Sometimes, things happen

Cancer is a nice guy

Tobi stands in front of Tris positively petrified.

"Tobi, relax," she says. "Just focus. Hold your right hand out on front of you."

Tobi outstretches her right hand and tries calming herself.

"Okay, close your eyes," Tris instructs. "Imagine all the energy inside you all clumped up and in you hand. Think about nothing else."

Tobi empties her mind and focuses on a tiny sphere appearing in her hand. Sure enough when she opens her eyes a ball of light, yellow in colour, floats atop her hand. She felt like she was holding the sun in her hands. She turns her hand over and the tiny sun rolls with it, dancing between her fingers. It really is beautiful.

"Okay," Tris smiles. "Now focus, imagine it rising in the air and direct it at that bench," she points to the nearest bench standing on it's end. Tobi faces it and wills the ball of light to rise from her hands. Surprisingly enough it did rise a few feet in thet air. Tobi, with a new found confidence tells it to race toward the bench. It obeys and races toward the blockade. On impact, the bench is left in splinters and the light has disappeared.

"Well, the was more powerful then I had anticipated," Tris nods. She walks towards the book shelf and receives a small, black book. She flips though the pages and seems to find the one that she is looking for.

"It says here the light aura can be used in healing as well, if only we had someone who had been injured," Tris sighs. Tobi looks at her hands. She had only ever dreamed about this sort of power while reading books. She forms another sphere of light in her palm and stares at it's beauty. The tiny sun feels warm in her hands and is simply mesmerising.

"Now Tobi," Tris warns. "Please keep this power to a minimum and don't do anything stupid. To much light aura in the world could have catastrophic results," 

"Okay, got it," Tobi says absent minded.

"Can you get Angie come over hear now?" Tris asks.

"Sure."

Tobi throws the ball up in the air and catches it, well as best as you can when it floats. Tris plays with it and makes it run along her arm.

"Oi Angelica," Tobi smiles and makes the ball of energy disappear. Angie turns and glares at her making Tobi laugh. "Tris wants you."

Angie runs off and Tobi skims her hand along the bookshelf.

"Looking for anything in particular?" Tobi jumps and sees Cancer leaning against the bookshelves a meter in front of her.

"Not particularly," Tobi shrugs.

"Yes you are." This makes Tobi look confused. "You're looking for validation from you friends and most likely yourself. You're looking to find that you aren't alone in your feelings. You're looking for someone that shares these feelings but you won't admit this to your friends."

"I don't want a boyfriend," Tobi scowls.

"Or yourself apparently," Cancer laughs.

"How did you, know all that," Tobi asks sheepishly.

"Sherlock Holmes has always been my favourite fictional series and in the hundred and twentyish years since it was written I have had time to practice the art of deduction."

"I didn't think that was possible, that gift was a fiction," Tobi says rather impressed.

"Honey, I'm an immortal, knowledge hungry, gay star spirit, I can do whatever the heck I like," he explains. "And, I have the book for you," He reaches his hand up and a purple book comes flying into his hand. "I hope this helps."

Tobi is still looking confused as Cancer places the book in her hand. She looks at the front cover. No title just black, white and grey lines running down the spine. She sits on a bench a safe distance away from Angie who seems to be hovering a few meters in the air. She turns the cover and begins to read.

"Okay," Tris calls. "Can you all come over here, now!" Tobi stands and throws the book over her shoulder. She heads to where Tris is standing next to the other girls. Miki was snapping her fingers and tiny flames where appearing over her hands. Daisy was, well, growing daisy's out of nothing, Angie was practically flying and Lilly was holding a sphere of water atop her head.

"We're gonna go back now, don't use any magic at school okay?" All the girls extinguish their powers. "Thank you Cancer, for letting use your library," she turns and bows, motioning for the other to do the same.

"No problem, anything for my new favourite band of misfits," Cancer waves as the girls disappear back to their own world.

Tobi lays in bed twirling the golden ball of light through her fingers, surely a little wouldn't hurt anyway. She thinks about the Zodiacs, they are real spirits. They control our world. Sagittarius is in power at the moment and he is the spirit of peace. Who was the next one? Capricorn, spirit of fate, that could be interesting.

"Tobi, dinner!" Her mother calls. She extinguishes the light and head down to the dining room.

"So how was school?" Her mother asks when they've all sat down to eat.

"Boring," Felix sighs.

"Stupid," Harry groans.

"Uh, alright," Tobi lies. She picks at her spaghetti, avoiding the tomatoes in the mince.

"What made it alright?" Her mother asks.

"Oh not much," Tobi quickly covers up. "We did some work on our film,"

"Oh good," she smiles. "Not long now until the end of the year, then you'll be in year ten won't you."

"Mmm," Tobi says through a mouthful of spaghetti.

"You've always been such a messy eater," her mother laughs.
