Chapter 0547

Rafe doesn't respond, just looks up at Jesse. "Can you do anything? To...tell if he's still in there?"

"If who's still in...where..." Alvez murmurs, raising a hand to his forehead and pressing it over his eyes like he has one hell of a headache.

I watch, completely still in Jackson's arms, as Jesse's shadows snake across the floor.

Ben gasps in shock, taking a step back, and Luca's whole body goes tense next to me. "Fucking magic..." Luca whispers, awed and I think a little horrified, "of course, I always forget that you're all...fucking magic."

But I ignore him, watching as the shadows slip over Alvez, begin to explore him.

Alvez gasps in surprise, his eyes flying open, going a bit stiff. He stays perfectly still as the shadows finish their exploration, clearly not hurting him even if he does look very, very freaked out by them. Then Jesse's shadows begin to slide away, reeling back into my cousin's body.

"I think he's...gone," Jesse says, crossing his arms as the last of the shadows disappear. "I mean, I don't know, I've been doing this for less than ten hours now. But...I could sense him in there at first - and now I think it's just...this guy."

"Come on, Ben," Jackson says with a sigh, loosening his arms around me and urging me a little towards Luca. Luca immediately opens his arms, taking me into them as Jackson waves Ben to come along as he strides for Alvez. "Let's get the professor down to the infirmary."

"Where am I?" Alvez asks, exhausted, looking up as Jackson takes him by his hands and pulls him to his feet.

Alvez's arms over his shoulders as Ben moves to support his other side. Luca loosens his arms around me, starting to move towards Jackson and Ben, eager to help - but Jackson holds a hand out. "It's okay, we'll handle it," Jackon says, looking back down at the professor who is slumped against him. "Stay here with Ariel, Luca.
