Kyle stayed at Camella 3 West for the next few days, camping out in Alex's room at night and

going to meals with Lindy, only separating from her for classes and study sections. They had sex again

the next day, but Kyle didn't transfer her any energy, it was sex just for the sake of how attracted to

each other they were. They did it again the next day, again with no power boost, and Lindy seemed

fine. She finally told Ms. Finch about the outages and went for a test or two over at Faiella House, but

they didn't find anything, not even much evidence of her having been drained. Overworked and

stressed out, the healers said. It sometimes happened.

Kyle spent the weekend with her, too, and he hadn't had that much sex in such a short span of time

since that semester when he'd been seeing Ciara and working with Marjory at the same time. While

sharing a pizza with everyone on Sunday afternoon, he wondered, not for the first time, what might

have been different if he'd never drawn that Ace of Swords and just stayed at Camella House from the

beginning. He would have been Alex's roommate, probably, and he probably would have still dated the

women he did—Jess, Ciara, Marjory, Lindy.

He wouldn't have even been on Frost's radar. They would have never interacted outside of class;

Frost wouldn't have felt threatened by him and might not have even noticed him. Kyle might not have

even figured out he was a lightning rod until much later... he might never have caught Michael...

"Earth to Kyle?"

"Hm?" Kyle looked up from his half-eaten slice to see Jess standing there. "Hey."

"Hey. You doing okay? You looked a million miles away."

"Oh, yeah. Just caught in a never-ending cascade of what-ifs. Studying prophecies will do that, I guess." He took a bite of pizza. "Hey, how's your uncle doing? The doomsday magical biology guy?"

She crossed her arms and leaned against the wall. "He still thinks the Burning Days are coming,

but he's reached the point where he realizes he can't do anything to stop it if they are. So there's no

point in running around, panicking, or making me leave school. But I did want to tell you something."

"Oh?"

"I'm still putting in a few hours a week at Faiella House. Lindy's not the only one we've seen."

Kyle had heard rumors all summer, too, while traveling around, about people having problems.

"Yeah?"

"Yeah. On the other hand they say that the power of suggestion leads to a lot of people blocking

themselves, so if they believe they might lose their power... it becomes a..."

"Self-fulfilling prophecy?" he quipped, and they both smiled wryly. "Does your uncle have a

prediction when the end is supposed to come?"

"He's not sure. A couple of Nummies are walking around right now without the Sight, I hear.

Fortunately for them, their house is visible." She shrugged. "I'm a little scared, but he's right. What can

we do about it? If there's going to be a massive shift in the flow of magic... if we all lose our power...

will we disappear
