Chapter Eight

We’re outside the theater complex. On the road, because we can’t get closer. The police and fire department have it blocked off.

Marius strides back to us, using his powers to cut through the crowd.

“It was the tour,” he says when he arrives, after doubtless charming an officer or firefighter into talking to him. “The Lisa Lake tour reached the theater for the big reveal. The guide was walking them through it, and the lights went out. The locals figured that was part of the show—recreating what happened that night. But the lights were only supposed to dim. They went out, and someone spotted a girl in the auditorium. A girl dressed in sixties clothing. Then she disappeared, and the seat where she was standing caught on fire.”

“A ghost that spontaneously combusted?” Hope says.

He shrugs. “There was an alleged ghost, and there was a definite fire. It’s out now, and they’re interviewing the tour folks to figure out what happened.”

Kennedy exhales. “Okay, well, that was some unexpected excitement, and I lost my line, but the night is young and the coffee is hot. We should get back to Ani and Jonathan—”

As if hearing his name, Jonathan appears, his head bobbing over the crowd as he makes his way over.

“Everything okay at the shop?” Kennedy says. “Please tell me you’ve come because we’re flooded with customers and you need help.”

“Sorry, K,” he says. “I came to say they shut us down.”

“What?”

Before he can answer, another siren sounds, this one an alarm. He waits until it shuts off.

“Chief Salazar is shutting down all the businesses along Bishop,” he says. “They’ve had four security alerts so far. No sign of trouble, just alarms and sprinklers going off. She has no idea what’s happening, but she isn’t taking chances. Everyone’s closed for the rest of the night.”
