I'll try, Jim.

I have Peter to look after though. After all this, I don't want him leaving my sight.

If you two need a different place to stay, we can probably find you a place in the building. I know Dad's apartment can hold more than just him.

Just make sure you keep yourself safe, alright?

Alright. I may take you up on that if things get worse since it'd probably be safer for Peter.

[She hesitates for a second, seeming to want to say something... but doesn't other than:]

I will, promise.

Thanks.

Now who is this Peter?

[ Big brother instincts are a go. ]

[She has to smile at his concern.]

He's a little boy who had everyone that he knew but me leave the city. Since his brother left him alone here, I've taken him in for now.

[ Their family really needs to stop growing. ]

You'll have to introduce us sometime.

I may get a chance to soon if Cain stays on the loose.

Until we find a way to contain him, he's going to be on the loose. Olivia Dunham-- you know her?-- she's meeting with one of the people from his world. I'm hoping she'll get something out of it more than just 'sit tight and let us deal with it.'

I do know her.

I also talked to Esther, a woman who knows Cain personally. I didn't get much from her other than that some people named Abel and Lilith would take care of it all.

No offense to them, but that's not exactly reassuring.

It isn't, I agree. I do understand they're just trying to prevent more needless deaths though.

I get that. Doesn't mean I don't wish there was something a little more solid, though. Like Kryptonite or something.

[A small laugh.]

I don't think Kryptonite would stop Cain but it's a nice thought.

I think as long as everyone stays indoors and doesn't attract Cain's attention in any way they should be fine.

Fingers crossed.

Hey, if you need anything, just holler, alright?

[ voice | filtered ] rosey_maiden February 24 2010, 05:59:33 UTC
I will. I promise.

I'm almost back to the room now, anyw--

[A pause. A very, very long pause and then when she talks again the slightest hint of panic in her voice.]

Jim. Peter's not here.

What?! Where are you? I'm coming to get you.
