Abigail didn’t know much about Cheveyo. She’d never met him in person, except when he was residing inside Dane’s body, but she did know that his power had to do with possession. He’d possessed his friend Raine’s body and of course Dane. Possession had to do with inhabiting the body, but she’d heard Cheveyo could also sense a person’s soul. He’d been able to communicate with the people he’d possessed. Could he sense her soul, even if he couldn’t see her?

She approached him in the kitchen, waving her arms and crying out. He stopped, listened for a moment, and took off down the hall. Crap. How could she show him and the others she was here? The boy returned with Cord. For a moment, Abigail recoiled until she remembered Cord wasn’t really Cord, but one of the twins disguised as the Watcher. Bonnie or Sam?

A petite Hispanic woman jogged to Cheveyo’s side, the sweet scent of sunshine and honey wafting in her wake. The scent was a dead giveaway they were all Soulkeepers, no matter how menacing the one disguised as Cord looked.

“I feel her. Right here. I can’t see her but my gift knows her,” Cheveyo said.

Thank God! He could sense her. But what could they do? They couldn’t see, or hear her.

“Can you, like, possess her or something Chevy?” the Hispanic woman said. One of the twins, she was sure.

He passed his hand through Abigail’s torso. “Not if I can’t touch her.”

Abigail’s heart dropped. So close to salvation and still caught in Lucifer’s grip. She pressed the heels of her palms into her eyes, a grown woman, crying like a child.

“Hey Bonnie, you could use the stone,” Cheveyo said, placing his hands on his hips and turning toward the Cord doppelganger.

So it was Bonnie disguised as the Watcher, which meant the other woman was Samantha.

“How can the stone help?” Bonnie asked.

“The red stone around your neck is the same one as Dane used to have, right?”

“Yeah. Malini gave it to me.”

“Well, when I was stuck inside Dane’s body, and he used the stone, when we got to the other side I was myself. Separate. With physical form. This cowboy guide who was helping us said the In Between was a manifestation of consciousness. Separate consciousness, separate reality, or some shit.”

Bonnie unbuttoned the top buttons of the dress shirt she was wearing and pulled the red stone over her head. “What do I do? Abigail’s not possessing me. How do I take her with me into the stone?”

Cheveyo rubbed his chin. “I’m not sure.”

Samantha chimed in, “Malini said you’re supposed to stare into the stone and blank your mind.”

“That will get me through, but how do I take Abigail?”

“Just because we can’t see her doesn’t mean she can’t see us,” Sam said. “Think about Jesse. He’s always there, even when he’s not.”

“So, you’re saying?”

“Let’s tell her to stare into the stone while you stare into the stone, and maybe she’ll hear us.”

Brilliant, brilliant girl, Abigail thought. She approached Bonnie’s side.
