Chapter twelve
Hannah sat, cross legged and very still, on her own sofa. It was very close to being her favorite meditation and work spot. Not that she was doing that at the moment. She watched the room, smiling gently, attempting to see what was about to happen, constantly. There were a lot of people there, for an impromptu meet up for pizza and soda.
Debbie was directly next to her on the left, with Katie on the other side, bracketing her, as if to be protective. Not that anyone was a danger there that night. Not that she knew about. Lashondra was on the floor, with June sitting directly next to her. Chatting, rather amiably.
The room was a contradiction, in many ways. There was a bouncing energy to most of the people there. Megan was actually nervous, for some reason, and it played into the room rather pointedly. It took a while, about fifteen minutes, but Hannah made out some lines moving from her toward both Kate and Devya. It wasnât as strong as an action about to come, but was, instead, the chance that the woman was going to say something.
Hannah understood the idea, of course.
Softly, not meaning to, she spoke first. Soothing things, before they could be taken the wrong way.
âMegan, how are you doing?â Hannah smiled, softly and looked over at Kate, then gave a wave toward Devya. âSendra...â
Both women got the idea and looked at her suddenly, going wide eyed. Dr. Sendra, the monster, had tortured Megan Kant to death. They could pretend that it had been something less serious than that, but it truly wasnât. Magic had been used, in the Never, to bring her back. Reese as well, but the boy, for some reason, seemed to be easier with Kate and probably Devya, than his mother was.
They looked identical to the killer, which wasnât missed by either of them. Megan went running with Katie and the others though, three or four times a week. Hopefully it was helping her to move past her fear there. At the moment, that didnât seem to be too much of a thing, however.
Devya winced, and went still, the slightly frantic movements she constantly produced suddenly leaving a virtual hole in the room.
âOh... Crud. Do you need me to leave, Megan? I forgot about that, for a moment.â
Megan Kant wasnât really a mentally powerful person, in her own right. Not that Hannah had ever seen. She tended toward the nervous, and while she could be a bit shrill, or even high strung, most of the time she was just kind of shy. That didnât mean she was a bitch though, so a head shake came almost instantly.
âNo, Iâm fine. Itâs... A bit hard, but Iâll live. You didnât do anything to me. I know that.â She wiped at her brow, which had beads of sweat on it, even if the room wasnât all that hot.
Veronica looked at the scene, seeming worried over it. Enough to swallow, and seemed to be considering moving, to do something.
