"Of course, of course." Edmund said with a quick nod. He looked to the side, staring blankly. "I can't help but feel a little guilty..' He murmered finally.

"You couldn't have known all this would have more of an effect on her than anyone else." Raythor shrugged. "Besides, you aren't exactly the first one who decided to have children anyway." He crossed his arms and stared awkwardly at the wall, thinking. His mouth set in a line. "It's just hereditary..."

"It's my blood.." Edmund said, not even glancing at Raythor. "But I have more than she does, so why...?" He shook his head, snaping back into his normal tone. "Well, I'm going to go to bed now." He said "You should get some rest too." turning, he walked briskly away.

Raythor looked after him blankly, not sure what else he could have said anyway. Then he looked down at Thunder. "Come on, let's go." He knocked quickly on Anella's door. "I don't want to bother her more than I have to, so you stay in there all right?" Thunder just looked up at him and wagged his tail, glad to be getting any sort of attention.

Anella shifted only very slightly at the noise. She was already fast asleep, hugging one of her pillows tightly. She lay on top of the covers, not even having bothered to change out of her dress.

At the lack of noise, which he had sort of been hoping for, Raythor took hold of Thunder's collar and pulled him back to his own room. He stood in his guest room for a minute, thinking about whether or not he was actually going to sleep tonight. Then he slipped out the window.

(well, that's normal) Elsewhere Edmund had also fallen asleep, almost the second his head hit the pillow. Elissa walked in and sat next to him with a sigh. She had just finished putting Henry to sleep, hoping against hope that her family was going to be alright.

(Well you know, most people are like 'hey, honey I'm never going to leave you' and then jump out the window and walk around like freaks at night the first chance they get. I know I am.) Thunder, with much distress, followed him. (Filler post of justice!)

(I'm just going to go ahead and take this opportunity to time jump.) Elissa walked as quickly as she could without breaking into a jog. She didn't stop until she reached his door, and pounded on it desperately. "Raythor?" She said "Raythor are you there? I..I need your help...quickly, please..."

(sometimes I wish real life could time jump. That would be so cool.) "Yeah. I'm here." Raythor said, shaking the semi sleep from his eyes. He opened the door and scanned Elissa's face. "What's going on, what do you need me to do?"

(That'd be WICKED.) "T-there's something wrong...terribly wrong..with Anella a-and Edmund.." She said, her voice starting to crack "I-I can't even get Henry to wake up!"

(Oh I know!) "What?" Raythor said, instantly waking up fully. He looked past her and into the hallway as if expecting to see someone there. Then he looked back at Elissa. "Where are they, what's wrong with them?"

"A-Anella's in her room....I don't..I don't know where Edmund is, where he went.." Elissa said, trying desperately to breathe. "But they're...I-I don't know, but something's wrong!"

"All right." Raythor said, thinking. "Well, try to calm down Elissa. I'm sure the two of us can figure out what's going on and stop it." He slipped past her and into the hallway, standing in front of Anella's door before he looked back and at her mother. "Do you want to go in first?"

Elissa shook her head. "just..just go.." She said "You need to s-see what I mean."
