Owl pulled on his leash. The man at the counter had told them which taxi Bookie had taken. The taxi was to be back in town in three days. Only then would they know where Bookie had gone.
Rain went up to the counter and checked in for two nights. They trudged up the stairs, and the girls flopped on their beds. Shadow's eyes solidified, and Owl phased to his normal self. Then they flopped on the other bed.
Ivy flicked through the TV channels, and stopped on a cartoon. Owl smirked. They were a little old for cartoons, even if their bodies were still those of kids. Kids with adult minds.

"Turn it off," he growled. Ivy nodded, and Owl saw tears in her eyes, too. The TV went black, and Owl decided to sleep.
