Alice Wayne put Connor down for a nap.  Gabriel had left very specific instructions for taking care of his son.  The young baby boy was sleeping even before he touched the sheets.  Alice soon noticed there was a draft in the room.  The window was open.  She stepped around the crib and over to the window to shut it.  When she turned around, Connor was gone.

The air was warm and the sun was bright making it a perfect day for a cookout to celebrate Labor Day. Classes would start on the 8th (for those going to college they started a week ago) and it was the last chance to kick back and cut loose before hitting the books.

At Xavier's Institute For Higher Learning tables had been placed out around the pool and the large grill fired up. Burgers, hot dogs, sausage, ribs, corn on the cob, pasta salad, salad and fruit salad were just some of the food available to eat. Soda, water, fruit juice and other beverages were on ice.

Cait had even gone as far as going into the woods yesterday and made some garum. It was a surprise for her brother, the twerp liked the stuff, and making it near the mansion was not an option. It was currently in a small container on the table.

She stood on the edge of the pool and made different water sculptures unpon request. Yes, once and awhile a sphere of water would "just happen" to get out of her control and soak someone.

The thought of the audition would leave her mind. Cait had tossed the paper away, but she knew the ad by heart including where and when she needed to be if she wanted to do this. She did want to do it. The more she weighed the idea, the more she wanted to do it.

When the day came, Cait called a cab and went into the city.
