That wailing was truly not stopping, no matter how long the little boys behind me hid and waited or how hard I wished that it would be quiet and stop hurting my ears. And now it seemed that the boys were afraid to move on while the sound continued. When I looked down at the three of them, I saw nothing but petrified looks in their eyes and tiny little hands that were clinging to my shirt.

"I will protect you, don't worry." I tried my best to calm their nerves as I slowly pulled them along behind me. "I will make sure that nothing bad happens to you."

I moved forward at a slow and steady pace. While I continued to walk, I tried to pinpoint where the sound was coming from. I needed to find the source of the wailing and help whoever it was. I moved first according to my ears and then according to my eyes. I needed to use those two senses as I tracked where to go.

It only took me a few minutes before I managed to locate the source of the wailing. There was a woman standing just beyond the edge of the Colorado Springs city limits. She was looking out at the open road and screaming in a high, heartbreaking wail. Then I watched her turn around, face the city, and repeat the move.

She did that over and over again. Wailing and screaming non stop as she looked in the two different directions. I could see her face as well. It was nothing but a twisted mask of sorrow that was covered in both fresh and dried tears.

"What has happened to her?" I asked the other me, knowing that she would hear me and hopefully answer me.

'She is especially caught up in her past. And it seems to be a past that was hard on her. I do not know why she is behaving like this, but I know that she, more than anyone else, needs to move on.' There was a hint of apprehension in the other me's voice. Did she know more than what she was telling me?

"Will she even accept my help?" I was wondering about this as I slowly walked toward her.

I had to stop moving, though. My steps had become labored, and it was almost impossible to move forward at that moment.

"What is going on?" I looked down at the three little boys. "Why are you stopping me?"

I knew that they couldn't talk to me, but I asked them that question anyway. I felt like I might be able to understand them in some way if I asked them what they were doing.

And I had been right about it too. When I tried to find out what they wanted, I got the impression that they were telling me she was bad. That she was dangerous.

"She's not dangerous. She's a lost soul, like the others were. I need to help her." I cupped their cheeks, one after the other. First Zachary's then Zander's and finally Zayden's. "Don't worry. You three can stay over here. I will go help her while you stay put. I won't make you go, but I have to help her. OK?" They nodded at me and then clung to each other instead of me. "I will be back soon." I nodded at them and walked over to the woman.

I moved with caution, not knowing if this was another person that Hekate was going to use to attack me. Not to mention, I didn't want to frighten her and make her do something, even if she wasn't one of the people that Hekate was going to send after me.

I don't know if I was being this cautious because of the three boys or if I was actually seeing this woman as a threat. Either way, I was on guard and watching her and the boys at the same time. I needed to stay vigilant and on my toes.

"Ma'am?" I called out to her when I got closer to her. "Miss?" She wasn't turning to look at me, and she definitely wasn't stopping to attack me either. I knew that she was going to be harmless. "Are you OK, ma'am?"

What in the fucking hell was the matter with me? I literally just asked a dead woman stuck in Limbo if she was OK. How much more not right could she get? And how much more inconsiderate could I get? Yeah, this was just fucking crazy and stupid of me.

"AHHHHHHH AHHHHHHHH AHHHHHHH! UHWAHHHHAHHHHHH! AH! AH! AH! AH! AH! AH! AH! AH!" She was just screaming and screeching non stop as she turned around and around. "AHHHHHHH AHHHHHHHH AHHHHHHH! UHWAHHHHAHHHHHH! AH! AH! AH! AH! AH! AH! AH! AH!"

"Ma'am?" I called out to her again as I reached her, but she still didn't stop. None of the others had either, not until Hekate got a hold of them. Oddly enough, this was actually a good sign. This meant that I could actually help her without her trying to do something to me or the boys.

I just needed to put my hand on her head and release her from her Limbo prison. I had done it several times before, and I could do it again. It wasn't that hard.

Except, finding a way to get a hold of her was hard since she was moving about violently.

"I am going to help you, Ma'am. I promise you that this will end soon. Please, just let me help you."

I made a grab for the woman and she finally stopped moving, that was good, but then she also just started to scream louder and most rapidly.

"AHH! AHH! AHH! AHH! UHWAHHH! AHH! AHH! AHH!"

"MA'AM! PLEASE! I AM GOING TO RELEASE YOU! I AM GOING TO HELP YOU!" I yelled the words loud enough for her to hear me but it wasn't doing any good at all.
