The dark angel didn’t control me, and the serpents wouldn’t get to keep her forever. Not if I had anything to say about it.

“Pawndemic, a pawn shop in downtown.”

CHAPTER FOURTEEN

The Dragon

The Pawndemic didn’t feel like that far away. After all, travel on the astral plane was a blur of buildings, streets, and signs. I got a little lost in the city, I’d never really gone there that often, always lived on the outskirts where the rent was cheapest. Couldn’t help myself from looking back occasionally to make sure Aislin was still with me, as she didn’t make any footsteps. I knew it was on First Ave…but the problem was that there were different first avenues and a very long road.

“It’s got to be around here somewhere?” Aislin insisted.

“We’re in a weird industrial district…I think it’s less downtown than we thought.”

“It should be close…” She tried to sound assuring.

“How do you know? It all looks the same and my eyes are starting to get tired from trying to focus around all the blurs in the buildings from the passing cars and people.” I didn’t really see the cars or the people, like they were under an invisible cloak but the background distorted every time something moving passed where I was looking.

After all, we were in an alternate astral plane of existence right now; I should’ve accepted it. But the deeper I accepted any of this, the more trouble I seemed to get into. Maybe I shouldn’t have tried to look for my father’s things via astral projection. I was just inviting more magical drama into my life.

“Maybe I don’t want it to be.” Bigger than it was.

Aislin pointed to the sign that looked like a zombie infested war plate reading, Pawndemic. Underneath the sign read the slogan, Delve deep into the brains of a pawn and come out with the treasure of a queen. It was…let’s just say different. I mean it kind of worked…they did buy, sell, and trade the lives of many people in one place.

We both walked through the door, literally. I still couldn’t get over that tingly feeling all over my body when I passed through things. A shiver ran down my spine and I heard a little jingle from the door as if I had opened it myself. The bells hung from the door frame so that they were flicked by the edge of the door’s corner announcing a new customer. I
