Paul has a dirty obsession for feet! Ha! Ha! That cracked me up when I read it. Thank you so much to all my reviewers! I love you all! Sorry about the last chapter. (chapter 11). It totally got screwed up. I was tired and just decided to write about the first thing that came into my head. Which wasn't actually that good…..lol

I did change it if anyone hasn't noticed. So it's now a completely different chapter. Hope you like it! And here's yet another update! Thanks again! Luv Angel

I had totally forgotten about Felix Diego. I know I shouldn't have, I mean it was a pretty vital thing to remember. You know, that a murdering 19th century Spaniard wanted me dead. But somehow, amongst the whole being sucked into hell thing and nearly being burned at the stake I managed to forget. Ha! Like that was ever going to happen.

No instead he followed us up into the Shadowland so that he could finish me off. Isn't that just dandy?

"Jesse, no offence or anything but I really don't think speaking to him like that in Spanish is going to help the situation much." I whispered calmly.

Not that I actually understood a word that he said or anything. But it was pretty obvious that he wasn't complimenting him on his shoes or something. Jesse threw me an annoyed look. He'd been in a huff with me all day about the not-telling-him-what-happened-in-hell thing. But come on! He already wanted to rip Paul's head off. I wasn't about to give him another reason to do it.

"All I mean is there's got to be another way to get him to let us through. I mean he used to be your friend right?"

"He was never a friend of mine." he replied flatly.

"Ok fine. So much for that idea. We just need a diversion so that he's distracted long enough to let us through. That is the door back to the present right?"

"Yes. We have checked every other. This is the only one left now." I nodded slowly. How to distract him. I guess I could get Jesse and Paul to beat him up or something. On second thoughts……Paul.

He'd been standing beside me looking distant the whole time. I was beginning to think nothing ever affected him. But noticing my gaze on him he seemed to come back to life.

"What?" he asked moodily. God, it's like working with two school boys sometimes.

"When you were trying to exorcise Jesse you talked to Maria and Diego right?" I asked hurriedly. I had a feeling I was babbling, but I didn't really care.

"Yes, kind of. I tried to keep my distance though. They were just business acquaintances." He answered calmly. I felt like hitting him then. I really did. I mean, he was such a complete jerk for saying that. And in front of Jesse as well!

"Good. Then you're in charge of the diversion while I casually walk past and open the door." I smiled. Both him and Jesse looked down at me sceptically.

"You really expect him to let you through that easily?" Paul asked tonelessly. I rolled my eyes.

"Of course not. But at least this way I might get to kick his ass as well." I said with a grin.

Paul continued to look sceptical, but at least pretended to go along with the plan. He walked forwards hesitantly and gave me a half confused glance.

"Um, hey there. How've you been for the past century? Lots of murdering?"

I stared at him in horror. He looked like he was half laughing and I for one knew I was going to shut him up myself in a minute.

"Where is the girl?" Diego drawled. He didn't seem to be all that interested in Paul's feeble attempts at humour.

"Susannah….." Jesse whispered from behind me. I hadn't even noticed him following me if truth be told. But whatever. He grabbed my hand and dragged me behind him.

"Jesse. What are you doing?"

"Saving you. Again." And with that a small dagger flew through the air, right past my left ear. If I'd stayed where I was then I'd of been pretty dead.

Jesse turned around to face me as stared at Felix in horror.

"Okay, that was not good." I told him bleakly. He nodded towards the door before pulling me towards him. Okay, so I half expected him to kiss me. So what? It turned out he was just making sure the others didn't hear what he was saying.

"When I say go, run to the door. Don't look back, just get yourself to safety."

"No way Jesse. I am not leaving you here to fight Felix." I replied stubbornly.

"You have to. You have no other choice."

And even though I knew he was right I still refused to budge. How could he expect me to just leave him like that?

"Fine. But I'll hold the door open. Just make sure you get through."

"I will try." He said, kissing me softly on the head. And then the plan went into action.

"Go!" he yelled before lunging at Diego. I only hesitated for a moment before running as fast as I could to slam open the door. This time however I was ready for the whirlwind force that was trying to drag me inside. I held on with all my might until I was literally in agony.

"JESSE!!!" I yelled. He looked up from where he was bloodying up Diego, and with one last angry glance at him, ran towards me.

He grabbed my hand just as I let go, sending us tumbling back to Earth.

I opened my eyes dazedly, blinking in the strong lights. Headache. I hated headaches.

"Are you okay?" Jesse panted from beside me. That's when I realised something.

"Jesse you're breathing."
