Chapter Seventeen

I needed a fogged-up-by-cold-air window pane. I decided on Walmart. There are many strange creatures and characters that go in and out of Walmart on a daily basis, and I hoped I would be able to pull this one off. I was still dreading the rent-a-van part of my to do list, I did not like the thought that I would soon be driving again, so I hoofed it about a mile to the local Walmart and went straight to the frozen goods section. The pizza aisle looked very promising with several fogged up windows. As unobtrusively as possible, I set wards at both ends that would discourage folks from going down that aisle, a sort of, “this is not the pizza droids aisle you are looking for” section.

Then I had to wait about ten minutes as one rather strange lady had to read the ingredients on almost a dozen different pizza boxes to make her selection and leave the aisle.

I opened the door that offered the most cold fogginess and wrote the Faerie poem in the fae language, inverted as if seen in a mirror.

Then I spoke the poem aloud and gave it a little magical push, thinking Winter Queen and willing my spell to connect. Her image appeared immediately, she looked up, saw me and smiled.

“I have been waiting for your call, Jade,” she said.

“Sorry for the delay, your Grace,” I replied. I could not refer to her as my Queen as I was a member of the Summer Court. “I seem to have gotten quite popular all of a sudden.”

“Make no mistake about it,” the Winter Queen said, “what we have here is another war, this time a war on all of us in the supernatural community, a war that has the sole purpose of eliminating any power and influence we have in your world. The Summer Queen has spoken to me extensively about you and given me the information you provided her. We have been betrayed by a member of my court. I intend to take a hand in this matter personally. We have made great strides since the fae wars, and now all that work is going to come crashing down if we don’t expose this conspiracy for what it is. In this matter, think of me as an ally. I have discussed this with your Queen and I will partner with you to resolve this issue.”

“I have also partnered with London Jane,” I answered.

“Then we shall indeed make a formidable trio,” she replied and held out her hand to me.

“Your face and your beauty is well known here,” I said, hesitating. I did not want to expose us.

“I have prepared a bit of a glamour that you might appreciate,” she replied, so I took her hand and drew her to me.

Her glamour was very impressive. Standing next to me, was well, me. My identical twin. People would notice yet not even begin to think of us as the Winter Queen and Jade, just as a set of attractive female twins.
