Blaire knew coming here could end her up in two ways — dead Or finally getting to the bottom of this unraveled mystery. “Who's there?” She whispered harshly as she turned around. She had felt the presence of someone else and heard the sound of faint footsteps — They were close. Blaire tried to squint through the darkness in front of her, but of course, that didn't work well considering it was nighttime and the whole street seemed isolated. It was more than clear that if this was indeed a trap, Blaire was in danger.

A tear slipped down Aramide's cheeks as she ran her hands over her daughter's hospital cap. The Doctor had finally allowed her in to see her little girl and the sight was horrible.
