No Smoke Without Fire

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 6694

The papers must clearly be burnt at once. Stacy grabbed them, then paused for a moment. How was she to burn them? She didn't recall seeing a book of matches or a cigarette lighter anywhere in the apartment. (In spite of the pamphlet about the dangers of smoking which she had found in her bag, she didn't think that she was a smoker. In the few hours that she could remember, she had never felt a craving for a cigarette. Though if she was going to keep on suffering from a shaky hand, perhaps she ought to take the habit up!)

She decided that tearing each page into small pieces and then putting it in the waste disposal would be a better idea. But just as she was about to start:

  1. She heard the door into her apartment from the hall being unlocked.
  2. The phone rang again. Should she ignore it?
  3. The lights went out. (It was dusk by this time.)
  4. She had an alarming thought. Supposing this was not the only copy?
