Uh-oh, Bella's gotten modern...

The lane was silent but for the faint sounds of sirens blocks away; wasn't it the same for every city? Few ventured out at an hour so late, and certainly no one on the little Chiswick street. None, that is, until an electrical pulse lit the damp pavement like a firework, and was replaced with a young woman.
She stole across the street to a house she'd visited only once; that one time was enough, however, to know it well. The circumstances had been more than spectacular. She knocked hastily on the door, and it flew open after several moments to reveal an old man in pajamas and a stocking cap.
"Rose!" he exclaimed in surprise.
GERONIMO!
The brief teaser for the upcoming story can be found here: youtube .com/watch?v=SncRXunQB30 (I put a space between 'youtube' and '.com', so it would go through, just remove that space to view.
Enjoy!
XOXO,
Bella
