“Why did they have a meeting with just you?” Jack sat on the opposite side of the room from Claire, his feet up on her table again.

“Get your legs down,” she commanded from her bed.

Jack sighed but twirled the chair around so that he was facing them and put his feet on the floor.

“So why weren’t we included?” Jack asked again. “That seems a bit unscrupulous to me.”

Marissa eyed him. “Unscrupulous? That’s an awfully big word for you. Did you read the dictionary this morning or something?”

“Don’t forget, Sissy,” Jack said. “I was accepted at Yale. Now, stop avoiding the question. Why weren’t we invited?”

“They didn’t want…I don’t know...” Claire wasn’t completely comfortable with the position she was now in. She wasn’t going to outright lie to either of them, but she knew she couldn’t divulge all the information.

“I guess they just didn’t want too many voices,” Claire finished. “It doesn’t matter anyway. Frank is the one going down there.”

“That’s something else.” Jack leaned forward in his chair. “Why are they sending him alone down there? That seems dangerous after everything I’ve seen on TV.”

Claire nodded and laid back on her bed. She was lying sideways and her feet to the floor. “That’s what I said, too. They didn’t send him, though. He volunteered.”

“Frank?” Marissa asked. “I don’t believe it.”

Claire nodded. “He’s leaving soon. Tonight or tomorrow.”

“Why?” Marissa asked.

Claire closed her eyes, feeling emotions coming on again. “Because he cares about me, about us. We’re in a tough spot, and he might be the only person who can help.”

“He’s a good little green dude,” Jack responded. The room went quiet for a second, all of them feeling the same fear. They’d all seen the news reports and knew what was happening in the south. “He’ll be fine. I’m sure of it.”

Claire knew Jack was trying to make her feel better, and she also knew she couldn’t be showing all of these emotions. They had things they needed to do over the next week or two. When Frank did return, they had to be ready.

She sat up and looked at the two of them. “We’ve been taking this seriously, but perhaps not as seriously as we should. That changes today. We’re going back to the funhouse and training again. You both in?”

Marissa nodded.

Jack stood up. “Hell yeah. I’m not letting that little green monkey kill more ghosts or witches than me when we get down there.”

We can’t take it seriously if everything isn’t out in the open, Claire thought. “Marissa, it’s time to talk about it.”

Jack raised his eyebrows. “Talk about what?”

Marissa looked at the floor between her feet but remained silent.

“Talk about what?” Jack repeated. His eyebrows were still raised as he turned to Claire. “One of you going to tell me?”

“It’s not my story to tell,” Claire responded. “Plus, I don’t know anything. Not really. Marissa told me a little bit, but not enough to matter. Now, though, we all have to hear it, because we have to get serious about training.
