As they spoke, Tyria's laptop caught her eye, and she spent a few seconds reading.
"Come on," Tyria said, standing up, and heading out the door without a glance behind.
She headed back to the same workroom where they had come from, where John Dee was leaning back in an easy chair watching X-Men Origins: Wolverine. It looked like a production cut. Zero was sleeping in a chair next to the couch Calligan was on.
"Three to Carson City, John," Tyria told John.
John paused the movie, spun his chair around, and started chanting as his fingers danced.
The silver line appeared, and rotated, tearing a wide hole in space.
"Nine seconds," John said as he started the movie again.
"Tell Ruby I sent you," Tyria told them, looking expectantly at the Portal.
