*

The Necromancer is still in the same clothes and his hair is the same color, but his scar, on his face, is completely gone, like it never existed and he looks completely, humanified, now, instead of, a monster. He's unconscious on the ground, his head, rested upon the yellow curb, to sidewalk, his body halfway, out, in the street. He slowly, awakes and sits up. He looks, around, his surroundings, confused, and, surprised. An African American guy, in a mall cop, uniform, finds him, on the ground and looks upset, by, this, as the place, is supposed to, be closed and deserted. He approaches him and admits sadly, "Hey! You can't, sleep here." The Necromancer responds, and, admits, furious, now, "I wasn't, sleeping here, you, blundering dolt!" The guy glares at him, hurt and says nothing, as he continues, "I was, magically, transported, here, to, this..." He pauses, in, shock, stands, and, looks, around, his surroundings, again, at, a, loss and comments, confused, "What, is this place?" The guy responds and reveals sternly, "It's a strip mall. And, you're going to have to magically transport yourself, somewhere else! Because this is also, private property." The Necromancer looks at him, annoyed, now and retorts angry, now, "Worm, do you, have any idea, who speak to?" The guy sighs and retorts tired, as he bows and says sternly, "I'm the Necro..." Malivore stops him, from saying the word and he gasps in shock, by that and looks surprised, now. He runs over to the window and sees his face, different and changed and comments sad, "No... My beautiful Face! What did he do to me?" He says in shock and the guy glares at him, angry and retorts, tired, now, "No idea. But if you don't leave here? I'm going to have to call the cops!" The Necromancer turns to him, agitated and yells pissed off, now, "Silence!" He puts his hands out and tries to shut him, up, but it doesn't work and he sighs in frustration now and says betrayed, "My powers! He took them." He has a temper tantrum, falls on his knees, sad, and, retorts hurt, now, "Oh, but we had, a deal! That bastard promised me." The guy takes out his cell and dials 911, done, "K. Cops it is!" He laughs and The Necromancer gets up, shakes his head and protests tired, "Wait! Tell me. Am I, in Peace or Heaven?" The guy responds and bluntly, says serious, "Buddy, you're in Austin, Texas." The Necromancer looks shocked and astonished now, by this and sighs upset, with Aaron.

*Mystic Falls, Virginia, Morning, The Present- The Saltzman Boarding School: For The Young and The Gifted- The Hallway/Faye and Alyssa's Bedroom*

Faye's hair is flowing, down, in luxurious curls. She's wearing, a navy-blue vest, a white tank top, navy-blue, and white plaid, skirt, black boots, on. She's carrying, a small, brown box, of her stuff, inside. She's moving back, into the school. She speaks and says sad, "Starting over, in theory, it's simple. You put, the past behind you, take what you learned, and begin again... She walks up the steps and then, goes down the hall and continues, "But it's not as easy as it sounds; moving, on means letting things, go... She sees Josie and smiles at her and Josie notices upset and then turns a corner, going to class, and Faye sighs sad, by that, but continues, going down the hall. "Things that are: familiar, safe, things, that matter — it's not that easy... She walks right past MG, who says nothing to her and she continues, walking and then turns a corner and sees Lizzie and Sebastian making out, against a wall and she smiles and then walks right past them and goes to her room. "Someone, once said, 'You can't, go home, again'. I hope, like hell, they were wrong." She opens the door and walks in and sees it's completely, changed. One side of the room is already decorated and her side isn't. It's completely, blank and, empty. There's another bed, in the room, besides hers and she looks shocked, and, surprised, by this. A brunette girl, notices, from on her side, of the room and comments with a smile, now, "Ah, it's just. you." Alyssa Chang is wearing, a black jacket, with gold buttons down the middle, a black shirt, with a white collar, to it, a black and white plaid skirt, black see thru stockings and black heels on. Her dark, brown hair, is flowing, in curls. Faye responds, with a smile and retorts confused, by this, "Alyssa, what's all of this?" She nods and explains, the situation, with a smile, "Oh. I moved in, when, you were, gone or whatever?" Faye nods and says nothing, still in shock, and Alyssa comments, to the left side, of, the room and says sternly, "Your side is over, there." Faye nods, but admits sad, now, "I usually, just, have, a single?" Alyssa nods upset and retorts with a smile, in agreement, now, "Which is what I had, until this, exact moment!" Faye sighs and says nothing, with a smile, as she continues and lays out, her schedule and morning routine for her, to understand, "I go to bed, at 10. So, no late night visitors! I'm allergic to ants, so no eating, in the room." She smiles and Faye says nothing, still in shock, but nods. Alyssa grabs her perfume and sprays it on her, as she leaves and the fumes get caught in Faye's throat, and she coughs in shock, by that, as she puts it, down on a ledge, done and says with a smile, before, leaving, "Later, roomie!" Faye nods and she leaves. Faye sighs, in frustration, by this and looks upset, again.
