Abby woke up to find herself feeling slightly miffed. She was in a car, gently rumbling along the road. It took her a while to figure out where she was, but knew they were somewhere close to the ARC. She groggily looked around to see Connor and Jenny either side of her and Becker in the passenger seat. Cutter was driving, obviously. He was the only one who could stay awake long enough.

"Hi" she managed to croak out, her voice had been underused.

"Hi, finally awake then" he said, smiling into the rear view mirror. She laughed as a response as Connor stirred and woke up.

"Abby, hi" he managed to say before Abby hugged him.

"Thank you, Connor"

"For what?"

"For not dying on me. For finding me. For saving me. Ow." she flinched, pain flooding back through her. She was still smiling though.

Finally back at the ARC, Abby was sitting down, leg in a cast, carefully rested on another chair. She was starting to regret ever falling over. While the others were out dealing with the baby future predators, she was doing paperwork. 'I mean, paperwork. Really' she had remembered her reaction. She wished she had taken time off. But now it was too late. Now she was stuck there.

She thought she saw the lights flicker and looked up. They weren't even on. She then saw an explosion of light and an anomaly appeared. Nothing prepared her for what happened next.

Helen.

She blinked hard to make sure she wasn't asleep. She wasn't. she wished she was, on top of everything else.

"Nick, where is he?" she questioned.

"Well, I don't know, do I!" Abby snapped back, knowing full well Helen knew he wasn't there.

"Ooo, decided to be moody today, have we?" she retorted as she dragged Abby to her feet. Abby struggled to get free, but knew she couldn't do anything. Pain suddenly shot through her as Helen stamped on her ankle. She let out an ear-splitting shriek as the cast shattered.

She slumped back to the ground and felt Helen grip onto her collar and drag her off. She saw the others come in just in time to see her get dragged off. She looked at then before the shimmering anomaly took over her vision.
