Secrets of Goth Mountain

CHAPTER 9
SUSPICIONS
Thirty thousand feet above Illinois, Ann Goth tried to nap. She would need all her strength for what would soon come. She would try once more to save Johnny from the Goth legacy.
She would also again try to save Johnny from Angela. She had met Angela only once previously and had immediately disliked her. In summary, Angela was a selfish, power hungry bitch that cared for nobody but herself. Perhaps though, if her hold over Johnny was strong enough, she could first be used as a tool to pry Johnny away from the Mountain. That was obviously the first priority, and the only reason she had agreed to bring Angela with her.
But it wasn’t that simple. Returning to Goth Mountain would require that she again confront Mort, Two Bears and the rest of the Tribe, and perhaps even the People -- everyone that she had abandoned fourteen years ago. However, her toughest confrontation could well be with herself. She would have to again address her own ties to Goth Mountain. She had denied those ties every minute of every hour of every day since Mark had disappeared, but they still persisted.
