CHAPTER 1.

No one would hear it....

It was a very early morning. An ordinary morning: people waking up to the sounds of alarms, to the seldom honks of passing cars, to parents urging children to get up for school. Near the shorelines of the beach of Miami, a hotel stood quietly, gently stirring with its tired residents who arrived only the night before.

...A scream.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! NOOOOOOOOOO! You can't do this to me! NO!"

A struggle.

Man and wife, chasing each other around the small, nearly cramped room, at times breaking the figurines on display or allowing framed pictures to crash to the floor. They took little notice of the damages. The woman fled her husband, or so she tried. The man pursued his woman.

A phone ringing, in an already bustling office downtown. A worried officer rushing his colleagues to finish their coffee and get to the hotel.

Blaring sirens.

No one heard those things. It was a very routine morning. Nothing out of the ordinary, for such an extraordinary town.

What they saw, however, betrayed them.

Blasts of bright light from within a high hotel window. Glass breaking, at one point; a window shattering to bits.

If only they could see inside this room. What they would see!

"Zick, stay focused. You can trust me, okay? It's me, Elena! What's wrong with you?" By now she looked exasperated, and her heightening tone didn't help conceal the fear she held in. She took another step backwards, and her foot hit the wall. She was cornered. "Zick?"

Zick, arms outstretched and sweating profusely. His eyes out of focus. "Elena," he said, the voice that came out not quite his own. He made a big step, nearly leapt at his terrified wife. He saw her eyes, but recognized nothing in it. "Elena," he repeated.

In another instant, she was dead.
