The fire continued coming, but it seemed to be dying down. Or, more accurately, the guards who were producing it were dying off. The security team seemed to have perfect aim. There was, however, one more person with good aim.
Garren.
A shot whizzed right next to Dani's head. She gasped, recoilin...

"Computer, play Andy Warhol by David Bowie," Noah said as he and Amelia ran into the family quarters. "Mum and Dad listen to it all the time."
The computer chirped, and the intro started to play. Amelia scrunched her face as she considered.

"I've been holding out so long, I've been sleeping all alone, Lord I miss you," Amelia sung to herself as she crossed through Central Park. "I've been hanging on the phone, I've been sleeping all alone, I want to kiss you." It was a little after 0200, and technically the park was closed. Not that it...
