None of you had any ideas! Do you even read my author's notes? I had a fic contest at the bottom of one of my other chapters, but if did you read it? No! Only like two of you took notice of it. But I feel it's my duty to right another chapter so…

"Nellie! Nellie, please just stay awake!" Phoenix was panicking. Nellie had been shot and the Vespers had supplied them with basic medical supplies but none of them knew how to do this sort of thing. None of the people who had tried could get a good enough grip.
"Let me try." Phoenix was startled to hear the Starling talk. Ted was blind so how could he do this?
"But you're blind."
"So? I can still do it."
"Fine, go ahead."

Dan was confused. He had started to not hate Natalie, then maybe like her a little bit, but when he found out she was amazing at video games?
Dan was falling head over heels. You know, if Ninja lords feel head over heels.

But why the hell did the timing have to be so inconvenient?
His sister was kidnapped, Natalie's brother was gone, Elizabeth had left, Sinead and Hamilton were being all coupley, Ned was over working himself, and Jonah was just moping around since Elizabeth left.
Dan thought things couldn't get worse. Until he got the photo from the vespers.

Ted gripped the tweezer thingys and tried one more time. He couldn't see but he could feel the bullet and unfortunately he could hear Nellie screaming several interesting cuss words in Spanish.
Fiske had given up on trying to cover Phoenix's ears and Reagan had simply turned him away from the bed that Nellie was lying on and was trying to distract him.
"Its okay, Phoenix. Just focus on something else."
"Like what?"
"I don't know; think about Jonah, you two are close right?"
"Kinda."
"What do you mean kinda?"
"Well, Jonah and I get along but well…I hate rap."
"Really?"
"HIJO DE PUTA!"
"Nellie, calm down, I just got the bullet out."
"CALLATE EL OSICO GORDOTA!"
"And done. Take this, it will make you sleep and lessen the pain.
"Is Nellie gonna be okay?"
"Yeah, Phoenix, she'll be alright."

"Jonah."
"Mmhm."
"Jonah?"
"Mmfmmhm."
"Jonah, you can't just stay in your room with your face buried in your pillow."
"Mfmmphm."
"No you can't."
"Mfmmphm."
"No you can't."
"Mfmmphm."
"Fine, but you're gonna go hungry eventually."
"Mfmmmphmmn."
"No, it is not scientifically possible to survive on memories. I'm going now."
"Mphy."

Nellie was having a weird dream. It was probably because of that purple pill that Ted had given her but it was just so weird.
She was a black unicorn with striped hair and she was trying to save two little unicorns, one carrying a book and one dressed as a ninja. But then a ginger unicorn came and accidently tripped the unicorns and Nellie's unicorn ate the ginger unicorn.
Nellie decided to never take strange pills from blind guys ever again.

"Guys!"
"Dan, what is it?"
"The Vespers shot Nellie."
The Cahills gathered around the phone and looked at the picture. It showed a very bloody Nellie clutching her shoulder and the Cahills around her looking panicked. Dan looked shaken and Natalie did something very un-Kabra like. She hugged him.
Even that only helped a little bit. Well, maybe more than a little.

Jonah had moved on from moping in his room to moping in Elizabeth's room. He was lying on her bed and pouting when he felt something under his head vibrate.
He reached inside her pillow case and pulled out a phone that looked exactly like the one the Vespers had given the Cahills. He read the following message:
You think running will help? All you had to do was kill Jonah Wizard and you would have been welcomed back with open arms, but no! You just had to have morals and refuse to kill the boy. You most likely left this phone behind, knowing how stubborn you are. Even after you left and decided to help the Cahills we offered you the chance to join us again. But you fought the agent who tried to bring you in and even got help from that Janus boy. And again we gave you a offer: kill him and come back. You're just as stubborn as your mother.
