Chapter 99
Monday.
Elaine jogged up the steps of the foundation. It had happened an hour ago, and she’d slept in this morning. She’d been feeling so exhausted lately and overslept. But now she was rushing up the steps.
Past the sign.
New Dawn Foundation.
She got into the lobby, and stopped. There were already dozens of people here. Werewolves who she assumed came from all over, gathered within the lobby. Workers helped get them signed up or were taking them to their respective sections of the building.
Elaine smiled.
After all this time, it was finally opened. People were here. They were getting the help they so desperately needed.
She hadn’t even been stopped there a minute when Nancy came running up. “We’ve got a problem.”
Elaine was snapped right back to the present. She looked over. “What is it?”
Nancy led her toward the counter. “Our IT is already working on it, but the system is completely overwhelmed.”
“So what, we can’t get anyone checked in?” Elaine asked.
“Or accept calls or access the website. It’s a mess!”
Elaine exhaled. “Alright. Well, we’ll use paper for now to sign everyone in, don’t use the system until this is figured out. We don’t need to overwhelm it further. Get IT to work on the site first and see if we can direct calls to a personal line instead of the phones.”
Nancy nodded, pulling out her own phone as she hurried off to the staff only door. Elaine moved to the counter beside another worker, helping the next werewolf get checked in.
