Ashton was pacing in front of the sleeping Allison.

"Hey, you okay?" Luke asked him.

"I'm fine," Ashton sighed, "it's just... confusing."

"I get it. Give it time, you'll see that everything works out," he said.

"Thanks Luke," the older demon said.

"Shouldn't she be awake by now?" Luke asked.

"I thought so too, go get Michael," Ashton frowned.

Luke left and went back to the kitchen where Calum and Michael were talking.

"Allison's still not waking up and Ashton's getting concerned," He said.

"I'll be there in a minute," Michael replied. He got up and went to his library to get some stuff.

"You coming?" Luke asked Calum.

"Sure,"

The demons went back to the room to see Ashton still pacing.

"Do you think Jake may have done something?" Luke asked.

"I don't know, but I think that might be the case," Ashton replied.

Michael entered the room a couple minutes later with a potion and an old looking book.

"What's that for?" Luke asked.

"To see where she's struggling," Michael replied.

He poured the liquid on her and Ashton was about to protest, but it never hit her.

It hovered above her.

Michael closed his eyes and moved the liquid slowly with his hands.

He moved from her toes, to her stomach, to her heart to her arms and lastly to her head.

The transparent potion turned red when it hovered above her head.

"That's what I was afraid of," Michael sighed.

He moved the potion back into it's bottle and it turned back transparent.

"What?" Ashton asked.

"She's stuck inside her own head, again," he explained.

"So? Luke can get her out of it just like last time," he said.

"I don't know if that's such a good idea, Ashton. She still a human after all," Michael tried to reason with him.

"A human with growing demon powers, she'll survive. Luke, do it," The older demon commanded him.

Luke looked at Michael for a moment to see if he would protest but he didn't react.

"Fine, but I can't concentrate if you're all gonna keep starting at me. Go make yourselves some where else useful," Luke said.

Calum and Michael obeyed immediately but Ashton stayed.

"You too, Ashton," he said.
