".....ooooh. Hm." Darrel mumbled.
"True." he said.
"That security WILL be tough to crack." he admitted.
"But I'll give it a shot." he told her.
"Oh, and I need to call Alice, let her know something's screwy with Evan, but things seem all right overall."

"Well, we don't know for certain that something is screwy with my brother." Sammy said after a moment.
"But... Alice was askin', that might be cause for concern in the first place. Get back to her after." She said. "Big something or other.... Evan not answering..... call me paranoid, but that mnight be connected."
"So let's go." She said before holding a hand out to him.

Darrel nodded and accepted her hand, before a portal opened up beneath them, dropping them a short distance, and they landed in an alley beside the building that had her 'get-away' apartment in it.
Once there, Darrel formed a small portal in midair, reached in, and took out a cloth wrap, usually used for artist's tools.
"Right" he said, pocketing the wrap.
"Let's get to work." he told her.

". . . I constantly forget you have a lock pick set." Sammy admitted after a moment or two before shaking her head.
"Let's go." She added before sighing and heading off with him. She waved to someone on the way, someone who knew her, and she knew in return. At least that would help if someone came to claim they were breaking into somewhere they weren't allowed to be.
She led him up to the door and sighed lightly before knocking. When they didn't get an answer, she just looked to Darrell, nodded, and stepped back to be outta his way.

Darrel unfurled his tools, looked at the lock, and sighed.
"Yeah, this is gonna be hard." he said.
With that, he set to work. And he worked for close to an hour straight, before they both heard a clicking and a popping sound.
"Got it." he told her.
"Geez, that was nearly impassable." he commented.
"Anyway, go on in and check." he then said to Sammy.
"I need to pack this stuff back up, quickly."

Sammy nodded.
"If someone came up it wouldn't be that bad." She commented.
"I'm known here." She added before making her way inside.
"Evan?" She called out. After a few seconds she froze though, as she stepped a few feet into the main entraceway.
There was a massive mana barrier, that wasn't nromally there, that she literally walked through.
". . . Evan!?" She then called out, more forecefull this time, as she dove into the apartment, hoping her brother was still alive.

Still, she received silence.
The apartment seemed to be empty. Devoid of anything other than the barrier she had stepped through.
Her search didn't take long... she found her brother.
Laying on his back in the living room.
Unconscious and seemingly dead to the world.

"EVAN!" Sammy half screamed as she raced over toward her brother and kneeling down by him. She checked his vitals, namely if he was breathing and if he had a pulse, before destroying the runes that were around him so that she could mana out.
"Darrell!" She called out as she did so.
"Get your ass in here and lock the door!"

Darrel knew better than to keep Samantha waiting.
Especially when it sounded as urgent as it did.
As such, he quickly wrapped up his tools, shut the door behind him, locked it, and then hastily made his way towards where he'd heard her from.
"....the hell!?" he exclaimed, when he saw what he did.
"What happened to him!?" he asked, getting closer.

'That's the thing, I have no idea." Sammy answered.
"I'm getting him to OLA. Are you coming? You can mana out of here, just not in." She added, managing to keep some degree of calmness to her voice. She had no idea how she was doing that, but she was, and that was good enough.
"Because either you're coming with me or you aren't. You've got five seconds before the mana is here to take Evan and I to OLA. Beyond that, you decide what you're doing."

"I'm coming with." Darrel responded.
"I was going to go to OLA anyway." he told her.
"Nothing big, this is more important, but still." he then muttered.
"Regardless, I'm coming with." he repeated.
"Let's go."

Sammy didn't say anything before nodding, just as her mana came up and encircled them, moments before they were gone.
They appeared in the receiving for the emergency department of OLA, and Sammy was quick to get her brother checked in and tended to. No one had grabbed anything that was there, b ut the book had been in Evan's lap.
As she checked him in, Sammy grabbed the book, before sighing as he was taken away to be tended to. Once they were gone, she sighed and just sat down.
"You... go do whatever you're here for." She told him simply.
"Aunt Alice will tend to Evan, I know he'll likely be all right, but still... this is alarming. I've never seen anything of the sort with mana for him before.

Darrel just sighed.
"I... hm." he muttered.
"I just have a bit of a sniffer issue is all." he told her.
"Odd for a Dhampir, but nothing alarming." he reasoned.
He then shook his head, and sat down beside her.
"...there anything I can do to help?" he asked.
"I doubt there is, but I thought I'd ask."

Sammy was silent for a moment before shaking her head.
'I can't think of anything." she told him honestly.
"Unless you have a direct line to Aunt Vicki, or know of a way to check this book yourself?" She asked, looking to the tome that was in her lap.
"Because.... really? This book was in his lap... it has to be connected."

Darrel looked at the book quizzically.
"...hm?" he mumbled.
"Odd." he said.
"I've never seen one like THAT before..." he commented.
"And sadly, I don't have a direct line to Vicki." he lamented.
"Alice is busy... the best we can do is probably Adrian, who can contact Vito, who works WITH Vicki."

Sammy was silent.
"I... forgot that Vito is practically her personal bouncer there." She admitted.
"I'm ... going to be a bit tied up here, fretting about my brother. Would you mind calling Adrian for me when you're done here?" She asked.
"Because... I don't know if I can..."

"Actually, I'll go do that now." he told her.
"This seems to be a more pressing issue than my little snifflies." he reasoned.
He then leaned in and gave her a side-hug.
"Hey." he said.
"Alice is the best there is." he told her.
"Evan'll be fine."

"I know. But still. He's my twin." Sammy said with a light sigh.
"Just... he's my twin.... " She shook her head before sighing again.
"Anyway, thanks for getting a hold of Adrian for me." She added.

"I know, I know." Darrel said quietly.
He was unsure as to what more to say here, so he broke the embrace and stood up.
"I'm going to head outside. A bit more quiet out there." he told her, taking out his phone.
"Better for calling Adrian." he reasoned.
When she nodded, he stepped outside and found Adrian's contact info, before dialling her number.

Sammy didn't say anything, just nodded before he left.
"Hey Darrell." Adrian answered after a few rings.
"Waht's up?" She asked before pausing.
"You don't normally call...." She added, trailing off and wondering if it was something serious.
