Zoe had cut class before. But this was different. Finding herself in Melony's bedroom, not remembering how she got there, or even why she was there ... that really freaked her out. She needed some time to sort all of this out, and she couldn't do that with having to deal with school. Though ... for some reason, for the first time ever, she felt like she was missing out on something, by cutting class. Shaking her head, now dressed in her normal Goth clothing, Zoe headed out of her house, not realizing that her pale white skin wasn't quite as pale as usual.

By the time teenager Stephanie Wright had left, Grace Littleton had "woken up", finding herself in the Goth girl's bedroom. Grace had been around a long time, but kids these days ... she just didn't understand them. Least of all the girl who lived here. Frankly, it kind of freaked her out. But what she was wearing freaked her out more. She wasn't sure why, but somehow, an entirely new outfit had been put on her - something Stephanie would normally wear, consisting of a black corset over a nylon shirt, a black leather miniskirt, fishnet stockings, and heavy lace-up boots. It instilled a sense of sexiness, paired with creepiness. Grace wanted it all off right now. So she stripped, putting back on the nightgown she had been wearing previously.
"Excuse me, but what are you doing in my daughter's room?" a woman suddenly demanded.
Now back in her nightgown, Grace turned around, looking bewildered, and said "I don't know."
The woman (Stephanie's mother) came to the conclusion that this old woman had somehow wandered into their apartment accidentally, so she decided to help her. She momentarily wondered where her daughter was, as she usually had to be practically threatened to wake up in the morning, but helping this old woman seemed more important to her at the moment.
Speaking of her daughter ... where was Stephanie headed to?
