Genesis had been waiting. Waiting this whole time and praying. She knew that Giles would get there. It would only be a matter of time. He promised that he would come and find her. They loved each other. Nothing was going to break that bond, and she'd do whatever she had to to make sure that didn't happen. But first she just needed to stay alive until he got there. Which, thankfully she'd been successful at so far.
Mostly because you could cut the tension between Cain and Kennedy with a knife. It was beyond coldness. It was downright terrifying. She didn't want to know what had gone on when she wasn't there. Her hands still hurt, she ached and she wanted nothing more to be out of there. She wanted to see her brother, and mostly, she just wanted to close the damn Gate.
It was humming so loud, she could barely think. Barely hear anything else besides it. She thought her head might explode. That would be all she needed. Taken out by a humming Gate when help was so close she could feel it.
And that's when things changed. The door opened and all Genesis could do was breathe a sigh of relief. No matter what came next, she knew he would come. And there he was. With Faith. Thank god. He was there.
He was there.
And maybe now this nightmare could end.
