CHAPTER 10

♫ … a light inside our universe … ♫

DESPITE THE GROWING nausea and the blurry vision Selina managed to work the door open enough to escape the confines of the coppery room. She took a few steps in the one direction she could go: forward, down the long hallway. Tunnel, she thought. Up, she needed to go up. She used the wall for support and shuffled her way along the corridor, listening with all her might for voices and trying to focus on where she was going. There was an elevator somewhere nearby, she was sure.

The nausea didn’t pass and the fuzzy vision worsened. She kept one hand against the rough wall for balance. Voices floated in eerie syllables around her. She stopped and listened. Klaqin words. Strange consonants. Clucks. A low whistle.

Then English.

Alex’s voice.

She pushed herself off the wall and took a single step forward before collapsing in a heap.

With her head tilted sideways and her legs doubled beneath her, she lay virtually senseless on the cold stone floor. The hand with the thumb ring trembled and knocked against the rough floor. If she could pull that stupid ring off, maybe, she thought, everything would return to normal and she’d be able to see straight, walk straight, find Alex.

“Cue the knight in shining armor,” she whispered, slurring all the syllables. She tried for a stronger, better declaration. “Cue the knight.”

She lifted her head, scarcely enough strength returning, and tugged at the ring. “The knight!” Her exclamation came out loud enough, she hoped, to reach her boyfriend’s ears.

And loud enough to bring that toady green doctor around the corner swinging a light too bright for her eyes.
