CHAPTER 11

I blinked, wiping sweat out of my eye. What had just happened? Where was Kelly? Had someone evaporated her?

I didn’t feel magic, but one second she was there, then she was gone.

But I didn’t have time to think as Bri turned tail and ran, escaping by the closest door leading outside. Dyslexia remained stock still, not attacking, not helping, and sure as hell not watching out for her team.

Bitsi lunged to her feet, releasing a bellow and leaving me sprawled on the floor.

Vaughn threw herself forward in a rolling dive, aiming for the shifter’s legs, but Bitsi was too quick, side stepping our team leader and leaping toward Vaughn’s partner who skittered backwards. Toward me.

I was scrambling to my feet, getting out of the way of the train wreck barreling down on me when Bitsi stumbled and tripped, face planting forward across the gym floor, fetching up right in front of me.

Thank the Great Spirits for small favors. I dived for her back; the goal to immobilize her. That’s all. If I could hold on and press down she might be out of the fray.

But even as I clawed for a good handhold I felt it. Magic flew across me, raining down, jamming my movements, as if I’d suddenly lost all muscle control.

Bitsi twisted, flipping me on my back, smashing her elbow into my gut, snarling inches from my face.

I could see the magic was impacting her, too. Like a rain dousing everyone in the vicinity, only Bitsi’s response was to shift. White rimmed her eyes as her nose started to morph, her hands lengthening, her bones crunching.

And I was beneath her.

Every instinct screamed flee, but she had me pinned down so well escape wasn’t an option. Neither was doing nothing. So what was a third option?

Through a bone-dry mouth I started chanting a wolfbane spell. The only protection spell that came to mind.
