I left the building and ran across campus to the parking lot. Reid and Tyler were already there.

"Where have you come from?"

"No where," I said casually. "Come on lets go,"

I got into Tylers hummer and we drove in silence to Gormens.

I got out Pouges bike was there and he was waiting with it.

"Hey Pouge what's up?"

"Me and Caleb just broke into the administrations office,"

"WHAT!" For once Carlees wild and bizarre accusations were correct.

"Come on I'll tell you more inside," I followed my brother inside and we went downstairs into the basement.

I sat down next on the seat in between Pouge and Reid.

"Recently Caleb and I have seen a darkling, the same darkling. It's in the form of the kid who died at the Dells. Caleb has seen it twice I only saw it once. In the pool today Caleb went head first into the wall because he swore he saw Chases eyes turn black. So we went to do some background checking and it turns out his real name is Goodwin pope,"

That name soundly vaguely familiar.

"Goody Goodwin pope?"

He nodded "Chase was adopted and on his eighteenth birthday his adoptive parents died in a car crash," I sat in silence and looked at Tyler and Reid.

I heard Caleb enter and start walking down the stairs and so I stood and watched him.

"I've told them everything. About the darkling what we found in Chases file,"

Caleb wiped his hand down his face and looked over to the book of damnation. The book left the shelf and flew over to the center of the altar. I sat down. A ring of fire shot up around the book and it opened.

"It's a list of names. The charges on John Putnam and his family during the war. Pope was one of them. Goody Pope. Widow of Jacob, mother of Hagen,"

"So what?"

"So she claims that John Putnam came to her as an incubus in her dreams. After she was widowed. The book also records births and deaths during the damnation. Goody Popes husband Jacob died June 4th 1692 her son Hagen was born April 11th 1693. That's ten months and twenty four days later," I swallowed.

The book fell.

"If what you're saying is true and Hagen Pope is the bastard son of John Putnam then the fifth in the covenant didn't end in Salem,"

"And Chase is one of us,"

"That's crazy. He can't be,"

I rested my head in my hands. My phone started vibrating but I wouldn't answer it.

"The night after the party at the Dells someone was using. The power was strong enough to wake me. The next night it happened again,"

"I felt it both times,"

"Yeah I felt it then,"

"See I told you. I felt it too,"

"When you said it wasn't you were you lying?"

"No,"

"You swear,"

"I swear,"

"Then it was him,"

Calebs phone started ringing. He took it out of his inside pocket.

"Hey could I call you," he paused.

"Wait, wait, wait. What?" I looked up; it had to have been Sarah.

"Ok listen I want you to go back to your dorm and wait for me there. I'll see you soon ok?"

"Was that Sarah?" He looked to me.

"You knew?"

I nodded.

"Knew what?" asked Pouge.

"He's put a spell on Kate,"

"What are you talking about? What kind of spell?"

"Creation...spiders,"

"They're taking her to a hospital in Gloucester."

Pouge had stood up and was backing away to the stairs.

"Wait don't do anything till we know,"

"You're talking about Kate!"

"Pouge," I screamed. He had taken off up the stairs and I went to go after him.

"Araynia no," I went to keep moving but I felt I couldn't. Caleb was using on me.

"Caleb he is my brother I won't let him kill himself over her. Tyler your keys please?" I could hear his bike out the front. Ty threw me his keys.

"Caleb let go!" I yelled at him and it felt like a barrier had been shattered. I ran while Caleb was down, up the stairs and out the front getting into the hummer I threw it into reverse and sped off after my brother. He'd be going to Gloucester and so that was the way I headed.

I was doing 120 but I didn't care, I needed to get to him before he did something stupid and ran into the vengeful fifth son.

I turned a corner. My phone was ringing it was Reid I used to answer and put it on loudspeaker.

"What?"

"Where are you?"

"I'm tracking Pouge on the freeway between there and Gloucester,"

"Be careful Rayne,"

"I will," I hung up.

They wouldn't be too far behind me. I rounded another corner and saw a figure standing in the middle of the road up further was Pouges bike.

"No!"

I screeched the brakes and got out of the car. I was going to kill Chase but he disappeared.

"Pouge," I was running towards him, he was lying on the road like a broken doll. I knelt down and felt for a pulse and checked his breathing. Everything was ok. His left arm was lodged at a painful looking angle and I didn't know what to do. I pulled out my mobile. 911.

When the operator answered I was in tears. "Please I need an ambulance on The Malvern freeway just past route 345. My brother has been in an accident on his motorcycle. He is loosing a lot of blood but he has a pulse and is breathing. Hurry,"

"Someone will be there shortly,"

I heard another car pull up behind us.

"Araynia," I turned and looked back my school skirt was covered in Pouges blood as well as my hands.

"I've called an ambulance they should be here soon but look at all the blood," Tyler pulled me back and into his arms I turned around and cried into his shoulder. Reid came up and placed a comforting hand on my back, he soothingly rubbed it.

I stuttered over my breath.

"I can't lose him, I can't lose him,"

"It's ok you won't lose him,"

Caleb walked over.

"Are you alright?"

I turned around and nodded staring at Pouges limp body.

"It's all he..his bloo...d. Cha...Chase was here when I pul...pulled up but when I went to conf..front him he took off," I closed my eyes.

"I'm go...oing to kill him,"

I could hear the ambulance in the background. They pulled around the corner and Caleb waved them down.

Two men got out.

Caleb told them what had happened and they started working on him, loading him onto the gurney.

"Look I have to go back and see Sarah. If Chase took off there is a chance he has gone back there. Tyler Reid go to the Hospital with him," They nodded and he took off towards his car.

One of the attendants came over to us.

"You his sister?"

I nodded.

"Want to ride with him,"

"Ye...yes please," I walked forward to the back of the ambulance.

"One of you can come with her," Reid and Tyler started talking.

"I'll come," Reid got into the back with me; we were sitting next to each other.

"It's ok Pouge, you'll be alright," I kept whispering over and over again.

"He will be alright," I looked to Reid and smiled.

"Why did you come in here with me?"

"Ty didn't want me driving his car unsupervised. He said he'd rather follow us,"

I laughed quietly.

Reid wiped away a tear. "Come on Gremlin don't cry. He is your brother remember, just like you he wont give up on us,"

I nodded vigorously and stared at my weak-looking brother.

We had gotten to the hospital and they rushed him into the operations ward to fix his arm and stop the bleeding. I walked with him all the way to the doors and then due to regulations I had to stop.

I just stood there looking after the gurney. Then I collapsed into a fit of tears.

Reid grabbed me and walked me over to a chair. I sat down. My head was in my hands tears freely flowing out of my eyes. Tyler was with us now.

They were on either side of me Tyler pulled me in for another hug and I looked over to Reid he was sitting with his like me with his head in his hands.

"I need to call mum," I said after a while of waiting.

Tyler nodded and let go. I took my phone out of my pocket and pressed speed dial 3. IT was ringing.

"Hello,"

"Mum," my voice was still breaking.

"Araynia are you crying? Why are you crying? What's happened?"

I couldn't do it I broke down in tears again and passed the phone over to Tyler.

"Mrs. Parry Pouge has been in an accident. We need you to call the others, the fifth bloodline didn't end in Salem and he is after us,"

There was a paused.

"Don't worry Reid and I are looking after her,"

"Bye," He hung up.

"There we go, she knows. She said she'll be up as soon as she can," I nodded.

The doctor came out of the doors.

"You can see him now; he is in an induced coma. We don't want to cause his brain anymore stress," I sniffed and got up following the doctor to his room. He looked utterly hopeless there in the bed the tubes running in and out of him.

Pouge is my older brother and he was always there to protect me and yet when it mattered most I couldn't protect him.
