The usual nightmares had not visited him last night; blessing him with restful sleep for the first time in almost a month. The faces in those nightmares were as clear as day.

Bass takes a moment to shake his head. She has the eeriest internal clock he's ever seen since Miles. He watches as she lets him out of his bonds of hair and limbs. "It was Greer. James and Scott are overdue." "Shit." she hissed sitting up next to him as they pull their boots on. "They're already putting packs together…
