Tori rolled her eyes. "Fine. Whatever." Her backpack buzzed again. "He's calling." Tori swung the backpack around to grab her phone.
Sure enough, it was Stefan.
"No," Tori said as soon as she answered the phone.
"You don't even know--"
"No, Stefan. I'm done. I'm done, Jana's done, and even your damn family is done with your shit."
"What do you know about my family?"
"I'm here," Polly said. "And I told my mom and your mom."
"Seriously? What kind of shit is that?" Stefan yelled.
"I'm pretty sure they'll have words for you," Polly said.
"Goodbye, Stefan," Tori said.
And that felt a bit lighter on her heart to say that. Especially hearing him yelling as she hung up on him.
"Now, I just need to go to Seattle for a month or something," Tori said.
Polly raised her eyebrow. "Seattle? Why?"
"Someplace that's not here and further than a casual drive to get to so I can let go of this."
"I get that," Polly said.
They both turned back to the sculptures where Jana was walking through the arches, this time, yelling and slapping her hand on them again.
"She's gonna burn herself with it being this hot out today," Polly muttered as they started to walk over there.
Jana stepped through one of the arches, and a bright light lit up the arch.
"Wait, what was that?" Tori asked.
The light faded, and Jana was gone.
"Shit, what was that?" Tori started running for the arch.
Polly on her heels. "Jana? Jana where did you go?"
"It is some kind of optical illusion?" Tori said as she reached the arch.
Polly stuck her hand through it, but nothing happened. "I don't think so. It doesn't make sense, though. She was right here."
Tori put her hand on it. And the arch zapped her. "Ouch!" she said, pulling her hand back.
"What? Is it electrified?" Polly asked as she touched it.
"Yes," Tori said just as Polly jerked her hand back.
"Jana!" Polly called out.
Tori called out for her as well. On the ground on the other side of the arch, she saw something glistening on the ground. "Is that her ring?"
"Where?"
