I couldn't believe I found her. Not Amber, by the way, but my sister. Colette was here and I wasn't going to let her go again. She left me and our family when she heard this prophecy thing. It says that she's the evil to the good, classic bad witch good witch stuff. I couldn't believe it, not of Colette. She was the sweetest out of the two of us. She was the one with the golden heart, that's how I knew that the prophecy was wrong. But still she fled, she knew prophecies are never wrong. I refuse to believe it none the less.
Colette wasn't going to tell anyone we were sisters, although she wanted to. She wanted to tell them everything. She thinks they can help her, but there's no help to be had. And if they found out about the prophecy they might, you know, kill her.
However, I do find this place immensely interesting. Being from a witch family I've known all about my powers and others powers for a long time, but a battle? Now that could get interesting. And I think they may need us, I'm obviously an excellent tracker. Speaking of which, Ambers decided to stay and help us look for more."So I have this spell," I stated to everyone around the table, which was quite literally everyone, "I can connect with people who have a strong vibe. And that vibe is actually their powers. That's how I find them."
Avery clapped and her eyes widened admirably, she was a sweet girl that one."That's cool, can you do it right now?" Dusk asked unimpressed. I gave her a clever look.
"I can do it whenever I please, but if I'm not in close proximity with someone with a strong vibe my powers can be very," I hesitated, searching for the right word, "vague."
Everyone looked worried. They really didn't have any faith in me? I had to save this situation.
"I have a few different points we can start. I'm thinking we can break off into groups and search these places," I slammed down a map of the world on the table. Three different places were circled.
"Ooh, I'll go to Hawaii!" Avery bounced out of her seat and pointed to it on the map. I rolled my eyes and sweeper off her hand.
"That would be great, but it's not one of the places circled. So I was thinking Colette and I could go to this region," I pointed to the west of the map. I wasn't sure what country it was, I really should have got a map with the names on it. All I knew was that it wasn't very westernised and mostly woods.
"Well I'll go with Elizabeth and Ingrid to here then," Avery pointed somewhere else on the map. I wasn't paying attention but I nodded anyway.
"So that just leaves Henley, Amber and Dusk," I smiled at them, "you'll be going here. I think it snows." I scratched my head trying to remember what country it was.
"Okay. But how are any of us going to get to different sides of the globe?" Amber looked befuddled. I stifled a laugh.
"Well we aren't going to leave until tomorrow obviously," Avery giggled. The look on Ambers face was priceless. I couldn't hold it in anymore and I begun laughing uncontrollably.
"That's not what she means," I finally got out.
"She doesn't know about what you can do yet," Ingrid shyly added. I had forgotten she was here.
"Oh! Well I can transport people! Pretty cool," Avery was eager to show off her skill.
"Wow. Is that...safe?" Amber asked. She was such a delicate speaker. It suited her, she had such a porcelain look about her, like she was made from glass.
"Very," Elizabeth reassured her, "Avery was correct though, me must all go to bed now. It's been a long day."
Tomorrow would be even longer, I thought as I packed up my map. I would be alone with Colette and I could get to the bottom of her thinking. Even though being sisters we had a special bond, I could never figure out what was going on in her mind.
