A/N: Sorry about the wait (kind of). Well, here's from Veronica's perspective. I was worried that I would have no clue what to do, and then the next word on the list was sleep. Hopefully I did a decent job on it aside from its short length.


I couldn't believe that I had been asleep for two years. I'd missed out on so much. My little girls weren't exactly so little anymore. I wish I had been able to be with them. I confess that now whenever I go to sleep I worry that I might not wake up for a long time, or even wake up at all. Now I sleep and I dream about my children, about what might happen while I'm not there.

However unpleasant sleeping is now, I must say that I was happy to be in Ferryport Landing when I woke up. Of course my husband didn't like being here at all and one of the first things he did was decide that we were leaving immediately. I was against that, but I couldn't do much about it. I think maybe too much sleep made him cranky.

I was glad to be here, finally awake and spending time with my daughters, even though while I was asleep, the world went absolutely insane, not that it was normal before, or that Ferryport Landing had ever been any other way. It just got much more… extreme in its dangers. I suppose things change when you sleep. I just wish they hadn't changed so much.


A/N: You know the drill. Here's the quote: "We'll keep you safe in the jungle forevermore… That's what friends are for."
