## History

### Dawn of Magic

Adira notices Ian in a big group of boys that gather during recess. As the conversation between the boys progresses, Ian mentions that a girl named Emma is cute, and Nathan remarks that she is nerdy.

After the assembly, Ethan complains to Adira that Ian, along with Lauren, Kevin, and Bekah are acting weird. When Adira, Lauren, and Kevin discuss the Furies, Bekah interrupts the conversation and accuses Adira of leaking information to Ian, She claims that Ian came up to her and told her that Adira told Ethan to tell Ian about the Furies. Kevin then takes the blame for gossiping to Ian, even though he wasn't the culprit. Kevin says that he suspected Ian to be one of the "Chosen."

Ian is part of the group of kids Adira decides to hang out with after fighting with Bekah. Ethan and Ian get into a conversation. While Adira is in her English class, she remarks that Ian had joined their group. She later wonders if she should talk to Ian about Bekah's condition after being hurt. Adira looks down on her paper and sees that she had written his name all over her homework, so she quickly erases it. Later, Kevin discloses the reason why Taryn and Maeve fought: it was because Taryn heard Kevin and Ian prying information out of Bekah, and Taryn went to go gossip to Maeve.

While Adira stays at the hospital after Bekah ignites a fireball inside her lungs, Kevin tells her that Ian and her other friends are on her side. When Adira is inside Ethan's dream, Ethan mentions that Ian doesn't have a phone when he wonders how Bekah was doing after Adira hurts her.

### Dawn of Magic scenes

Ian is shocked that Adira attacks Robby and confronts her as to why she did it.

At Karter's house party, Ian has a sudden panic attack while carrying china and drops them as he falls to the ground, and Ethan repeatedly calls out for him after hearing the crash. Bekah reports to him and Adira that when Taryn found him, his eyes were glazed over and that he was muttering strange words. She exclaims that he knew too much, presumably about Bekah's secret. Then, Ian wakes up from his trance, dazed but not injuried. He flashes an embarrased grin to the crowd and the kids laugh.

On Halloween night after Adira calls her siblings, Bekah calls Lauren, Kevin, Ian, and Ethan and commands them to come to Adira's house. Once the group leaves the house and discovers Joseph, they send Ian to scout ahead to search for a minotaur.
