Leaving the Carnival had been one of the easiest things to do. At least at first, it wasn't until she was bundled in a warm coat and holding Esper's hand a few blocks from the Carnival that it really hit. What had she done? And where would they go?
"Where do we go?" There was sorrow in her voice. Not for their future but for what she'd lost. She was happy, she squeezed Esper's hand, it was the right thing to do, but now what? "We could stay with Zeke. Or we could haunt Cruz some more. I'm sure that would go over well." He was slipping away, he'd visited Zeke, he was hitting a new low just what her cousin wanted. They wouldn't necessarily be needed there anymore.
