No Boundaries

Prologue

Elizabeth Webberwoke up in the morning with a particularly uneasy feeling. Something was off. She could tell. But what?

Nevertheless, she got out of bed to get ready for work. She had spoken to Bobbi a few days ago about returning to her job as a waitress at Kelly's, much to the chagrin of her husband, Ric Lansing.

She walked down the stairs and into the kitchen. Before she could sit down at the table she suddenly felt a near blinding pain behind her eyes.

"Oh!"

The pain was gone as quickly as it had come but she didn't feel up to taking any chances today.

"Elizabeth, is something wrong?"

She looked up to see her husband, Ric, stroll in from the living room, looking the least bit worried.

"I think I'm fine, RIc, but do you think you could call Bobbi for me and tell her that I won't be in to work today. I'm going to have to start tomorrow instead."

"Hey, don't worry about it, it's no problem at all. I'll call her for you as soon as I get into work, alright?"

"Thanks, honey, this is a huge help to me."

He simply smiled, kissed her on the forehead, and strode out the dor.

Elizabeth decided to lie down on the couch instead of walking back upstairs to her bed.

She couldn't sleep. The reason was obvious. Ric had left the livingroom lighting on. This room was almost in the complete center of the house so there was very little natural lighting. She got up to flick the lamp switch near the fireplace. She tripped on the rug and reached for the cabinet door to try to regain her balance. The door swung open and when Elizabeth had completely composed herself she noticed a smal, white button on the inside of the cabinet. Without hesitation, she pushed it quickly. The quiet sound of something scraping lightly across the floor met her ears. She turned slowly to observe a disgruntled Carly,

"Oh, thank God you found us!"
