John got up and followed Chas, holding his neck as he walked. When they were alone he said weakly "It's not worth worrying her right now about that ghost...it was sent back to hell by those shadows..." He looked terrible as they knocked on the door. The door opened and a shadow was there, holding the door. Serena was up and slipping on a tank top over her bra, the pair seeing scars all over her back before it was covered.

She turned and said "I'm up...my friends tell me we had a ghost show up last night? A wind spirit?" John stared at her and then said "How on earth did you know that?" Serena smiled and her eyes glowed silver again. "Because I know the ghost. Nasty little thing that has been following me around since I got Kay's scent. It isn't stopped by seals or charms...its just a nasty little thing that was sent to track. But it hit likes a train. You alright John?" John was leaning on the door frame and nodded weakly. "Ya...I'm alright. Good to know it wasn't just my spell work being off..."

Serena looked at Chas, a frown on her face. "Did he sleep at all last night? Which...could you guys fill me in on what happened after dinner?"

When Chas found John he was still on the floor out cold. But he was starting to wake up as Chas ran over to him. Now he sat at the table with an ice pack on his neck and his eyes closed. When Kay came in he didn't look up as he said "Its nothing to worry about yet...sometimes spirits get in here...it would have been fine...if I hadn't been tapped out. I can handle this..."

He still looked like crap, the forced nap not helping his drained state. "Chas, your making it sound like it almost killed me. Its not that bad. And Serena's shadows came to my rescue..." He opened his eyes to look at Kay. "Why don't we check on Ms. Serena shall we?" He was trying to get the attention off himself.

Serena was still asleep until she heard talking, opening her eyes weakly but not getting up yet.

John waved goodbye to him then once he heard the door shut he got up, heading up to his work space again. Slower this time to make sure he didn’t fall over. He stood over the desk and started looking over things but a strange symbol caught his eye. He moved over and picked it up, moving other papers off of it. It was a symbol that had been found when Serena’s energy had first popped up. He frowned and started to look into that.

It was almost dawn when John was on the ladder pulling books down when a strange wind blew thru the room. He cursed and moved off the ladder, book in hand. He turned slowly, his mind already tired as he said “alright...whose there? I am not in the mood for anything but a hard drink and a bed but I don’t get to have those things right now so bugger off” suddenly a dark laugh and a huge burst of wind hit John, sending him flying and slamming into the bookcase, making his slid down and hit the floor. He was barely able to sit up and moved his hands in a certain way and muttered “I banish this evil back to the depths...here me now spirits!” The wind was stopped but he wasn’t strong enough to banish it fully. But suddenly shadows jumped up and helped, pulling the wind ghost back to hell where it belong. John felt blood somewhere on his person when he saw a all black wolf appear before him, silver eyes looking back at him.

“They will start coming, magic one...you must be ready...” the wolf vanished and John tried to get to his feet. But it was too much and he fell forward, hitting the floor and blacking out.

John smiled weakly and said “of course. I won’t move from here until I’m feeling better. I swear. Now get home Chas...you have a sweet girl waiting for you...two of them if I remember right?” He smiled again, lying thru his teeth. But he wasn’t keeping Chas from his family anymore. He had done enough to his best friend as it was.

The shadows in the room moved and wrapped around Kay protectively, seeming to want to help in some way. Serena was still out cold in her room but her powers were still acting on her will.

John sat down and held his head, shaking it as Chas sat across from him. “Just loose on my steps is all...you don’t have to stick around. You have a promise to keep...I’ll be fine really....” he would wait till Chas left then go back to his work. He was tapped out and he knew it, bu the girls lives were on the line.

He looked up at him, his eyes dull. “Really I’m good. Just need to get my bearings and I’m solid...nothing get me down long...”

John waited till the pair was gone and he flinched, holding his head. “That was more work then I thought...both these girls are going to make things interesting...” he stopped at the stairs and the room spun again. His legs buckled and he grabbed the railing, holding himself up.

He heard steps behind him and he muttered “Chas...”

John waved his hand and said “I’m alright...you can have anywhere you wish. There’s another room by Serena if you want a bed to yourself...and the bathroom is at the end of the hallway...” he swayed a little and saw Chas. “Hey mate...no I’m alright. I need to look up what the heck that was...if more of demons like that show up I’d rather be prepared...”

He started to wake back to the stairs but after he took a few steps the whole room spun and he grabbed the wall. He closed his eyes a moment, hoping to shake off the feeling. “Mind helping her to a room Chas?”

John smiled at her weakly and said “my guess? She must have been channeling their wishes in her weakened state...the flamed messenger is another name for what your kind used to be called. Must be why she was drawn to you...”

He flinched and lowered his head, clearly tapped out. “We will figure it out...don’t worry...she’s out of the woods now. Just needs time to recover. I can’t believe she was able to fight off the other demon why hurting like this...” he slowly got up, his breathing a little labored.

Serena was limp in Chas’s arms, shaking a little as he laid her down in the bed. The shadows around the room moved around, watching her with wordy.

John was flinching as the magic worked, finding it harder to cleanse a demigod then he had thought. He kept his chanted up, a glow starting in his eyes to show how much effort he was using. Serena shaking badly, her breathing labored as she opened her eyes weakly to see Kay. Then her eyes glowed silver again and she said in a soft voice “the gods...they worry for their flamed messenger...they sent me...to protect...the shadow of the moon...the guardian of the...” then she cried out again, he smoke getting thicker and faster as it was pulled out of her.

John was panting and looked at Chas. “This is heavy stuff...this wasn’t a normal bug sting....this was meant to bring down a GOD...how she lasted this long....” suddenly the seal flashed and the smoke seems to be blown out of her, making Serena gasp. Then it was over. Serena went limp on the floor, looking a mess. John leaned back, making sure to keep Serena’s head safe on his lap. “Let’s move her to one of the rooms...she will be out for a while...” John looked like a mess, panting.

John was grabbing things and pouring them into a bowl he had grabbed on his way over, muttering over it as fast as he could. Then he looked up and said “alright, this is going to hurt, a lot. But we have to do the fast method to save her soul in time..the nasty bugger is poisoning her very soul...if she were a full human, she would already be a soulless vessel of the demon world...”

Serena was shaking, sweat pouring all over her. John finished mixing and then put the mixture onto the bite then moved to put it on her face. “Chas, you will have to help hold her down...Kay? Don’t let her move or let her give up, alright?”

He moved so her head was in his lap now and he started chanting over her, a seal appearing around them as small trails of red smoke started to lift from Serena’s body. As this happened Serena cried out in a new level of pain, trying to move away.
