Lines of code bloomed across the CRT monitor, window after blinking window stacking like glass panes in a cathedral.

At first, Quinn’s movements were slow–each keystroke deliberate, as though her hands were relearning an old language. Then memory roared awake. Her fingers flew, a blur of precise rhythm, and the scrolling code turned into a waterfall Angela couldn’t hope to decipher.

Meanwhile, in far–flung corners of the globe, clite hackers stared at their own screens as an unexpected signal pinged their secured networks.

“It’s Boss!”

“She’s back online!”

“Waiting for instructions!”

Any one of those remote prodigies could send the average cybersecurity expert into cold sweats—yet at this moment, they sat at attention like loyal soldiers, ready to follow the single mastermind who had just resurfaced.

Across the globe, keyboards went silent at the exact same breathless instant, as though an invisible conductor had ordered every coder, analyst, and night–shift tech to freeze in place.

Some jolted awake to a single midnight call, leaping from rumpled sheets and powering up glowing monitors before their eyelids had even caught up with their hearts.

Angela stood beside Quinn, wholly lost. The woman at the keyboard moved with predatory precision, lines of code flickering across the screen too quickly for a bystander to catch.

“Why are you doing all this?” Angela finally blurted.

“I need a few friends to knock out the town’s traffic cameras for a while and pull the police website offline. Next, I want a complete street grid, plus temporary access to the precinct’s radio channel. All of it should take under five minutes.”

The string of requests crashed over Angela like cold water. Yesterday, this woman had been a bedridden coma patient; and now, she sounded like the field commander of a covert op.

“Who… Who are you, really?” Angela stammered.

“Quinn Bridger,” she said, lifting her gaze. “And I’m Dawn’s mother.”

“That’s not what I meant,” Angela insisted. “A regular mother can’t do what you just did.”

Until tonight, Angela had assumed the woman was helpless, a patient without relatives or

resources.

Each phone call Quinn placed, each keystroke she executed, shredded that illusion, revealing layers Angela had not dreamed existed.

“You’re right, I’m not exactly ordinary,” Quinn said, her tone turning level and sober. “When the people coming for me arrive, you’ll understand everything. But know this right now. You and Megan saved me. I will never hurt either of you. I owe you, and I pay my debts.”

Her eyes were clear and unwavering, carrying the quiet gravity of someone who expected to be believed.

Angela had tended countless patients, yet she had never seen one fresh from a coma stare with that kind of command.

“All right… I believe you,” she heard herself say.

“D*mn it! How does a child vanish inside a guarded estate? What were you people doing?” Edmund bellowed.

Marble floors echoed beneath his boots as he stormed through the front hall, rage chasing him like a shadow he could not outrun.

He had wrapped up business downtown and driven over to check on Dawn, expecting a quiet evening.

Instead, he opened the girl’s bedroom to find nothing but an unmade bed and a window left ajar.

Servants scoured every corridor, pantry, and garden path, yet came back shaking their heads.

Only after security replayed hours of footage did they see the small figure slip past the gates, alone.

“So she ran off–good riddance,” Mindy scoffed, clutching her daughter Emma tighter. “Kids like that, the orphanage has plenty more.”

Roused from sleep in the dead of night, Mindy had been seething. News of Dawn’s disappearance, however, jolted her awake like a shot of espresso.

“What did you two say to that child?” Edmund demanded, eyes flicking from wife to daughter.
