Madison is hundreds of miles from me, but it was not an option to stop and think about her. Not when she was being kept safe.

Indy is a confident Wolf, but even confident Wolves can get backed into a corner where they see no way out. They eventually give in to defeat. But this was not defeat, not yet. Not until that Witch is dead. Turning around, I find Klaus still looking out the window. The white Wolf stands on his hind legs, his front feet propped up on the windowsill right next to Klaus.

"Anything?" I press. The wolf gives me a condescending side glance.

Klaus shakes his head at me. "There are less and less people passing by. Indy is right. Now is the time."

"You really want to do this?" In the past he had never been one to jump head over heels into an attack.

He briefly frowns and turns to Indy "Tell me everything you know."

"There isn't much else. I told you, it was made to look like she didn't exist. I think we are the only ones who remember her. If she is anywhere, it will be the dungeons, I'm sure of it."

"Did she try to overthrow Serkan?" I ask, remembering what Silas had told us,

"I don't know. If she did, I don't know anything about that. I do know that Amelia hasn't always been crazy." Indy tuts. "Maybe, a little longer than when everyone else started acting weird. When I was little, she would always walk Silas around and play games with the other children." She looks at Orion and shrugs her shoulders. "He thinks maybe it started just before everyone else was affected, but he can't be sure."

"There is only one way to find out. Where is that potion?"

Orion passes me the small vial of blue liquid. Carefully untwisting the lid. I drop a tiny spot on my tongue and pass it to Klaus. He repeats the process and then gives Xavi an extra drop. Orion and Indy do the same.

Pulling the door open, music fills the courtyard. No one of any kind could be seen though I did wonder how the others were not being influenced by the sounds. A question for another time.
