Alex smiled at him.  "It's a wee bit late if I do," she told him hopping
into the passenger's seat.  "Just be sure to drive on the correct side of
the road," she teased.

"Yer a laugh a minute, Alex." he teased back and started the engine,
fastening his seat belt before starting off.

He was quiet for a time, up until they had to pause for the ferry, and
looked at her.

"Do ye.. well do ye think the demon will go after Kat and Rachel?  They
aren't guardians of the keys..."

He was thinking of the last time, when Derek and Nick had split off from
Julia -- and what had happened then.  What if Alex and himself were the
'Derek' of then... and they were leaving the others behind?
