| Katherine looked up at Justin, worried about him because of Zarin's disappearance. "How are you feeling" Katherine asked curiously. It was sweet how she genuinely cared for him, a good and rare trait in the modern age. | |

| A tickle had developed in his throat and at her question, Justin gave the smallest cough possible. "I'm alright," he said right before his tickle became a full blown coughing fit. He could already feel the starting effects of Zarin's disconnection. | |

| Katherine headed into the kitchen, and made Justin a special drink to help his throat feel a bit better. All she could do was hope that Zarin returned soon. She carried the drink over to Justin, and handed it to him as she sat beside him. "This should help you feel better" Katherine said softly. | |

| Still choked up enough to not be able to answer, Justin took the cup and drank the liquid. "Thanks," he managed to puff, taking another drink. After he'd finished the contents, Justin laid back on the couch and closed his eyes for just a moment, feeling exhausted. He even looked drained, despite not having done anything today except eat and look at the location of Seth's staff. | |

| Katherine did her best to help Justin feel better. For the first time since she was exposed to the Mirakuru serum, she felt totally powerless, and she hated it. "You need to rest, you need to get some sleep" Katherine said softly before letting down Justin's seat, and draping a blanket over him. | |

| Justin mumbled something, pulling the blanket further over his shoulder and snuggling against the couch. Exhaustion didn't let him do anything except lay there asleep. He knew what the next symptom would be. It would be him growing a fever. It would be the start of his sickness the longer Zarin stayed away. | |

| Since Justin was asleep, Katherine decided to get some work done. She grabbed her kit, and quickly raced off, hoping to get the contract done quickly. Thanks to her timing, as well as her good aim, she had the job done in roughly half an hour. Katherine raced home, dropping her kit at the door before heading over to check on Justin. | |

| Justin had slept from the time she'd given him the medicine to soothe his throat to the time she got home. Now he sat with the TV on, trying to take his mind off of the fact that Zarin had left him so suddenly. | |

| Katherine was annoyed that Zarin was still gone, that Justin was paying the price for his absence. She gently placed a hand against his forehead, and let out a sad sigh before grabbing a wet face cloth and some ice out the freezer, and gently setting it on his forehead. Where the hell was Zarin?! | |

| Justin tried mumbling something about how he was okay, but his words were slurred. Definitely not okay. However, he did manage to look up at her with tired eyes and mutter something about a tracker on Zarin. How there was a way to track the demon by simply writing his name on a piece of paper touched by a god. Perhaps it would show where Zarin was and what he was doing. | |

| Katherine listened to Justin's slurred speech before handing a piece of paper to Seth. Seth touched the paper, handing it back to Katherine before she quickly scribbled Zarin's name on the page. "Egypt?! What the hell is he doing there?!" | |

| Justin had fallen back asleep by that point. His body was fighting. While on the piece of paper, it spelled out the words 'staff' and 'past', as though Zarin was trying to find the staff and also the past.. | |

| "He's gone after it on his own? Jesus Christ..." Katherine took a seat, trying to figure out what to do. Should she go after Zarin in Egypt, or stay and help Justin? Justin... She looked over to Justin, and hung her head sadly. There was nothing she could do to help him, and she couldn't abandon him either. "Seti... I need your help... He needs you." Seth slithered out of his tank, and headed over to Justin. He spread himself over Justin in an attempt to help him through this. | |

| Justin felt his symptoms lesson, as though someone was pulling them off him like one would pull a bandaid off of a wound to let it air out. He said a quiet thank you to Seth, glad for the comfort before he reached a hand out to Kat, wanting her as well. | |

| Katherine gently placed her hand in Justin's, giving it a gentle squeeze. If Zarin didn't return soon, and Justin's condition worsened, she would have no choice but to let Seth possess him. She hated seeing Justin like this, but what more could she do to help him? Fly to Egypt, alone, and drag Zarin back by the ear? She had to stay with Justin, she had to care for him in his time of need. | |

| All that night, Justin slept and felt like a fever was coming on. That's when Zarin came back and reconnected his tether to the boy. Justin would feel better in the morning, as with Zarin around, he healed quickly. | |

| Katherine had been tending to Justin for the better part of the night before eventually passing out on a large beanbag. As soon as Zarin returned, Seth slithered over to Katherine, gently wrapping himself around her wrist before falling asleep himself. | |

| When the morning sun came, Justin was the first to wake up. He no longer felt cold, no longer had his cough nor his fever and the color of his skin had come back. What's more, he could feel a powerful artifact nearby, though he ignored it for the better part. Justin cast his gaze over to Kat, smiling before he got up off of the sofa and crossed over to the kitchen, where he began to make breakfast for them both. Sausage, eggs and toast is what was on his menu today, along with either a cup of coffee, orange juice, apple juice or chocolate milk. | |

| Katherine awoke to the wonderful scent of food wafting through the house, smiling from ear to ear. It could only mean that Justin was up, and not only that, but he he was better. She climbed off the beanbag, and headed to the kitchen before wrapping her arms around Justin in a tight embrace. "I can't believe you're feeling better" Katherine said softly, completely ignoring Zarin. | |

| Justin smiled at her and turned around, giving her a massive kiss on the lips before he went back to flipping the sausage. "I think Zarin's back," he said with a small chuckle. "This is only the...fifth time he's up and left me." He said, trying to get a chuckle out of his girl. | |

| Katherine was taken aback by the kiss, and it definitely put her in a much better mood. She was furious with Zarin, and she was willing to do do some damage to him after what he had put Justin through. "So he's done this to you before" Katherine asked quietly. She was still angry with Zarin after what he did to Justin. | |

| Justin gave a small nod. "Usually he doesn't come back for a full week," he said, putting the sausage on a plate that was already on the table. "I'm quite surprised he only left for a few hours." | |

| Katherine calmed down even more when she heard that this had been a much shorter absence than usual. Perhaps she wouldn't go through Zarin like a ton of bricks. "All the same, I'm glad you're better" Katherine said softly. "A bit of warning would be nice next time though, Zarin. That was scary..." | |

| "My apologies," Zarin said simply and remained quiet for a while, going to visit Seth probably. Justin chuckled softly and sat down at the table. "Breakfast is ready, Kitten," | |

| "Thank God. I was starving" Katherine said jokingly before sitting down to eat. She always seemed like she was starving given the sheer amount of food she ate. It was slightly concerning that if she ate this much now, how much would she eat when she fell pregnant?
Seth was pacing about in his tank, sensing an artefact so close to him. Perhaps it was his staff, of his son's sword? Either way, Seth was eager to be let out. He could sense Zarin's presence, and ceased his pacing. | |
