A lot can happen in five years, at least in Anastasia's experience it does. She leaves, she comes back, she meets new people, she continues to struggle through highschool, she tries to lead a normal life, and she gives it all up when she realizes she can't. However she realizes rather quickly that she can't stay away from the life for long, and there are certain consequences that come along with that. •Prelude that leads into Invasion and takes place after Wonder.
