It had been sweet of Connor to bring Rex from the menagerie given the fact that Abby was sick, but it did mean that they had to keep the flat at high temperatures again. Which was fine, she was feeling hot anyway from the fever, what did some extra heat matter? Sweat the fever out, that sort of thing. Even so, they were on the couch and she was having a hard time focusing on what her fiance was saying.
"No. I thought you said there were radioactive bats in that one."
Rolling her eyes at the comment that he was letting her comment slide because she was sick, Abby punched Connor in the arm weakly before curling up against him, Rex in her lap and drifting off to sleep.
Only to have someone start shaking her and saying she had to get up.
"Connor, leave me alone..." The comment was mumbled in annoyance but then there was something banging over her head and she woke with a start. To realize she was not in the flat with Connor, and that she was in a park on a bench. In her knickers and a tank top. Well, that was not expected. Sitting up, Abby held Rex to her and looked to the police man who was eying her oddly.
"What?"
"Miss, I'm going to have to take you down to the station for indecent exposure."
"Excuse me!?"
"Can I see some identification please?"
Rolling her eyes, Abby put her hands on her hips as Rex climbed onto her shoulders, shooting the officer an annoyed look.
"Does it look like I have somewhere to keep my identification? No. You know what, don't answer that. I don't even know how I got here to begin with!"
"Of course not. Come along."
"This is completely mad!"
Even though she was more than slightly annoyed, Abby followed the officer to his car and held Rex close. She had to find a way to get word to Connor. But really, why was she in the States? This made no sense. Unless an anomaly opened in their flat, but then wouldn't Connor be there as well? The ride was short and once she was in the station, Abby was booked and put into a cell. Which would have been annoying but then they took Rex and that's when things got ugly. Jumping up, the petite blond rushed to the bars.
"Hey, give him back!"
"You have an exotic animal with you, we need to have animal control take it."
"Don't you dare! You bring him back right now!"
No. They couldn't have Rex. They would know something was different about him. Then the experiments. As such, Abby took to yelling at the guards. And glaring at them. She might be sick and underdressed, but no one messed with Rex. They just didn't.
