It’s been 2 months later since I was in the hospital. Man, My leg is so itchy, when will I get these casts off my arm and leg. At least I can walk on it or I'll be in bed all the time.

“How’s the leg and arm? Bucko” Kristof is over today to help me with my spells.

“Its better, but it’s itchy like crazy,” he laughed.

“Be glad its not your right arm or we won’t be able to practice”

“True,” I nodded, “so what’s the spell today?”

“It is the body drop”

“Can’t you just drop yourself on to the ground with out magic?” I asked him and snickered.

“No, well yes, but that’s not what I mean by that. The body drop is when you’re in a heated place, like stuck in a fire. You could drop you body’s temperature low so it wouldn’t be too hot for you and you could make it into the weather so you could cool off the fire. Then tomorrow I’m going to teach you the body rise so anytime your somewhere cold you could warm yourself up, or the other people around you and make a little fire.”

“That’s so cool, do I need any gestures for this one?” I stare at him in amazement.

“Yes, let me get the parchment first then will start.” He walks to his laptop bag; he always brings his laptop bag with him, and takes out an old book that holds spells. He walks back with it and lets me read it.

Body heat drop spell

Long time ago there had been fires all over the Eastern Europe area. Witches used this spell to help and control these fires that sorcerers and exustio half-demons create. This spell could be use on yourself, somebody else, or on the object you are trying to cool. Be aware this spell is dangerous on human bodies if not correctly use. If this is your first time, DO NOT use on somebody else or on yourself.

Gestures on something else:

§Both hands out in front of you with fingers wide.

§Flick your left hand smoothly to the left

§Wave your right hand fingers at the person or object.

Gestures on you self:

Both hand by you sides.

Flicker/tap all your fingers against your body

This is a non-verbal spell. You have to concentrate on the person, object, or yourself and think something very cold. Then the temperature will drop 3 degrees per half minute. The longer you hold the temperature will drop. This spell only last 3 minutes before you have to recast again. You will feel the coolness coming off your fingers and see the heat rise out of the person or object.

Warning: the spell on the person you cast on will last for 2 hours, if they do not know how to raise their body heat in time. They may have a chance of dying. Do not use on vampires or werewolves because it will not affect them. Since Vampires Body Temperature is already cold and Werewolves are hot and easily reheat their body in a matter of seconds.

“That’s really interesting Kristof, but there are a lot of warnings”

“I see that but after you accomplish it you won’t have any trouble with it. Would you like to start?”

“Yes please,” I look at him eagerly.

We have been doing this for hours on the oven, since we can reheat it and see how much we drop the temperature. I drop 9 degrees and Kristof 16 degrees, but I think I’ve been doing very well. I’m not worn out but Kristof is so we are done for the day. I could do more but I think I’ll stop with him.

“That was great progress don’t you think?” Kristof asked.

“Yea, 9 degrees I think is awesome for my first time.”

“Good, I thought you be mad because I dropped it lower than you”

“Nah. I’m happy with what I got. Practice makes perfect” I smiled at him.

I got off the couch, “would like something to eat?”

“No, I think I’ll be heading home now. Goodbye Elena”

I wave goodbye to him and walked into the kitchen. I went to the junk food cabinet and open it to see nothing good in there. Then I went to the fridge and took out the left over from last night and put it in the microwave.

“You know dinner is in a hour right?” Christophe said. I look over at him and look back at the food I was heating, “yea I know, but that training made me hungry”

“Oh okay, then I won’t make you any dinner”

“Okay, I don’t mind”

Everyone was having dinner when I was in my room. I gazed at the sunset. I love sunsets. I went to my closet and took out my camera. I walked over to the window and took a picture. I turn back and started to read Romeo and Juliet. I was on page 76 when a rock hit my window. I stare to it and saw smoke rising near it. Plunk. Another rock. I went to my door and opened it. Smoke stung my eyes and made me cough. Oh my god. I’m in a middle of a fire! I run to my window and opened it. It didn’t do much because smoke came in that way. Someone threw another rock and hit me on the arm. I stare down to see everyone out there. Yelling, throwing rocks to get my attention.

Fuck what am I supposed to do!

Smoke got into my throat and shaken my knees.I fell down coughing and crying. I see two people, I don’t know who, run in the house to get me I think and another one running to our closes neighbour to call the fire department.

Think, think, I got it!

I put my hands to my sides and did the spell I learned today. I started counting, holding my concentration. 1, 2, 3, 4, I hit 60 seconds and the fire wasn’t so hot anymore. I felt fresh air hitting my face, I looked up to see the fire going away from the window. I sucked in as much fresh air I could get in my lungs and cough out the smoke and did it again. I stood up and walk to my door. I held my breath as I opened it and ran into the fire, to get out of this mess.
