This update is short, but i didnt have a lot of time. Thanks for the reviews! ill have more up tomorrow.

Lauren

I took a deep breath and the air burned in my lungs. I felt stiff as I tried to move my hand. My fingers moved slightly, but there was something holding them down. I tried again and the weight lifted. I heard a sharp intake of breath.

"Oh my God... oh my God. Lauren?" A woman was speaking, her words rushed. "Trick!"

I flinched at the noise and the woman's face came into my field of vision. I couldn't really feel anything but cold and I couldn't speak because my throat and mouth were so dry.

"You were dead," she whispered, tears running down her face.

Soon enough, Trick and Dyson were by my side with a cup of water. Trick put a straw in it and guided it into my open mouth. As I sipped the water I could feel the liquid softening the inside of my throat, easing the burning sensations. When Trick pulled away, I cleared my throat and tried to thank him, but it came out as an unintelligible rasp. I swallowed and took a deep breath.

"It's okay, don't try to speak," the older Fae said. I attempted to nod, but couldn't.

He turned and walked a few feet away and I heard him talking to Dyson and the woman.

"I don't know how this is possible," he said in a low voice. "She was dead for almost an hour. Who knows what kind of mystic power is at work here? Not to mention the fact that she should be brain damaged. She's a human."

"Trick, she's alive," the woman said. I could tell she was still crying, "I don't care how it happened. All that matters is it did."

I was still stuck on what Trick had said. An hour? I'm not brain dead. I feel like I've been hit by a bus, I'm not paralyzed. Then it came back to me. The mysterious Fae had said he'd given me a new life. But why?

Next thing I knew, my lab techs were surrounding me, sticking me with needles and hooking me up to machines.

"Something isn't right about this," I heard Trick say, "We can't be sure that she is still Lauren, Bo."

They must've put a sedative in my IV, because I started to feel so drowsy. As I drifted back off into the darkness, the last thing I remember thinking was, Who is Bo?

Bo

It was me, Kenzi, Dyson, Hale and Trick sitting in the Dal. After Dyson had described everything that had happened in Limbo with Vex and Lauren, we'd been going through books upon books trying to identify the nameless Fae.

Lauren hadn't woken up in the last two days. They'd put her in a coma for whatever reason. Soon, they would start running tests, once they knew her body could handle it.

The door of the Dal opened and two large Fae in black suits walked in, followed by Evony, the Morrigan.

"I've already informed the Ash but I figured your merry little band might want to know, Vex is awake. And he is not happy," she said, looking at us all. "Whatever that thing was seems to have taken his abilities."

Trick spoke first, "That's not possible. No Fae is capable of that."

Ebony looked down at him and raised an eyebrow, "Well, apparently there is, and its taken away the Fae part of Vex. His blood results say he's... human... now."

"That has to be a mistake," Trick said, firmly.

"We can argue about this all day," Dyson cut in, "or we can find out what the hell is going on. This is a threat to both Light and Dark."

"A threat to Light and Dark?" Ebony scoffed and turned towards me, "The only common factor between Vex, Dyson and the doctor is you," she accused, coldly.

Dyson blocked her from me but I put a hand on his arm and pushed him out of the way, "You're right," I told her. "But that doesn't mean we're not all in danger. We need to help eachother right now."

"We've distributed the tea to all of our elders and the Ash," Trick said. "You should do the same."

The Morrigan nodded and then replied, "We'll keep in touch, I suppose." She glared at me for a few seconds then turned and walked out, her henchmen in toe.

"There's something going around and literally sucking the Fae out of people? That's so not cool," Kenzi whispered to me.

"I don't think we're going to find anything in these books," Dyson said. "We should get access to the Ash's archives."

"Me and Dyson will take care of that," Hale looked over to me, "I don't think the Ash will let you or Kenzi step foot in there."

The tavern phone rang and Trick went to answer it.

"Then I guess we'll just stay here and keep looking," Kenzi said as she picked up a new book. She started flipping through the pages, running her finger along the words ands muttering, "Fae sucker, Fae sucker, Fae sucker..."

"We're going to the compound anyway," Trick informed us. "The Ash has ordered that Lauren be woken up."
