Lindsay, Moira, Luke, Harry and Pete awoke in a heap on the floor of the den, the chalk circle with the runes smudged beneath them.
Pete was the first to recover. Seeming none the worse for his little adventure, and completely unaware of the danger he'd been in, he stood up, grabbing Luke's arm and yanking him up. "Let's play game. I be da Shadowman and I chase you and catch you and eat you!"
Luke groaned. "Not now. We just played the full life version of that."
Suddenly, the door lock rattled. Everyone tensed up, prepared for the worst.
Susanne, Cat's mother and Luke and Moira's stepmom, walked into the room.
Her eyes took in the beaten and worn children, then the chalk markings on the floor. "Where's Cat?" She asked in a low, deadly voice.
Luke stumbled for an answer.
Susanne turned her heel, yelling down the stairs to her husband.
"Zach! Get here now!"
Cat's bed was comfortable. More comfortable than she remembered. Not that she was complaining. She just didn't remember the pillows being so soft, or the sheets so silky.
She could have sworn it hadn't been this large, she thought sleepily as she stretched lazily.
Then it all came back to her and she sat up with a jolt, eyes whipping open.
This was not her bed.
This was not her room.
This was not her home.
