Fred hadn't meant to come this way. She'd been heading the Hospital; the night before Angel had agreed to help her, now she was going to do some of that investigative footwork on her own. Just go ask questions; she'd also ask about Wesley and all her other friends, or acquaintances. She had to know that everyone was okay.
The only way to explain how she missed the first ship as she walked along the shoveled pathway in the Park is that she was doing her best to get to the Hospital. It wasn't until she saw what she thought was the Enterprise that she came to a stop.
"Wow." It was soft and awe filled. The City had brought the USS Enterprise.
