Maggie's POV

I didn't know what to think anymore. I wanted to stand by him but I also knew that it wasn't him anymore, obvious to the fact that he had hit her. What if he didn't come back? I'm not sure I could live in a world without Hal Mason in it. Of course I had to before I met him but back then I was only surviving not really living, then he came along and changed that. He couldn't give up on me just like I would never give up on him. We were best friends, lovers and fighters but most importantly we were partners.

I felt so useless just sitting here and thinking about how unfair life was when I knew that Hal was in there somewhere and we were doing nothing to help him, but I didn't know how to. I just wanted to go back, before everything happened before the warehouse before Karen and that kiss, before the bug- wait the kiss! That's it that's how Karen implanted the bug in Hal. I was about to run and tell the others when a voice interrupted.

"Maggie! Maggie h-"

Ben came running up to me where I was sitting on my bed in my lonely room thinking. He was breathing very fast, he must of been running for a while, which could only mean one thing, it was important.

"Ben? What is it? What's happening?" I said as he tried to gain his breath back.

"I've been...looking for you... everywhere, I had to... find Matt and... Lourdes...First." He eventually spit out.

"Why?" I said getting scared.

"Hal's back. He's awake and himself again. Tom, Anne and the captain are with him now I had to find Lourdes to help Anne out and you and Matt so you guys could see him." He said talking normally.

"Then why are we still standing here, let's go." I said rather loudly and then we raced down the hall heading towards the most important person in my life.

Lourdes's POV

After Ben had came and told me I rushed to the room that Hal was moved back to. I first saw Tom, Matt and Capt. Weaver but as I ventured further into the room I saw Anne busying herself over Hal, who looked sad and tired and was strapped back to the bed just in case.

"Anne, what can I do to help?" I asked straight away.

"A second hand over here would great, thanks." I walked over to her and stared to work.

After we had checked him over and patched some of his old wounds up again. We finally sat down and talked to him. He refused to say a word until Maggie and Ben stepped through the door, their eyes venturing for Hal.

"Get out!" Hal randomly yelled.

"What?" Maggie said quietly.

"I don't want you here. Get out right now. I don't want to see you."

"Hal, what do you mean? It's Maggie. Why can't she be here?" Tom said confused, just like the rest of us.

"I don't want her here! Get her out!" Hal shouted at him.

"Lourdes, why don't you take Maggie and Matt to get something to eat and then maybe Hal might want her to come back later." Anne suggested turning to me.

"Sure." I walked over to Maggie and put on arm around her and lead her over to the door, Matt trailing behind us, watching as a silent tear ran down her pale cheek.

Once we had left the room and I had closed the door I turned to Maggie and pulled her into a hug that I'm sure she needed but would never have voiced it. She tried to pull away but I wouldn't let her I wanted to get her some faith to stay strong in these dark times. After a while I felt her rest her head on my shoulder and relax, I stared to rub her back in comfort. When we pulled away she had a small smile on her face and then Matt went up to her and hugged her too.

"Thank you I needed that." She said surprising me.

"It's fine. Maybe Hal just doesn't want you to seen him like this." I said trying to sound hopeful.

"Yeah, maybe." She sighed. "Come on lets go get some food."

We walked down the hall all a little more hope and faithful.

Weaver's POV

"Hal, we need to talk." I said to him.

"I don't want to talk."

"You have to, Hal." Tom said.

"No, I don't want to answer any questions."

"Hal, we need to know what you remember about the past few days." I said to him, trying not to sound forceful.

"The last thing I remember is the warehouse." He mumbles not sounding happy.

"Alright, so you don't remember anything after the warehouse?" I asked.

"Not really, I remember waking up a few times but that's it."

"How are you feeling? Do you feel any different than from normal?" Ben piped in.

"No. I don't remember anything okay? I just want to get some rest."

"You can, later after you answer some more questions I promise." Tom said getting mad.

"Hey, dad?" He said turning to Tom.

"Yes?"

"Where's mum?"Hal said sounding very worried.

"What?" We all stared at him in surprise and watched him concerned and worried. Doesn't he remember what happened to his mother?

"I know this will be hard on her. Is she okay?" She said seriously.

"Hal...um..." Tom stuttered.

"She's fine, in fact she will come and visit you later. Maybe you should get some rest first and we will come back later." Ben said not letting the tears spill from his eyes.

"That sounds like a great idea, Ben. You get some rest Hal and we will see you in a few hours."

"Okay."

We left, shutting the lights off behind us leaving Hal in darkness.

Ben's POV

We walked to the cafeteria where we knew Matt, Maggie and Lourdes were. Once we saw them we went and sat down saying our greetings.

"How is he?" Maggie asked.

"He's okay as to be expected. Isn't saying much we left him to rest for a few hours then we will go in and talk to him again, you can go and see him then too. He also has some problems with his memories." Dad told the three of them.

"What do you mean problems?" Lourdes asked.

"He thinks his mother is here with us." Dad said sounding emotional, which I didn't hear often.

"Maybe we should pray for him." Lourdes suggested.

"That sounds like a great idea." Weaver said.

We all took hold of each other's hands and Lourdes started to speak when we heard several gun shots go off.
