Gateway (The Gateway Trilogy, Book 1) - Plot & Excerpts
comes too soon. I was groggy as I pulled on cargo pants and a vintage sweater I'd bought at a thrift store. By the time I brushed my teeth and made it downstairs, the cobwebs were clearing and I found myself saying hello to some students I'd met the day before. I wondered what had changed—even before my own personal demon invasion I hadn't been much of a people person—and I realized it was hope. I had hope in myself, and hope in the Institute.

A tiny, brown freckle… I struggled to ease in, as Master Dogan had instructed, instead of falling headlong as I usually did. I reminded myself that for once I wasn't trying to escape anything. I was safe here; I could enter slowly… It only took a moment for velocity to overtake me, but once floating in the abyss I was comforted at the improvement. I drifted. A chime sounded, indicating the end of the session and I pulled myself back into the room.
