Daegan looked over at Hayley, who had her back to him. He knew she wasn't asleep, but he also knew she was in turmoil over what she just heard. "I may not be the most... trustworthy person, but believe me when I say Raphael was wrong about me killing you. There's something about you that's... familiar to me. Way too familiar to be a coincidence. At any rate, both of us should get some sleep... I will sleep on the couch if that helps." And with that, he went over to the door and turned the knob. Before exiting the room, he turned his head slightly to her form and said. "For what it's worth, I apologize for the deceit and will answer any questions you wish to ask me in the morning."<br/><br/>Raphael hung his head in shame at Alex's mood and words. "What would happen if we didn't hide the truth? Do you think we wanted to be secretive about it? My Master is not one to tell everyone his past. I didn't mean to upset you, but there are some things we can't talk about."<br/><br/>"Raph? Is Alex going to be okay?" Daegan asked as the two men watched her paint and ignore them completely. Daegan found her art rather good for a college girl. "No wonder she wanted to sell some of this." He mused. "It's gorgeous."<br/><br/>"I would say 'that's my girl' but I don't think that applies anymore," Raphael said sadly. Both of them sighed and continued to watch her paint. Daegan got on the couch and drifted off to sleep with kitty Raphael at his feet.<br/><div><hr style="height:2px; width:100%; border:0; color: green;background:green;"/></div><br/>"Go! I'll hold them off for as long as I can!" A woman said as Daegan ran away, only a small child at this time. "LADY DOX!" he called as he ran, seeing her fall to a magic rune imbued arrow. He stopped running in the forest and sobbed. "Not this... this shouldn't have happened! I'll make them pay with their LIVES!" He shouted bitterly.<br/><div><hr style="height:2px; width:100%; border:0; color: green;background:green;"/></div><br/>Daegan shot up from his sleep, sweat running down his form, Alex and Haley looking over him. "Oh gods... I was talking in my sleep wasn't I?" he asked them. "Exactly what did you hear?"
