Description To those with a family dynamic, there are few things scarier than a child's temper, and that fact is amplified if that child happens to be a ghost! After one of her haunting pranks had gone too far, Jenny is put in time out... since the group practically lives in a van, where that punishment takes place changes every time, but the constructs keeping her in place are always the same: religious symbols of any faith practically guarding the exits until her twenty minutes are up (she died at seven, keeping her in that age at a spiritual and emotional level, but her twin brother kept aging, making both of them technically twenty). Even though she knows leaving the time-out zone before time is up would get her in trouble with powers far greater then the Ghost Council or even the Chairman, Jenny-- like all children--  tends to lash out when she's upset, and in this case it manifests through her voice as a banshee scream as tensions grow so thick they brew literal and metaphorical storms. From miles away out on an errand, her living twin brother Joey Wren and his shamanic girlfriend Halia Akamai hear her yelling, though despite the loud volume they are two of the extremely few who could hear Jenny in her emotional state (ghost powers are strange that way). Joey is scared and thinks his sister is in actual danger, but Halia, despite sharing his concern, reminds her boyfriend that Jenny is on time out right now and needs to be left alone in order to learn anything, thus it would be better to ignore the noise for now (she puts on earmuffs to help with the ignoring).

Meanwhile back in the time-out zone, literal and metaphorical cracks begin to form in the room's door and window, which are guarded by a crucifix and a tiki respectfully... the faith of the humans who put them there is strong enough to hold Jenny in place until her bad vibes were cleansed, but that same faith almost wavered enough for her to escape and do more harm then good to herself.
