It's the first time someone's tried to enter the church since she's been back, and yeah, it kind of surprises her.
Sitting there on the front pew, her open book in her hand, Beth listens for a minute.
The amazons wouldn't bother with just trying to open the front doors. They'd get down to business, maybe shoot an arrow through another one of her goddamn windows. She doesn't expect decorum from those chicks.
Whoever it is will probably go away when they realize the doors are locked.
There's another push on the door, this one harder, and Beth quietly closes her book, putting it down, and stands up, just waiting.
They can't get in. They'll have to leave.

This shouldn't be happening, and it's all going so damn fast.
This was always a pretty safe place and what do they want and why is this chick trying to grab her arm and what the hell is their definition of secure?
The nun steps in front of Beth, blocking her view of Hero, just as the guard's hand leaves her arm. "Just breathe normally. The more you fight it, the worse the side effects will be."
The what?
Beth doesn't have a chance to question or to scream. There's just a muffled protest from her as the guard covers her mouth and nose with a cloth.
"Blessings on this journey," the nun tells her, and she wants to say go to hell, wants to say they'll fucking regret it if they hurt her or her baby or, hell, even Hero, but her eyelids are drooping and her limbs are going limp even as she struggles against it, breathing anything but normally.
Her body slumps.
