"I'll be checking,” I tell them before dragging Reika inside.

"Are you hungry?" I ask her but she shakes her head.

"No, I just want to go to bed. I feel funny, I think I ate too much,” she says. It was 6PM and definitely too early for bed but I followed her up the stairs anyway, deciding to shower. I checked the boys bathroom, noting that they had, indeed cleaned the mess they made. Reika wanders into the bedroom when I hear them cursing in their room.

"What's wrong?'' I ask, popping my head in their bedroom.

"Stupid DVD player isn't working,” Tyson whines.

"Use your Xbox"

"No, I can't, it is updating,” Tyson says.

"You can take the one out of my office if you want, just put it back when you're done,” I tell him and Ace jumps off the bed rushing down the hall to my office.

I go into the bedroom and then the bathroom to find Reika sitting in the bottom of the shower, resting her head on her knees. I strip my clothes off before shutting the bathroom door. Getting in the shower I jump when I feel how icy cold the water is.

"I feel funny," she mumbles.

"The water is freezing,” I tell her and she shrugs, not seeming to mind. I change the temperature.

"I gave up trying to fix the taps,” she says, as I adjust the temperature. Her scent was stronger and I reached down pulling her up and against me, her skin was warmer too. I grab a cloth and start washing her and she leans heavily against me.

"I feel dizzy" she mutters before suddenly going limp, her body slipping between my arms as she collapses.

"Reika?" I panic, grabbing her but she was all floppy. Brax presses forward worriedly.

"What's wrong with her?" He asks. I picked her up, cutting the water off and draping a towel over her. She was burning up, her skin becoming flushed.

She comes back to, a few seconds later.

"You okay?" I ask her, as I place her on her feet beside the bed. I dry her and she drops on the bed before climbing on it.

"Yeah, just hot,” she says, flopping on the bed naked.

"It's not hot" Brax says when suddenly Tyson's voice flits through my head.

"Ryker!"

"What? I am dealing with Reika" I snapped at him.

"Ryker, get in here now! You need to see this,” Tyson says and I roll my eyes before tucking the blanket around her. I grab some shorts, slipping them on, not even having time to dry myself.

"Be in soon,” I tell him before placing my hand on Reika's head.

"I will get you a bottle of water,” I tell her she nods before kicking the blanket off.

Walking out, I shut the door and walk to Ace and Tyson's room. "What? Reika is sick, so this better be good,” I tell them when Ace points to the screen of the TV.

"Why are you watching this?" I snap at them seeing the video of Lucy playing.

"It was in the DVD Player, and we were curious. But watch,” They say.

"I already seen it, turn it off before Reika sees it"

"Ryker fucking watch it!” Tyson snaps, and I was surprised to feel a bit of his aura slip out of him. Weaker then mine, but definitely present. I turn facing the screen not wanting to watch it again. It was sickening. I could see her dead on the screen, her spine sticking out through her chest cavity. I go to snatch the cord out of the wall when Tyson grabs my arm stopping me.

"No! Wait,” he says pointing to the TV. I stare at it, annoyed they were making me watch it when suddenly her dead body moves.
