Roybin no longer had the feeling of being followed, but Roybin was still cautious. From her younger years, Roybin pulled out several old fashioned alarms. All over her back yard she placed bells on strings, and trip strings stratigically. She even put them on the roof and chimney and every area that normal people aren't supposed to be. She was even more cautious of the front door, avoiding it whenever possible.
When her brother's friend asked her brother what she was doing he replied, "She's just nervous. Possibly for a date or something at work. No big deal. We just can't play in the backyard and trust me when I say don't ask."
Roybin calmed down by going outside and sat among very high branches in a tree. She rested until she fell asleep. She saw someone running, it was Hon! When Roybin called out to him, she heard a growl. Turning, she saw a wraith with a long sword sniffing, coming closer. Terrified, Roybin ran. Far ahead she saw Hon who now seemed unaware of the danger. Roybin tripped and woke up. It was evening, and time for her to get to the park.
