CHAPTER 12

It’d been a little over two months since I’d stupidly agreed (Linc’s words) to take the tests with the other P1s.

Two months since Felecia and I had released the demon into the South Tower. And, true to my word, I’d kept my distance from her at all costs, even hiding in restrooms and offices if I caught a glimpse of her when I was alone. It wasn’t the ideal situation, and I hated that I felt like I was trying to hide, but it was either that or fight with her and really get in some serious trouble.

That was the last thing I wanted to do. I needed to pass my tests, and if that meant hiding when I had to and eating dinner later than normal, then that’s what I’d do, and what I’d continue to do.

“Are you ready?” Linc asked me.

“For tomorrow? Yeah,” I said with a nod. Tomorrow was our Demonology exam. Three weeks after agreeing to take the tests with the others, I’d managed to not only catch up but had ended up ahead. “But for the other tests? Not so much.” And I wasn’t even sure when they were. None of the other teachers had told us when our other exams would be, and when we asked, they all said the same thing about us knowing when they knew.

We’d decided to take an hour break from studying and had gone to the catwalk. It’d become one of my favorite spots. The view of New Orlando was great and it was peaceful. Or it had been until he mentioned the darn exams again. I really wasn’t worried about tomorrow, but I wasn’t so sure about the others.

“What do you think will happen if I fail?” I asked, turning to face him better. “Do you think Greene will actually let me stay, or will he make me start over again? What if, after my big—and yes, I know, stupid—” I added preemptively, knowing he’d throw that in there if I didn’t, “—declaration of ‘I’ll prove I belong here’, I fail and he decides to send me back?”

“I don’t think he will. For one, I’ve never heard of anyone failing a Phase—though I imagine it is possible.” He shook his head when I glared. “And two, he handpicked you, Jade. Whether you like it or not, agree or disagree, that holds some clout with him.”

“Maybe,” I said half-heartedly.

Would clout alone be enough to keep me here? I still had three exams after Demonology, and I was behind in most of those classes, despite how much I’d studied. And over the last few months, that’d been a lot. Awake time had turned into study time, and over the last few weeks, I’d been studying more than I’d been sleeping.

Tracking wasn’t as bad as the other classes since I’d gotten pretty good at the scenarios, as both agent and demon. When Mrs. Fletcher declared me a ‘sneaky, sneaky girl’, I’d stopped worrying as much.

Weapons was still hard, but since I hadn’t hurt anyone or cut off any of my own limbs, Mr.
