Debbie didn't bother keeping track of time as her phone continued to buzz with various news reports about what appeared to be a pregnant looking giantess roaming through the city with reckless abandon, eating people and causing all sorts of trouble.
Each update only served to exacerbate her guilt and make her wonder what in God's name she was thinking when she first decided to take her husband's invention.
As she continued to walk the weight of carrying Cody's remains began to grow heavier. A good man was dead because of her and anyone else the giant woman hurt in her current state was also on her. The older woman looked towards the bag in her hands and frowned.
"I'm so sorry." She whispered.
The world around her was a complete mess. The glass windows on certain buildings were shattered, car alarms were blaring, people were either hiding or in a panic, and... was that a hot pink convertible headed her way?
Indeed, it was as a familiar looking blonde bombshell in a lab coat brought the vehicle to a screeching halt beside her. "Mrs. Jordan!" she called out.
"Beth?" Her husband's ditsy lab assistant. In Debbie's honest opinion the young blonde didn't belong anywhere near dangerous machinery and chemicals but there wasn't much she or Steve could do about it since her father was essentially bankrolling the project that made this whole mess possible.
That was another thing she had to think about. She didn't just ruin Erica's life but Steve's as well since there was no way his biggest investor wasn't watching the news. He'd probably pull the funding for future projects and get her husband blackballed.
"I'm so glad you're alive! Steve sent me to come get you!" Beth continued on. "Quick! Hop in before the giant comes back!"
Not wanting to continue making the journey on foot and sending a silent thank you to the love of her life, Debbie tossed Cody's remains in the back seat and sat down on the passenger side next to the woman she was at one point jealous of. "Thank you."
"Don't mention it." Beth smiled before giving the older woman a comically serious look. "Buckle up!"
And with that, the car engine roared as the pair u-turned back towards the lab.
