Adeline could not open her eyes. In fact she could not even look up. She had placed her forehead, in the middle of the conversation, on the wooden surface of the table after pushing the plate forward. 

There was no way that he would continue listening to the conversation. 

"What the fuck?" Xavier cursed loudly and Adaline did not even have the strength to reprimand him. 

"Exactly," Augustus added. It was after sometime that his parents had also joined. "Why would you not call us immediately when you gained knowledge of all of it?" 

Cassandra gave a bitter chuckle. "We could barely digest what was happening. How do you expect us to give you a call about... Something being there in your room that was just like you then ended up being dead? Rotten, in nature?" 

Adeline even heard her aunt favour the others in this. "We were barely coping with it. If we have to tell you about this, we need to have some kind of answers with us." 

Adeline raised herself and leaned against the chair before giving everyone a bitter look. "How do you expect us to tell you anything when you do not tell us that there was something inside our rooms, that you encountered, and not only and countered that talked to you, that behaved like us and then ended up being dead right in front of you?!" 

Adeline felt like pulling her out at the frustration she felt. 

As if being chased by a demon inside a Jungle was not enough, now she had to deal with something that was inside her house, that looked just like her and had ended up being dead in her bedroom? 

"How long have you known this for?" She screeched in frustration, having been at the ends of her wits. 

"I think.." Tessa gulped,

Cassandra finished, "a day or two after you were gone. It was Teresa and I that witnessed it." 

Adeline closed her eyes and lowered her head. 

Was it just with her over she suddenly felt a chilling sensation in her bones? Something had been inside her room, inside her house, her safety, her safe place and she or anyone else did not have a single or the slightest clue about it? 

"How?" It was Xavier that spoke up, "just buy a vase?" 

Adaline could not help but look up at him. He had a disbelieving expression over his face as if all of this was very hard to digest and it was. 

She could not believe it either but then again she was the one who had been chased by a demon throughout the forest. So if Adaline could not believe what the adults were telling her, how are they going to believe her? 

Being put in a place where she had to view the situation as they had to view hers, Adeline realised that both of the situations looked to be extremely unlikely by someone who had not witnessed firsthand. 

Cassandra nodded, she looked unconvinced. "All we did was change the place." 

"What?" Adeline asked. "Changed the place?" What the hell did that mean? 

Tessa gave a long breath out. "I think we both did the same thing. I know you do not like having flowers in your room which is why I took the flowers out of your room because by the time you would have returned they would have rotted." She gave Adeline a hesitant smile, "I was going to plant them in the soil and just when I reached the backyard they gave an awful smell. It smelled as if.."

"It smelled like someone had been dead for a few." Korr completed. "We did find a foetus inside it." 

"A dead child," Alexandier murmured as his eyes remained on the table. "A dead and unborn child." 

His eyes moved to Cassandra, "what did you find?" 

She gulped but it was her husband who had answered. "We found a foetus and an umbilical cord." 

Adeline's heart dimmed when she heard that again. Why was the wall clock making them repeat the same thing over and over again? It was more than enough for her to hear about the dead children. 

"There is something you are not noticing about both situations. It is very familiar yet deadly." Alexandier's voice seemed scary. "Did you not see how you found a foetus and an umbilical cord in one vase and in the other you just found a foetus?" 

Adeline's forehead creased as she realised that he was right. Her side of the family had not found the umbilical cord. 

"But if they did not find the complete thing, should it not weaken the magic?" She asked quizzically. If someone had forgotten to place one ingredient, it should have affected the entire process. 

Alexandier's eyes snapped to hers and she flinched. If she thought that Xavier was someone who had dead looking eyes, this Warlock was a completely different story. 

"That is not working witchcraft, at least not always." Alexandier chuckled, "maybe that is why you experienced the same issue while you were in the north of the country." 

By God, Adaline was moments away from crying. 

"What do you mean?" Xavier was angry and anyone could tell that from the tone of his voice. She found him placing his hand on her shoulder as he squeezed and rubbed the skin. 

Alexandier answered. "You told me that you had gone for a run," He said to Xavier. "And you had done that even before waiting for Adaline and you were with your friends for some time before you found her running to the edge of the Cliff. Am I right?" 

Xavier gave a firm nod. "Yes." 

Now, the Warlock turned to look at Adaline. "With you, you woke up to Xavier and you were asked by him to run through the forest when it was not even him. So you experienced the same thing that has been going on continuously with you, I'm sure, and the same thing happened in the north.." He murmured the last part to himself.
