She wasn't sure if it was working all that well cause she still felt very much freaked out. Despite that, she repeated it over and over as she tried to figure out something. She looked back at the screen which now showed Adam in his car. He didn't look so good still, he had his head in his arms on the steering wheel. And it was hard to tell if he was crying or not cause of the downpour around him. She wanted nothing more than to be there and comfort him. By force of habit she reached into her purse and grabbed her phone.

Wait. Her phone! Maybe she can try and contact Adam. Yes, what a brilliant idea and if this worked then Adam can use his powers to get here via her phone. She felt a surge of hope wash through her body. What a clever idea, how did she not realized this sooner. Maybe it was for the best in highsight cause otherwise Cupun might've found out and poofed it away or useless in some cruel fashion.

With that, she quickly dialed his number and looked at the screen after she hit send. After an agonizing few seconds which felt like an eternity, Adam noticed his phone and picked it up. Her hope level was higher than before that things would be alright at the end. Gotta be optimistic in a situation like this.

It made her current world less bleak when she heard Adam's voice that came from the other end.

"Emily?! Emily is it really you?! Please tell me you and Rhea are alright? I'm scared Em, I'm feeling pretty scared right now. People are acting like they never met either one of you! It doesn't make any sense-"

"Adam! Oh my god, I'm so happy to hear your voice right now! Listen it's gonna be alright...it's gonna be alright, everything will be fine...I hope," She began before she took a quick calming breath, "Me and Rhea were kidnapped by this guy name Cupun to this mansion of his and he apparently got magic powers like you do. That's how he was able to change reality back on Earth. Please tell me you can get yourself over here? I know you probably can but I'm slightly more than freaking out right now."

"I can just point the phone away from you."

"Sure thing."

She pointed the screen away as she took a glance at the tv. She watched Adam look at the screen of his phone before he snapped his fingers. A few seconds later she felt her phone warm up lightly with the energy of magic. Blue light emitted from the screen, followed by Adam who materialized a couple of feet away.

Upon seeing Emily there seemed to be a switch in terms of his mood. His bubbly, slightly goofy smile stretched across his face and the world seemed to brighten up if only temporary. It was as if Adam was reunited with a long lost lover. Actually, make that both of them. Emily felt overjoyed to see him right in front of her, purple suit and all, instead of on the tv.

"Emily!"

Adam rushed at her with his arms held open and swung her up around in a big bear hug. He was so happy, no wrong word, ecstatic very ecstatic. So much so that he didn't realize he planted one on her lips in a love-induced haze after he put Emily back down on her feet. One arm was around her waist and the other hand on the base of her neck.

Emily felt herself blush wildly at the unexpected kiss. Did the temperature rise up? The warm and fuzzy emotions overtook her and shorted her brain out. This is what she wanted, what her heart desired. No denying or use trying to forget the truth. Damn it Adam had to go and ruin her long self held reasonable belief that he had any feelings for her. She wrapped her arms around his neck and melted into the kiss. Nothing else mattered except her, Adam and a passionate kiss.

And a few seconds later it ended. A good part of Emily was disappointed that it was over. Adam looked at her embarrassed and very, very apologetic. His very red cheeks can attest to that. Like if he was a kid who just got caught in a lie by his parents.

"Oh my god Emily I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! I shouldn't kiss you without asking first,...I don't know what I was thinking except I'm just very happy to see you and I thought I was never gonna see you guys again!"

Emily grasped his hands into her and gave him a warm, sweet smile. Might as well be out with it since was clear they were on the same page. Or at least as far as her observational skills can tell her. No more running away from the truth of the matter. She was in love with Adam.

"Adam it's ok! It's alright. I umm….I, I liked it, I enjoyed it...a lot," Emily lightly chuckled before faded off into the night.

She felt like some giddy lovesick character in some cheesy 90s romance movie.

Adam looked at her dumbfounded, his mind was blank except for the parts that processed this game-changing new information. And unlike any other misconceptions he had that Emily ruined for him in the past (read: the time Emily ruined his glasses), this time he was very happy to be proven wrong.

"Really?" Adam replied and a soft but giddy laugh escaped his throat, "Me too!"

Emily smiled, but quickly came out of the love hazed fog.

"We should probably talk more about that later. We need to rescue your sister and stop that...Cubone guy."

"Oh right, yeah. Umm…." Adam looked around, he wasn't actually sure what to do first.

He looked at a random spot before he turned back to Emily awkwardly and admitted, "This is all new to me Em, this is the first time I'm hearing of someone else with the same magic as me. I don't have any knowledge on what to do," Adam was noticeably freaked out and unsure of what to expect.

Except a crazy guy with magic who got his sister, that he knew so far. He better not hurt her.

"Well, I'm in the same boat as you. Let's do what I do and take it bit by bit. Preferably fast so we can save Rhea."

"Of course. What exactly happened after you two were kidnapped?" Adam asked. Research was always good as ever to start off with.

"He was pretty quick to tell us about his 'amazing diabolic plan'," Emily rolled her eyes for emphasis before she apologized, "I only caught the part where he erased me and Rhea from existence on Earth I was too busy watching you on the tv to hear him monologuing to Rhea."

"Well that ain't a problem, we can still find out the rest, " Adam assured her confidently.

He gently held her close and moved them back away a few steps before he snapped his fingers. The time rewinded enough to just after Emily ran into the living room. Currently, it was frozen so Adam can get to a relevant starting point.

"Wait won't they hear or see us?"

"Not to worry Em, they can't hear or see us. It's like that night at the restaurant when I did one of my older episodes!"

Oh right damn it. She had forgotten about the time Adam ruined her girls night out. Funny that seemed a lifetime ago when Hayley was alive and she didn't know Adam as well as in the present day. Back when she didn't realize the man she wanted to spend the rest of her life with was actually the one next to her.

Emily watched the scene play out, she wanted to catch all the important details. She felt bad that she just wasn't able to summarize it for Adam. Plus this way he can also see just what Cupun looked like, so now he would have a visual on who to look for. So that part was good at least. Still she couldn't help the feeling if only cause she didn't pay attention the first time around.

After it ended she looked up at Adam. He had an indiscernible blank look on his face for a few seconds, she couldn't make out what he might be thinking. It was a lot to take it in so it's possible he was overwhelmed by the information. She wanted to ask if he wanted to sit down for a minute, it would do both of them good actually, but they were on precious time.

To be frank, Adam didn't know where exactly to start in response to that. So he was the reason behind him being completely in the dark about his magic? He decided not to dwell on that just yet. Plus there was the whole matter of Cupun teleported himself with Rhea.

After an anxious few seconds, Adam broke the silence with a nervous chuckle. His face turned an unusually bright but clearly naive expression. It was also evidence of how much things had changed that she found that aspect of him hadn't annoyed her as it might've in the past.

"You know maybe if I talk to him very nicely about this, we can avoid any actual violence. I do know how to de-escalate a situation like this."

"I really don't think that's gonna work," Emily gave him an honest look before he was able to spout any facts. She had a bad feeling about this, "We're talking about an insane jilted immortal magical dude here."

"Maybe he'll still be reasonable?" Another nervous chuckle.

A few seconds of silence passed, it was obvious Emily didn't go for his suggestions. Just gave him a look. Adam conceded her point with a sigh of resignation. This wasn't going to be any Kumbaya, "let's talk away our differences and be friends" idealist type shit. If only, but they weren't in a perfect world.

"Right," Adam said before he took a calm breath.
