   Summary

   Who would have thought that living through the most traumatic event of your life would be just one part of the problem?

   The DMS have Derek and Avery, though neither of them know that the other is there. Once they find out, nothing will stop them from trying to save the other, but really, if there's a chance that the King In Yellow is still alive, should they even try to escape at all? Would they be potentially dooming the world if they did? Or is it already too late?
