"Well we just turned the corner and this kid starting trying to stab us." Aidan explained, gesturing to the body Ruby was holding.

Zack raised an eyebrow, then looked at the kid. He…. no wait, she? They were unconcious, seemingly peaceful if it weren't for the scuffed up clothing they were wearing.

"They attacked you? Why are they asleep?"

Aidan shrugged. "I don't know. They just…passed out right after saying something about dying in their sleep."

"Well, okay then. That certainly shakes things up."

Zack noticed Aidan wince as he re-balanced himself. He almost moved by instinct to help, but thought the better of it.

"How are you holding up? You both look like hell."

“Do I really?” Ruby asked, smoothing her hair.

"Well, not as bad as Aidan. But yes."

Zack unfastened his satchels clasps and fished for the beaker. He looked to Ruby as he felt around. "Got any vials, Miss Chemistry? I have something for you two."

Ruby smoothed her hair and her clothing, “I don’t think…”
She felt her jacket pocket. “Okay um what the heck. Why do I have a vial… in my pocket.” she muttered
She looked up and held the goal out, “I have one.”

Zack took it and poured some of the beaker's contents into it, then handed it back.

"Save it for a rainy day. Or a shootout. It'll boost your natural powers," he explained. He nodded towards Aidan, "I don't know what it would do for you. For her it'll probably just make the flames a whole lot larger and hotter. For you and me, I've yet to test."

“Isn’t that… illegal?” Ruby asked, warily looking at the vial in Zack’s hand. There was no way Ruby was going to handle something illegal.

Zack shrugged, "Usage is. Creation is. Possesion? It should be. But I haven't seen anything that says you can't carry it around. Silly, I know, but you can rest easy knowing that your hands are clean until you drink it. But by that point you won't care."

Ruby looked warily at him and sighed, she took it and put it in her pocket. She sighed and smoother her hair more, “Do I look worse or better?”

Zack smiled kindly, thankful for her trust in him. Despite the strange looks she gave him from time to time, it was good to have her around.

"Better. Definitely better than our friend here," Zack said, nudging the unconcious person with his foot, "They look so gaunt. And sad."

Ruby nodded but still continued to comb her hair with her fingers. “Well they did look scared and angry when they saw us, and they called us by another name…”

Ruby tilted her head at Sam, scanning their features and clothing, trying to remember what they had said.

Sam turned over in their sleep, coughing slightly. A spurt of red smoke came out, and they were finally able to completely rest.

Zack noted it instantly.

"Red smoke. Fuck, was that a hallucinogen? Or was that…."

The kid turned slightly, and snuggled closer to the ground, apparently a lot more at ease than before. So either that was the aftermath of some powerful hallucinogen, or something else. "Magic, maybe?"

Aidan shrugged. "Magic, huh? Wouldn't be surprised." He glanced at the body on the ground and nudged it with his foot.

“We all have magic.”

"But magic leaving a person only happens when that magic was forced. No wonder they were dillusional, they were hallucnating. And someone was not being kind."

Zack bent down and gently shook them, "Heya, are you alright?"

Sam's eyes shot open, and they lunged, grabbing Zack's wrist. Only then did they relax when they remembered that the illusion of Emma had worn off. "Who… who are you?"

Zack pulled away, then offered his hand, "Zack. Zavoem. You?"

"I… I don't remember," Sam said, frowning. "But the word 'Zavoem' sounds familiar. Who are you?"

Zack frowned, "Pretty sure I just told you. Zack Giles, of Zavoem clan. This is Ruby and Aidan, Zavoem and Yuqed clans respectively. Where are you from?"

“Amnesia?” Ruby muttered under her breath, she played with the little bow on her cloak.

Aidan groaned. "I didn't want to be introduced yet, Zack. I want to know if I can trust this person or not."
