Chapter 21: A new Ability

The vibration from my bed night stand woke me up. I rolled over and grabbed my phone. It was already past noon. How had I slept for this long? I opened the text from Cassie. It said she was fine, but needed to talk to me.  I ran a hand through my hair. Why had I gone home instead of watching over her? What if something bad had happened? A restless feeling settled over me and I jumped out of the bed. The need to see Cassie emplified. I turned into a crow and flew over to Cassie’s house. She wasn’t home. Should I wait for her? After all she had told me that she was fine. Unsure what to do, I took to the sky, scanning the area for anything that may be out of place. Finding nothing out of the ordinary, I widened my search. It was late in the afternoon when I spotted Leah’s

Chapter 22: An Emotional Evening

I landed in the tree just as Leah’s car pulled up on the driveway. Cassie didn’t look up when she got out of the car, but I hadn't expected her to, as I had only just said goodbye to them before they left my house.    The window to her room opened a few moments later and Cassie looked out from it and waved at me before closing it again. Why hadn’t she left the window open for me? Was she fed up that I was always following her around? I took a deep breath, maybe it had something to do with the house or Abigail? I rubbed my beak against the branch, wishing she could open up to me and tell me how she felt about everything that was going on.   I thought about everything that had happened and what Cassie had told me about her and Leah’s day yesterday, when chills went down my spine. Something was wrong. My chest tightened and it beca

Chapter 23: Elemental Magic

I’d been asleep on the blanket by the window when Cassie's cheerful good morning greeting woke me up. It warmed my heart that she seemed to have recovered from the previous day. Not long after she had gone downstairs, the front door opened. I watched as Leah and Cassie got in the car. Where were they going? It was too early for them to be going to school. I started to follow, but had second thoughts. Leah would be able to handle herself and Cassie, besides I'd see them in school soon enough. I changed my course and flew home. I’d ask Cassie about the trip later.  I checked my phone after I arrived at my house. Cassie had sent me a text, telling me that she wouldn't be in school today and if I could meet her in a clearing in the woods in a couple of hours.

Chapter 24: The Official Date

I spent some time trying to find the right outfit. I wanted to look a bit dressed up but at the same time I didn't want it to look like I was trying too hard. When I was finally happy with what I was wearing. I looked at myself in the mirror and took a deep breath. It was really happening. I picked up my car keys and fidgeted with them as I made my way down to the garage to get my car and drive over to Cassie's house. I had booked us a table at a restaurant by a river. It looked nice and cosy with an outdoor terrace overlooking the scenery. My first thought was to go somewhere very fancy, mainly to show off, but I had realised that it wasn't Cassie's style, and she would likely appreciate this place better. I checked that I had the rose I'd bought for Cassie when I neared the house.  I had been taught never to arrive empty handed when you take someone ou

Chapter 25: A Busy Mind

I perched on the blanket by the window and listened to Cassie’s slow steady breaths. It had been a perfect evening. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes, only to open them again. I moved around on the blanket. Ws Cassie really an empath? How did Leah have an affinity for all four elements? Who were her parents? Why hadn’t Nick texted back yet? Unable to relax, I took a trip around the neighbourhood to clear my mind. I threw out my energy without a second thought. It had become a habit. I picked up on the strange energy that surrounded the house without problem. How was this possible? I week ago I didn’t even know it existed. Maybe Freya would know? I didn't like to depend on her, but this was beyond me. I needed to talk to her about the energy and if she knew anything about Leah. I hadn't been able to figure out how Leah had acquired an affinity for all th

Chapter 26: A Magical tree

We continued training until Leah turned up. We went out to the driveway to greet her. Leah got out of the car, and skipped over to us with a smile. Magic energy radiated from her, a stark contrast from the neutral energy that normally surrounded her due to the enchantment on the house. "How's the magic coming along?" I asked. "Great." Leah’s smile became wider. She gave Cassie a hug. "I have something to show you that I managed to do today, it's really cool.” She glanced around the house. “ Do you have a garden?" “Of course. Follow me.” I walked around the house, with Leah and Cassie following behind.  Leah's eyes got bigger when we entered the back garden, taking in all the scenery. I guess it is not exactly normal to have a forest at the back of the house.

Chapter 27: An Evening Without Cassie

I caught up with Cassie at school the next day. She gave me a smile which faded as I got closer. Knots appeared in my stomach. I grabbed her hand and pulled her to the side. “Are you okay? Did anything happen?” She bit her lip and scanned the corridor before meeting my gaze. “I’m sorry. It’s just...” She fidgeted with her necklace. “I can’t see you today after school. I promised Leah I would spend time with her.” My body relaxed. I gave her a reassuring smile. “You don't need to feel bad or worried about wanting to hang out with your other friends.” I put my arm around her. “You are allowed to have a life outside of us. I don't expect you to spend all your time with me"  She leaned against me and let out a loud breath. "Thank you.

Chapter 28: Feeling the Energy

After the last class, me and Cassie were making our way over to Leah's car. I told Cassie to go with Leah, as it made more sense to have her drive to mine. After they drove away, I went to find a less crowded area, where I turned into a crow and flew home. I smiled to myself as I waited for them to turn up. Who would have thought that flying was faster than driving, but I guess it helped that I could fly above the trees and buildings instead of following the roads. After they arrived, we walked through the house and out to the garden. I double checked that the protection spells were still in place before I spoke up. “I don’t know if Cassie told you, but there is a strange energy surrounding your house. Which is why I lost my cool when I realised that you had been talking about magic in the house. I don't know who

Chapter 29: A Pentagram of Energy

I soared over the town and landed a bit further down the road before transforming back to my human form. I walked towards the house, Leah caught up to me and I joined them on the driveway.  I turned to Leah. "I'm not sure where the best place would be to sense the energy. I'm usually in the air. Maybe you can walk around the house after you get a feel for it."  Leah nodded. She closed her eyes and put her hands in front of her, making her way around the house. Cassie and I followed her at a distance. Every now and again Leah would stop and feel around the ground, telling us that the energy was denser in those areas. I marked them up with some stones that I found lying around. When Leah was done, I had concluded that there were five spots of more concentrated energy. I had a sense of foreboding that we were not

Chapter 30: A Spell to Recall Memories

I tried to move, but my arm was pinned down. I bolted up, opened my eyes, ready to summon my weapon and defend myself. I wasn’t going to go down without a fight. The room seemed familiar. My gaze settled on Cassie and my body relaxed. She stared at me with building eyes. Her hand over her mouth. “What happened?” I let out a nervous laugh and scratched my forehead. “Sorry. I’m a bit jumpy in the mornings.” It was an understatement. I wasn't used to waking up next to someone else. Leah gave her body a stretch. “Good morning.” She looked from me to Cassie. “Did I miss something?” I glanced over at Cassie, wondering if she would mention anything to Leah about me freaking out, but she stayed quiet.
