[Sodium_noir] Hell is Other People

[Jennie Teakle]

Sinclair Mansion
1-3am

Mara, Christine, Sandra, Bradley

[Mara]
And then the electronic sounds of Nirvana begin to emanate from her  
purse.  Holding up a finger asking Bradley to wait, she looks at the  
screen.  It was the last person she'd expected to call.  But there it  
was on her screen.  Christine.  So what did she want?  Only one way  
to find out.

"Hello Christine."  Mara's voice is calm, showing no sign of fatigue  
despite the lateness of the hour.  Fatigue would come later...with  
the approach of dawn.


[Christine]
"Mara? We need to talk," says Christine tensely. "Where the hell are  
you?"

Christine looks around, trying to fix her bearings. She and Sandra  
had managed a circuit of the vast ball room without seeing Mara. Now  
they are standing not far from one of the doors that lead out onto  
the floodlit gardens, directly opposite the sweeping staircase.
