Keira had a box of items in her hands- it was some of her stuff she was packing into Kaelyn's new car. Her mom had promised her one but she hadn't got it yet- she didn't mind, she was getting an apartment. Well they already had it, just to transfer their stuff which was turning out to be more than she had expected. As she passed the basement door, a strange noise made her backtrack in her steps.
Then something unexpected happened- the ground beneath her was moving. And so was everything around her. An earthquake! As she began losing her balance she was simply going to blink out to somewhere safe but before she could do that she fell forward and crashed into the basement door which had gotten so weak over the years it broke. She didn't even realise the box was no longer in her hands as she landed at the bottom of the stairs in pain and was vaguely aware of the door closing by itself and she was shrouded by darkness.

Kyle was helping one of his other charges when he heard another's thoughts. She was in pain and was scared. "I'm very sorry Jade, I have to go. I'll be back to check up on you later" he said as he orbed into the kitchen of the Manor. He looked around, and noticed that the basement door was broken. "Keira?" he asked as he saw her lying there on the ground, at the bottom of the steps. "Keira!" he sort of shouted, orbing to the bottom of the steps since she was at the bottom of them. "Keira, can you hear me?" he asked, searching for the spot she had pain in so he could try and heal it. He waited for a response, so he could help her.

Keira realised the earth had stopped shaking and tried to sit up but it hurt too much. She heard a voice and recognised it as her aunt's husband, and whitelighter Kyle. "Yes but i've got a horrible headache..." she said weakly, trying to figure out what was going on but it only made her head hurt more.

Kyle looked at her, grateful that she was alive. "Alright, just hold still" he said as he put his hands over her forehead and healed her. "Does anything else hurt?" he asked, concerned. He sat down next to where she was, looking at her. "What happened? Why is the door broken?" he asked, glancing at the door. Did she do that? he wondered to himself. If she did, then why?

"No...it's ok..." she lied, sitting up and trying her hardest to not wince in pain. The pain wasn't serious anymore but she didn't want him to worry...it would make her get worried too. She glanced at the door as he asked her how it got broken. "I fell through...there was an earthquake. Then the door...well what remained of it...closed by itself."

Kyle looked at her and knew she was still hurting. "Keira, don't be afraid to tell me if your still hurting. I know you are, and it's ok. Where does it still hurt?" he asked, concerned. His head shot towards the door. "Are you positive it was an Earthquake?" he asked, turning his head into the darkness. "You said the door closed by itself?" he asked again, throwing some orbs intot he air to give them light. He looked around and saw a crack in the floor, right where the Nexus is.

"My whole body just aches...nothings broken so you can't heal it," she said, wishing that he could heal it. She frowned slightly when he asked if she was sure it was an earthquake. "Yea I'm" She followed where he was looking. "You don't think-?" she didn't bother to finish the question, he knew what she was going to ask.

Kyle looked at her. "Yes, I think it's quite possible this was caused by the Nexus. I'm not sure how exactly it did it, but we have to tell your aunts and mom" he said as he walked towards the Nexus. He stood over the crack in the concrete, looking at it carefully. "I don't sense any evil here, so I am curious as to how this could have happened" he said looking over at Keira.

Keira stood up holding on to the stair railing for support. "Maybe you just can't sense the evil...its being cloaked somehow?" She groaned when he said she'd have to tell her mom and aunts. "Do I really have to?" She knew her mother would get worried and she didn't want her mother worried over her...they had enough problems as it was. She saw the look on Kyle's face. "Fine...later though," she said. She didn't want her mom to see her in pain to the point where she used a stair railing for support.

"Okay, Later. But you have to tell them sometime. I'll come with you if you want" he said as he looked at her. She was really in pain and it killed him to see her like that. "You sure you don't want me to see if I can take away some of the pain?" he asked her, giving her his concerned look.

"I thought you could only heal like...illnesses and injuries and stuff?" she asked him smiling weakly at his concern to attempt to show him he shouldn't worry so much.

Kyle smiled. He always liked how smart Keira was. "Well wouldn't you say this was an injury? It wasn't caused by you, so technically I should be able to heal you. It wasn't self inflicted, so there won't be any consequenses" he said as he gave her a small smile. "What do you say?" he said, as he looked around.

"Alright then you can try," she said gratefully. She was focusing on supporting herself but she couldn't help be distracted by the crack in the floor. "Is that where...the nexus is?"

Kyle smiled as he placed his hands oer Keira. It took a minute or two before his hands started glowing. He managed to finally heal her, it taking a few minutes. "There, better?" he asked as he heard her second question. "Yes Keira, the nexus is under that crack" he said a sh estood up again.

"Much," she said as he asked if it was better. She let go of the railing and glanced around her to see the box and a few of its contents out of the bag on the floor. She bent down to pick them up and as she was near the crack she was sure she saw something move. Throwing the last of the items into the box and picking it up she looked at Kyle. "Did you see that?"
