    Sarah
    Does anyone have the number for Shane's girl from Boston? I feel bad that they've been seeing each other for this long and we've never added her here.

    Jackie
    Oh good point! Let me ask Hayden.

    Jackie has added Lily to the conversation

    Lily
    what
    what is this

    Or: Ilya Rozanov is, apparently, one of the girls.

    Summary

    The plane—Ilya’s plane—is diverting to the closest airport.

    Shane's next breath doesn't quite make it to his lungs. Suddenly, he is a few years in the past, hearing J.J's voice: "Woah. The Centaurs' plane had to make an emergency landing."

    It's not the same. It's not.

    Ilya's way home is full of delays, and Shane doesn't deal with it so well.

    Summary

    He's seen a few other guys get their bell rung. Has seen a couple of them get to their knees almost immediately; has seen them struggle to their feet, then almost wipe themselves out again. Has seen them kneeling with a dazed expression, trying to figure out where they are.

    And has seen a couple of them lie there. He's been one of them before.

    Swallowing down bile, he asks, "How long did I take to get up?"

    Please have tried. Please, please, have been one of those guys kneeling almost immediately. Please have been moving. Please have let Ilya seen that.

    A couple of years into playing on the same team together, Shane gets concussed. It's a little bit different this time.

    Summary

    When he was a kid, Shane used to have night terrors all the time and they all looked exactly like this. No screams, no terrifying nightmare to justify his fears, no discernible cause of distress besides the feeling of waking up once his eyes were already open. The habit had already faded by the time he turned sixteen, buried under a comforting routine and the stability of his dream career.

    He's not quite sure what made it come back now, but this is not the time to engage in a guessing game. If Shane wants to fall back asleep, he has to accept that it's happening and plan for his next move.

    Eventually, he picks up his phone.

    -

    Shane has a night terror. You won't believe what happens next.
