Kaytlin's patience was being tried. May was sitting on the edge of her bed crying. This was exhausting, and Kaytlin could feel her tie to the physical world waning. 

"Shouldn't you be at school." Kaytlin did her best to keep the weakness she could feel out of her voice. It seemed May didn't notice. 

"With that announcement? There's no way. Mom and dad are looking for a way to evict you and that radio take-over... I had to run back here." May was still catching her breath.

"What announcement?" Kaytlin had no idea what May was talking about. Now the girl was rambling. Telling Kaytlin about some hostile take-over of the radio station. There had been a call to arms, of the sort, against the Other. "I'll be fine May. Your parents promised they wouldn't salt and burn me, and that was a call to action against the less savory types. I am not a vampire or a werewolf. People won't see me as a threat." Even as Kaytlin said it, she knew she didn't completely believe it. Literal witch hunts were about to come into vogue. "Now, go back to school for goodness sake. You're going to get into trouble." May did seem a bit calmed down, and stood. 

"I wish I could hug you." She scrubbed at her face drying it off. Thankfully missing the stab of pain that crossed her face. 

"Me too," Kaytlin whispered. May picked up her backpack and left Kaytlin alone. 

Kaytlin took a few moments to compose herself and imagined her sister's dining room. It was only a couple blocks from her own home. Something that May's parents had used in argument against Kaytlin "living" in their home, but dangit it had been her home first. She had put down the tiles in the bathroom herself, ages ago with Gerald. The thought of him caused her heart to pinch. Stupid emotions like that made her mad. She still loved him. 

"Hello, Kate." William smiled at her, reading his newspaper. He started to open his mouth then caught himself. Probably stopping himself from offering her coffee, again. "Evelyn is upstairs. Shouldn't be much longer."

"What's in the news?"

"The usual nonesnse, and of course the more obnoxious stuff." Worry crossed his face. "I'm thinking of putting an ad in the paper. Saying we're an Other friendly non-criminal law firm."

"Might want to hold off on that. There apparently was a radio hyjack."

"Oh, about?"

"It was a call to arms against others." William frowned. He was getting older; though he was technically younger than Kaytlin, he was looking his 53 years, even more, these last couple of weeks. The frown showed wrinkles deeper than Kaytlin had ever seen on his face before.

"Kaytlin I didn't expect you this early," Kaytlin explained to her sister the situation. "I agree let's offer our services to Others." Kaytlin raised an eyebrow. "Not pro-bono, but let us help the community. Your community."
