John stared, stunned. Serena cursed loudly and said “dang it john! That’s the last thing you should have told her! I had it handled!” She moved over and picked John up; slamming him into a tree. “I had him! You just needed to break the spell that’s all!” 

She turned and said to the bane. “Hunt them down! I tagged her with one of my reapers. Use it to find her. That mage won’t know it’s there. Find them now Bane” bane nodded and said “your wish my darling” he vanished. 

Serena turned back to John and wanted to slug him in the face. She couldn’t understand her rage right now. All she wanted was Kay back. John couldn’t believe he had failed Kay. He almost welcomed Serena beating the crap out of him. He was shaking and drained. The hex was still going. “Kay…” Serena cursed and moved to slug him, tears in her eyes.
