CHAPTER SEVEN

Zee slammed on the brakes too late as the world switched from one forest to another and she crashed into short bushes clustered in front of a giant marble wall.

She clenched her jaw as she fell, training keeping her from screaming in surprise as she half landed on the bushes. She pushed off, scrambling back to her feet, gun still in hand but knife lost to the wilderness.

“Sarah, down!” James yelled from somewhere and she hit the deck, pulling her gun up and looking around with quick, practiced eyes.

The underbrush and trees were thicker here than in the other reality next to the bar, more wild. Something crawled over her arm and she didn’t twitch for fear of attracting attention of whatever James was shouting about.

Weren’t they still invisible?

Flames shot towards her and she raised a shield just in time as they crashed over her.

So that’d be a no on the invisibility thing.

Zee pulled up her sight and focused on the magic. It was a shimmering gold with black sparkles, and something teal flashed just to the side a split second later.

She smacked the flames down and pushed to her feet.

Where the hell were the guys? Or the attackers?

Even with her sight, all she saw was forest.

“James? Nathan?” she screamed.

Nothing.

“Fuck!”

If whatever this was was enough to take out James and a freaking psychic, what chance did she have?

A figure in a black mask jumped through the rip and Zee shot him dead center without thinking. The bullet ricocheted off a shield an inch away from the man’s chest and she shot two more times just in case and threw a fireball, focusing everything on the man.

She felt the shield crack under her pressure just as two more of the masked assholes burst through the rip.

Followed by another asshole, just not masked.

“Zee, how’s tricks?” Kostos said, running up to her and wrapping them in a shield.

She dropped her efforts with a sigh.

Shields had never been her strong suit.

Zee stared up at her rescuer as he twisted his hands in the air, making the shield stronger than a cold war bunker.

He dropped his hands and met her eyes.

If she wasn’t so doped up on adrenaline already, she was pretty sure that one look would have her heart racing all by itself.

“Threatening me then saving me,” she said. “You are a complicated man.”

He shrugged. “Hello to you too. Long time no try to kill you.”

“Well, I’d say get in line, but these guys will probably get you first,” she said.

“I can’t believe you’re holding a party and forgot to invite me,” Kostos said, grin wide and vicious as he raised his arms, and winds grabbed the three and slammed them together.

They bounced off each other, shields firmly back in place, and scattered as a handful of them poured through the rip.

“No, I didn’t,” she said, grinning too as his energy got to her, “but last time I invited you to one, you tried to arrest me… and then kill me.”

“I was surprised, I didn’t expect you to get out of the magic binding handcuffs.
