Prologue
A/N : Okay, I've never tried to write for Sanctuary before, so I really hope I got the characters right!
"So, how was the trip?" Will grinned at Henry. "Find anything good?"
"Magnus told you?!" Henry moaned, but then started to laugh. "Just tell me Kate doesn't know where we really were—I'll never live it down!"
"My lips are sealed," Will laughed. "By the way, Magnus said we have a visitor coming?"
"Yeah, her name's Casey. Met her a few years ago and she's pretty cool," Henry answered. "She kinda works with the Sanctuary network from time to time, but cities really aren't her thing."
"She's an Abnormal?" Will asked with some concern. Many of his experiences with Abnormals had been…less than pleasant.
"Not to worry, she's very sweet," Henry quickly added.
"She's also very late," Magnus put in as she walked into the lab. "Has there been any communication from her at all?"
"None," Henry frowned. "And that's not her usual at all. Case is so on-time you can set your watch by her."
"That is true, but perhaps she ran into some kind of trouble," Magnus said softly. Hesitantly she asked, "Has she tried to contact you directly?"
"Not a peep," Henry said slowly. He knew what Magnus might ask him to do and he wasn't thrilled about the idea. Still, Casey was his friend and one of the few beings on the planet who really understood him. "Maybe I can listen in on the packsong and find her there."
"That may not be necessary, Henry." Magnus spoke gently. "Casey is well able to look after herself, and Nightshadows won't allow anything to happen to her."
"I wouldn't be so sure of that." Tesla stood in the doorway, his expression grim. "You need to see the latest bulletin from the Sanctuary network because things just got ugly out there."
Yeah, it's short, but there is more written. If you want to see more you know what to do!
