Author's Note: After reading Vesper's Rising, we were all saddened to see that our dear Dan Cahill has unfortunately grown more mature. So that inspired me to write this:
During the fast-paced, thrilling chases, he had longed for this- the safe, isolated aquarium full of children drifting along like lazy fish. This place without danger, of nothing but gossip and geography books. Now that he was here…
He had grown accustomed to restless days, such haste, never peace, the unending chase. His heart beat in double time. His mind raced. He was a fish out of water.
Once friends, now strangers, trying to talk and joke, repelled by the intangible force field around him. Had they all changed? Had his whole world changed in mere weeks?
Or had he?
Author's Note: Sad, Dan being non-Dan-ish, isn't it? Let's all hope he comes back with more immaturity and ninja antics in Cahills vs. Vespers, all right? :)
