Dark Revolution
In their apartment in Cairo's Maadi suburb Shayera tried to simultaneously follow the news and get a call out to St. Roch's. She hadn't been able to get a line out since the protests started a day or so earlier and while the bulk of the unrest was further south and ravaging neighborhoods like Tura, it was still unsettling.

"Carter," she said as she put the phone down after her tenth failed attempt in as many minutes, "we need to do something. This...this is getting big."

Khufu answers the phone, trying not to crush it in his grasp.

"Hello?" he rasps in a rough approximation of Carter's voice. He could have a cold, the way he sounds.

"Dad? DAD! Oh thank gods! Are you okay? I'm watching tv and it looks like all hell has broken out over there! Are you coming home? Dad...please tell me you're okay."

"We're fine, little one. In fact...your mother and I want to come home and see you and your brother as soon as possible." Carter says.

"We've missed you both so much. Where can we come to see you?" he asks.

"You mean you're not pissed I got expelled?" Curious. Maybe a revolution put stuff into perspective? "We're in New York, Dad. At the Brownstone. Is it safe for you to travel?"

"No. You had your reasons." Khuf says simply, as he has no clue what she's talking about.

"We can travel. We'll be home very soon. Make sure your brother is with you, please. We have something important to tell both of you." he says.

"Okay, Dad. We'll be here. Just be careful, okay? I love you guys."

"We'll be careful, little one. And we know." Khufu says, crushing the phone in his grip.

"They will be at the Brownstone, she said. Right where we want them."
