Flashback…

Jason sighed. His brother was right, as usual. He took a deep breath and started to explain.

End Flashback

"Well it started a few weeks ago just before the cookout, I started having pains around my birthmark…"

He lifted up his sleeve to show the place where he held his arm, a curious mark was there. It looked like the Amulet of the Warriors but had strange symbols all the around it.

Jack snorted. "Birthmark, yeah right, how comes none of us have it."

"Shut up, Jack, Jason keep going." Tyler snapped.

"T-then, I started going to Meridian in my dreams; always running through the cobbled streets, after that my body was hurting at night, then there was this…this voice that always asked if I was…was broken, it tortured me, every… every single night." Jason looked like a lost little boy. In Cornelia's eyes he looked very cute.

"Dude, this is way serious." Ryan said shaking his head.

"Maybe Uncle Fred knows what's up." Ben said looking at Tyler.

Tyler sighed. "It's a no go, Fred's in Cairo visiting Aunt Bess and her excavation."

"My Grandma could know!" Hay Lin said just before a nurse came in holding two huge shopping bags.

"Oh, Jason, you're awake. These are for you." She dumped the carrier bags on his bed.

Jason took one look inside and groaned. Everyone else looked in them. They where filled with pink get well soon cards.

Ben burst out laughing. "HA HA! I can't believe it! You're in a coma and you're still the school heart throb!"

"Ben shut up, or get lost." Jason bluntly said.

"Shutting up." Ben said.

"I'll just call your mum and you can go home, all right?" The nurse smiled brightly and left.

"Umm, meet us tomorrow at The Silver Dragon at 4 and we'll see what Grandma has to say." Hay Lin said.

"We should be getting home too, girls." Will said, the other girls nodded. "Well see ya guys." The girls left the ward, well, Cornelia left reluctantly.

"Well, Jason, you've been a git, why didn't you tell us before?" Tyler looked at Jason as if he had been a very naughty boy.

"Well, you'd worry guys…"

"Jason, you doofus, we're your brothers, we're supposed to worry." Jack said.

Ryan added an after thought "It's like our job."

Jason sighed for the fifth time. "Thanks guys, for being there for me even when I was acting like a jerk."

At the Allens...

"Jason, honey, are you sure you are ok? You still look peaky. I think you should stay home today darling." Mrs Allen sat on the edge of Jason's bed, while he vainly fixed his hair in the mirror.

What, and miss finding out whats wrong with me? Fat chance. Jason thought.

"Nah, it's ok mom, I'm fine... really." Jason added after looking at his mother's face.

"Hon, are you absolutely sure?" Mrs Allen said worriedly.

"I'm always sure mom." He flashed his mother one of his famous smiles. Jason checked the clock.

"HEY, JASON! HURRY UP! I GOT OLD MAN COLLINS TODAY AND I'M DEAD IF I'M LATE AGAIN!" Ben's distict voice was heard.

"Again?" Mrs Allen's eyes narrowed.

Jason grabbed his bag, kissed his mother's cheek and flew down the stairs to meet his brothers.

"Your gonna get it today, Benny boy." Jason grinned and put on a voice uncannily like his mothers. "BENJAMIN ALLEN! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING MISSING SCHOOL?"

All the boys except Ben laughed. "Aww crud."

"C'mon, guys, let's go." Tyler said and the boy's left.

School...

The boys walked through the school gate.

Jack held up five fingers. "5, 4, 3, 2, 1."

"JASON!"

And cue the 'Jason fan club'.

"Jason, are you all right?"

"We were all so worried."

"Did you get my card?"

The other side of school...

Cornelia's narrowed. She saw the 'Jason fan club' swarming around him like bees. Cornelia had become execeedingly jealous of any girl that even talked to him. Excluding her friends of course. Will and Matt had broke up because he heard her saying she had a crush on Jack. Irma had Ben. Taranee had an immense crush on Ryan. Hay Lin was still with Eric. Her friends would never take Jason away from her. They didn't even know she liked him.

"So as I was saying, Matt shouldn't have eavsdropped in the first place." Will said. She apparently couldn't care less that Matt dumped her.

The girls where nearing school. Suddenly Will turned around. "Cornelia, could I talk to you in private." Will saw the other girls looking at her. "It's about, you-know-who." The rest of the girls walked into the school.

"So, what's wrong?" Cornelia asked.

"Cornelia... do you have a crush on Jason?" Will asked unexpectedly.

Cornelia looked shocked. How did she know? Taranee's the one who reads minds.

"Look, Cornelia, you've been looking at him when you think we don't notice, you've been thinking about him for some time. Why didn't you tell us?" Will said. "Taranee read your mind when we were at the hospital. I can't believe you wouldn't even tell me, your best friend!"

"I thought you'd laugh at me..."

"Cornelia, we're your friends, we don't laugh at you. C'mon lets go." The two friends walked to class.

After school...

The boys stood outside The Silver Dragon.

Jack let out a low whistle. "Sweet."

Hay Lin spotted the guys out the window. She opened the door. "Hey! Your late, we've waiting for ages!"

Taranee laughed. "Yeah, if you can call 5 minutes, ages."

"I'll just call my Grandma." 5 Minutes later she appeared with the wizened old lady.

"Ahhh, Jason, my grand-daugther says you have a mark, which is giving you trouble, no? Show me it." Yan Lin and Jason sat down and Jason showed her his mark.

Almost immedietly, she clapped a hand to her mouth. "I never thought... a human? An object or an animal, but never...never..."

Jason looked up worriedly. "Mrs Lin, what's wrong with me?"

The old lady looked at him with concern. "My dear boy, you are in grave danger."
