I have to know.

Sifting through the evidence on my desk, I look for any kind of sign for what I'm looking for.

It just doesn't make any sense. Why was that cat following me around for so long? Why did it lead me to all those weird places? And why did it end with the Pentagram on Pop's diner, to her, and that weird girl who came out of nowhere and the vision she gave us?

What does all of it have in common?

I sit back, taking a break and letting my head rest from all the possibilities.

It just doesn't make any sense. The most obvious reasons don't make any sense.

All of the sudden, I hear someone come in to the Blue and Gold and I look up to see her standing there with an uncertain look on her face. She quickly covers it up with a smile as she walks in with all her characteristic confidence.

She has a very nice smile.

"Working hard B?"

That makes me smile back.

"As always."

"What are you looking for?"

"An answer."

"An answer to what?"

I turn my attention back to the stuff on my table.

"What happened to us."

"You mean with the girl and her cat? Why?"

What does she mean?

I look at her, confused.

"Because... I mean, don't you want to know what it was about? How she did it?"

There's a moment of uncertainty back on her face before it disappears again.

"Not really."

"Why not?"

She makes her way over and sits on the edge of the table near me. It makes me shift a little.

I still don't know how to feel around her after all that's happened. The whole rave thing, then the Santa incident, and then this whole vision thing? It's made hanging out with her a little weird. Maybe if I figure this out I won't have to feel that way around her.

"Because it was weird... if there's anything I have learned from everything with G&G and all the weirdness is that going there always ends badly."

"So you don't want to know?"

"Of course I want to know Betty, but what if it leads somewhere... somewhere we don't want to go?"

I look at her for a few moments.

What does she mean by somewhere we don't want to go? Is it the weird vision thing or what we saw in it that she's worried about?

"And what if it's all just a hoax or something? What if the girl did something to us to make us see things? Wouldn't you want to know?"

She watches me for a few moments.

"Wait, did you see that too?"

Did she see something?

"I saw something when she touched me. What did you see?"

Again she watches me for a moment.

It's like she's afraid to tell me what she saw. Was it different from what I saw?
