Laurel came to as Meland was with her in an ambulance as she woke up slowly. "What… what happened?"

"Some wolves attacked you." Meland explained.

Laurel suddenly remembered. "Aracely…"

"Laurel, take it easy." Meland held her down. "Layton's looking for her. You're severely injured and you're lucky we found you this soon. A few moments later and you would've bled to death."

"Aracely, someone's after her, Meland." Laurel said, worried about her friend. "They can hurt her."

"Don't worry, Layton and the police are…"

"No, you don't understand, they're not normal people!" Laurel snapped as she got up.

"Laurel, you can barely…"

"I won't let that stop me, Layton!" Laurel snapped as she got up and noticed that her clothes were ripped to shreds. She never had a family… or a sister… but right now, Aracely was the close thing to a sister she had…

"Take this." Layton handed her a spare jacket and jeans. "You wouldn't want to go outside dressed like a half-naked mummy."

Laurel blushed in embarrassment as she put on the spare clothes.

Elsewhere in Houston

Aracely kept on running down a street before a man in wolf form grabbed her by her throat as he and the woman in purple suit approached her.

"There's nowhere you can run where we won't find you." The wolf growled as Aracely choked.

"Careful, don't let her put you under her spell again." The woman warned.

"Be… scared…" Aracely choked out.

"I don't think so." The wolf knocked her on the ground hard. "No mind games, little girl."

"The Fire Serpent said that she doesn't remember." The woman pointed out. "Some kind of amnesia."

"Ridiculous, it's an act. You know what she can do." The wolf said.

"I don't think it's an act." The woman pointed out. "He said he wanted her dead or alive?"

"Dead." The wolf said instantly.

"What do you want from me? Who are you?" Aracely demanded.

"The better question is, who are you, little girl? Maria Aracely Penalba de Las Haras. Hutzilopotchili reincarnate." The woman laughed. "You have no idea what kind of person you are, do you?"

"Enough games, we have our orders. She's the most dangerous of all of them. Kill her." The wolf snapped.

"We could use her. With the power she wields, we can control…"

"No. Do you truly want to disobey…"

Suddenly, some men with guns, knives and baseball bats showed up, shooting at the wolf.

"Hey, you mutts. You're in the Third Ward, trespassing on the Sharks' turf." One of the gangsters said. "Guys, I want their hides for my wall."

"The girl led us here on purpose!" The woman realized as Aracely ran to hide in a dumpster as she got a flashback. The heat in the container… other people dying… the sweat on her skin… calling out to her parents and then another voice…

"You can survive this. And then you will make the world bleed."

"Aracely!" Laurel yelled as she was running down the street with Layton's jacket on and ripped pants, ignoring the pain she was in. "Aracely!"

As they killed the gangsters, the two people were looking for Aracely in an alley as they found her but suddenly, Aracely's eyes glowed blue as the two people screamed in pain.

Laurel and Layton rushed into the alley as they heard the screams and saw Aracely curled to a ball.

"Aracely?" Laurel asked as Aracely's eyes were blue before they turned normal as she gasped in panic and Laurel held her shoulders. "Hey, hey, it's OK."

"Laurel… I…" Aracely breathed out.

"What happened here?" Laurel asked. "Where are they?"

"I…" Aracely trailed off. "I don't know. I remember hiding in the container and then… it's all blur."

Laurel narrowed her eyes. Obviously, there was more to the girl than it seemed… but how could she ever find out who she was? One thing was for sure, it was her responsibility now to protect her.

Later, Four Seasons Hotel

"Is she safe?" Layton asked as Laurel nodded.

"And sleeping." Laurel said. "Layton, there's obviously something wrong with her, you know that."

Layton reluctantly nodded. "Yeah… but what are we supposed to do?"

"I don't know." Laurel admitted before holding his hand. "Thank you."

"For what?"

"You've saved my life many times and been there for me, when I was struggling." Laurel said. "I… I don't know if I would have gotten through this without you. And I don't know how can I ever…"

"We're friends, Laurel. You help me, I help you. There's nothing more to it." Layton promised.

"What if I want more?" Laurel asked.

"Laurel. I…"

Suddenly, Laurel kissed Layton and he was caught off-guard for a moment but after a few moments, he gave in as he took off her shirt as they laid down on the couch, giving into each other.

Elsewhere

"She's awoken. Hutzilopochtli's power rises. I can feel it." An elderly man said as the woman in suit approached him.

"Sir, I can still…"

"No." The man grabbed her throat and snapped her neck as some men, one of them in water form, some of them with weapons, such as swords and guns and another one in smoke form appeared in his office. "I will be ready for the girl, the Siren, all of them."
