obviously now with Onie. Michael wondered how long they’d been together. Apparently, long enough to marry and have kids. He noticed their rings, and Onie had been busy showing baby pictures to Lu when he first walked up. He congratulated both of them.
    “It’s been a long time!” said Zac with genuine happiness. Zac was tall also, good-looking, and wore his hair slicked back. Onie, was a light-skinned black woman, still beautiful with those big, brown eyes.
    “Gather up, everyone.”
    Michael noted that Jonathan had actually made it an order. Jon always somehow took on the role of inherent leader, though no one ever said a word about leadership in the group. Michael smiled, glad to have such a good group to call his friends. Everyone did their part and worked together well. Except Stu. Stu always seemed to go off on his own. Michael chalked it up to Stu’s age difference. He was only nineteen. Jonathan had tried to bring him around a few times in later years when the friends had gotten together socially, but it hadn’t worked out. Zac asked about Stu, and Jonathan diplomatically said this was a mission for the “old” gang. Michael nodded to Jonathan, grateful.
    Jonathan described what he knew to the group and then handed the floor over to Michael to fully explain. Several kids were skateboarding nearby. Michael decided to give a quick run-down. He let everyone know about Brandon and Mira and her loss of continuity and age. Then he decided to have everyone go their separate ways and meet up later, since the skateboard park was fairly crowded. He remembered when it used to be crowded with their own friends. It reminded him of Mira’s absence. He never felt old around Mira.
    Once they heard about Brandon and that Mira was in trouble, he noted everyone became very serious. Michael knew he had a tight group of friends no matter how much time had passed.
    Haltingly, he started to say thank you, but his throat caught. Jonathan covered for him.
    “Now remember, Mira is only nine. That’s before she learned everything. Michael is going to have to teach her the astral all over again. And we”—Jonathan motioned around—”are gonna have to become her friends all over again.”
    “Hopefully that won’t be hard,” said Lu. “I mean, we all love her.”
    “Yeah,” said Jonathan, “but she doesn’t know us from Adam currently.” He sounded downcast. He’d spent years joking and kidding around with Mira. Suddenly, she would be like a stranger.
    “Remember,” Michael added, “if we can find her at twelve, our problems are solved, because by then she knows all the tricks. Otherwise it’s going to be slow going.”
    “We got it,” said Trina in her usual ‘not meant to be sassy but sounded that way’ voice.
    “Um, Michael?” Zac interrupted as they were about to break.
    “Yeah, Zac?”
    “We haven’t been there in a long while. How do we know how old we’ll be or how we’ll look? Couldn’t that ruin everything? I mean I don’t think Mira is going to relate to a thirty-eight-year-old. No offense.”
    “That’s a good point, Zac. I’ve already been back, and since it was my first time in a long time, I was twelve. But I want to go back a little older so she’ll listen to me and I can teach her. I am hoping I can control myself better now that I’ve got the hang of it again and come in as my true self, which is a bit older. I think showing up as twelve for me was just a fluke of having not traveled astrally in a while. When we round up together, we’ll see how everyone appears.”
    Michael and Jonathan both figured they would all probably look as they had twenty years ago when they used to travel to the other world. No one had continued to do so, or not very much, so the ages should be about the same. Made things easier. And harder. In your thirties, getting used to teenage hormones again was difficult. Even though you retained your intellect, except in cases of trauma, like Mira, the hormones
