Alice is not handling the lack of Z well. At all. Where has she gone, anyway?

How do you find a missing invisible girl?

Though immensely relieved that Z wasn't dead, Alice was still upset. Eight years of having a voice in your head makes its absence a big deal. She paced the apartment she shared with Savvy endlessly, cleaning and trying to find things to keep her hands and mind busy.

"Z?"

Alice woke up with a short scream.

"Uncle Spider?"

Z got back from the Nexus to late to catch the young grey, so he left Gabe's little calico in Alice's hands. And that's where it was this morning while the two of them waited for Savannah to awaken. Is there anything so cute as a floating kitten?

Fire and trapped!

Coming home from the Sanctuary, Alice slipped quietly into her room so as not to disturb the newest occupant, currently asleep on the sofa.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz?
