Mickey hears everything going to hell behind her, she feels Snake shoving her and Schreber through the portal, and she feels herself letting go of him.

Ryan bounds down the stairs in a t-shirt and pajama pants, Jack not too far behind. "Mickey?" He throws open the door. "Mickey! Thank God, you're back!" He pulls her in and hugs her gently, worried she might be hurt. She certainly looks like she's been through Hell.

Jack watches the two with a relieved smile. "Rashid said you might be back soon. We were so worried, Mickey."

"Ryan, oh thank god, you're alive," she says. Mickey hugs Ryan back, practically leaning against him. "I - there is no way anything I'm about to say will make any sense," Mickey says. There's black ichor on her, and she's exhausted.

"I was worried too. You have no idea. I - I need to sit down."

"I was - I was worried. I thought you were stuck where I was..." Mickey gets into the chair and sinks down.

"Rashid was right. There were these... these things, called the Strangers. They kidnapped people, they... they changed our memories." she shudders. "I was this Irish girl named Shirley Flynn. I sang at bars at night, except it was always night in that city. The Strangers, they didn't like sunlight. Or water. I..." She rubs her head, hard. "Everything is just... Oh god, Ryan, Jack... I got chased by one of those things, but it was different. It had... tentacles coming out of it's head."

She rubs her temples hard, shaking.
