Molly needed to tell the girls what had happened with Dr. Meyer. She wanted them to know that she was at least trying to make things the way they should be. Molly went searching for them a few minutes before lights-out time. All the girls except for Tress and Isleen were gathered in the rec room. Molly could hear the laughter before she entered. It sounded nice. She liked that they could laugh now before the darkness of the curses took over.

Scarlett and Drusilla were in the middle of a game of chess. The other girls lounged around covered in blankets. Allison stared at the ceiling, making strange movements with her fingers. The room fell silent when Molly entered.

“Ms. Dillinger,” Marina said. “Is everything okay?”

For Marina to ask that, Molly must have looked worrisome. She tried to rectify that as she closed the door behind her. Molly took a seat on the arm of the sofa, and the girls moved in closer. “I just had a discussion with Dr. Meyer about Allison’s meds.” Allison was still focused on the ceiling, and Molly hated talking about her as if she wasn’t there. She hated even more that Allison had no idea what was going on. “He refuses to lessen the dosage. He was even a little angry that I’d even suggested it.”

The girls groaned. Gretchen stood and paced the room. “We need to know exactly what is in the medicine he’s giving her. We need to know the side effects and what’s putting her in this trancelike stake. Dru?”

All eyes went to her. Scarlett noticed Molly’s look of confusion. “Dru is our resident scientist-doctor-in-training. If you want to know anything about chemistry or the human body or the wonders of the scientific world, Dru’s your girl.”

Dru smiled slyly. “I don’t know. I’ve seen the names of the medicines he gives her, and I’ve never heard of them. I’ve looked them up in my books, and they’re not in them. I even tried to look them up online, but nothing. I’ve even sent messages for Jack to look, but he’s come up with nothing.”

“So, we have to get the pills,” Oriana said. “If we can get our hands on those pills, Dru can for sure figure out what they’re made of.”

Dru nodded. “Yeah. Should be easy.”

Marina stretched. “But how are we going to do that? Dr. Meyer stands right there and shoves the damn pills down her throat, and he keeps the rest locked in his office. How would we get our hands on one?”

The room fell silent as everyone tried to think of a solution. Molly had an idea. “We need to create a distraction. Just when Dr. Meyer is going to deliver Allison’s dosage, we need something chaotic to happen.”

Most of the girls nodded. “Okay, but like what?” Jolie asked.

Just then the door of the rec room banged open. Isleen stood in the doorway, staring at them accusingly as if they had been caught doing something wrong. Tress looked over her shoulder, smiling.
