"Ah great, what'd that kid do to me?" Xander stared at the cell walls. For the first time in a long time he felt very cold, endlessly cold. The look she had given him when she said Dakota's name; a look of pain, sorrow, anger, hate.
/Stupid, stupid, stupid, he thought. I new I should never look into a person's face. Her eyes. So angry. Like mine./
Then he, knew where the cold came from; not from the room, or the window, but from her eyes. All their venom and ice had seeped into him when they pinned him in the dance room.
"Stupid child," he said aloud. "What is her connection to Stevens?"
He tapped his foot on the ground. "Stevens...Stevens...I hate Stevens. Why did I let him get to me? What's the connection between him and..." something hit him. Those eyes... Not the same color but... the same eyes. Julia had brown eyes.
He stood up.
"Dakota has a kid."
