WHEN I woke up he was gone.

The police were covering Robin’s body with a sheet as the paramedics checked Gloria’s wounds. It took me a few seconds to realize that no one was paying any attention to me. “Ruber?” I asked quietly.

His voice came from just over my shoulder. “We are invisible,” he explained. “I thought it best to remove ourselves from the situation.”

I watched them load Gloria onto their paramedic gurney and push her out to the ambulance. “Is she okay?” I asked.

“She will be,” Ruber assured me.

“Good.” I tried to get up and felt a pain shoot up my back. “Oh crap!” I cried out loudly. I froze as I saw the two cops look over to where Ruber was hiding me.

“Time to leave?” Ruber asked as they began to thread their way among tables toward us.

“Definitely.”

“Close your eyes,” Ruber warned as he flared into visibility and instantly flooded the room with a blinding light. I had covered my eyes and still I saw spots as I struggled to see again. “Keep your eyes shut.” I heard Ruber say, this time much closer to me than before. I clenched them shut as a strange whine filled the area. It felt as if we were in a wind tunnel all of a sudden as a gust of air hit my face and almost blew me back onto the floor.

My ears popped and then I heard nothing.

I’m not sure how much time passed, but the next thing I knew, I felt myself fall maybe half an inch onto my ass. “You can open them now,” Ruber advised in a calm voice.

I cracked one eye open and was shocked to find myself sitting on my living room floor.

I tried to get up again but the pain was too much for me to manage. I collapsed onto my back and stared at the ceiling in pain, despairing. “How long am I going to be like this?”

“You were stabbed through your lower back less than thirty minutes ago. Assume that you will need more time than that to recover,” Ruber said, as he floated into my line of sight.

“How long before I can stand again?” I snapped, trying to not shout at him.

“The spell will require another thirty minutes before it heals you completely.”

I sighed and laid my head down and tried not to think about how Hawk had left me.
