As Sibuna headed home from finding the dagger, they saw the lights on in the house. They noticed something else. "Guys, the lightning and the sky! It's gone."

"That's strange." Mara stated. They went inside.

Mick was there.

"Mick?"

"Hey, guys! I threw myself a little welcome home party if that's okay. Since, none of you even noticed that I was back." Mick smiled, and entered back into the common room.

"He threw himself a party?" Nina asked. "I know, right? It's so lame." Amber smacked her lips.

"How did we not notice he was back?" Jerome wondered. "Well, with everything going on, can you blame us?" Fabian responded. Nina noticed that there were beer bottles and bags of chips leading up the stairs.

She glanced at the girls and sighed. "If I find two idiots making out in my room, I'm going to be so ticked!" Amber screeched.

They headed upstairs. When Nina and Amber entered their room, they saw a drunk frat boy going through Nina's box of things and holding the Cup of Ankh.

The boy looked at the girls, and passed out.

Nina rolled her eyes. She took her box and set it aside as she dragged the boy out. "Aren't you worried about that guy seeing something?" Amber wondered.

"Oh, please. He probably won't even remember any of this in the morning."

As Nina entered back the room, she noticed that the Cup had cheesy dust on the thin part.

"God, I hate college." She grabbed it and took out her towel to wipe it off. "I wish we could just skip the whole thing and get our degrees and know everything we're supposed to know for the rest of our lives." Nina complained.

Nina didn't know this, but she was twisting around the second lower part of a piece of the Cup, and it was releasing someone more heartless than the word itself.

The Cup glowed. It shook. Nina dropped it, and it released a greyish smoke that formed a woman, that had a similar appearance to Senkhara.

She sniffed. Amber gasped, and sat next to Nina. She immediately turned her head around. "The Paragon. If I could spit, I would. On you."

"You're horrid."

The woman ignored Amber's comment, and stepped towards Nina. "Who are you?"

"Your worst nightmare."
