    Summary

    This is what Rumi knows to be true: Zoey and Mira don’t want her.

    Zoey and Mira don’t want her, and she does not want herself, and so she goes to the only other person who might.

    (She always found herself jealous of euthanized dogs)

    Or

    As Zoey and Mira walk towards their impending doom, into Gwi-Ma's gaping maw, the entire world waits with bated breath for a hero. For someone to come with a song, a light in the dark, to save the day. But, no one does. And as destiny falls apart and fate screams in disapproval, the Honmoon reaches out to fix a cosmic error. Again, and again. No matter how many times it takes.

    Summary

    The morning sun slanting over Rumi's eyes is what wakes her. She has her face turned to the window, cheek smushed flat on the mattress and she can feel the wet cling of drool under her chin. She's warm and cozy otherwise, the blanket is up to her nose, and all she needs to do to get away from the pesky sun is duck her head a little more. So, she does.

    And immediately recoils in surprise when her nose hits something hard. And soft. Something hard covered in something soft. The top of Zoey's head. Rumi rubs at her nose in sleepy confusion for a second.

    Zoey's in bed with her.

    Summary

    Something nervous, terrified, settled into Rumi's features even as she gave a resolute nod. Shakily, she lifted her arms, having to lean against the edge of the tub heavily to keep from tumbling to the side. Pride flared in Mira again, though it was overshadowed by concern for what Rumi was trying to hide.

    What had Celine forced her to keep silent? A million different horrible possibilities ran through her mind but all of them came to a screeching halt when she saw the purple on her skin.

    The one thing she'd never considered.

    Rumi had patterns.

    ----

    What if Rumi got injured during the fight on the train? What if that injury led to the girls seeing her patterns?

    Well they do here.

    Then they eventually kiss about it.

    Summary

    “But there’s only one of me,” Rumi says. “Where are the others?”

    “They’re out in the world right now. Little girls, just like you. Only they don’t know, yet, that they are Hunters. One day, you will find them, and your soul will be complete.”

    She tries to imagine the two other girls somewhere out there. She wonders if they live in a small village like her, or if they live in a city, or by the water. She wonders what the other girls will be like. She wonders if they’ll like her.

    “I can’t wait to meet them,” Rumi says reverently.
