Trish smiled and looked at him. “Lobsters mate for life. They find the one and stay with them for life. It’s amazing…” she looked around and said “is Serena going to be okay?”

Serena sat up a little and smiled. “What did you play? Or were you a singer?”

John looked at the two she was pointing at and nodded. “It could be either…how can we be sure?” He rubbed his eyes, looking beat.

Chas smiled finding how incredibly smart Trish is. She was an incredible young girl and surely had one hell of a future in front of her. "Serena will be just fine. Shhe just needs some sleep and she'll be back to her normal self" he reassured him.

Seeing Serena sit up a bit instead of settling down made him softly smile and shake his head. "I play guitar, pretty typical really. But I wanted to go to study the whole writing of music more." he explained.

Kay tapped the book's page as she tried to think of an idea, when one quickly struck her. "you got anything similar to tracing paper? Paper that's thin enough that I'll see through it?" she asked him. "I can draw out the symbols from the book on the paper then we can use that to place over the symbol on the map and see if they match up" she explained her idea.

Trish nodded and walked back over to him. “You have a daughter yes? What is she like?”

Serena smiled and said softly “that’s amazing. I would love hear something you have written some time…” she flinched and held her ribs for a moment, closing her eyes for a moment.

John smiled at her and nodded. “In the desk second drawer. There’s tracing paper and pencils.” He turned the map again and rubbed his eyes again.

Chas smiled as Trish asked more questions, "she's a good kid. Smart. Loves drawing" he told her, the fondness for his daughter clear in his tone.

Josh smiled shyly as she said she wanted to hear what his music was like. "maybe I'll show you sometime" he told her.

Kay nodded and went to the desk's middle drawer. Finding what she needed she came back over and lightly pressed the tracing paper over the book to make sure she got the size correctly before taking it off the book and doing the finishing bits and details free hand.

With it done, Kay then handed it to John to check if it matched up.

Trish smiled snd said “she sounds like fun…can I meet her? Is she around my age? can we be friends even though I’m different?

Serena smiled and laid back down, rubbing her face. She turned a little to get more comfortable and said weakly “you should keep going for your dream…it’s important…”

John moved the page over the map, starting to line it up and see which one matched the best. He frowned a little, not finding it at first. Then he paused and his eyes got wide.

Chas smiled back at her having had a feeling she would ask to meet her. "I don't see why not, as long as Josh is okay with it. Of course you can be friends. She won't care that you're different. She knows about John so she won't be afraid of that." he told her.

Josh smiled a bit at her words, "maybe when things get into a more stable situation. Between the three jobs I have and raising Trish I just don't have the time, but we'll see" he told her.

Kay watched him take the paper and do the line up, at first thinking it was a dead end but when his eyes went wide she thought they had something. "does it line up?" she asked him, subconsciously stepping even closer to him, placing her hand on his back.

Trish smiled and clapped her hands a little. “Really? I’m so happy!” She jumped and hugged Chas tightly. “My first friend! I can’t wait to meet her…”

Serena tried to sit up and gave him a look. “I mean it Josh…the world needs your music…in it…” she fell back onto the pillows, her body giving up.

He glanced at her and said “yep, it lines up…to the Greek God Apollo…who drives the chariot that brings the sun”

Chas chuckled when Trish jumped him to hug him out of happiness. He hugged the girl back, seeing just how much it meant to her, but also made him a tiny bit sorry for the girl having had no friends before now.

Josh looked at her as she kept convincing him to go continue his dream and smiled softly, a slight blush on his face. "just...you worry about yourself and get some sleep. I'm right here" he told her.

Kay listened and wasn't expecting to be such a big named God for some reason. "we'll bugger me... So now what? I mean, it's great we got a small win figuring it out and all but-" she let her voice trail off as she tried to think of their next move when a small yawn crept up on her.

Trish moved her head back and said “when mom and dad died…we had to move…and that’s when my gift showed up. I haven’t been able to make friends in my new school…it’s been hard…”

Serena nodded weakly and closed her eyes, passing out then and there as her shadows moved into a defensive spots in the room. They weren’t taking chances anymore with their master.

John stood straight and said “we need to figure out why his vessel is in Seattle and what the threat is” he moved his glasses to rub his eyes, looking stressed.

Chas understood how it could make things difficult. When John first got into the occult, he wasn't understood by a lot of people either. "things will get easier for you Trish" he told her.

Josh watched her gwt comfortable and finally close her eyes to fall asleep, seeing her shadows go round her protectively as he remained in his chair until he was satisfied that she was properly asleep. "sleep well" he whispered fondly.

"maybe you should take a break first John. It's not like we can get to Seattle until the morning anyway" Kay told him, concern in her tone at how stressed and worn out he was.

Trish sighed and played with her pony tail as she said “I hope so…it’s been so hard on josh…I don’t want to make him worry more if he knew I didn’t have friends on top of all of this…” tears filled her eyes again as she looked at the ground.

Serena curled up a little, her hand going under her pillow like she was grabbing something. Her shadows moved and pulled the blankets over her, but they got the blanket caught on one of the posts.

John rubbed his face and said “not yet…I have to look into a few things first…too much to do now…” he paused and held his head, his eyes killing him.

Chas really felt sorry for the young girl, she had so much on her shoulders at such a young age. "hey... It'll be okay" he told her giving her a hug again. "how about we go get some ice cream?" he suggested.

Josh saw what the shadows were trying to do and smiled, getting up and walking over, taking over in freeing the blanket from the post and pulling it over Serena. He smiled fondly down at her and stroked her hair." sweet dreams" he whispered.

Kay frowned when he refused to pause. She saw him in discomfort, putting her hands on his arms and making him look at her. "no, you're not doing a single thing other than take a half hour break. Your eyes need a rest and you've not eaten at all since last night. Stop overworking yourself" she told him.

Trish smiled and nodded, wiping her eyes. “Can we bring some back for Josh and the others? I think John is over doing it because he feels guilty over Serena getting hurt for him…”

Serena sighed and moved her head almost into his palm, subconsciously liking the feeling. The shadows moved around Josh like they were trying to hug him in thanks.

John paused then sighed. “I just want to fix this…I feel like it’s my fault this happened to her…she was tapped out from the fire last night and from taking that spirit for me…if she hadn’t she wouldn’t have been too weak to receive the visions…” he rubbed his eyes again, pulling his glasses off.

Chas smiled at how she was thinking about everyone else as well as herself. "of course we can. Come on, let's go tell Josh where we're going so he knows where you are" he told her, wanting to do right by the guy.

Josh smiled as he felt the shadows circling him as if to try and thank him and hug him. He also smiled as Serena subconscious leaned into his palm. "no need to thank me" he told the shadows.

As John spoke, Kay listened and sighed. "I know you do, we all feel bad. If I hadn't have been taken nether of you would have been hurt in the process. So I get your need to do right. But John being overworked to the point of passing out is not going to help anyone. None of this is your fault though. So please? Come take just a few minutes out to rest with me?" she asked of him almost pleadingly.

Trish nodded and jumped up and twirled. “He was with Serena. She doesn’t like sleeping in an empty room. Too hard to protect herself when she first falls asleep.” She skipped to the door.

The shadows moved back so he could move and Serena curled into her pillows more, the shadows moving around her. But it looked like they were wrapping around her wounds and a silver glow started to appear.

John sighed and then nodded softly, rubbin his face. “Alright love…just a few minutes…if it will make you feel better…”

Chas chuckled at how much happier Trish seemed to get and lead her out of the garden room, leading her to where Josh was. It still amazed how much she knew about Serena when they had only just met. Reaching the room he saw Josh back in the chair across the room and the shadows seeming to heal up Serena's wounds.

"I said I'd take Trish to get some ice cream, if that's okay with you" he said quietly to Josh, to which Josh nodded, "sure, she'll love that."Josh replied.

Seeing John finally give in to her request made Kay sigh inwardly with relief, glad that for once he was actually listening to someone." yes it will make me feel betted" she said back at him eith a defiant smile. She took his hand and dragged him to the couch and sat down, pulling him with her. "you gotta just stop sometimes John" she told him.

Trish was waiting at the bottom of the stairs so she didn’t chance waking Serena. She was bouncing on her feet.

The shadows were moving around and circling Serena as her wounds slowly started to heal. It seemed to only work on the wounds that weren’t being touched by the light of the lamp by the bed.

John sat down and held his face for a moment, putting his glasses in his pocket. “It’s hard to slow down sometimes…I get catch up you know?”

Chas nodded and headed downstairs where he saw Trish waiting for him, bouncing on her feet which made him smile. She really did remind him of Geraldine so much. "we're good to go" he told her.

Josh could see what the shadows were doing and wondered if turning off the lamp near her bed would be of some help to them, so he got up and walked over to the lamp, turning it off. "hope that helps" he told the shadows.

Kay sighed, but she did understand it. "I do get it. Probably more than you'd think, whether it was down to mundane things like my studying or just not stopping when on the streets. It wasn't just demons or whatever else I was trying to keep a low profile from. It was also the general cops and such" she explained. "but that's why I nag you to stop every now and then. Because I know what it does to your wellbeing when you don't" she told him.

She reached her arm round his shoulders and rested her head against him, to try and calm him in some way, not even sure if it would work.

Trish smiled wider and headed for the front door, running so fast she barely missed running into other things along the way.

The shadows moved again and reached her other wounds now, healing faster in the darkness. She glowed silver now, the shadows making quick work of her injuries.

John sighed and rubbed his temples, the pounding slowing a little. He closed his eyes and tried to relax a little but this was one thing he wasn’t very good at. Relaxing.

Chas chuckled at the way Trish was being excited over getting some ice cream. He was so glad that he could help with something, to give the others a chance to have a proper break. Everyone needed it and he knew Trish would soon get too bored doing nothing round the mill house. "careful Trish" he said to her, as he followed her to the front door and headed out with her.

As Serena started to glow silver, Josh looked on out of intrigue and interest. He had never seen anything like it before and it was quite frankly one of the most fascinating things he had ever seen in his entire life. He couldn't take his eyes off the shadows and Serena.

Kay really did feel sorry for John, it was clear this was all getting too much for him to shoulder. "we'll figure this out, don't worry. I promise" she said softly to him, giving his shoulder a slight massage. She reached her free hand over and held his, interlocking their fingers. "you don't have to deal with this on your own, just like you told me I don't have to deal with my stuff alone. We're a team now...bonded quite literally to each other. So allow me to shoulder some of this with you" She continued saying.
