It had been quite a few hours since the rain had started. Amber had rested periodically, stretching in place of the exercises. It sounded like the storm was tapering off. The rain had miraculously stopped. With that strong wind outside, it might be safe to leave when the storm left. That is, if it didn't start raining again. With her luck, this storm had an eye and she was barely halfway through it. Whichever the case, time would tell.

Seeing a glow in the darkness, Amber paused. Was her vision going? Had she allowed the pollution outside to get to her that she was going senile? Surely not. Her body functioned too well for that to be the case. Looking around, she saw that her exercises made it hard to tell how many and where to. Questions another person might have. Slipping back away from the dimly lit area, she stepped behind a pillar.

Peering out from the shadows, she tried to see what the glow was. Surely there wasn't a lightening fire down here. That would be dangerous. The whole roof was composed of wood. Still, these trees were tough things. Maybe there was simply another person. That was dangerous too. She didn't trust humans. Leaning back, she tried to hear what her eyes couldn't see.
