But I should really have a back up plan. ------ Joanna POV: It was midnight and honestly it was quiet. Around this time is when people come out to this part of time and require some of my services. No one wants to be seen going to the dark part of town, that could only mean their looking for trouble. I just sat behind the desk and read until I heard the door chimed. I peeked up and a woman came in. She looked like she was trying to hide her identity, but in was failing terribly. Even in the dimly lit room, she looked a bit familiar I just couldn’t place where.

Immediately when I got inside the Cafe, my eyes fell upon a tiny figure browsing over a book and a smile on my face increased, touching both of my ears. I didn't have to search for him, he was the only one with a face structured like a koala; his eyes were radiantly twinkling as usual, while he read a book in front of him.

That thought was quickly tossed aside because if that was the case, the noises I made by kicking in a window aloud with my own cries and outburst from dressing my wounds would undoubtedly have been heard. Curled up between the two chairs with my face barely sticking out of my sleeping bag, my eyelids feel weighted with exhaustion and the comfort of finally being warm. The small LED lantern is in the dimmest mode, sitting on the table beside me casting a soft warm light.

The last thing I remember doing before passing out for the n

The Uber arrived outside just as we were walking out, my mom had gotten one for us just in case. After the short ride, the night was ready to begin. Thankfully, Seth was on good terms with the bouncer at the door so we got in without a wait. The inside of Panic was loud and full of colors, which somehow seemed brighter than they had ever before. “It’s wolf vision,” Leah said in my mind. “We can see in the dark. As the days pass, we are getting stronger. In a few days' time our full strength will be revealed.”

They were a cacophony of real people—activists, tech-anarchists, and obsessed fans—whose flashlights and camera-phones cut through the dim interior of the bookstore like searchlights in a prison yard. ​Julian Vane IV stood amidst the glass shards, his $2,000 shoes crunching on the remnants of Mia’s "Local Authors" display. He looked at the subpoena notification on his phone, his face pale in the rhythmic blue-and-red strobes of the approaching NYPD cruisers.

I growled under my breath, veering back to look at the strip center. Then I saw it. Betty's Books…24-hr bookstore. A honk sounded from behind me. The light was green. I pulled into the turn lane, whipping a u-turn and pulling into the parking space. I got out, stepping into the empty storefront. It wasn't unusual. Who would go to a bookstore at 9 PM on a weekday?

Ray sleepily added commentary as the went through the story. Bright continued his task of trying to decide just how to redecorate their home and occasionally teased Ray about his obsession with the story.
