Rebecca had spent Christmas with Tanya, watching reruns over a dinner of rotisserie chicken and homemade pie, while they packed the young woman's modest belongings in preparation for her heading off to film school. She was just returning from the dorms, where she'd spent the day helping Tanya get unpacked and settled--showing her how to put up wards around her room, just in case--and hadn't checked the network since she'd spoken to Clyde the night before--so she had not yet heard the news of Annie's disappearance.
She did have an uneasy feeling that there was trouble lurking between the lines of Rick's latest post, so she was in a bit of a hurry to get back to the apartment and make sure nothing was amiss--but the prickle of alarm at the back of her neck as she let herself in should have clued her in on just that. Perhaps she had grown overconfident in her truce with the brother billy goats gruff, but then, no one had ever accused Ruby of being particularly cautious.
The last thing she expected was a troll under her own bridge.
