However, Nowhere had not counted with Kim's special abilities, which meant her tranquiliser drug had no effect on Jenny's friend. Forced to flee through [[shift]]ing, Nowhere was pursued by Everywhere through several landscapes. Realising sunlight was Kim's weakness and Kim was Jenny's, Nowhere shifted to the Giza desert at high noon, forcing Everywhere to shift Kim somewhere shady instead of continuing to try to capture Nowhere. However, Nowhere did not keep the upper hand for long; foolishly choosing to pursue Everywhere in turn to the cool jungle she had chosen as the place to take Kim, she realised too late that it was a ''prehistoric'' jungle and was mauled to death by a dinosaur. Kim later examined her body, finding the surgical scar above her left ear which revealed she was ''not'' the original Jenny Nowhere. Shaken by these revelations, Jenny Everywhere and Kim agreed to go back home for another drink — with no music.

==== Facing the Vampire King ==== | |||
Kim participated in a raid on the lair of [[the Vampire King]] after he “came to town”, alongside her friends [[Kim#Jenny's roommate|Jenny Everywhere]] and [[Fiona]], a [[werewolf]]. Jenny was the last of the three to enter the fray, using explosives to break her way into the lair, which her two friends had already managed to infiltrate. She found that Fiona had already defeated the King's two [[revenant]] guards, and ran ahead to the throne room where Kim was engaged in one-on-one combat with the King, trying to get him with a wooden stake. However, they were too evenly-matched and the killing blow was ultimately delivered by Jenny herself using wooden bullets fired from a shotgun. After the dust literally cleared, Fiona played one last part in the day's adventures by informing her that she still smelled one live vampiric presence in the dungeon, allowing Jenny and Kim to locate the captive [[Ulysses Dumas]]; Kim ripped the steel door out of its hinges to get to him, once again impressing Jenny with her strength. When it became apparent that Ulysses may have been turned into a vampire himself, she declared him Kim's problem. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Camera Shy (short story)|Camera Shy]]'') | |||
==== Ulysses Dumas and the Eye of Tripoli ==== | ==== Ulysses Dumas and the Eye of Tripoli ==== | ||
Six months later, now into the next year, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Camera Shy (short story)|Camera Shy]]'') Jenny had to “stay up until dawn” to save the Internet from the [[Eye of Tripoli]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Camera Shy (short story)|Camera Shy]]'', ''[[Paying It Forward (novel)|Paying It Forward]]'') The next morning, she was woken up by a phone callf rom [[Ulysses Dumas]], the musician she'd saved from the Vampire King, who said he had an “unusual” problem which he hoped she could help him deal with. She arranged to meet him the following night at the [[Faux Fur End]]. There, she learned from Dumas that he had been turned into a [[vampire]] himself; although he had mostly made his peace with it, he wondered how he could continue his musical career when cameras could often not detect him (due to vampires' invisibility in mirrors). Before she could think of a solution, she was called away on another adventurer: it was “raining frogs at the mosque again”. She arranged to meet Dumas again a few days later, and, this time, brought [[Kim#Jenny's roommate|Kim]], who was able to offer a solution to his problem.
