That's what I believe, at his core Lucas is not evil, bad, and rotten, but right now fear, desperation, and terror is taking over his heart and making him go loco!

I knew that Harry should have given Lucas hugs and fed him cookies! But does Harry listen to me, no of course not!

The slight hesitation his movements, a slight hitch in his voice, and a fleeting look of shame in his eyes is what tells me of his regret. But then again, I always watch way too closely so I could be over-analyzing. He may have protected himself and Maya by letting the girl die, but I seriously doubt this is something that he enjoyed or liked to do. His hand is forced.
