In the present day, Thomas is a friendly rival of Barry. He watches the group as they open the Journal during their picnic and senses when the Hidden escape. One of the Hidden creatures, a cyclops, chases him through the woods. Being a vampire he is able to make short work of the cyclops. While he was able to kill it, he still feels shaken up about it and goes to Barry. The two put their differences aside and Thomas joins the group.
