Neon and I walk into my room to chat before catching up with the others. We go over the plan once again after I change before we all jump into Layla's car. She looks scared, avoiding my gaze. I don't know if it's cause she's hiding something from me or it was because I nearly exploded to put it lightly. Before I know it I fall asleep. 

I walk through the convention, a strange fog swirling around my feet. The convention space around me is devoid of people and even noise. I stand on guard when I hear footsteps behind me, but no-one is there. I try my best to steady my breath but I can't, before I know it I'm starting to hyperventilate. My body starts to burn, but my back stays cold sending a shiver down my back. By instinct I build up a charge, it sits warmly in my chest.  

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Layla's POV)
We slowly drive to the convention, but something catches my eye. It's lass. She's fallen asleep in the passenger seat, but what concerns me is she's twitching in her sleep. I can feel warmth radiating off from her chest. I silently curse under my breath before turning off and parking on the side of the road next to a paddock.

"What are we doing?" Mark and Jack say at the same time. I don't answer since I was unbuckling lass and checking her forehead. She's burning up, I need to find a way to cool her down before she makes her body shut down.

"Ok, lass is burning up we need to get her out of the car now." I ordered Mark and Jack before jumping out and running to her side of the car. Mark helps me move lass out of the passenger car seat and lie her gently in the grass paddock. What looks like tar pools on her chest.

I watch as lass twitches in her sleep. I wonder what she's dreaming of. I see Jack is kneeling next to lass, gently checking her forehead while Mark is on the phone. I watch as he paces back and forth, treading a grove in the grass. Jack's voice pulls me out of my daze.

"Somethings happen-" His voice was cut of by a static like sound. As I turn around I see that lass has created a shield in a purple/pink hue, pushing Jack backwards. Something really bad is going on in her mind. I wish I could do more then just stand and watch. As I thought that, an idea popped into my head. I clap my hands as I gasp, startling the guys. Without saying anything I walk over to lass as she lies on the grass, twitching now and then. I reach out and touch the shield around lass. The shield sparks, sending jolts up my arm. The hairs on my arm stand up as my skin prickles with goosebumps. 

I close my eyes and take a deep breath as I listen to the wind blowing through my hair. I feel the energy of the earth around me build up. My breath hitches; I let out a gasp and I snap my eyes open. All I see is white then I hear muffled voices and before long blurred silhouette of people come into view. Before I could see who the silhouettes are, a bright light blinds me.
