SHE WAS A MAJESTIC looking woman, with an air of authority. Elana looked over with a warning in her eyes and then grabbed the door flap. They heard the sound of the small drum as someone hit it with the wooden stick. Zoltan hugged Ilonaâs waist ready to take her back to their timeline. Ilona felt the familiar swirling dizziness and let her mind and body immerse into the pleasantly tingling and arousing feeling of time travel.
ILONA SLOWLY OPENED her eyes. Elza and Zoltan were standing in the exact spot in her living room where they stood before they went to see Ema and Elana in the past. It was as if the past evening, night and morning they had spent with them had never happened. Ilona was disoriented for a minute and wondered if it really happened, or if she was dreaming. When she looked at Zoltan and Elza, she realized, judging by their expressions, that indeed it did happen. They time traveled to the past.
Ilona shook her head to clear her mind and turned to Zoltan, âHow do you cope with this?â
He smiled and reached for her hand. âIâm used to it. Jumping to the past for me is like going to the next room. Perhaps, because thatâs the ability I was given, Iâm not sure.â He looked away, a dreamy expression playing on his handsome face.
Ilonaâs heart skipped a beat as she watched Zoltan turning his head, and the soft light shone through his dark hair. She quickly regained her senses and started talking. âI donât want to think of this and lose my mind, so letâs focus on what is happening now.â
Ilona fished out a little ball from the pouch Elana had given her and put it under her tongue. It tasted spicy yet smooth and melted in her mouth in seconds, leaving no trace.
She took another pill out of the pouch and gave it to Zoltan. âWould you take this pill to Rua? And please tell him to come up to the house.â Zoltan understood right away and darted out of the house.
Elza stared at Ilona in astonishment. âIt seems youâre back already, but to me, you never left! I will never understand this.â
âNeither do I, believe me,â Ilona told her. âTake this pill and put it under your tongue. It will protect your mind from the mind reading ability of the Leaders.â Elza complied without question.
By the time Rua came through the back door with Zoltan, they had heard footsteps on the front porch. Ilona went to greet the Leaders. She recognized Csenge at once. Her hair was cut short, and she wore modern clothes, but she appeared to be the woman they saw in the past, just a short time ago. She had the same Leader mark under her left eye.
