Matt got off the train in LA. The vaulting stone work in the station creeped him out. People moved through it as if perfectly safe with tons of rock over head. Idiots! Lunatics! Any minute now the ceiling could come tumbling down and all would be lost!

The hair on the back of his neck lifted. He ran for the exit, but stopped long enough to shout. “Run! The building is falling!”

“Crazy.” The people nearest shook their heads. Everyone else ignored him.

He’d done as much as anyone could expect of him. He reached the street just as the earthquake hit.
