"Let it go," Kate told her, "Robert is there. He's dealt with worse. If Robert needs us, we'll know."
Kate was keeping her senses in tune while she encouraged both young women to keep shopping for awhile longer. Khaat found some more cute things, but increasingly, her own senses were heightened because she was feeling increasingly fearful for her daughters.
"I...can't stay," Khaat finally told her mother softly. "I have to go back."
"I know," Kate sighed. "Jack doesnt' have near the control he thought he did. Your father has it under control, but I can understand why you want to go back. Jess, let's go back."
She walked the two younger women back into the alley, after they rang up their last purchases, and apparated them back to the living room.
The moment they apparated into the room, Khaat saw that night had fallen back in Colorado and before her eyes, Jack transformed into a werewolf right in the middle of the living room. Khaat froze. She had seen Remus transform before, but it had been years. The creature raged at her and began to destroy the room. The last she knew was seeing the dining room table being hurled at her, and seeing the stone in her necklace sending out a blinding green light and a shrill, deafening noise worse than any siren she'd ever heard. Then it all went black.
