HOTARUA few mornings after, it's tense in our room, with neither lan nor I looking at the other. Mac does the opposite, repeatedly looking from one of us to the other"Are you guys fighting?"Instead of looking at him, I meet larr's sulky gaze. "Of course not"Wouldn't dream of it. We just pressed pause""Yes. No need to be bitter about the situation in the least"Standing up, lan puts a hand on his hip. "People could have gotten hurt."If he thinks giving me attitude is enough to make me back down, he's misjudged our relationship. "It was an accident Let it go.""If it was an accident, tell the teachers. They'll understand. It won't affect your points with them.""I'm sure they will right after they give each of us a critical warning. Do you want that?"Saying nothing, he crosses his arms and just stands there. Stubborn bastard."I don't have time for this Spirituality is about to start."And I spend it doing the same thing as always - mindlessly glaring at my crystal orb. Everyone

"I wanted to cast a spell, and wanted something to help me with it." I go on to describe just what happened, what was intended, and the fact that I began the Rule of Three anyway. Once I'm done, Erin's jaw is clenched tight."Hecate? You used a circle to summon Hecate?""Yes." I already said this. What's wrong?"From one of my books?""Yes..?""Hotaru, there was no such circle in any of my books""What? What is she talking about? "I'm not lying-""I'm not saying you are," she cuts in. "I'm saying somebody messed with the books-somebody who wanted the summoning of Hecate to be attempted. I just want to know how they knew which book to do it to. I checked them all and only yours is missing the page. The others are all normal. Who have you told your plans to?""Nobody" Which is true. Absolutely all my plans for revenge are mine alone. There's no need to involve others in it."Think. Somebody must have known. That's the only explanation""Nobody knew.""This isn't a game!" she screams, a

Erin maintains eye contact for an uncomfortable amount of time, then sighs and palms her own face. "Might I ask why?"There's no sense in lying about any of it. I'll keep the names of the others out of it, I guess, but that's as much as I'm able to reel it in."I wanted to cast a spell, and wanted something to help me with it." I go on to describe just what happened, what was intended, and the fact that I began the Rule of Three anyway. Once I'm done, Erin's jaw is clenched tight."Hecate?

Chapter 25

The Witch's Revenge /Kaikazima4

I'm watching from afar as a young woman is approached by a wolf. For some reason, she isn't afraid of the beast at all, which it appears to sense. The wolf approaches slowly, its head hanging low. She reaches for it with her hand, causing the beast to let out a low growl. This isn't enough to deter the woman, who crouches down and smiles. "It's okay I won't hurt you." The wolf barks once, then pounces. When I wake up, I'm covered in cold sweat, my hair plastered to the sides of my face. The sheets are practically glued to my body due to how soaked they are. Ugh, it smells awful. I'll have to get them cleaned immediately. I don't bother getting dressed right away after leaving the bed. Let Mac and lan stare for a moment if they'd like. I certainly have nothing to hide. "You're soaked" Mac notices, frowning. "Are you sick? Happened to me once when I had a fever."

This time, rather than create a shield, she punches my attack. Something happens to it something similar to the effect the shield has and the blast falls apart. I test her again, and she effortlessly repeats the action. That's the same protective spell Mac can use. I don't recall seeing her use it against him during our team fight. 1 guess I'm not the only one full of surprises." With a smirk on her face, she sends two attacks at me at once, which I break apart with a single shield. Her third attack goes under it, aiming to get me off my feet. I simply raise my foot a little, releasing raw magic energy from it just as I can from my hands. It's clumsier, but just good enough to cause her attack to fail attack her again, but instead of blocking, Rosa just dives under it, rolling across the floor. Using the momentum, she throws a punch at me, red energy flying out of her fist. Inste

"All I feel is that thing Inclining my head toward the back door, I shudder once more. Why keep something like that in a school full of children? What would it have done to us, exactly? And what does witches need guarding from? Who else but a witch would have the need for those books? Are there others, then, outside this coven? "No, I'm serious" Rosa narrows her eyes, her magic strengthening her body, as though she can feel an attack coming "I think someone's in here with us." I follow her gaze wherever it lands, but just can't pick up on whatever it is she's picking up on. "What does it feel like? Another witch? "No, it's It's kind of like that thing in the back, but different" "Speak sense, please." "It's not a person, but a thing but this one isn't cold. This one's hot, I think. It's starting to make me sweat" Hot? Read more

"But then how" "They decide how much power to give When they visit our world, they dorit do so in their true forms. Those are too big-too powerful for our world. They would end reality simply by entering it. Thus, they came up with the avatars Each god breaks off a tiny portion of themselves, then flings it from the Other Side to our world. This piece of power becomes something an animal, a person, a building, or even a part of nature allowing the Old One to interact with us without killing us all." So, the more power they break off, the quicker our magic evolves, lan makes the point only a second after I think of it, Ling confirming it. "So, some of us start on level one, while the lucky ones are level fifty from the get-go? Seems unfair" The professor is quiet for a moment, looking at me weirdly. What? I was paying attention. Honestly, I was! This is one of the few lessons of his I actually listene

The moment the day starts, I head into town. As I'm one of the students capable of flight, I use the broom to get there, making me among the first to reach Sunshire. The only one who arrives before me is Roger, with freakin' Diana being right behind me.Now, we have no idea what the key looks like or where it is. I doubt they are all in the same location, as then the first one to find theirs could tell their friends where to look. Most likely, each key is hidden in a specific place.But there's over six-hundred students, and this really isn't that big of a place. Where on earth could they hide all the keys? Should I watch Diana and see what solution she comes up with?Lef's see. If I'm assuming the key I need is in a specific place, there must be a way for me to discover it. They wouldn't just count on us each grabbing a random key. There has to be a way to know. How? Did they drop any hints? No, The announcement was much too short for that. The information must be somewhere.My own k

Or, more likely, this is not part of the test. All signs point to it. The test is too hard to be the first one. I can tell by looking at this girl that I can't beat her, None of the students can. Though the AMA is hard, they would not set up a test most students would fail. Thus far, everything has been fair, and I have no reason to assume that's about to stop."You've got quite the powerful enemy." Aurora purre, twirling a strand of her hair with one finger. "How on earth does a teenage boy piss off a powerful mafia boss? I don't know whether to be befuddled or impressed.""I give her a shrug, subtly raising my head, so that the door above her is in my field of vision. "Guess I've had an Interesting life."She's talking about Giovanni Ricci, an Italian gangster who rules most of the Western States, and is considered one of the most dangerous men alive.I met him once, during my wild days. It was party after party back then, and his son happened to attend one of them. We hit it off at
