Hey, guys, this is the promised drama filled chapter. I have skipped the interview day because I've written them before for other stories and I find them boring now. I know I completely missed March out so I'll try to get two updates in April but I am going to see Hollywood Undead on April 22nd so how that will fit in I don't know but I am vlogging it.

The video I have on my mind is the REVOLT tour log 1 where you see Danny snort some random sauce which I have no idea if it mayo or salad cream or something like that...

This does have a bit more of Danny's backstory in it.

+ Danny p.o.v+

Today we are going back to the orphanage for the first time in a while. We have been going to a new hunting location as we are still are nervous about being discovered but we know this is the best place to take newbies for their first hunt so this is where we are taking Jess for her first hunt. Jorel, George and I are one hunting team and Jordon, Dylan and Matt are on the other team and it has been this way even since there have been six members. Airia goes with Jordon and so will Jess after her first and when Asia comes hunting she goes with us. Asia tends to go with George on the weekend since it is kind of romantic for them and George uses a bit of his essence to keep my nightmares at bay even though it doesn't always work.

I don't get nightmares often but when I do they are about what she did to me, not about what Deuce did. I don't know if it is because of the time span of both those events or not but the nightmares terrify me. Sometimes they are so bad they turn into night terrors. George and Jorel are always there to wake me whenever either a nightmare or night terror happen and they both calm me down enough so I can try to sleep again, but I always ask for one of them to stay with me so I feel a little safer. Jorel is usually the one who stays as George shares his bed with his wife.

Jorel has been considering staying with me the entire night to see if that will put an end to the nightmares and night terrors but we haven't had a chance to really try it out since Jess turned as he had to do the same meetings he did with me and they asked for her to be trained there since she is the female version of Dylan cambion wise. Those two are also really close to getting together which would leave Airia alone in the attic room but I don't think she minds that.

I am still 21 years old but in cambion age, I am around four or five months old since I was changed late November/early December. Since I am that young I still tend to do mundane things while my body gets completely used to the change of life. I still sleep pretty much all night apart from nightmares and stuff but the other guys do that too, they don't take naps during the day though which is something I do quite a bit.

I actually had a really bad night terror, one of the worst I've had since I was brought here. So I am currently feeling the exhaustion of not sleeping the entire night last night so I am probably going to end up taking a nap today at some point. The guys won't mind as they've kind of gotten used to it if I have a few bad nights sleep. They have also put me into the daily vlogs that they do, which I haven't been in since I arrived because it wasn't really the right time.

We filmed a new little cute intro with us holding Ava and then putting her down so she could run to the next person and when it gets edited then it is going to have freeze frames on us when we pick her up or are holding her and it will have our names on the bottom. We have two or three channels that we vlog on. One is cambion exclusively on a separate website which you need a special access code, it is a new way for the leaders to keep an eye on us.

The other two are our YouTube channels. One Hollywood undead one and the other one which got the new intro is more of a family kind of one which George owns but since we all live together we all end up in that one. There are ten people in our household so it is kind of hard to hide at times. I am not really in the vlogs that much since I am a shy guy and since I wasn't revealed to be in the band until a few days ago so they kept me out of them.

I walk into the living room and flop down onto the couch. I rub my eyes, hoping that somehow I'd feel less tired and I'd be able to go through the day without taking a nap. However, I know we are going hunting tonight so I probably will get told to go to take a nap or something. "Uncle Danny need a nap?" Ava asks me, and I smile at her. She is such a sweet child, never once called me Danny or Daniel. It has always been uncle or uncle Danny to her.

"I might do Ava," I answer her and she climbs onto the couch and snuggles into me. "And here is Ava with Danny," George says into the camera before turning it around so that the lens is focusing on me. and Ava. "Hey internet," I say, trying to put enthusiasm into my tone even though I was absolutely exhausted. Ava was playing with my fingers. George stops recording and puts the camera down after powering it down. He crouches down in front of me and I knew what was going to happen.

"Hey, why don't you take a nap, Danny? We have a few hours to kill before we need to get ready to go and since it is about two in the afternoon you can take it with Ava on the couch," George says, concerned for me like usual. I knew it was fast approaching Ava's nap time so taking one with her wouldn't do anyone any harm right? "Yeah I suppose you're right, I'm feeling really exhausted so it wouldn't do me any harm just to take a little nap?" I tell him and he grins.

Usually, I put up a fight when he asks since I am not as exhausted then as I am now. Jorel usually is the one to make me take a nap since he has the highest level of authority so I can't be as cheeky or defiant with him. Not that I am defiant with them, I can be cheeky at times but that is kind of how I was before everything happened. I am almost completely over the childlike state and the whole jumping and flinching but I do get caught out occasionally.

Ava crawls up onto my lap and I take her down with me as I lie down. I go to lie down on my side so she would have more room but she wanted to fall asleep on my chest so I had no choice but to stay on my back but it didn't matter since I will sleep in whichever position I end up in and it can end up looking uncomfortable. George covers us both in a blanket and kisses both of our heads. He is like a father figure to me most of the time and brother other times.

I let out a yawn and Ava giggles. "Uncle Danny really sleepy," Ava says with a little giggle. I smile and hug her tightly. "Yeah well it's nap time now so we go sleep and feel better in a little bit," I tell her and she snuggles up to me. Ava rubs her eyes and soon enough she is fast asleep on me. The night terrors always leave me terrified of falling back to sleep so I didn't sleep after half past two this morning and my body was telling me I shouldn't have done that even though Jorel cuddled me all night.

Cambions tend to need the same amount of sleep humans do. This usually means that cambions 0-12 possibly 18 months old need sleep as the body tries to cope with the fact that we are dead most of the time and we can switch to humans. It doesn't really make sense to people who don't know our lifestyle but to us, it's like when you get sick and you sleep it off a lot. I think, it could be me rambling because of exhaustion.

Ava doesn't seem to mind or pay much attention to the fact that we often have no heartbeat around her and she rarely sees us breathe. It might have to change as she gets older but since she is only a year old she won't remember this as she gets older. She is half cambion and half human anyway so it will be interesting to see how or if it affects her growing. The only thing so far is that she reached her milestones quicker than most babies but that sometimes happens to completely mundane babies.

I close my eyes and let the exhaustion have complete control over me. I can't keep going on this way. not getting enough sleep at night means I can slip when trying to control my powers and it takes more of my essence from me. We have done a couple of trail runs with being cambion and human playing shows and I have done well with both. I did slip up a couple of times with the bubble when I was cambion but it was to be expected since I am new to all of this and practice makes perfect right?

+Two hours later+

"Danny is still sleeping which is good for the newbie," Dylan comments and I keep my eyes shut. I am in the process of waking up and considering it has probably been some time since I fell asleep and it has done me some good. The only issue I have is that I can take a while to wake up, something to do with being a heavy sleeper I suppose. I decide to play along with it, see how far I can go without him knowing that I am awake now.

"Ava took an hour nap and Danny who took a nap with her is still sleeping two hours later," George says and I think he is vlogging this. "Jordon you are not drawing a moustache on him and neither are you Dylan," Jorel comments and I so want to smirk. I keep pretending to sleep because who knows I might actually fall back asleep again and be more a hundred percent for tonight. I might be able to use more of my siren powers that are developing.

I've been told time and time again that we are the opposites of nightmares, Sirens and nightmares can live in harmony. I can put the children under and we can work together manipulating dreams in between good and bad to get the maximum benefits. I can see George and I working closely together in the future. We are already close friends and like brothers so I can see it becoming a team when I get a little older and my powers get more developed.

I think Jorel cottoned on to my little plan. "Hey Danny, I know you're awake. What are you doing?"Jorel asks through the mental link."I wanted to see if I can sleep again plus it's interesting to hear the guys conversation while they think I'm asleep,"I tell him, if my eyes were open I would see him smirk. "Hmm, am I seeing the true Danny here? or have I rubbed off on you?"He asks, and roll over so hide my smile. "Hey is he awake or what?" I hear someone ask. "I don't think so, I mean he isn't responding to you and you know how much of a heavy sleeper he can be," Jorel answers.

"Maybe it is a little of both because I am a shy reserved guy usually I always listen without speaking or them knowing. It always helps me learn what the person is truly like as they don't put up a front around if they think you're a deaf guy,"I explain, revealing a little bit more of my past to Jorel. I feel a lot more comfortable than before when around him and I can tell him more about myself than I have ever told anyone. This is a big step for me, she ruined my life and I am now starting to ditch the shell I used to be.

"They thought you were deaf, wow. I mean that is one good way to get knowledge from people. I am glad that you are telling me more about yourself, though. You should really wake up, though, they think something is up,"Jorel tells me and I can feel the pride through the link. Every day since I arrived I have been making little steps to be getting better and recover from the seven months of hell that I have been through. I roll back over and fake the beginning of waking up.

"Hello Danny, how was the nap?" Jordon asks, taking the blanket off me and folding it up. "It was good," I reply and soon the camera is back. "Look at the little sleeping beauty awake now," Dylan says, ticking me off a little. "Yeah whatever, I took a nap no biggie," I tell him, tempted to flip him off. "Well, you do know it has been two hours right?" George asks me. I do know that since I heard him talk about it. "Uh no, how'd I sleep that long?" I ask Jorel knew that I know that.

"You were tired after not sleeping all night last night. I was expecting you to sleep longer than that," Jorel says. I rub my eyes a little bit and George lifts me up into a cuddle. I wrap arms around his neck and snuggle him. "He could have done with a little more sleep but we need to prepare for tonight, If we leave at midnight like usual even with two extra in our ranks then we should be done by six am. Jess needs introducing to our ways and who better to teach her than Danny?" George says going into planning mode while holding me.

Dylan is a little upset by this, the soulmate bond between him and Jess was clearer to see as the days went by. "Don't worry Dylan, I am only telling her the feeding ritual thingy we do. You can teach her the rest of our culture and our ways, I am still learning that bit so I can't really teach that," I explain, feeling a bit nervous and making the guys chuckle. "Feeding ritual thingy? Don't you mean hunting techniques?" George asks me and I hide my head, I should have known it was called that.

"What he said," I mumble into George's shoulder and they all have a laugh at my expense. "Aw it's okay Danny, I call it that sometimes," Jorel says, making me look at him briefly before hiding my head again. I didn't really believe him, he could be saying that just to make me feel better about myself and my little fail. "I do honestly, I don't even think there is an official name for it," Jorel says, taking me off George and making sure I had eye contact with him.

I seemed to slip back into a childlike state but considering I am four or five months old it isn't uncommon for it to still happen every now and again. I can think like a twenty-one year but I am stuck at a really young child age with my actions and behavior. This is really awkward and I don't really like it like this but it has to happen. At least, the guys support me and help me through it. Jess isn't really affected by it but she has moments just like I do. Her upbringing and everything were a lot better than mine.

"Don't worry Danny, nobody has a name for it and feeding ritual thingy is actually quite cute," Jorel tells me. George puts his hand on my back. "I didn't mean it to be nasty, it just haven't heard it from anyone else but Jorel before now and you are really cute," George says, rubbing my back a little bit. I had a blush on my cheeks, I do hate being called cute but I can't help the blush when it does happen. "I know, I think I took it the wrong way," I tell them, feeling a bit more calm and a bit more in control.

"That's okay Danny, why don't you go walk through the early stages of the hunt prep with Jess. We'll make dinner for tonight," Jorel says, putting me down and walking into the kitchen. I decide to head up the stairs to the attic room where Jess is resting. Airia is out getting the last of Jessica's clothes from Michael, Jess went with Jorel the day after she joined us. "Jess, Jorel asked me to help you with what is going on tonight," I tell her when I walk into her room.

"Okay, what do we have to do exactly?" she asks me. I go and sit on Airia's bed and look at her. I am still getting used to her being around and getting to know her. Jess seems really nice and I hope she can accept me as a brother. "Well the first thing we do is get into sweatpants and a jumper before we leave at midnight, they aren't sun protected but we are usually out by daylight and it is a tradition in the undead coven," I explain. The fact that it was a tradition confused Jess a little bit.

"We usually go to sleep when we come home for a couple of hours to fit into mundane life. The sweats and jumper are quite comfortable when you just want to go to get a couple of hours shut eye." I add, hoping I didn't screw up explaining it to her. I am always bad at explaining things. " That's alright, I understand what you mean," she tells me. I give her a small smile. "We usually leave at midnight and slip into two teams and you can go with Dylan after the first hunt is over," I tell her and she blushes when I mention Dylan.

"Why don't I go with him tonight?" she asks and I chuckle, she really has fallen for Dylan. "Because he is not with Jorel, George and I and the leader always supervise the first hunt," I answer. She looks a little disappointed but she understands where I am coming from. It isn't always easy for the first hunt to go successfully so Jorel will need to keep an eye on her so everything goes as smoothly as possible. I always wonder how Jorel copes with all the responsibilities he has.

I mean he has a full coven to keep an eye and all the duties and meetings a leader has. He also has to make sure we behave and that we don't reveal ourselves in public. He hasn't had any issues with it so far and I hope that I won't be the start of them. He told me that once every five years we have to go and be a mundane and get really unwell. It has to be a serious virus which we use to give us a little immune system boost. We can choose if we want to be in our coven hideout or at the local institute with other covens.

The Undead's reputation is one of the highest in all of the states. Even Deuce's actions and him leaving the coven didn't take it down that much. Jorel had to go to a lot of meetings and talks to make sure that he held himself as he needed to. He has done so much and gone through so much when he took over as being a leader in 1914. "We usually go to the same orphanage that we are going to tonight, however, the incident with the old lady has put us off a little bit so we will be going to a new location after tonight," I tell her.

"Oh okay but are orphanages the best place to get blood from?" she asks, making me chuckle. I don't think I have ever asked that but my memory can be a bit hazy after everything that has happened. "We don't usually drink blood, that is the emergency option," I tell her, making her confused as I was when Jorel first told me about Cambions. "We spiritually draw the essence from the children which will make more sense when we get there," I add making her chuckle.

"Well, I am glad it will make more sense later because I sure as hell don't understand it all now," Jess says. "Yeah, it makes more sense after you've fed for the first time. It is like you can feel the spirits of the children and it makes you stronger. You have to be careful not to overfeed as you don't know your own limits and too much essence can make you out of control," I tell her, feeling slightly out of place and I don't really talk about things in this way.

"I suppose that will be something I get help with from Jorel and everyone," she says. I smile and I wanted to hug her but I kept myself calm. I know I am still nervous around women and I want to give it a chance at being my usual self. "Of course, you will, we are all here to help you as much as we can. You are one of us now and don't ever make me say that again," I say with a laugh at the end and she joins in with the laughter. "I'll try not to, but that was pretty good. Is that everything I need to know for now," she asks me.

"Well, eventually we will hunt as one large coven as both the siren and the nightmare are the main helpers during the whole thing. We keep the children sleeping and in the states which get us the most benefits. Sirens are the ones who put the children to sleep if they wake up which keeps us from being detected by the humans, which in turn keeps us from being killed," I explain. "So who is who cause I don't really know the demon types," Jess says.

"Well Dylan really wants to tell you all that but I can tell you that I am a Siren and Airia is a nightmare," I answer her. She smiles, "What does a siren do exactly? I am sure that Dylan will not tell me the right stuff," she says with a cheeky smirk. "Ha-ha, he will glorify himself I am sure. Sirens are the ones who can control dreams, make them peaceful and put people into any varying level of sleep they desire at the time. Think of it as the legends you have heard without the luring people to death bit," I explain to her.

She looks at me in awe and I have no idea how to react. No one has ever looked at me in awe. No one has ever cared or paid attention to me in the way that these guys have done since they have taken me in and made me one of their own. My family loved me so much until I turned five and the accident happened then I have not had that love for over 15 years and the guys come in with the one thing I never really knew I was missing so much and gave me that love and things I really deserve.

I hope that one day I can see my real family again, my older brothers and sister. Would they even care about me or even think to look for me at this point in my life? Probably not but I still cling on to that hope no matter how faint it is right now. In my mind, there is always that little chance and possibility that I can rebuild that close sibling bond I had. I know Kyle and Rigo would watch the five-year-old me dance and sing on the good days when grief wasn't on my mind and stay with me on the bad days where I'd sit all day by the window on the seat, just waiting for mom and dad's car to pull up into the driveway.

Of course, the result of that day would always be the same, I'd get yelled at by my aunt. She'd scream that they were never coming back and it was all my fault and I'd lock myself in my room and cry all night in one of my brothers or my sister's arms. They never knew how much I wished it was me that never survived. The grief and all the mental abuse from my aunts and a few of my uncles was too much, would you blame a five-year-old child for an accident that they have no control over?

Jess snaps me back into reality. "Are you okay Danny?" she asks, concern all over her face. I stayed silent but I felt the tears building up so I shook my head. I need, to be honest with these people. "I'll get Jorel, stay put," she says and dashes out of the room before I could react. The tears just took over and I started sobbing. I am letting the grief for my parents take over, I know everyone here will support me. I heard running footsteps. " Danny, what's wrong buddy?" Jorel asks, concerned for me.

I couldn't make a vocal answer. "I thought about my parents and why my family abandoned me and why they blamed me for the death of my parents,"I tell Jorel through the mental link. He scoops me up into his arms and rubs my back. "Well, they were stupid to leave you. Danny, you are the most amazing person I have ever met. You are all the qualities of someone who everyone needs in their lives. My words will do no justice to what you've brought to our lives," Jorel tells me, desperate for me to calm down.

"One day we can get you reunited with your brothers and your sister and it will all work out okay in the end. Life is full of challenges which suck and we hate and curse but it makes us who we are. If that never happened then you wouldn't be the most incredible person who lets nothing get him down for long," Jess tells me and she joins in with the cuddle. I know they are right, even as Jess was talking I already was starting to feel a little bit better and the tears were beginning to stop.

"See Danny, I know you're already getting back to the bubbly you. Sometimes it's perfectly okay to cry. You had the worst thing to happen to a five-year-old ever. I still miss my parents and I've been around for at least a hundred years. You are not alone in this," Jorel tells me.I think Asia knows what is going on and enters the room. "Are you okay sweetheart?" She asks me, placing her hand on my back like her husband did not too long ago. I don't know what Jess is doing but she wasn't cuddling me anymore.

"Just missing his parents a little more today. My guess is that he was never given a chance to really grieve for them until now," Jorel answers, handing me over to Asia who walks to the nearest bed and sits down. She was holding me protectively and I had almost stopped crying completely. I rubbed some of the tears away. "Well you know you can come to anyone of us at any time if you need a more private moment just to cry a little," she says, looking at me and smiling.

"I know and I'm grateful to all of you for everything," I tell them, finally managing a smile. "We should get changed and do a little relaxing movie marathon until we need to go. We all need some de-stress it seems," Jorel says and I give all of them a tight hug and go down the stairs to my room. One of my rituals for the hunt night is to have a shower, I don't really know why. I think it is because my shower day just happens to be the same day we go out hunting.

So I go and have a shower and get ready for hunting. All I need to do is put my trainers on and possibly a jacket when we need to leave. It is April so it still gets kind of cold during the night and I do feel the cold and the heat. The clothes Michael modified for me work like a charm, I have no problems being in the sun. I go and take Ava to the park sometimes and I can go out and do the weekly shop and I have even seen my old band-mates.

I met up with Stephen and Kris as they had gotten my number from Jorel and they had texted me saying they heard I got really sick just after my 21st and they wanted to make sure I was okay and better now. I had to lie about the whole death thing and I told them I got one of the worst flu bugs ever and I just slept on and off for eight days trying to get better. Naturally they were concerned and asked to meet me the same day I texted them.

I asked Jorel who said it was fine but I'd have to go in the human form so they don't get worried about me or discover what I really am. I hate lying to them, but it is for their own safety really. So yesterday I went to the park we used to go to as children and met up with them and they were really happy to see me. We just talked for three hours and messed around a bit. I felt good to be able to spend that time with them I thought it wasn't going to be the same but for the most part, it was.

One of the side effects from being a cambion is your skin tone changes slightly. It is another thing that we can compare ourselves to vampires with. If you had a tan then the change would make you loose it. I was kind of tanned before but since she rarely allowed me out I didn't get much of a chance and my skin now has a sickly pale look to it which made Kris and Stephen concerned for my health again. I reassured them that I was completely over the bug which was six months ago, I just hadn't been outside much.

When I told them they laughed. They knew I didn't really get out much before I left the band and even now I don't get out much. They told me I should get out more and we are going to have a late birthday party for me since we haven't had the chance until now. It was great to see them again, we haven't set the date for the party yet. I missed the lads so much and we all left the band on mutual terms. We will see each other again soon I hope.

I am currently sitting snuggled into Jorel while we have our little movie marathon. It is like three in the afternoon or something so we have plenty of time to kill before the hunt and I'll end up taking another nap knowing me. I don't know why I can't last very long during marathons before falling asleep. They guys don't mind as they can put a horror film or two on while I'm out for the count and then change it before I wake up.

Kris: Hey Dan, you free this evening?

Me: Not tonight sorry dude :3

Kris: Oh, I just was thinking about having ur party tonight that's all.

Me: Aw dude, you could have told me earlier, We are celebrating American Tragedy's success tonight.

Kris: Sorry, we can make it next weekend or something, no biggie. How did it do?

Me: We debuted at number 4 :3

Kris: Well done dude, proud of you, wow number 4 that's amazing.

Me: I know at their last album was at 22 so I think I may have made a good impact

Kris: Listening to Glory right now, different but I like it, definitely made a good impact there

Me: Is it because I don't scream anymore?

Kris: That will probably be it, I still like it though

Me: Awesome, maybe you can come out to one of the tours?

Kris: I will definitely try to.

Me: Sweet I'll try to hook you up with a VIP pack if you want.

Kris: I'd like that dude, talk later. Have fun

Jorel was watching me the entire time I was messaging Kris. "Kris or Stephen?" he asks me. "Kris wanted to know if I was available for a party tonight but he decided to reschedule because I said we are celebrating American Tragedy tonight," I answer. He smiles "Good save there Danny, god knows what he would think if he heard we are going to an orphanage at night," Jorel says and I roll my eyes. "I would never dream of telling him what we really do," I tell him.

+ 5 am+

Well, this hunt could have gone a lot better. The old lady was so paranoid that she checked on all the children at least once every two hours. We couldn't get a decent hunt in, Jess did fine and got her fill and so did George. Jorel and I were using our powers to keep ourselves hidden and the children peacefully sleeping so we didn't get much. We are going to have to go someplace else tomorrow night. I glance at the window, what I see slightly panics me.

The sun is rising and about to come through the window. Jess and I should be fine with the sun if we only get lethargic. It is Jorel and George I am worried about. They blister in the sun, so it could be really bad for them. "Guys, we gotta go. The kiddos will be waking up and the sun is rising," I tell the others urgently through the link. "Shit you are right Danny let's go,"Jorel says and we quickly dash out of the building and the others stick to the shadows while Jess and I walk in the sun back home.

I felt tired but something was off. I feel like my skin is tingling and I have no idea why. "Jess, is your skin tingling?" I ask her. I hadn't looked at myself. "No, why?" she asks, worrying about me. "Mine is, and I thought maybe it is an effect from the sun that we'd both get," I tell her. She stops me and then pulls me into the alleyway where it is all shadows and shade. I instantly felt a little relief although the tingling never stopped, it just didn't get any worse.

"Dude, you're blistering. Are you sure you can walk in the sun?" she asks me quietly. There are some homeless people sleeping so I made it a little deeper and got my essence from them. "Yeah, Sirens are only meant to become lethargic in the sun," I tell her, just as quietly as she asked. We could call Matt to help us out but I had a feeling that we should be getting home and quickly.

"We have to keep moving, Jorel is going to get worried two of his coven haven't returned and are unprotected, we could die if we stay here," I tell her, ignoring the appearing blisters and going back into the sun and trying to go for the more shaded areas while keeping my head down and my arms covered. Jess quickly followed me and held onto my arm, guiding me back when I stumbled. To the mundanes, this must have looked strange. Two young adults in sweats, jumpers and trainers wandering the streets at five am.

Jess had a hoodie on though but she took it off and covered me in it, hoping it would help me against the sun's effects. It was brand new and she hadn't gone to Michael about it yet so it didn't help protect me but it helped with the cover we'd have to make and people couldn't really see my face anymore or the developing blisters. Jess was feeling lethargic and we were only ten minutes away from the hideout. Once we get there we'll be safe.

I quickly became worse and I couldn't stand anymore. I fell to the ground and Jess nearly fell with me. "Dude we have to keep going, we are nearly there,"she tells me and I feel like I can't answer her, I can't respond. I'm really weak and I don't even have the strength to send her a mental message. "Danny? You have to stay with me, we are ten minutes away from home," she says, crouching down and trying to get me to respond. By now some people were watching us and had their phones out. "No hospital," was all I could manage before my eyes rolled back and it went dark.

~Matt p.o.v~

Jorel has sent me out to find Danny and Jess, they should have returned by now. Jorel said it was the worst hunt they'd been on and they can't go back there. They returned at five am with blisters all over and no sign of the two younger ones who went with them. The blisters have already started healing and I am sure by the end of the day that they will be gone and George and Jorel will be fine. For now, I have sent everyone to bed and to rest while I go out and look for the missing two.

I am completely unaffected by the sun and Jess and Danny should only be a little lethargic so what is taking them so long to come home? I don't think I was going to like my answer. I spotted Jess ten minutes away from the hideout but she was surrounded by humans who had concern written all over their faces. As I got closer, if my undead heart could beat it would have stopped in panic. It had all gone wrong, so horribly wrong.

Danny was unconscious and covered in blisters, a lot worse than the ones Jorel and George had. Thankfully as he is so new, when he falls asleep or passes out he "breathes"so it would keep suspicion off him. The whole thing wasn't right, Danny should not have these blisters, sirens don't get them. "Jess what's going on?" I ask her. She was next to Danny and trying to keep the people back. "I'll take care of him there is no need for you to remain here," I tell them and they left one by one.

"We were walking back and he asked me if I felt my skin tingle, he said his did and I pulled him into the alleyway where I saw the blisters start showing up and we decided to continue but go for the shade and he fell and wasn't really responding to me and he said no hospital then his eyes rolled back and he went all limp," Jess explains. I touch Danny's forehead and he had no reaction, no response to my cold hand touching him at all.

"This is bad, Jorel and George have blisters but not as bad as Danny. We need to get him back home and get Hayden. Sirens never blister, they just get lethargic like you feel," I tell her and she looks at me. "What about you?" she asks. "I'm fine, bumps don't feel the effect," I tell her and I put one arm under Danny's neck and one under his knees. I lift him up and he is almost like a rag doll in my arms. Again there was no reaction to my touch at all.

"Jess, there are two hoodies in my backpack, grab them and cover yourself and Danny with them, it should make you feel better," I tell her and she does as she is told. At least now Danny's upper body shouldn't get any worse. I have no idea what his legs look like but if it is anything like his upper body then it will be bad. I run as quickly as I can with Danny in my arms and Jess follows. Luckily her speed isn't affected by the sun.

People gave me strange looks as I ran past them with a limp body in my arms but at that point, I couldn't really care less. I was identified and neither was he and I need to get him inside and away from the sunlight. He still wasn't responding to me and it was more than unnerving. We managed to get back to the house around five minutes, running took half the time it would have if I calmly walked with Danny in my arms.

I go to the lounge and back to the cot that I have seen him in so much over the time he has been here. He arrived eight months ago and even though I have seen him in his own bed more than the cot he has spent two weeks on it so far and it looks like it is going to happen more often. Poor dude, all he wanted was a way out of the nightmare relationship he was in and now he keeps getting hurt in one way or another.

Jess was feeling exhausted and Dylan was still up and waiting for her so he took her upstairs and didn't really question me and Danny. He didn't see Danny's blisters, he was covered by a hoodie. I took it off Danny and made him as comfortable as possible. Jorel wandered in, half awake but I think he heard me coming in. "What on earth happened?" he says, suddenly feeling more awake and dashing to be next to Danny and I.

"I found him like this about ten minutes away with Jess. It seems he has the same reactions as you and the nightmares to the sun," I tell him. Jorel gently touches Danny's forehead and the siren doesn't seem to respond to anything. "This is very unusual, we'll have to call Hayden. Sirens don't blister in the sun," Jorel says, his own blisters looked better than when I left and they were definitely better than Danny's.

He passes me the phone and it was already dialling our council leader. "Jorel, what's wrong my child?" he asks once he picks up, obviously concerned. "It's Matt, Danny has had the most unusual reaction to the sun we have seen and we might need your help," I explain. Jorel was trying to get Danny to react to him and assess how bad the blisters were. "That is unusual, don't worry Matt, I'll be there as soon as I can and we'll see what needs to be done," Hayden says, putting me at ease. If anyone can help us it is definitely Hayden.

"Thank you, Hayden. I'll let Jorel know," I tell him and he hangs up. I pass the phone to Jorel. "Hayden will be here as soon as he can," I tell him. Jorel smiles," I hope Hayden can help us. I haven't seen a Siren react like this like we all keep saying," he tells me and I give him a hug. I can tell his soulmate is Danny and he cares deeply for the Siren, let's just hope that we can sort the issues out and Danny will be okay.

I found the lightest blanket in the room and I bring it over. It is a hospital blanket George stole years ago and we've kept it and cleaned it as needed. "We should take his clothes off and see how bad he is," Jorel says and I nod. "I hold him up and you take?" I ask him and he nods. "Sounds like a plan," He says. I slip my hands under Danny's armpits and I get him into a sitting position. His head flops onto my shoulder and it seems like he has no idea what's going on.

"Have your hands under his jumper so you are touching his skin. I'll take his jumper off and then his sweatpants," He tells me, I put my hands under his skin, it is a little bit warm but it is one of the suns affects on him. "He feels a bit warm," I tell Jorel, holding Danny up while Jorel takes his pants off. Danny had blisters all over his skin and there was hardly any skin that didn't have a blisters on it. Poor Danny they must hurt him a bit. Jorel took Danny's shoes and socks and he had a bit of relief from the blisters there.

The blisters are like really bad sunburn for a cambion. It usually takes the day for them to disappear completely but Danny's didn't seem to start disappearing yet. Jorel touched Danny's skin to see if he would react and see what his temperature was like. "Yeah, he will cool down once he has been in the house for a while," Jorel says, we lie Danny down and cover him with the light blanket. He still doesn't seem to be coming round anytime soon.

There's is a knock on the door, and Jorel calmly walks to answer it. Hayden was standing there with his cloak on and concern on his face. "Come in Hayden," He tells the leader who walks in closing the door behind him and hanging his cloak up. He hugs both Jorel and I and kneels by Danny, stroking the younger male's hair. "This is bad, how long was he in the sun?" Hayden asks us. "About half an hour I think, I found him about ten minutes away from here and he has been unconscious since I found him and I think a few minutes before I found him," I explain to him.

"I have only seen one other Siren who blisters in the sun, he took a little longer nightmares or others to heal from the blisters but he should be okay ," Hayden says, looking at all the blisters Danny has. Jorel puts his hand on Hayden's shoulder. "So Danny will be okay then?" Jorel asks, hope evident in his voice. Hayden smiles and chuckles. "Yes, Danny will be perfectly fine after some rest. I am sure of it," Hayden says. He then goes and makes himself comfortable in the armchair which Danny claims as his favorite chair in the whole house.

Jorel and I make ourselves comfortable by Danny's bedside. This was going to be a long day, I could tell. Jorel will not be moved from Danny's side, he cares about him too much. The others are still asleep and they probably will stay asleep until 7 or 9 if we are lucky. "Are you sure that you don't want to take Danny upstairs so you can both get some decent quality rest?" I ask Jorel. We are both on the floor and I know he should be resting as well. Hayden looks to him.

"Matt is right, you two should go upstairs and rest for now. You'll feel a lot better after a little nap." Hayden says and Jorel can't defy him. Hayden looks at me and I go to pick Danny up and I carry him into his room and lay him down on the bed. His blisters had only just started to fade around the edges. When he wakes up a bit later on during the day I am sure they will have faded a little bit more. Jorel appears and crawls into bed with Danny. "You get some rest too," he tells me with a sleepy smile.

"I will do Jorel, the blisters are already healing up a little bit, he'll be okay," I tell him. He wraps his arm around Danny and pulled him into a still has yet to give us any sign that he is aware of anything going on or if we are hurting him in anyway. Jorel has a big soft spot in his heart for the twenty-one year old so he would hate it if he was put through pain because of a cuddle. If they don't get together at any point within the next two years I am going to put them in a closest 'cause that is how I roll.

There you go guys, part 7 of Demon inside.

I am going to try and get part 8 done soon but I have three one shots which I am going to post within the next two weeks and I can't post on the weekend of the HU show because I won't have time.

Anyway leave your thoughts on this, I wanted to give people more of an insight into what Danny's childhood was like and I wanted him and Jess to become good friends as well.
