I know all of your are hoping and wishing for more chapter.  It really IS a weekly update thing.  (I've learned that most authors update at will, at least you know that Friday I update, no matter what!). This is the last 5 weeks of school, I have weekly tests, 12-15 page research papers to do (3 of them), work, and my wife hasn't been feeling well so add in that doctors visits, not sleeping, and worrying and - well - writing is far, far, FAR back on my list of things to do.  I do hope my loyal and steadfast readers understand that.  Thank you guys!

            "Tired.  All we do is sleep, eat, and lay around.  They could at least bring us some books," grumbles Abby. 

            "Books?  Like school books?" snaps Tegan.  "Are you kidding me?"

            "Yeah, I mean when we merge are we going to remember what our alter selves did?" asks Abby.  "We'll be behind on school work and stuff, at least we'd have something to do."

            "You're worried about school work?  You are a bigger geek than I gave you credit for," snorts Tegan. 

            "We're never going to merge," whispers Sydney.  The anger festers hotly inside of her.  It surges, coloring her vision and her thoughts.

            "What?" says Abby.

            "I said, we're never going to merge!" She stands up, the blanket falling off her and pooling at her feet.  "She's never going to stop!  She's going to keep right on going and she's going to get what she wants!"

            Her voice, strong and deep, echoes on the cool walls of the cave.  Abby eases upright and Tegan takes her hands away from the back of her own neck.  "Syd....," whispers Tegan.

            "No, you don't get it!  You don't understand!  She won't stop!  She's going to be relentless and it won't matter who she takes down to do it, she'll keep at it, until – until she gets what she wants," screams Sydney.
