Amelia walked to the living room where the phone was. She picked it up and called her daughter’s cell. When Claire didn’t pick up, she left a message.
“Claire, when you get this, please call me back. I’m not angry with you for taking the car without asking. I’m just really worried”
She tried to think of something else to say, but couldn’t come up with anything and so she hung up. She walked to the kitchen. Jimmy had requested some tea and she was going to make some.
When it was ready she poured the tea in a cup and carried it upstairs. She opened the door and walked inside their bedroom.
“Here’s your tea” she smiled weak as she walked to the bed. “I’ll just put it here. It’s still very hot”
“I’ll take my chance” Jimmy commented and he took the cup in his hand.
“Careful” Amelia said concerned.
Jimmy blew in his tea and then took a sip. He frowned and looked up.
“Something wrong, sweetie?” Amelia asked with a small voice.
“Didn’t I specifically ask for oolong tea?” Jimmy asked. Amelia nodded. “Then why do you bring me green tea?” he yelled as he threw the cup of tea at his wife. Amelia jumped aside and the cup scarcely missed her.
“I’m sorry” she moaned, at the brink of tears. “We don’t have any oolong tea. I didn’t think you’d be able to tell the difference”
As she saw Jimmy step out of bed she backed away.
“Why?” Jimmy snapped and he grabbed her by her hair. “Because I’m stupid? You’re the one who’s stupid” He pushed her on the floor. “You clean that up”
Amelia, shaking over her entire body, started collecting the fragments, trying not to burst into tears, for she knew that would only make him angrier.
“Maybe I can go to the store, see if they have oolong tea” she suggested, in an attempt to make up for her mistake.
Jimmy, who had returned to bed, looked up. “What?” he asked confused. “No, don’t bother, dear. I’m good”
Amelia stood and walked to the door. “I’ll see if I can reach Claire” she mumbled and she staggered outside.

Cas stroked his hair and tried to keep his breathing under control. Meg didn’t understand. He needed more. He had lied about the pain being back, but he hadn’t lied about needing another dose. He opened the upper buttons of his shirt, suddenly feeling feverish.
He hurried to the dresser and opened all drawers and cupboard doors. He searched through them, checking all boxes, finding nothing. He slammed everything shut and began to rub his fingers again.
“If I were a medicine cabinet, where would I be?” Cas mumbled trembling and out of breath. He ran to the stairs and sprinted upstairs. He went to the bathroom and opened the mirror cupboard.
“Got it” he said, sighing relieved and he grabbed all boxes that had medicines in it. He took out all the strips and swallowed the pills one by one.
He leaned against the cold, marble wall and sank down on the floor. He closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Anna materialized in the ICU. The doctors had brought Cas here. There was nothing they could do as long as they didn’t have the donors they needed.
Anna, holding a pair of kidneys in her left hand and a liver in her right hand, quickly walked to the bed. She removed the sheets with her mind and cut open Cas’ belly. While blood streamed alongside Cas’ unconscious body and on the matrass, Anna put the organs in their rightful place.
The monitor started beeping and Anna vanished, when a team of doctor’s came rushing into the intensive care.
“I need to talk to security” the doctor said, when he’d fixed up Cas’ properly. “Someone was here. Someone attempted to kill this man”
“Someone who gave him the organs he needed?” his assistant frowned. “Why would anyone do that?”
“I don’t know” the doctor said. “But I want someone to keep an eye on him, as long as he’s here”

Meg looked around the police station. So that was why no one was answering her calls for help. They were all dead. There were bodies everywhere and their insides were torn out. The floor was covered in blood.
“Meg”
Meg looked up. Daphne had entered the building. She stared shocked at the bodies.
“You killed all those people” she said trembling. It wasn’t a question, but an observation. “You’re going to hurt more people. I can’t let you do that”
“You can’t handle me. I’m too strong for your” Meg said. She walked towards Daphne and passed her. If she was going to try something Meg could easily take her down.
However, as she passed by, Daphne jumped forward and stabbed Meg in her neck with syringe, containing a red substance.
“Aaaahhh!” Meg gasped and she touched her neck. “What the hell are you doing?”
But Daphne had left the building and ran for her life.

Meg read the book as if it was a detective and she wanted to know who the killer was. Daphne’s life had been a roller coaster due to her illness. But everyone knew Daphne was crazy, including Cas’ attorney. So she kept looking for something different.
When she was near the end she discovered something strange. She flipped a few pages, when a piece of paper fell out of the book. Meg picked it up and opened it. She read the letter and compared the handwriting with the one in the book.
She threw the book on the floor and conjured her phone.
No signal, it said
“Damn it!” she cursed.
She carefully stretch her arm, but the Key of Solomon was still working perfectly.
She looked at the hard stone floor and stamped on it, causing part of the floor to break. Meg grabbed a piece of the floor and threw it at the ceiling.
The Key of Solomon broke and Meg kicked her cell open.
