Argus was lying down on his bed still unconscious, his mind was still under the trauma that Talon had brought to him after killing his friends.
He couldn't rest since then.
He would remember the cave fight where they had set their lives on the line for humanity. He had been a loner but when he met Rebekah, Klaus, Amos and Henry it had all stopped. He was happy.
His eyes would twitch each night he saw Talon slaughter them like animals but couldn't wake up so he would fight within his mind but in reality, he was fighting on his bed as Scarlet and Alex held him.
In his broken mind, he would find Chaos who kept on telling him to find his book and that it had to be found by only him. Also in his mind, he would have visions of a brown-haired girl dressed in red armor standing in front of him as she held fire in her right hand.
This continued for two weeks until he woke up after healing completely and with the ambition to warn everyone about his spellbook but before that, he had to explain himself and his goals.
Alex and Jack were equally disappointed because they thought he was Argus but from the past.
He also found out that Jordan and Kendall were still unconscious while slowly dying since they weren't released from the spell that connected them with Hayward.
This scared him so he explained why Talon may want his book and how acquiring it may lead to the end of all life and how it may help them save Jordan and Kendall but where to look was a pure hustle.

Scarlet was in the training room sparing with Leon who volunteered to help her try to master her growing powers.
They were using bowstaffs to train. She had gained control over some memories so her skills had improved over the past three weeks.
Leon swung his staff but she leaned backwards almost touching the ground and dodged it immediately, pulling herself up and pointing the edge staff at his face leading him to surrender and put his hands up as a sign.
Looking at him Scarlet remembered how they jumped to Switzerland after the New York fight. She was holding Kendall in her arms.
They knocked down the door calling for help that day. Jordan and Argus who were all unconscious mainly Jordan who had the most injuries.
Lambert(the butler) is the one who performed healing magic to stabilize him. They couldn't hide it from Leon and her aunt because they were the only ones who could help so Jack and Scarlet explained everything to them from the time they jumped to new york to Talon's encounter and how Jordan and Kendall were injured.
She put out her hand to offer him a lift,
"Are you getting slow old man?" she joked as she pulled him up.
"I just had to let you have it that's all. Consider it mercy," said Leon as he grabbed a towel to wipe the sweat as he walked to the exit.
"So any leads about the spellbook?" Scarlet asked and he suddenly stopped in responde,
"Much as I want to lie," he sighed heavily, "I found out that the book might be an anchor of chaos."
"An anchor?"
"Yes, an anchor, the kid I mean Argus said that the book helped him channel the power of chaos like a stabilizer for his massive power. So I researched on that and found out that Agatha and Argus Our Argus, had weapons similar to that, a bow and a sword," he said.
Scarlet was downright confused by Leon's quick allegations and theories,
"Wait which sword? Like the one I can make...sorry animate."
"Maybe…but can you make it right now."
"Am-not sure."
He moved closer to her and got a closer look then pulled away and said,
"Come with me."
He increased his walking speed as he hurried to the library with Scarlet on his tail.
They walked down a few stairs before they reached a dark room and she couldn't see a single thing.
"Lights," Leon yelled, and the room began to feel bigger like it was expanding on its own and from that small balls of light grew from mid-air each looking like a miniature sun each producing light and displaying the spiral of shelves carrying over thousands of books.
Scarlet couldn't even see the roof but only books and a few tables on the floor they were on. It looked like they were in the middle of the library. For some reason, she felt so connected to this place like she had been here,
"Is it possible for a chaos lord or lords of any sort to be reincarnated?"
She turned to Leon who had been immediately puzzled by her question.
"No, I don't think so. We live long lives but never have I ever heard of a lord reincarnated."
"Then why do I have these memories. I just wanted a normal life Leon now it's been three weeks and my life is this magic and wars,"
She argued angrily.
"Wars... What wars?"
Scarlet had just accidentally mentioned what Agatha had told her weeks ago and she hadn't told anyone because it was supposed to be between her and Argus but the cat was finally out of the bag and Leon was the first to know. She took a deep breathe,
"Yes wars….wars between worlds I don't remember most of what she told me-"
"Who specifically?" Leon stopped her,
"Agatha, a memory of hers did."
Leon stroked his chin, "This is bad. The anchors of chaos and a war of the worlds this is very bad. Why didn't you tell us earlier?" he moved back and forth,trying to crack the connection between the anchors and a possible multiverse war.
He then realized why the book was so important if one had the anchors of chaos all together you can break the walls between worlds and force them to fight using Chaos' power.
Scarlet was now concerned, "What's wrong?"
"Call everyone we need to get the anchors before it's too late," he said then lifted his hands and cast a magical force field around the entire mansion.
Jack and Alex were outside as the the field rose. They quickly got the message and jumped themselves into the house.
"Alex, Jack and Argus. Leon has something important to show us the library." the telepathic message reached them and they ran directly to the library as they had been told.
On reaching the library Argus and Scarlet were already there standing with Leon in front of all of them,
"I guess you are all here."
"What is this all about?" Alex asked.
"Well, it's mainly about Argus' book."
He picked up a book from a shelf that once he opened it created magical hologram-like letters flew from it, all in a foreign enchanted language.
"The book might be something known as an anchor of chaos and if Talon asked for it then my biggest guess is they want to use chaos'
power."
Leon explained, "the anchors of chaos are the strongest weapons of the chaos lords Argus' sword, the book and Agatha's bow which is here and safe under my protection."
"And the others?" Alex asked
"Good question." he grabbed one floating letter that pulled the others forming a glowing map. Jack moved closer and said;
"A map of the multiverse."
"Yes, it will be like your GPS across the multiverse."
"GPS? Wait you are sending us to get the weapons." said Jack,
"Affirmative," Leon answered,
They all looked shocked by his judgment, "Because only a chaos lord can hold the weapons meaning only Argus and Scarlet."
