Aria's Pov
My feet pound against the pavement as I grip Tom's hand, our breaths coming in short gasps while we flee down the empty street. Davina's presence surges within me, her fierce energy pushing me faster as the memory of Sarah's transformation replays in my mind. Not Sarah at all - but something far more sinister wearing her face like a mask.
"Run faster!" Davina snarls inside my head. "Let me take over if you can't keep up!"
But I maintain control, letting her strength flow through me without surrendering to her completely. Tom's grip on my hand is steady, grounding, as we weave through narrow side streets away from where we left that... thing.
We step out onto a bustling street near Tiffany's workplace, and I almost trip when I notice a familiar blonde figure. It's Isabel. She's in conversation with a younger blonde girl who resembles her. My stomach churns at the sight.
