Chapter 30 page 25 ~ Let’s check in with our good friends
Evening — a call between two cities.
Bianca: Hey, Patrick! Is everyone with you? How did it go?
Patrick: Hi! I think we won!
We split up — I’m at Timothy’s place. You could probably tell by how I’m Skyping from Timothy’s phone.
Timothy: There was a successful jailbreak of the last two kidnapped Beings. Miranda’s rendezvousing with Dr. Gaillard to patch their Contracts.
And while Reseda and Kara Lynn were providing backup for the flashy distracting shapeshifter fight . . . Jany and I snuck around and packed up all her stuff. Also — gave away the phone Walker got her.
We’re getting her on a flight back to the UK first thing in the morning. With the help of my — uh — friend! A work friend. I trust her. She’s already been good about my gender . . . stuff. And on a practical note, she has a car.
Bianca: “First thing in the morning” . . . so is your Trustworthy Work Friend With A Car staying there overnight?
Timothy: Shhh! Not yet.
Hopefully they have a way out of any Contracts of the Human Legal sort that Jany may have signed. Or did Walker not take that precaution because she has, ironically, so much Faith in the Master-Sworn-Magic-Being sort?
The fight clause must have been there for a reason. Hubris hubris hubris and all that.
If Jany is going back to the UK what is she going to do for money/where is she going to live? I assume she won’t be going back to her parents since she won’t allow Kara Lyn to be a dancer anymore.
I think the idea is they’re gonna try and swing a job for Kara Lynn as a dragons… Or a lizard-woman from the dawn of time. Or a charismatic talking gecko…
