Cursing, she fumbled through her purse for her cell phone and dialed her contact from the moving company. Sally answered on the second ring.
“Hi, Bonnie,” Sally said, using the name Blaspheme used when dealing with humans. “The movers said they’ll be done loading your apartment for the second shipment to London by the end of the day.”
“Good,” Blas said. “I should be there in an hour—” The Call Waiting beep interrupted. “Can I get back to you? My mother is ringing in.”
Sally’s cheerful, “No problem,” was followed by a promise to make sure the movers would take wonderful care of Blaspheme’s things and not to worry, and a moment later, Blaspheme’s mother was on the other line.
“Hi, Mom.” Blaspheme slammed on her brakes to avoid rear-ending a piece of shit truck that apparently hadn’t come equipped with a turn signal or brake lights. She shot the driver the finger through her front windshield.
“Blas.” Her mother’s raspy voice came from right next to Blaspheme.
Screaming, Blas dropped the phone. “Holy shit!”
She opened her mouth again to yell at her mother for popping into the car from out of nowhere, but when she saw the blood, her voice cut out. Deva, short for Devastation, sat in the passenger seat, every inch of her body covered in blood. The broken end of a bone punched through her left biceps, and a deep, to-the-femur burn had devastated her right leg.
“Oh, gods,” Blaspheme gasped. “What happened?”
Her mother lifted her trembling hand from her abdomen, and Blas got an eyeful of bowels poking through the laceration that stretched from just above her navel to her hipbone.
“I—” Deva sucked in a rattling breath…and slumped, unconscious, against the window.
