{flashback — 6/2/17}
Tommy’s brows furrowed as he expanded the map, the holographic blueprints of New York City stretching across the room. He reached up to adjust his glasses while Kat stepped forward.
“That can’t be right...” she said, flicking her fingers to zoom further still. The underground structure of the metro and sewage system filled the screen, and her eyes immediately began tracing the tunnels. “Level two can be anywhere from thirty to two-hundred feet below ground, but these...”
“It’s a pattern,” Tommy confirmed, pointing at the seven flashing red lights. Landing on the last one, he nodded. “It starts there and travels all the way around to...” he traced the line with his finger. “Here.”
“It’s all sewage,” Katherine placed her hands on her hips, concern etched across her face. “Do you think Devone could be behind all this?”
“I think it’s a possibility,” he turned to face her, face remaining stoic. “Seven disturbances in two weeks reeks of no good. I think it’s worth checking out.”
“Me too,” Katherine agreed. “I’ll call Eurydice and Bianca. There’s no use in disrupting the twin’s and Sawyer’s vacation until we know what we’re dealing with.”
Tommy’s brows rose as a thought occurred to him. “You know, there is another possibility.”
Katherine stared at him. “Do you think he’s ready?”
“Only one way to find out.”
“That’s not our call,” she reminded him. “He needs time and so does she.”
Tommy nodded and stepped forward to wrap his hands around her waist. She kissed his cheek and he smiled. “You’re right, but maybe we can mention it. You know, get the ball rolling a bit. Maybe they could use a push... or a gentle nudge?” Tommy offered when she gave him a pointed look.
“We’ll mention it,” Katherine conceded, the hint of a smile twitching at her lips. “I know how much you believe in him, and I want you to know that I’m with you. One-hundred percent.”
Tommy grinned, pecking her lips before releasing her and heading to the council. Katherine followed him and together, they keyed in the command to contact the rangers.
“Eurydice, Bianca, come in,” Katherine called.
