CHAPTER TWELVE

I finished healing a self-inflicted bullet wound and dropped the now useless bandages in the garbage. “There you go,” I said and patted one of the newer members on his healed knee. “You’re good to go.”

“Thanks a lot,” he said sheepishly, sweeping brown locks of hair out of his face as he stood up.

“Ms. Bishop!”

I turned around to find Master Locke hurrying over to me.

“Is everything okay?”

“Yes, yes,” she said, picking up a key that hung on the wall and holding it out for me to take. “I have urgent business to attend to. Would you mind finishing up with the last three patients and locking up behind you?”

“Oh. sure, no problem.” I said, slipping the key into my pocket.

“Wonderful. I have another key, so feel free to bring that one back on your next shift.”

I didn’t have a chance to respond before she exited the infirmary, closing the door behind her.

I healed the remaining three patients and was about to make my way out the door when it dawned on me that I should do some snooping. It seemed like most members spent time in the infirmary, and Master Abbott had mentioned that Master Locke and Papa were initiates together, so it would make sense for them to communicate. He might have even confided in her, or she could have been the one to abduct him.

The only private area in the infirmary was Master Locke’s office, so I ducked inside there first. Immaculate was the word that came to mind when looking around her personal space. There wasn't a speck of dust to be found on any surface in the tiny room. There were sets of filing cabinets lining the wall to my right, and a glass desk situated directly in the middle of the room. It had a black-colored map of the world covering the front of the desk and a computer sitting on top. The only chair in the room was behind the desk and I sank into it and lifted the laptop screen.

To my surprise, there was no password required to gain entrance and I clicked on the files folder. Most of the information I found was regarding healing and new techniques she was attempting to master. I had to hand it to her, Master Locke was nothing if not efficient. As I was scrolling through her files—which were alphabetically organized—I noticed one titled Bishop, Lenna.

What in the world?

I clicked on the file and saw each detail I had divulged regarding my abilities.

Bishop, Lenna

Abilities

Healing: Ms. Bishop is able to heal herself and others with minimal, if any, drain to her energy. This is the first documented case of a healing ability that manifested on such a level. More testing is advised.

Glowing of Extremities: Still undetermined. I would infer that it must be a powerful defensive gift. Advised Master Wilde and Master Abbott to put extreme pressure on her to bring out the gift. It could be volatile, so caution is recommended.

Summary: Ms. Bishop’s blood should be tested against all previous Guild members to check for possible relation.
