Chapter 11

Three UMAs stood at one side of the chamber, while two of us, Dom and myself, stood at the other. A clear line of division ran between us, and it sent a sick feeling through me—one I wanted to fix.

"I'm sorry," I said. "I never meant to leave you out. I just... I just needed to act. Time is running out."

"Well, that's just great," Blake interjected. "You find your own way through this mess while the rest of us hope you don't wipe us from existence."

His words punched me in the face, and the three of them watched me as I recovered from it.

"I won't let that happen," I said.

"You have no idea how to control what happens," Blake pressed. "You're putting us all at risk."

I shot my eyes to Poorva's, hoping for a rescue, but her narrowed glare made it clear she was waiting for a better explanation.

"Please," I begged. "If we wait too long, we may lose the chance to save Shane. And to set the events of the past on the right course."

"We need to wait for Ms. Kelly," Blake squeaked like an obedient pup. "She knows what to do."

I shook my head. "No one knows exactly what's right. Don't you see? She's hoping for a chance at the full moon, but there's no guarantee." I looked at each of them. "Our skills have developed to an incredible level. We have the power to do this." My voice took on a new tone of confidence.

Courtney studied me with new curiosity, while Poorva and Blake continued their judging glares.

I continued. "If I can just try the spell in the lost pages, to see if the incantation will work. I just know it's our best chance."

"Ms. Kelly will do that," Blake shot. "At the full moon."

"And why not try sooner. We need as many chances as possible," I pushed.

"Because you have no idea what you're doing," Blake added.

His forceful tone annoyed me like he felt he was above me. It took everything to control my temper.

"I know exactly what I'm doing," I blasted.

He shook his head almost in pity. "Then how do you explain your traipse through the dark mist?"

The sound of my gasp filled the chamber.

"See," he mocked. "You think you have it all under control, but then you get sucked into one of Laney's tricks in two seconds flat."

I was still stuck on the fact that they knew about my episode with Laney.

"Wait," I murmured. "How did you know?"

Blake just shook his head, too annoyed to even speak.

Courtney stepped closer. "It was a soul separation spell, Brynn. She put you in a trance and separated your soul from your body. Stolen souls strengthen the caster's magic. Black mist is the result, making it very easy to identify the spell." She huffed and looked to Blake. "He saw the mist, and then saw you in it."

I closed my eyes, absorbing what she had said.

Laney had tried to steal my soul to strengthen her power.

How could I have been so naive?

But she didn't succeed.
