!Warning! Unavoidable spoilers for Worm canon follow!

The fight against Behemoth in New Delhi takes a wrong turn, nearly resulting in a TotalPartyKill. Taylor, one of the few survivors, is discovered by a NotQuiteDead Phir Sē and sent back into the past to try and do better. However, things don't go quite as planned, starting with the fact that her insect-control powers didn't follow...

!This fanfic contains examples of the following:

* BroughtDownToBadass: Taylor loses her insect-control powers after being sent back to the past. Doesn't stop her from kicking arse.
* MagicFeather: [[spoiler:The tapes Taylor use to put herself into the state needed to contact Lisa aren't actually needed.]]
* SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong: What Taylor's trying to do. Time will tell how it works out.
