It was an exhilarating ride, a quick dash through the city, some of it traversed on rooftops with Alyx making massive leaps across busy streets and scaling up and down vertical faces. I enjoyed it as much as she did, laughing at the freedom, strength, and power that she put on display. It ended too quickly, and we found ourselves back inside the terminal, bypassing security and moving toward the food court once again. I knew I could probably find an angel somewhere else, but I would have to go looking. I already knew Jane would be here. I found her laying on a bench near Gate 21. She was projecting herself as a weary traveler, splayed out on the bench with her luggage behind her head. There was no sign of any other angels, and that worried me. "Jane," I said, coming up behind her. I was masking Alyx's aura, keeping her wrapped and neutralized in my power. There was no point in causing another scene. She sat up and spun to face me, her hand out to summon a sword. The action told me a lot about her in very little time.
