They could so use Rachel right now...to run in and comfort Stephanie.  There's no way a guy could do it, and very unlikely anyone with powers is going to be able to comfort the girl so soon after an experience like that.  Very unlikely that Rachel would either, but she still feels like someone should be next to the girl and not facing this fiend down.  How much she'd love Jack rushing in right now, tackling the thing, blind siding it completely.  Though it's a thought left to the wind since she's not psychic and has no idea where Jack is at this very moment.<br/><br/>Sandy grits her teeth as the cry comes from the creature in front of them.  Likely a person.  Maybe even Stephanie's old boyfriend or something that had just followed base desires to be with the girl again.  But that doesn't give him any kind of right to do what he did.  She lunges forward to pelt the thing in the stomach with one of the railings, then raises it to try and uppercut it.  Maybe knock it out...maybe just knock it down, but she's hoping to pin it to the ground with a railing across it's neck.  "Tell us where Rachel is!" It's always helpful to know that Alana has her back, and Eric for that matter...
