Re: Chapter 2a: Tobias and Sean
The sound is coming from up the stairs and down the hallway, in the master bedroom. Peter tears through the door with Henry quick in toe. Beyond the doorway Sonya, dressed in a night gown, is furiously scratching at the wall above her bed's headboard, digging with the fervor of someone who's been buried alive. The wall is covered in bloody scratch marks and her fingernails are torn to stumps. In between screams she rambles incoherently.
Peter and Henry try to restrain her and she protests, yelling Zey are just right over zher! I can hear him on ze ozer side! Zey need my help, please let me help them! Zey are so close, I am so close! I am... so...
She fades, closes her eyes, and falls backwards. Peter tries to catch her, but she falls backwards onto the bed. She groans and stirs, and in a very sleepy voice she says, Honey? Ees zat you?
She sees Sean and Tobias standing in the doorway and suddenly notices she is not properly dressed. Pulling the covers over herself annoyedly, she asks Peter, Eh, who are zees people and why are zey in my bedroom?
