Cissie had somehow managed to make it to the side of the building, and was leaning with her back pressed against it. She could at least be sure of what was happening behind her this way. She knew someone was coming--she had no idea how she knew, but she could almost feel them approaching. She couldn't see anything. The darkness was absolute, no matter how hard she strained her eyes. It reminded her of--no. She couldn't go there. Not now.
When she heard Tim's voice, she almost cried in relief. "Tim?"
"Hey," he said, crossing the remaining distance between them and gripping her hand. He tugged her toward him gently to pull her into a hug. "Can you tell me what happened?"
She held onto him tightly, taking deep breaths to try and steady herself. "I don't know," she said, squeezing her eyes shut. If she closed them, she could pretend, for the moment, that that was why she couldn't see. "I was just walking and--did you see? What happened with the Entropi? It was--and then it just went dark and I couldn't--I can't see, Tim."
He nodded. "Yeah, I saw what happened." He hugged her even more tightly. "I'm sorry, Cissie. I have... no idea what's going on. As nearly as I can tell... it looks like a power-swap kind of thing. it looked a little like... balls of energy being knocked out of people and onto others. I don't have any way to explain it."
