A Second Chance

A few days had passed with nothing much happening. The news announced the death of Billy Bruntin and had reported that it was due to the Altered Hunters. Nothing big had happened with Gary since then and even when he saw Blake the two of them seemed to act normal with each other.

There was one change though, after Amy had returned to school, Stacy was nowhere to be found. When she had asked their home room teacher about it, the adult woman didn’t know any of the specifics, having been told that the high school girl had transferred somewhere else.

Whether Stacy had told her parents about everything or insisted on moving, who knew. Perhaps she was even still in Slough, just in a different school. In the end, Gary was happy that at least it was a problem Amy didn’t need to deal with, but now there was no one close to watch her over at school.

Still, although there were no worries per se with how things were progressing, there was one annoying thing still in front of Gary.
