The best that the Ozu-family could do was allow Sutokeru to lie down on the bed he's been sleeping on the past few months. With him lying there, there was nowhere else that Ginny wanted to go to. It was even up to the Magirangers to clean her, so her hair didn't look as white as it did, nor did her skin look that green anymore. She looked considerably different that time, then she did only moments ago.
"Now I understand what he sees in her." Kai remarked, as he saw her at Sutokeru's bedside.
Urara slapped him in the back of his head: "Kai, you've already got a girlfriend!"
Suddenly, Tsubasa came out of his room: "I just examined the food."
"What food?" Kai wondered.
"That which your friend was eating." Tsubasa explained, "Let's got back to the secret room."
In that room, Tsubasa explained: "In their food, I found some kind of hypnosis potion. It saw to it that the girls would think exactly what Zedd wanted them to think."
"Why would he want to do that?" Makito wondered.
"I'm not sure." Tsubasa answered, "It looked as though he wanted them to think we're the enemy."
"Is that the same thing that he used on Ginny?" Houka asked.
"I don't think so." Tsubasa replied, "Sutokeru did say that what Zedd did to her was something he taught him. I don't think he could teach him anything that involves potions."
"But why use potions on those two, but something else on the other?" Hikaru wondered.
"Because potions only work for as long as it's in the body." Isamu answered, "He only influenced them temporarily."
"So, he wanted them to think that we were the enemy..." Urara then realized, "... and through them convince Ginny of the same thing."
"Of course!" Hikaru had it figured out, "It's not enough to use a spell on someone, he had to show her something that would make it easier to convince her."
"Unforgivable!" Houka then shouted, "Using his own love against him!"
"Not anymore, I'm afraid." Tsubasa said, "Now that Zedd is gone."
"So there's no reason for Sutokeru to stay anymore." Kai then realized.
Again, someone slapped him on the back of his head, namely Houka.
"I'm not so sure." Isamu disagreed.
"Why?" Miyuki asked him, "You still think Sutokeru should have died along with Zedd?"
"Yes, didn't you say that?" Makito remembered, "One good, one evil. And now the evil is gone..."
"That's not the only thing that worries me." Isamu interrupted, "Zedd could've gone anywhere. As Garth, he has no memory to Japan. So why would he want to come here? Of all places?"
"Didn't Sutokeru hate it here?" Houka remembered, "With all the bad memories from that orphanage? What better place for Zedd to make him suffer? Even more unforgivable."
"I hope you're right." Isamu sighed.
Meanwhile, Rin arrived in the same room as Ginny and Sutokeru. Ginny sensed her presence, which spooked her at first, until she realized who it was.
"I'm sorry." she said, "After having spent all that time in that dungeon..."
"You don't have to explain." Rin interrupted, "I understand."
She sat herself down, when suddenly Ginny asked her: "Where have you been, by the way?"
Rin smiled, after which she answered: "I've asked Nai and Mae what happened here. They told me Matt knew that Mason had to pretend that he betrayed Zedd, but also knew that he didn't feel right about that. So along with the vampires, he planned a little set-up, which would allow them to put a tracking spell on Mason, which they could use to find Matt and him, so..."
"That sounds risky." Ginny remarked.
"If we put the spell on Matt, it would have been." Rin explained, "But if it's put on one of his henchmen, which he wouldn't expect, there's no real danger."
Ginny then turned to back to Sutokeru: "He does have his way with people."
"He always was an outsider." Rin told her, "Much like his father was, or all the necromancers before him. It taught him to show respect for those that others would despise."
"I know." Ginny replied.
"You really care about him a lot, don't you!?" Rin finally asked, "You should know that not many of his predecessors had long-lasting relationships."
"I don't care!" Ginny exclaimed, "Besides, who are you to tell me that? You're his mother, but you didn't stay with him either!"
At that moment, Rin wasn't sure whether she should be smiling, or burst into anger.
What neither one of them knew was that Sutokeru could not hear them. Although his body was in the room, his mind was somewhere else. When Sutokeru opened his eyes there, he didn't know where he was either. All he saw were the colors red, black, white and green. The same colors that Zedd's sphere (the same one he used on Ginny) bore. Except for one tiny difference, as this time new colors were introduced here. The colors blue (like Byer's jumpsuit) and chalk-white (like his face), brown (like Knitterface's skin) and darker hues of green(like Mason's clothes), white (like his mask) and grey (like his eyes). All these colors came together, somehow shaping what looked like Zedd's face, that couldn't stop laughing. Sutokeru tried to use his magic, only to realize he doesn't have his Magi-phone here, or anything remotely like a wand.
THE END
... or not?
