A guitar is being played, its notes drift into the night air, we ascend an abandoned apartment building, the one Erica and Shelby knew so well and once called home. Hades the cat is sat cleaning himself on a wide balcony.

Erica sits on the rooftop, playing the guitar mournfully, we zoom out of where Erica is, as the city scape below us comes into view.

Sarah unlocks the door to her home and steps through, she places the skateboard down and places the keys in a bowl. She hurriedly gets on her knees, rifling through a selection of CD's until she finds the one she is looking for. Sarah puts the CD into a CD player and finds the song, the music begins and the crow is perched on her window ledge.

She notices the crow, standing up she says, "You again," walking a little closer, "you lost? Hungry?"

The crow caws gently.

Sarah gets to within a few inches of the crow, "Hi." She whispers.

The crow caws three times before flying away, Sarah has he head out of the window trying to track the crow.

The CD is stuck, and the lyrics repeat, "Can't rain all the time."

Sarah looks at in astonishment.
