"You've done absolutely nothing to find your daughter, have you?" I ask, standing in the doorway to Basil's office, as he predictably chokes on his undoubtedly spiked coffee.

"Now, nothing is a very strong word---" he says, standing up.

"But you have no idea where she is?" Raven asks, as we walk in.

"That's---that's very strong---absolutist language---" Basil stutters as we walk around his desk to corner him.

"You have no idea where our twenty-two year old CHILD actually is?" I ask, folding my arms.

"Didn't---didn't we determine that she can not only read minds a little, but she can also drain people's energy? Like isn't she like 1000% able to take care of herself—owww don't do that," I pinched his knee.

"Find our daughter. Right now. I want to know where she is, and where she's been. Is that clear?"

"Uhuh yeah crystal," Basil says, cowering, as Raven summons a flame in her hand and looks at his desk.

"I need her home, with me, tonight—"

"Weren't you married with a six year old when you were twenty two---oww—owww, stop," I twisted his arm behind his back.

"Baz, find Jasmine, simple,"  Raven says.

"It's not actually—"

"Have you even tried?"

"Technically no."
