Phoenix Contract: Part Five (Fallen Angel Watchers) - Plot & Excerpts
Once she’d left civilization behind, traffic lightened, and her sportscar accelerated until the scenery on either side zipped past. She drove on autopilot, unable to overcome the emotional numbness that had settled over her. It provided a numbing detachment that kept her from falling to pieces. The past was behind her, the future in front, and her mind blank other than for the open road before her. She pushed the car faster and faster, trying to outrun the nightmare of death and destruction that she’d left behind in the city. Near dawn, she finally reached the outskirts of the isolated mountainside town of Hunter. She was missing hours, a time of emotional chaos that even her picture perfect memory couldn’t fill with details. She vaguely recalled aimlessly cruising the streets of the city, and then she found herself parked in a lot behind a fast food restaurant. Engine idling, she stared blankly at a blinking bar sign until the white light imprinted on her retina.
