Chapter Seven: Control

“I knew it!” Triana yelled. “I knew there was something about you, Felix. I just couldn’t put my finger on it.”

I wanted to tell her to quiet down, but I haven’t seen my sister this excited in quite a while. As long as she didn’t say anything that would reveal what we were, then her volume was fine.

Felix chuckled, sitting down on her bed and rubbing his eyes. We had been out all night, and now that the sun was up, we wanted nothing more than to go to sleep. “Sorry that I waited so long before telling you. I just didn’t know when it would be the best time.”

“That’s okay,” she said, plopping down next to him. “I’m just happy that you gave me the piece of the puzzle or else I would still be looking everywhere.”

The three of us laughed together. Nothing was actually funny, but we were each experiencing something good. Something like relief.

“So, what do we do now?” Triana asked in a lowered voice. “How do we find that map you guys mentioned?”

Felix and I glanced at one another, and then turned to Triana. Neither of us had an answer.

“Why don’t you three try going out on All Hallows’ Eve?” Ms. Jones suggested from the opening of the doorway.

The three of us snapped our eyes to her. Looking down at her feet, I found that she was wearing black house shoes this morning instead of heels. Even still, we should have been able to hear her walking down the hall. She must’ve been very light on her feet.

It was odd, knowing that a Normal knew something about us. I was taught to never trust a Normal with the secrets of the witches, but it was hard not to trust someone with such a kind smile and a warm demeanor to match.

Ms. Jones grinned at me. “Don’t act so surprised. I saw you and Felix walking in this morning. I’m sure that you know just about everything now.”

Felix nodded. “Yeah, we talked.”

“And I heard you guys discussing that map you mentioned a while ago, right?”

The three of us nodded.

“Well, I’m sure you’ve learned this in your…” she looked down the hallway. “From where you’ve come from, but All Hallows’ Eve is the best night for the three of you to search for it.” She leaned her head in with a grin planted on her lips and whispered, “There’s more magic in the air.”

The three of us looked at each other, thinking the same thing. We could try and connect with our maps using the magic around us. I honestly didn’t know how we could’ve forgotten All Hallows’ Eve. I mean, that was one of our biggest celebrations back home, and I do remember feeling the magic practically flowing through my veins. Maybe somehow, using that day would work?

“So, when is it?” Felix asked.

“Tomorrow.” Ms. Jones chuckled. “So, go out in the woods and figure something out at Midnight. That’s technically the start of All Hallows’ Eve.
