To Catch A Cardinal

Chapter 1

*Nycole's Pov*

After Crystal went back I looked to the portal. I should close it right? How do I do that? I waved my hand from top to bottom and the portal began to close. I gripped my staff tightly. "It's teally hot down here guys." I said. They nodded and I saw them start to sweat. "Here take these." I summond four spheres and handed them each one.

"Whats this?" Asked Ghost as I handed him one.

"It will keep you from dying from heat exposure, now shut up and take it." I said a little snappy. "I'm using alot of Devi Magic here so be thankful." He nodded and put it in his satchel. Toast put his in his pocket and Jimmy put it in his jacket.

"Ok so now what?" Asked Jimmy.

"Hmm, umm, I'm open to ideas?" I said.

Toast spoke up, "Could you teleport us to her ma'am?"

"I could but my magic is unstable at the moment and I don't know where you guys could go."

"We have to try, I'll do it." Said Ghost.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"Ok.." I said as my voice trailed off. I took my staff and recited a spell and he was gone. I suddenly felt light headed. Hello. Said a voice.

Uhh what? I thought.

Oh, duh, you don't know who I am. Sorry but I'm speaking to you through your thoughts.

Oh so your totally not a stalker. Who are you and how are you doing that?

I'm like you, and did no one ever really teach you how to use magic properly?

I was never tought to use magic, I figured it out myself when I found the spell books in the woods.

Hmm, we need to talk in a better way. I felt my self stumble and Toast was by my side. Jimmy to. I said "Be right back" and went unconscious.

I was floating in the void again, like when I met Fallon. Wait. There infront of me stood Fallon. Your that ghost I saw earlier! I tried to say but nothing came out.

Yes, I am, and I was the one talking to you just now. He said. I'm a mind reader and a Spell Wanderer, like you.

Oh, so how and why are you here?

Oh, well I can't have a fellow Spell Wanderer dying in this place now can I?

Ok but what about my friends?

What about them?

Can they hear you too?

No, only you can hear me.

Oh can I go now?

Sure but I came to give you advice.

Fine what advice?

To cast stronger spells, move your staff. Also you don't need to say the spell out loud, it just waists energy.

Oh ok, will you be back? And can't you just talk to me in my mind and give me advice, my friends might panick if every time you need to talk I pass out.

Fair point, but ok, I can do that, now you can go.

My thoughts where motionless as I woke up.
