‘The security ward is working, isn’t it?’ I whispered, forty-five minutes later.

Brittany nodded, her eyes drowsy.

‘It’s just very quiet down there,’ I said.

Brittany shrugged.

‘I might have whispered a sedation spell whilst you were throwing insults back and forth,’ she said with a shrug.

‘I didn’t think it worked on vampires?’ I asked.

‘It doesn’t normally, but I guess it’s the combined effect of her having a bellyful of blood, being a sleepy newborn and my spell.’

‘Well let’s get our spell done before she wakes up,’ I said, jumping up from the floor and cracking my fingers. ‘I feel so energised I could power half of Manchester.’

‘Do you think we need to do it from the sky… like, above the house?’ Brittany asked after we had skimmed through the spell basics again in my Book of Shadows.

I nodded.

‘That’s how the Council does it, isn’t it? I think we should fly up towards the ley line and then hover nearer their rooftop. It will be like when we created the security ward for this house…’

‘Except we’re changing their memories, instead of creating a giant intruder alarm,’ she added quietly.

I nodded.

‘Let’s get it over with.’

We opened my window and I crawled out, balancing on the narrow ledge as easily as a bird.

‘Come on,’ I beckoned to Brittany. ‘Hold onto me and I’ll jump us up to the roof. It will be safer there to fly up.’

Brittany climbed out, squeezing her eyes shut.

‘I don’t like this. I much prefer to fly up from ground level,’ she complained.

‘Yes, but we’re more likely to get spotted in the middle of the lawn and we don’t want to go and wake the sleeping monster either. Stop being a mardy-pants and hang on!’

I grabbed her and half leapt, half crawled up the side of the house, landing us safely on the back of the roof.

‘When you do things like that I wonder how on earth we are best friends… I mean, you are totally a vampire… like a real vampyre-vampire!’

‘Well, duh, what an astute observation… you ninny! Does it make you feel happier when I do this?’ I said, flexing my knees and flying up into the ley lines above our heads.

She laughed and flew up after me.

‘Yes, very much so. Please refrain from freakish vampire-related behaviour.’

We smiled at each other and floated over the neighbour’s house, staying well hidden in the low morning mist.

‘It would be easier if we stood on his roof,’ Brittany said, looking down on the house some fifty feet below us. ‘It’s hard to concentrate on floating and on the spell at the same time.’

We looked about us, but the street was empty.

‘Okay, but we need to stay right back. We should be fairly well hidden if we stay on the far slope, behind the chimney,’ I said, as we lowered ourselves down.

I grabbed her hands and we faced each other, placing our palms together, pooling our energy. The magic crackled around us and the clouds began to condense above our heads, attracted to the electricity.
