Abel rushed in only to see the shadow vanish from the window.

"Seal the hospital!" He roared. "Catch that damn woman!"

Abel unlocked the door of the utility room when they reached the dimly lit backyard.

He flicked on the switch only to find Emmeline curled up on a tattered couch sleeping soundly.
