Chapter 23

Now

“Ok seriously, when the hell did we get an iPad?” I asked

“Oh, this old thing?” He pushed the sleep button and closed the case.

“So, all those times I had said out loud that I missed T.V…” I asked, hands outstretched toward the iPad.

“You were mentioning your night?” he segued.

“Dude! I’ve had the craziest day.”

“Night,” he corrected.

“Oh, I’m sorry. Did you want to tell the story that happened to me and not you?”

He didn’t respond, only glared in annoyance.

I recapped the past few evenings with Depweg basically saving my life, the demon terrorizing downtown, and Locke showing up. I left out the part where I was swindled into getting a tanning membership, so my car would be ready in time—which didn’t even matter in the end! I need a watch.

“Let me get this straight, John. While being filmed, by an officer no less, you showed off your supernatural speed?” He paused, considering. “The other members of the supernatural society are not going to take this lightly, you realize.”

“It crossed my mind. But honestly, almost all of them have fled to different planes.”

“So, it’s true,” Da looked at the ground in deep contemplation.

“What’s true?” I asked.

He continued to stare at the ground, not answering.

“Da, tell me what’s going on. Now!” I demanded.

“I must go.” He folded in on himself and retreated to a different plane, leaving behind a micro shockwave as the air rushed to fill the void.

Staring at the place where he had just been, I said “Abra-ca-fucking-dabra.”

One of these nights I was going to get Da to teach me that trick, damn faeries.

I decided to take the rest of the night off and catch up on some reading. Climbing into my iron fortress of solitaire, I felt it best to read some more Sandman Slim where the hero gets to do whatever he feels like, good or bad, and doesn’t give a damn what anyone else thinks. Helps to relieve the stress of the night.

It’s a well-known fact that the best sleep comes from procrastination. Have a report that’s due in a few days? Take a nap!

It didn’t take long before I drifted off into a deep sleep.
