Chapter 13

She woke up for the first time without a nightmare, which after the day she’d had yesterday probably meant she really was nuts. It was just after six, so she even got a full seven hours sleep. Despite her supposed insanity she felt really good, the soreness in her muscles from last night was gone and she had a deep well of energy.

She popped on the coffee maker and went to her ritual room, the candles all lit with a thought, and for once she wasn’t startled at all at how easy it was. She sat down and crossed her legs. She focused on the candle in front of her, and the goddess. She almost lost it when she slipped easily into a meditative state, simply at the surprise at how easy it was.

She could sense Silva in the back of her mind. The great cat was calm, and quite determined not to disrupt Celia’s thoughts. She sent an internal smile of thanks and started to review everything that happened, both inside her own body, and externally in the world.

In the end, she decided what went on out in the world, was mostly out of her control. All she could really do was control herself. She also determined, though she was forced by circumstances, the investigative work she’d been doing was something she was interested in.

It wasn’t all bad. There weren’t many who truly controlled everything in their lives after all.

She was determined however, that whatever she might be turning into would be someone she could be proud of. She would learn to fight, and she would find a way to reclaim the limit of her magic. The magic part was a little more complicated, Silva’s fear of it was much like a phobia, there was just no using logic to try and defeat it. So what options did that leave?

It also made sense she could use a small amount of magic. Someone afraid of heights would be nervous on the bottom step of a ladder, but probably wouldn’t freak out. However, climb that ladder to the roof and all bets were off, that’s what it must be like for Silva when she tried something requiring too much magical power. It would take time to figure it out.

As far as the rest, she would claim the pieces of her life she could control, and hope the rest worked out. Really, she didn’t have any other choice. It was either that or lie down and die. Her split soul? She didn’t even know where to start.

Lastly, she went over what she had to do… besides fix her magic and soul that is. Learning to fight was on the list, but wasn’t something she could do on her own. She needed to find someone else for the store, and she also needed to read that file on Bruce’s murder. She would need to study up on investigative work; a curious imagination and watching cop shows on television wouldn’t swing it.

She sighed and came out of the meditative state.
