We take our seats and I couldn't stop thinking about what just happened, Debbie coughs and I turn to her,

"How do you feel Eris?" She grins like a maniac, I couldn't say anything but blush and look at my feet. This was too much for me. She waves her phone in front of me and I heave a heavy sigh

I knew this weekend won't be easy for me.

Other kids perform and it's Bryan's turn, he takes in a deep breath as the instrumentals start, he turns his cap backward holding the Mic tightly,

"She just wants to flirt so I flirt right back" he starts and everyone goes 'aahhhhh', he's performing Flirt by NEFFEX and it was for a special girl. Basically every teenage boy knew that song.

Debbie is now a burning candle as her crush sang and bust moves all for her, I grab my phone and press the record button as I cheered Bryan on. Sweet payback.

He drags her to the front of the stage to dance with him and from the looks of it she's about to pass out from the cuteness overload. And over blushing.

"I see what these two Boys are doing here!" Mr. Vincent grins to a point of no return, "you shameless boys!" Everyone laughs at his remark and Bryan and Daylon give a mock bow,

"It's not our fault, our girls are special to us" Bryan holds Debbie's shoulders,

"Our?" We both echo and Daylon comes to hold my hand,

"We're friends aren't we?" He gives me the best smile on earth,

"Yeah but that doesn't mean you own us!" I retaliate,

"Yeah!" Debbie pushes Bryan away and folds her arms in protest,

"So should we try other methods?" Bryan asks and everybody grabs it and bursts out laughing. They both give a stupid smirk and my sister and I are flushed,

"Why you?!" I try to punch Daylon and she grabs a guitar about to smash it on his head but like ninjas, they dodge it and run away.

And the whole scenario plays. We chase. They run.

I crash on my bed and smile, "today was crazy" I laugh to myself and brush my fingers through my hair. My phone beeps and I reach to grab it,

Debbie: Bryan and I are a thing now!!! I'm so happy, he's taking me out for dinner tonight

Me: no way!!! That's amazing but don't let him kiss you just yet, make him beg for it

Debbie: advice taken

I get a message from Daylon,

Daylon: hey Eris my mom bought this awesome history textbook, you should go buy it. It's really easy to read. History explained by Lucas Devon, edition 12. It'll really help, trust me.

Me: thanks for having my back

I grab a jacket and some money and head to the nearest book shop, I greet the desk attendant and give him the name of the book I wanted to buy. He gives me directions and I go to find my book.

It's on the top shelf and I had to stand on a chair to reach it, I grab the book but another falls to the ground. I drop the history textbook on the reading table and pick the other book that fell.

I inspect its old cover and design and check for the author and to my surprise, there was no author name on it. I open the first page and see a black feather in the middle of the page,

"Islana?" I say and rush to the table to take a better look at the book, I grab the feather and place it aside. I open the pages and see pages full of spells and potion recipes and chants and everything a sorceress needs to become powerful.

My tips tremble in disbelief and I close the book back immediately. I slip the feather into my jacket and head to the desk attendant.

"Are these the books you want?" He asks me to make sure, I mean I was buying an ancient spellbook that technically no one wanted so it's something to be concerned about. He'll probably think I'm a witch now.

"Yes, they are" I nod and bring out some cash, "how much?"

"$200"

"Wow just for two books" I mutter under my breath sarcastically and pay him. I quickly exit the book store and head home straight to examine the book in privacy.

I lock the door behind me and rush up to my bedroom, I shut the door and open the windows to let the cool evening breeze and the enchanting rays of light from the moon in.

I bring out the feather and remove my makeshift bracelet from my wrist, I place the feather beside the ones on my bracelet and they resembled it.

So it was Islana. But why does she want me to have this book?

I flip open the pages to see the spells and chants, it all looked pretty old and forgotten, "could these spells actually be real?" I trace the paper, it feels like a thousand years old, I flip to the end of the book and then to the middle,

"Islana what is this?" I mutter under my breath and a strong wind blows into my room and turns the pages of the book, the wind stops and so do the pages, I analyze it and realize it's a chant. I bring the book closer to read the fine but old print,

"A witch's gaze and Hell's blaze" I start and the wind returns stronger than ever and knocks the book out of my hand, "what are you trying to tell me Islana?" I whisper and pick the book, I hide it in my closet and leave it there until further notice.

I was clearly dealing with something I couldn't understand.

But I could only wonder why she made me find the book and that particular page only to knock the book off my hand. I take off my clothes leaving myself in my birth attire and slip into bed.

Dinner? Not hungry. Just curious.

It is Friday and we're rounding up tests. I put my pen down and submit my last test, I walk out of the classroom and exhale,

"Finally" I heave a sigh of relief and walk to my locker to dump my books, I sight Debbie arm in arm with Bryan and I couldn't help but smile. It's nice she got someone to be with, to have a relationship with.

My heart quickly dampens at a sudden remembrance, I shake it off and cast a glance at my sister, she was talking and laughing with her boyfriend. Just the way I used to. I'll break his bones if he hurts her.

I smile a little and go someplace quiet to think, I just needed to think right now. What happened two nights ago still has me worried and I'm not exactly sure what Islana wants from me. It all seems vague.

I close my eyes and an image of a light and fallen angel hand in hand flashes before my eyes, but I don't open them, I keep them closed. I want to know what happens next.

An image of a fallen angel being bound and tortured flashes through my mind, my eyes are still shut but it's getting hard for me to breathe. Another image flashes, and it's those blue eyes I've come to love so much.

"Daylon" I whisper his name with so much affection,

"Yes?" He answers me.
