We began to walk onto the dimly lit road as I looked around to admire the nature that surrounded us.

"This is exactly how I pictured it!" The boy whispered in awe as he looked around with a huge smile on his face.

"Yes it fits you" Agatha replied moving hair out of her face as she looked around at the familiar surroundings.

"You didn't think it was real did you?" Lilia asked Alice which she opened her mouth and placed her hand into her pockets,"you did?" She whispered back as she took a deep breath

"You know what this is?! This is a kidnapping! I think this is prime time to contact the authorities!" Sharon spoke securing her bag into her shoulders causing the rest of us to look at her as she spoke.

"Are we just going to ignore the fact that something just chased us down here!" I questioned cocking an eyebrow up at Agatha as she turned to me

"No not us but Agatha" Alice said glancing over at Agatha who was turned away looking ahead of us.

"Okay no feel service!" The lady shouted as she lifted her phone into the air making me sigh and place my head in my hands.

She tried to grab into my arm but I brushed her off slightly with a small smile, as she moved to walk faster,"well whatever it was it's our problem now" Lilia said to us as she continued to walk and looking ahead to find the way around.

"Is that because covens share blessings and burdens alike?" The boy asked turning towards the four of us trailing behind him and Agatha.

"Okay someone needs to call this boys parents!" I said to the group as I pointed at the boy who filed and turned back round and whispered,"yea they are most definitely asleep right now"

"Okay so does this random lady have any magical thing about her!?" I asked almost shouting at Agatha how turned around and gasped as she snaked an arm around her shoulders,"hey! She has a name it's Mrs har-" Agatha stated but before she could speak the lady interrupted her

"Sharon!" She shouted as Agatha retracted her arm looking away from her making me sigh once again.

"Well whoever she is, she has no business on the road!" I stated back at Agatha tilting my head in her direction,"that's was I've been trying to say!" Sharon agreed as she nodded her head to me but after a few moments I replied,"which puts us in even more danger! We don't even know what we are up against!" I shouted at Agatha in which Lilia turned round to look at me,

"Tame your fears..." Lilia mumbled,"that's what we're up against" she finished sounding less confident as Alice turned round,"what?" She whispered but Lilia didn't hear her and see continued walking.

"That's what we're up against our worst nightmares!" Lilia concluded as she looked nervously at Agatha how was looking down at the floor.

"But in what form?" I asked Lilia but Alice responded,"trials" simply. We all looked over at her,"at least that what the song says?" She shrugged as we all started to walk again.

"What are they like?" I questioned Agatha who sighed and looked over at me,"Hm the road will test us and our knowledge of the craft" she told us as my eyes widened as I heard her.

"One trial for each skill" she finished looking back at me,"but how do we pass them? I mean without any power" I asked fiddling with my ring on my finger.

"Well there's always analog magic! You know labour and manual acts of magic!" He said jumping next to Agatha.

"Witchcraft!" He exclaimed throwing his arms up into the air as his smile slowly faded,"again who are you?" I asked him as he spoke but it was covered by a sigil
