"What happened?"

Stephan asked worriedly, the moment he stepped into the apartment. 

Quietly , Viola shut the door and then turned to him.

"Something came up"

She replied as she walked into the living room.

"Feels like something odd happened here"

He said, following behind her.

"Yeah one of your kind attacked us yesterday"

She folded her arms standing before him.

"What's that supposed to mean? I don't get"

He asked her.

"Some sort of demon possessed Gwen but I was the major target. She was only bait to get to me. "

She replied , sitting on the couch.

He wasn't so surprised. He stared at her while she sat and then moved to sit beside her. 

" Were you hurt?"

He asked her calmly with his eyes looking straight at the empty space before him.

"No but she is"

Viola replied sadly.

"It's not your fault"
