"So what did Thomas say?" Chris asks the next morning over breakfast

"He was really happy" Izzy says buttering her toast

"That's good" Chris eats a spoonful of cereal and Izzy nods as she has her mouth full

"Well we better get going if you don't want to be late" Chris says finishing his cereal in a hurry and rinsing his plate. Izzy grabs her coat, changes shoes and is ready.

"Bye have a great day!" Chris says and drives off Izzy accompanies Ms. Potts to various contract signing for a new proyect tghat she's working on, clean energy. That alone takes up practically the entire day and what's left of it Ms. Potts is stuck in meeting and Izzy with paper work. When she arrives home she walks Noodles while Chris showers and then they eat dinner and watch a movie.

They fall asleep halfway through it and wake up at midnight to go to their own beds. The next day work is normal, a little bit heavy but not enough to overwhelm Isabel

"I'm so tired" Jamie whines at the end of the day stretching and popping her back

"I know this week was really tough" Izzy rubs her neck and rolls her shoulders trying to losen them up

"Wanna go for some drinks?" Jamie asks eyeing her phone

"Can't I have a thing tonight" Isabel apologizes

"That's alright" Jamie says smiling at her briefly before returning to her phone. When they reach the place where Chris is going to pick Isabel up, Jamie lokks closer at her phone and scrolls rapidly

"What? What happened?" Isabel asks trying to read over her but the womans curls are in the way. When Jamie finishes reading the news she looks up

"Three men were killed two days ago, they've only found the bodies this afternoon" Jamie shuffers and so does Isabel

"Who were they?" Izzy asks

"No one important, druggies and drunks apparently" Jamie shifts the phone angle so Isabel can look at the three pictures of the men who were killed and her heart skips a beat... those are the men who tries to rape her. Isabel's breathing catches and her heart beats faster than ever

"Isabel are you alright?" Jamie asks laying a hand on her friends shoulder only to have her recoil from the touch "Isabel!"

But Isabel isn't listening tge only thing she can hear is her blood pumping everytime faster and faster, her vision clouds over and her legs shake. Those men are dead, she can't really remember their faces just glimpses of an eye, a nose, a lock of hair but when Jamiw showed her the pictures she was certain. How? She didn't know but she knew that those were the men who almost raped her. Those were the men that beat her and held her down in the deserted street. Those are the men that plague her dreams and make her cringe when someone touches her. Those are the men that almost destroyed her, almost broke her.

"Isabel!" the cry comes from far away she can barely hear it. Someone is shaking her, she tries to focuse but it's so hard

"Isabel!" a different new voice calls out to her this voice pulls at her pulls her to the surface. She blinks a few times and her vision clears, she's lying on the ground her head on a budled up scarf that smells faintly of jasmine, she turns her head and sees Jamie's worried face looking down at her, tears briming her eyes

"What happened?" Izzy croaks out

"I don't know you just fainted" Jamie says and the tears roll down her cheeks

"How long has passed?" she asks

"Not long about five minutes" the other voice says she turns and finds Bruce kneeling beside her, he tales her wrist to check her pulse but she yanks it away
