LOST TIME
BY: RENO-SKY
I'LL FIND YOU
Reid and Tyler had rushed down to Kate and Sarah's room when they saw Caleb on the floor holding the unconscious Lexi in his arms and Sarah watching on in fear.
"What happened?" Reid snapped.
" I don't know... Caleb and me were coming down the hall talking when we heard her screaming, Caleb's Using you guys."
Tyler and Reid walked around Caleb and Alexis' bodies, and sure enough as black as night were Caleb's eyes, but they looked glazed over like in a trance.
"How long has he been like this?" Tyler asked Sarah, as he was waving his hands infront of Caleb's face.
"Since I called you guys, maybe five minutes."
"Reid something isn't right... He should've been able to Use and they would both be awake..."
"AAAAHHHHH!"
"Caleb!"
Reid and Tyler both flung forward, Reid caught Caleb in time before his body crashed on top of Lexi. Tyler pulled Alexis out of Caleb's grasp.
"Here you can put them on the beds," Sarah said as she threw all the blankets off her bed, so Reid could lay Caleb on it. And quickly moved to do the same on Kate's bed for Alexis.
"What do we do now?"
"I dunno, we should call Pogue."
"I'll do it." Sarah moved away and shakily typed in Pogue's number.
"Maybe we should take them to their house, or to the old house maybe Gorman would know..." Tyler suggested.
Reid sighed, "Sarah let me talk to Pogue."
Sarah nodded and handed her cell to Reid.
"Reid what the fuck is going on!?" Pogue's deep voice growled.
"I dunno! But what do we do? Alexis and Caleb look like they aren't getting up anytime soon."
Reid heard Pogue let out a deep sigh, "Take them home, can you do that and wait for me and Kate. Is that clear?"
"Understood." Reid snapped the phone shut and handed it back to Sarah.
"What did Pogue say?" Tyler asked, watching Reid closely. He wasn't used to Reid being so mature.
"Our orders are to take them home I am sure Evelyn will want to know that her son and adoptive daughter are in trouble. Baby Boy give Sarah your keys so she can bring around the Hummer, you and me can carry these two out. It's a good thing its night time."
Tyler nodded as he grabbed his keys out of his pockets and handed them to Sarah who left out the room in a hurry.
"So who you wanna carry?" Reid asked in attempt to joke.
"I am NOT carrying Caleb," Tyler said.
"And that's why you're Baby Boy," Reid teased as he Used a little to flip Caleb's limp body over his shoulder easier. While Tyler picked up Alexis bridel syle, he didn't need to Use.

Lexi? Are we dead?
I don't know Caleb. I guess since we keep heading towards the light we are dead.
If we are dying, I'm glad we are together.
Sounds kinda emo coming from you Caleb. Not something I expected from the Golden Boy.
This is hardly the time for jokes.
Death doesn't have to be sad Caleb. It can be happy. You're with me.
I know, wherever you are, it's so dark I can't see you.
I know.... Caleb?
YEAH?
Will you kiss me?
Kiss you? Why?
I don't know really just seems like a good thing to do since I'm dying.
Oh wow, you'll only kiss me when we're dying.
Haha, you have a girlfriend dum-dum.
Oh right...
Caleb I can't see you. I know you're there, but I'm afraid.
Big bad Lexi Danvers is afraid? What was this about death can be happy you were saying not so long ago?
It's really Alexis Montagomery dum-dum.
Nah, you've always been a Danvers to me.
Why thank you, Mr. Danvers.
Your welcome, Mrs. Danvers
Haha. Weirdo...Caleb, I can't wait to be with you for really long time on the other side. I'm sorry for Tyler and Sarah though.
I know...

When Reid kicked on the front door of the Danvers' Mansion, Evelyn's expression went from anger to horror in a matter of 5 seconds.
"What has happened!?"
"We dunno...." Reid said, falling slightly under Caleb's weight, "Can I ppplllleeeassee come *huff huff* in?"
"YES!"
Reid with Caleb made his way to the living room, he laid Caleb on one of the huge couches, and right across from it, Tyler placed Alexis on it. Sarah had been following the boys and had sat on a recliner chair watching Caleb's body with eyes of a hawk.
"We gotta wait for Pogue,"Tyler said. He ran a hand through his brown hair, he didn't like one moment of this.
"You guys hear that?" Sarah said quietly, they all listened. A roaring engine came from the front yard.
"It's just Pogue," Reid said. Not a half a second later Pogue with Kate on his six came running into the living room. As soon as he saw Caleb and Alexis' bodies on the couches he swore. He walked to Caleb's body and leaned down to hear a strong heartbeat.
"Baby boy check Alexis' pulse," Pogue said.
"No... no one touch her..." Caleb said weakly. Sarah's eyes widened, and she ran to Caleb's side.
"Caleb!" Evelyn yelled. Caleb ignored everyone, and fell to the floor and crawled to Lexi's side.
"Lexi, please wake up. If I can you can. Don't go into that light," he said, tears actually fell. Tyler, Reid, and Pogue surrounded him, but only one had a frown on his face.
"Alexis, you can't leave us again... You can't leave me again. I need you," Caleb yelled.
The soft words that came from her sweet mouth damn near broke Caleb's heart.
"Caleb... Don't make me wait so long on the other side... I see my parents and Uncle James..."
Ok, Please Review! Again I really listen to criticism. Thanks!
