Unfamiliar Attraction

Did it Work

The men are standing with shovels ready for the word to dig, Patrick is watching the time,

Rahvyn links into Darius and tells him.

"We are coming they are about to start digging. OK" Darius,"

But he remains silent, Rahvyn tells Patrick,

"That Darius is not responding to his mind link. "

Patrick starts,

" 5, 4, 3, 2,1 dig them out now. "

The men start digging as fast as they can, dirt is going everywhere. Vampires from all houses and clans are standing around waiting to see if the ritual worked. The men are ¾ way down into the hole,

Patrick calls a "stop to shovels" as they don't want to injure anyone by hitting them with a shovel,

The men toss the shovels out and continue to dig by hand. They have begun digging slowly now as they are about 5 inches above them, the men call out,

"They have hit their layer and gently pull the dirt away from their bodies,"

Patrick jumps into the hole and leans over Quinn, touching him, and pulling at him, he is still non-responsive, Patrick pulls him from Darius's grip, picks him up and carries him out of the hole into the house. The men gently pull a non-responsive Darius out of the hole and rush him into the house.

Inside Margareta, Marquis, Randolph, and Marilyn begin cleaning off the bodies of the boys, changing them into clean clothes,

Patrick reassures them,

"This can happen we have to wait. To see if they wake on their own, if not, we will bite them injecting vampires into them. "

Randolph and Marilyn sit looking at Darius,

Marilyn talks to her sweet boy.

"Telling him he needs to come back. She tells him Quinn is waiting for him."

As she brushes his hair off his face.

Randolph looks and asks her,

"If she knew of this love between them,"

Marilyn said,

"Yes, could you not see it with your own eyes? You wanted them together just not like this. Well love is love and they love each other."

Marilyn was clearly annoyed with Randolph's attitude.

Margareta and Marquis talk to Quinn. Telling him

"They love him and that he needs to come back to them.'

Margareta tells Quinn,

"Of what Darius has done for him, and that he should open his eyes to say thank you". She looks at Marilyn and tells Quinn that Darius is waiting for him to wake up."

Randolph looks at Marquis and asks if he knows,

"Of this love affair, "

Marquis tells him,

"No, I only knew he had found someone, I was not aware it was Darius."

Margareta speaks up and tells Randolph,

"That her son loves his son very much, and to please you, he was going to only be his friend, he was willing to give Darius up. It's bad enough. We are going through this; don't you dare try and separate them or I'll take them where you will never find them. "

Marquis understood her frustration: tapped his wife's arm and asked her,

"To settle down."

Patrick has collected some blood from the swans and is carrying it into the room. He stands near Quinn and opens his mouth a little bit and he pours some blood into his mouth. He rubs his hand on Quinn's throat to make it go down., he then repeats this process with Darius opening his mouth a little, and then pouring in some blood and rubbing his throat.

A little over an hour has passed, and the parents are starting to lose hope. Randolph and Marilyn have a heated argument and Darius frowns, both stand up to talk to him,

Darius tries to sit up, call,

"Quinn, "

They motion to the next table, showing Darius that they are waiting for him to wake up as well. Darius asks to be helped up, he sits on the side of the table and leans over touching Quinn. Quinn is still non-responsive, Darius tries to stand and nearly falls both Margareta and Marilyn jump up to help him, he leans on the table,

leans in close to Quinn and kisses him, telling him,

"To come back to me".

Margareta and Marilyn help Darius to a chair beside the table.

Patrick enters the room and talks to Darius, telling him,

"That this can happen, if he does not wake soon, we need to inject him with our venom."

Darius then asks,

"Why wait, inject him now,"

Patrick tells him,

"We can, but I had hoped he would come back on his own."
