Chapter Summaries

Andrew visited the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau to investigate a group of passengers marked for death and heard Claire’s account of their plane trip. By comparing the crash simulation with the passengers’ accidental deaths, he confirmed that the deaths followed the same order, while Grim Reaper’s Death Fate Line remained on Claire.

• Alesha trained General Zod and encouraged Kara’s Aunt and other Kryptonians to grow stronger, while she planned to seek more resources from Demon.
• Andrew arrived secretly at the Disaster Countermeasures Bureau, found Claire among the passengers held in safe rooms, and asked her to recount what had happened.
• Claire explained how Alex had predicted the plane crash and sensed the passengers’ coming deaths, though his newly awakened ability had been too slow to save them.
• Andrew saw that Grim Reaper had placed a Death Fate Line on Claire and chose not to sever it, hoping the group’s deaths would lead them to Grim Reaper.
• Andrew used Artificial Intelligence to simulate the plane crash and compare its death order with the passengers’ later accidents.
• Claire saw that the two death orders were identical and realized the accidents followed the order in which the passengers had died in the crash.

Andrew explained that Claire’s group had merged with the survivors targeted by Grim Reaper and planned to uncover how to stop it. After Andrew persuaded Director Newman to let the survivors move around the Bureau headquarters, some feared the permission was a ploy to abandon them.

• Andrew told Claire that Carter was likely the next target and planned to pose as her classmate Cycho to help expose Grim Reaper.

• Director Newman announced that the survivors could move freely in the headquarters’ southern area but could not leave.
• Some survivors objected, asking whether the Bureau was abandoning them to die in accidents.

• Carter’s girlfriend soothed his fear, and Carter fell asleep while watching Nightmare on Elm Street as Van Helsing monitored him.

Freddy killed Carter in a dream, and the injury manifested in the safe house before Van Helsing could save him. Carter’s girlfriend then died the same way, leaving Director Newman to discover both bodies and demand an explanation.

• Director Newman told Van Helsing to protect Carter while Dave used magic to promote Peggy online.
