## Episode Summary

Eilxina tells the group that the balls of light are dangerous Will O’ Wisps, and they prepared to fight. Gale appeared on the other side, out of breath ready to help. As the group banded together, this time with Bismuth here to help them, they were able to defeat the wisps. As the group recovered, Eil heard something off into the forest. They decided to go and investigate, and they were not ready for what they found. Everyone went unconscious and had different dreams or visions and awoke at 11 A.M. the next day in the school’s Health Center along with Luna.

The nurse comes in to check on them and their vitals, jots down some notes, and leaves the room. The group talked amongst themselves, sharing their last memories before they passed out in the forest. Luna explains that she was waiting for Eil to come back when at 3 A.M. she heard a noise in the forest and felt an earthquake. She ran and found the group lying unconscious and went to call for help. She was mid-call when she passed out. Suddenly, a man in a futuristic suit and the nurse come in together, point at Bismuth, and cart him away while he is telling them to stop. The group gets upset that their friend is missing and the President of U of A, Mrs. Amadora, steps into the room to calm them down.

She explains that they were all found in the forest lying unconscious with various injuries and were brought to the Health Center to be healed and monitored in case there were more serious complications. They would all be released as long as they were cleared by the nurse and passed a psych evaluation. Some of their parents are waiting in the lobby, Eil’s father is on the way and will arrive by nightfall. Mortir demands to be released and argues that his father wouldn’t be happy with what's going on. He demanded to speak with him immediately. The president offered a cone of silence for a private phone call. Mr. Yamoto seemed cryptic, wanting to know what happened in the forest, and said that he sent his assistant to collect Mortir and take him where he wishes.

The president leaves and the group discusses the severity of what is happening. They all agree to not share any information, just the basics of what happened. They all want to leave and find out what happened to Bismuth. Everyone checks their phones, Rikki has a missed call and a text from his mom, Eil has a missed call and a voicemail, Gale has a string of missed calls and texts from both parents, while Mortir has none.

One by one, the nurse comes in to evaluate each person and everyone is released and finds Gale’s parents and Rikki’s mom in the lobby. Each person investigates to find out where Bismuth is taken and Eil sees the tracks from the medical bed being skirted around the corner of the hallway. Mortir is the last to be released and is approached by the man who took Bismuth away and states that his name is Derrick, an assistant to his father Mr. Yamoto. Mortir tries to ask questions to find out what’s going on and why they took away Bismuth but doesn’t get much information in return. He leaves, upset about the the situation, and finds the group in the lobby. Gale’s parents are overly worried about Gale and happy he has new friends. Rikki’s mom is happy to see her child safe. The group discovers their parents were told that there was an animal that attacked them in the woods and they will work on more security.
