With that, mixed with the looks on his companions faces, it wasn't hard for Austin to tell that whatever was happening was bad. Very bad. Dust skittered from the floor as the gravity shifted, and Austin reached his hand out, reaching for Tanner. Whatever was happening, whatever was going on- it wasn't good.
