The wind from the "outdoor" part of the panic room softly blew against Joe's face and it woke him up. He looked over his shoulder and saw that the sliding doors that led to the garden were open and Lydia was sitting on the bench, staring at the projection of stars in the ceiling that now looked like the night sky.He got off the mattress and walked over to the door to speak to her about everything that was going on."Hey," He called out to her with a smile on his face."Hey," She responded and smiled back at him.Lydia looked at the stars again and was deep in thought about what their future may hold. Joe did the same thing and they were both silent for about a minute before Joe ended it."Can you tell me what happened to you, after you ran away from home?"

As Joe was being choked by the vines, he struggled to get free of them but he wasn’t strong enough to do so. He could feel the life being choked out of him and desperately tried to do something, anything to get free but he couldn’t. He tried to use his powers but the vines were wrapped around his palm and were somehow negating his magic.Kurt was deep in sleep and had no idea that his best friend was being killed right beside him and Josh couldn’t do anything to wake him up.He slowly began to lose consciousness and just as he was about to close his eyes and slip away, he spotted some of the vines underneath the door to Lydia’s room and he realized that she was also being killed.“Lydia,” He spoke her name in his head, desperate to save her because he could not afford to lose the only member of his family that he had just found.They may have just met each other but their bond was already very strong and their connection was extremely powerful; they just didn’t know it yet.“Joe,” A v
