Amanda was still half asleep and found herself in Finn's arms, shaken as she had been reliving the attack in a nightmare… she lifted her head up out of instinct when she heard yelling.

"You've got no proof, Sasha!"

"Oh really?! Cameras are all around the damn arena, you pint sized terror! You really would resort to rendering Mandy blind?!"

"Can't you two see that people are trying to sleep still?!" Dean yelled, Sasha and Alexa turning to see him in his pajamas.

"Everyone is freaked out about what happened, everyone except this bitch and Rollins!" Sasha responded.

"I didn't do anything wrong-" Alexa shouted, jumping when the door slammed open and seeing Amanda.

"If I lose my eyesight permanently and find out you had a hand in it, I'm filing assault charges against you and Seth. Do I make myself clear, Alexa?" Amanda responded, Finn trying to calm her down before Dean saw Lori.

"That and I'll stun her ass from here to Timbuktu." Lori said.

"What in the hell is going on out here? I only got three hours worth of sleep." Becky replied as she walked over.

"Stay out of it, Becky! And who the hell are you?!" Alexa responded, glaring at Lori.

"Lori Zayba. And if you don't stop scowling at me like that, you'll find that your very next blink puts you in the ward!" Lori answered. She'd taken the time to read a few things about the people she'd be around, and some of the things about Alexa had made her far from happy towards her.

Alexa left and Becky walked over to Amanda, the two hugging and Amanda calming down again.

"It'll get better… just stay strong." Becky said quietly as they let go and Finn helped guide Amanda back into the room, Amanda instinctively entwining her fingers with his.

"My eyes still hurt…" Amanda whispered. "All I want to do is just… take these bandages off and try to look out the window, to see everything around me… we never realise how much we depend on something until it's gone." She said as Finn held her in his arms.

In the lobby, Seth had his duffel bag zipped up… and then turned to see Roman glaring at him after he walked over.

"Care to explain why you possibly rendered Mandy into permanent blindness?! This can't just be about the damn storyline and she damn well didn't betray you!" Roman growled.

"You're not dumb pal, you figure it out!" Seth responded, turning towards the exit only to see Lori stood there. "How the… hell did you get there?!"

"We all have our secrets, right? He asked you… so you tell yours and I'll tell mine." Lori responded.

"Secret, what secret?" Seth replied.

"How I got here so quickly. I was up on the 4th floor." Lori explained.

"Well, how?" Seth asked.

"Nuh-uh. You first, what in the hell possessed you to assault and possibly blind your co-worker? I've studied up, she's been wrestling since her teen years, why try to take away her only source of income? Jealousy is a really terrible thing, especially when you're fighting over a woman you don't want but also don't want near someone else, someone who cares deeply about her." Lori responded, Seth laughing humorlessly. "What? It's true, he helped her feel strong again after you distanced yourself from her. You're no longer that shoulder for Mandy to cry on or friend to talk to after a bad day and you hate it." She said, Seth turning angry.

"She's the one who changed, I'm the same as I always was! And anyway… you sussed me out so I'll try to do the same, you're a twin and you're playing some sort of double act trick!" Seth responded, Lori staring at him before she couldn't hold it and burst out laughing.

"Damn it, that's as bad as being called a witch… hey, credits to you pal, that was a damn good laugh." Lori said between laughter before she stood up straight… and took her Starfleet insignia combadge out of her pocket, holding it up in front of her. "Computer, transport me five points left." She said… before blue streaks of light moved vertically around her while a number of brighter, bigger lights flashed, and she faded out of view… a few seconds after she was gone, in the same pattern of light, she reappeared about 10 feet to her left, and put the badge back away.

"What did you put in my coffee, D-Von?" Bubba Ray Dudley asked, having trouble believing what he witnessed.

"Nothing, I swear." D-Von responded.

"No spiked coffee, gentlemen. Now which room is Mandy in? Want to go check on her." Lori replied.

"5th floor, room 510." D-Von answered, Lori heading up there.

Amanda was listening to the collective sounds of the city once the window was open, smiling when she heard the birds chirping.

"Nothing like hearing them early in the morning… their wings fluttering in the breeze, their little voices. Much better than angry co-workers screaming at each other." Amanda said as Finn sat down and wrapped his arms around her shoulders for a few seconds. "Now remind me why were heading out again and are my clothes on backwards or inside out?" She asked after Finn had finished securing clean bandages around Amanda's eyes and upper part of her head… but he noticed that she had wrapped her right hand around his left one in nervousness.

"You did try to dress yourself with your sight shot. And we're going somewhere to escape prying eyes for a couple hours of peace and quiet." Finn replied, his hand turning over and also closing around hers.

Amanda nodded and the two left… when they were at a park, she heard it.

"Little rabbit up towards the right, running around." Amanda said, Finn seeing a white and tan rabbit.

At the same time, Lori was also walking around and ran into Paige.

"Hey, how is she? No one's saying much." Paige said.

"Her sight is better… but now her head is clearer and she's still no better on thought about Seth, and I didn't expect it to be either." Lori replied.

"He can be damn bitter… but none of us realised how bad." Paige responded.

Lori knew something had to change.
