Royalphoenix: Hey everyone. This is just a short chapter. Anyways enjoy.

Hours later Phoenix awoke. She saw her friends all standing around her. Tala was in another bed beside her.

"What happened?" asked Phoenix weakly.

"We were in a fight," said Tala, "You were also under Voltaire's control.

"What!" exclaimed Phoenix as she bolted up in bed. However she got a headache by doing so.

"Please lie down and rest, Phoenix," said a nurse. Phoenix recognised the nurse.

"Rebecca. Why am I here?" asked Phoenix to the nurse, "And what about Tala?"

"You had an energy drain and Tala received a couple of fractured ribs," said Rebecca. Phoenix laid back down on the bed. What Tala had said was sinking in. She felt remorseful that she had fought for Voltaire and had hurt her friends in the process.

Phoenix was allowed to go home the next day. Tala complained until Rebecca allowed him to go home only if he agreed that he wouldn't do anything except rest.

Phoenix became more distant and kept to herself over the weeks. Kai noticed this.

"What's wrong? You seem more distant and you hardly talk to me anymore," asked Kai one day. Phoenix didn't say anything and walked away.

The 4 couples and Tala kept meeting once a week.

"I think there is something wrong with Phoenix. She is becoming more and more distant towards people, she doesn't come to bed at night and I have even found her crying," said Kai to the others when Phoenix got up and went for a walk.

"I agree," said Tala, "She is not herself."

"Do you think it could have something to do with Voltaire and Boris?" asked Max.

"I think so. I tried to ask her what's wrong but she walked away from me," said Kai.

"That is defiantly not like her," said Mirra.

"Yeah normally she tells us what's wrong," said Ash.

"Don't you mean that she normally yells the problem at me when we get in a fight," said Tori.

"That's beside the point," said Mirra.

"Just keep an eye on her. She probably just feels guilty about what has happened," said Ash, "That goes for you too, Tala." Both Tala and Kai agreed.
