Chapter Twelve

It takes a week to prepare for the jump, mostly because I have to learn to transport myself from place to place so that I don’t have to depend on the demons to do it for me. If an angel were to do it, I’d be sensed immediately and captured.

Gabe, the oldest student I’m friends with, appears in my room every night and runs through the spells with me so I can learn to teleport through space and time. The longer we practice, the further he sends me. At first, it’s just from one end of my bedroom to the other.

The last practice jump I make before we set our plan in motion lands me in Scotland, in the bedroom of a castle. There’s a young woman inside, asleep in her bed. The room is lit by candles, and she’s wearing something that looks straight out of a movie. It’s the year 1561, and that girl is Mary, Queen of Scotts.

Holy shit.

I let out a giddy laugh, and Mary stirs. Before she can spot me, I whisper the spell and appear back in my bedroom.

“Well?” Gabe asks, leaning against the windowsill.

I grin. “That was awesome.”

He nods. “Well, I think you’re ready. Good luck. I hope I see you soon.”

I wrap my arms around myself and nod. “Thanks, Gabe.” Gabe had been the first friend I met when I arrived at Theaa Academy. If the plan succeeds, I’ll never get to see him again.

He wraps me in a reassuring hug, and I return it with a sigh.

“I hope it works,” I mumble into his shirt. He pulls away, the ghost of a smile on his lips.

“It will,” he says. He sounds so sure of it that I don’t question him.

It has to work. We have one shot at this. If I fail, then the fate of the universe is at stake.

As soon as Gabe disappears, I take one final look around my room, taking it all in. I hated this place growing up, and I hated living with my dad. Now that he’s trying, though, I’m sad to go.

I scrawl a note on a sheet of paper and place it on the the fridge under a magnet, along with a gift I got him during one of my lower-end practices earlier in the week. He should notice it as soon as he gets out of bed.

If I survive, I’ll come back home to visit. He’ll get better. If I don’t, though, I want him to be okay.

I whisper the words that will take me away from here and leave this rickety home, probably for the last time.

Dad,

I’m going to be okay.

I bought two lottery tickets before I left. This one is for you.

Love,

Avery
