It was a text from Kai, short and to the point: “Flight 237 to Howling Heights. They’re boarding now.” The words felt like a punch to the gut, Howling Heights, a city that held memories, both painful and cherished. I had to get there, and I had to get there fast.

Midnight. It might as well be next year. “No,” I whisper to myself, shaking my head as though the phone can see me. “No, no, no, oh hell freaky no way…”

VOLUME TWO: FLUX: Flight Jack sprinted down the hall and skidded to a stop. The three men behind him copied his movements. They held their rifles at the ready in every direction, protecting him from all sides. He pushed his ear to the door and listened. A few muffled coughs came from within.
