She'd spent the last few nights of the event hiding away from the man who had sent her to a hellish dimension for five years, terrified that even as a ghost he'd have the power to send her back.

Fred pull her phone out to text Sarah but found that she'd already replied to the board post she'd made to get her research list in order. Tapping out a quick reply, she filtered the end about Ed's situation and tucked the phone back in her pocket. "Things like that happen often around here. It's a horrible thing to say but you'll get used to it," she replied.
