A few days passed without event, Julie tried her utmost to focus and clear her mind to no avail. Leo, both future and present had decided they had waited long enough and it was time to return to the lair to survey the damage and clean up.

Julie shuffled along a few steps behind the pack as they made their way through the sewers, she was both disappointed and frustrated with her lack of success in locating Mikey. She sighed and kicked a small rock what was the point of having visions if all they did was show you nightmares of the mistakes you haven't even made yet.

The damage to the lair was surprisingly minimal, the future Leo said his brother probably added a few items to the fire to create more smoke, after all he wanted them out not dead.

A few hours and several bottles of fabric freshener later the lair was starting to shape up, there was no damage what so ever to her and Mikey's room aside from a few items that were knocked over in their hurry to leave.

She picked up the items and placed them back in there rightful spots and then with a heavy sigh she flopped back on the bed and stared at the ceiling. She no longer felt guilty or confused just disappointed.

It had come down to this, everyone was counting on her and she just couldn't do it. She tried to summon up images with every free moment she had and nothing came, control sat just out of her reach laughing as she struggled to reach it.

"Why me?" She asked the crack in the ceiling before closing her eyes, but the crack didn't answer instead it sat as silently as it ever had and watched her quickly drift into a fitful sleep.

He was touching her, roughly. Rubbing her too hard , she couldn't be enjoying this, and yet she seemed to.

Whores were like that though. Julie couldn't say how she knew the woman was one but she did, maybe it was who was touching her or maybe it was the striking resemblance to herself.

Either way she was certain Mikey hadn't romanced this women into his bed, not with the way he was touching her. He was holding her down now taking her as roughly as he had touched her, she was moaning and panting but Julie couldn't hear her. In fact she couldn't hear anything it was as if someone had turned down the volume on this vision.

This time it was a vision, not a dream. This time she wasn't participating or seeing through the eyes of someone who was, it was just her standing unnoticed watching.

When he finished he rolled off the too skinny woman and tossed her a small roll of bills, definitely a whore.

The woman counted her money and then tucked it into the bra she was still wearing. She smirked and began to speak, Julie still couldn't hear her but from her expression the words we not kind.

She laughed and Julie knew it was at Mikey's expense, she knew it even before he hit her. He was on his feet now stalking towards the woman but Julie was already leaving, someone was pulling her back.

"Hey…. Lazy….. WAKE UP!" Mikey's voice boomed above her.

""m up 'm up" She mumbled sitting up. Had she done it? Was that the present? She didn't think so, it hadn't felt like it.

She shook her head, damn that one had been close.

"Come on" Mikey said pulling her to her feet with a broad grin " Were gonna go get lunch"

She smiled as he pulled her forward and rested his chin on top of her head, he wrapped his arms around her and swayed them back and forth a little.

"Yeah yeah" She chuckled pushing her vision aside for now " Heaven forbid your stomach be kept waiting.
