After we stuffed ourselves silly we also had a working prototype. Sean grabbed my hand and we started dancing to Santana’s “Into the Night” that featured Chad Kroeger. I sent out the dogs to flame up and melt the snow and ice on the driveway so we could test it on there.

“We need to know what tier these crystals are at,” Zack reminded me as he nodded to the boxes on my workbench.

“Maybe we don’t need all the power of tier seven,” I countered. “Or the higher the tier the longer it lasts? They’ve changed color at least twice, so we’ve got some juice enough to try.”

“I saw three colors,” Marshall corrected.

Sean thought he saw four, but no one could agree which four colors then. Unfortunately, none of us knew how to read crystals and see what level they were at.

I brought my bike out of the garage and got on, letting out a slow breath and hitting the button to activate the crystal. I looked out at the guys and saw only frowns. “You can see me, right?”

“Yeah,” Zack admitted with a wince. “Maybe you need to have the engine running and bike going. It’s a full package sort of spell you built there, Tamsin. I think the crystals need that situation. Maybe?”

It was worth a shot.

I turned it on and cranked the gas before taking off towards the gate. I flipped around and headed back for the garages, hitting the button when I was about halfway and smiling brightly when I heard several whoops and hollers.

So, we got a working prototype to hide me, but what about the barrier? And we’d need to test how long and power levels.

“Where’s Ms. Vale?” Professor White asked from near the portal. “We got nosy again.”

“We don’t know,” Zack said proudly. “That’s what she was working on.”

“Can you hear me?” I called, smiling when no one reacted. I stopped in front of the open garages and the minute I shut off the bike people flinched or jumped that they saw me. “Wicked. Now we just need to test the barriers.”

“And try it out during daytime,” Ray added. “I’m not knocking your idea, but it’s much easier to use a shadows rune at night than during the day.”

“Fair enough,” I accepted as I got off. “We need to know the tier and see how long for sure—”

“The crystals changed color again,” Marshall called from the workbench. “It’s like you need the combo of happy, exciting like new to you, and fuel to tier them up.”

“That’s pretty…” I trailed off when I saw we had a few other professors who came that didn’t know I was a fairy. “Really? Do you guys just drop in on other students’ houses like this? No, it would be rude, and parents would balk.”

A few flinched at my tone, but I smiled to take the bite out of my words as I flipped on my telepathy and told Sean to close the garage doors since he was there. The problem was if people stepped outside and saw the front of the house or the address.
