Be Somebody

Breakthrough

Hello, everyone! How are you? So, sorry for not uploading but I got into writer's block for this story and I was unable to finish the 20th chapter. Now, I'm writing the 21st chapter! 

It's still in the Christmas period and I know it's going to be awkward and I'm sorry. I thought I would be able to upload all the Christmas chapters during Christmas but I didn't manage that.

Enjoy!

Nansia woke up with Lizzie shaking her awake and telling her that they should get ready to go to the library.

The girls tried to get ready as quietly as they could and Josie studied on her phone the public bus schedule and the nearest stop while Nansia made them coffees in their thermos and Lizzie made sandwiches and Hope was arranging the two backpacks they would carry with notebooks and laptop and one to hide food and drinks. Nansia had her own bag ready too.

Around 10 am they were out of the house just as Hope said she heard footsteps from upstairs signaling that one of the adults was awake.

The girls run to the bus stop and were just in time for the bus. Paid for their tickets and sat next to each other and they started to eat their breakfast while looking around them.

Nansia said she loved the snow and Hope with Lizzie shook their heads in no saying how they liked autumn and summer more while Josie said she loved the spring more but tolerated the winter.

Hope complimented both Nansia's and Lizzie's coffee and sandwich-making skills. In 45 minutes they were in their stop and Nansia threw thanks and happy holidays to the driver as they jumped off the bus and Nansia saw the driver wave and smile at them in thanks.

Josie guided them to the library with Google Maps and the girls saw that library was relatively small yet many students were inside.

"Everyone is a supernatural being." Hope whispered in awe as they walked inside and marveled at the grand structure of the building.

Nansia felt the very familiar feeling of calm wash over her just like every other time she stepped through a library.

She felt very calm, a calm that soaked through her bones and was hard for her to explain otherwise, washed over her whenever she entered libraries since she can remember.

The girls walked lost in the library while some people stared at them others just smiled warmly at them.

"How can I help you girls?" A voice scared them as a woman stood up from one of the huge tables where many college books were laid open and a huge notebook was in the middle of all the chaos and a water flask and a small lunch box were on the side.

"Um...we are looking for Mrs. Ingrid Marvin-Park?" Josie asked a little nervous and the woman before they smiled.

"I'm Ingrid, girls, how can I help?" She asked kindly then titled her head to the side and watched Josie face thoughtful.

"Josie? Is that you? Oh! My God! You've grown! And you change your hair! Oh! You look like a young woman now!" Ingrid exclaimed as she pinched Josie's cheeks and Josie stood awkwardly taking the assault while Hope and Lizzie had wide eyes and Nansia was giggling.

"And you must be Lizzie and Hope...and Nancy? No, Nansia! My niece talked about you too! It's so nice to meet you girls, how can I help?" Ingrid asked as she went around and gave warm hugs to everyone with a cheery smile and tone.

"If it's not a bother we would like to look for three things; Malivore, Watchers and how to transfer one's life force to an identical body as the owner's but without the said body to be connected or under the enslavement of a powerful being." Lizzie said with a serious and hesitant tone trying to be polite and not rush things. She wanted to find as much as they could today before Nansia called Ryan to check on him.
