Chapter Fourteen

“Come on,” Devlin said.

“Where are we going?”

“To those sites.”

“Palms Springs and Desert Hot Springs, but what about the hunters and helping keep things safe in the city?” Eva asked.

“I’m not sure this is over. We’ve got to take a look at ground zero or zeros. Where the blasts have been generated. We have to know for sure.”

“Will we even be able to get there?” she asked. “This kind of quake would have an impact on roadways. It’s probably crazy out there. Even if we can find the spots, will you be able to tell if the cause was deliberate?”

He nodded. “I will. Demolitions expert, remember?”

“How can I forget.” She shook her head. “You blew open the underground entrance to my aunt’s cavern in New York.”

“Yeah.”

“Still, what would it matter?”

“It might. I won’t know if I can do anything to stop any aftermath until I look at the sites. And I’m going to assume whatever was done might not be over.”

She nodded and followed him back upstairs to a darkened kitchen. “Damnit! The electricity is out up here.”

“Yeah, are you on a backup generator downstairs?” he asked.

“Yes. We’re off the grid there with enough juice to run for a year. Maybe more if I conserve. If the electricity comes back on, then I can siphon electricity to recharge my generator.”

“Impressive. You all think of everything.”

Eva nodded. It also helped to have a seer who prepared them for just such an occurrence whenever it happened. They didn’t know when, but fifty years ago, the seer for the Chroniclers had predicted an earthquake would annihilate all of Southern California destroying most of the state and have a far reaching impact on the surrounding states. In that respect, the house had been prepared and the Chronicles were safe. But in other respects, they hadn’t been prepared. Still other than the mirror, a few broken pictures and statues, she couldn’t see any other damage.

Devlin followed her to her bedroom but just waited by the door for her.

“I’ll be ready in five,” she told him, going into her walk-in closet, so she could get changed and armed. Some of her shoes from a top shelf had fallen to the floor but she stepped over them and headed toward the back wall. She had a safe with her firearms in there along with a satchel. She took out two of the firearms, one she put in the sleeve at her back the other she placed in the satchel with a few extra rounds for her gun and a knife. She stuck another knife in her boot. When she walked out of her closet, she was ready to do battle.

Devlin remained standing in the doorway to her bedroom with his arms folded, watching her. “Ready?”

They went down the hallway toward the front door, but she still had questions. “Even if we find out the quake and the release of the magma were deliberately caused, then what? Can you stop it?”

“I might be able to stop the aftershocks or make it so they’re not so strong.
