She didn't have her board. The lake had eaten it, and she just hadn't had the heart to go get a new one. Nowish, she was trying to sort out her feelings on Chrissy's death. She knew in theory she shouldn't ever be happy about something like that. She should feel bad or...something.

But all she could really feel was relief. Relief that the bitch was gone. She wasn't going to hurt anyone anymore. Not her, not Thom, not anyone else she set her sights on. It was over. She didn't feel good about things though. And, really, after a day or whatever, she was mostly feeling numb. Blank, even if she was really making an effort to not feel shellshocked to some degree. But the largest force in her life that made it such an awful, messed up chain of events...was gone. Poof. Just...gone.

Kaysen was left wondering where the hell she went from here. And she had no idea.
