"You're late," pouted Sofia.
Noelle smiled softly, "I'm sorry. I got caught up helping Melinda with her powers. Meet her brothers too." Noelle couldn't help but think about Chris Halliwell. Something about the brunette made her swoon. She had always been alone, afraid to open up to someone else.
Sofia grinned, "It's fine. I actually wanted to ask you something."
Noelle smiled, "Of cour-" She suddenly stopped talking, being pulled into a vision.
In an abandoned alleyway two demons were cowering over a child, not much older than 10. The child was crying, pressing against the wall, hoping it would swallow her up.
"Just close your eyes, it will be over before you know it," cackled one of the demons. Noelle couldn't understand why someone would attack an innocent child. The child looked terrified and shaking in fear. The two demons were slowly getting closer before a white light shun brightly.
Noelle was pulled back into reality, gasping for air. She could feel her hands shaking, trying to understand what she had just witnessed. She couldn't get the face of the child out of her head. How could someone do something like that to do a child? she thought.
"Are you okay?" Sofia asked concerned, bringing her back to reality. Sofia couldn't help but worry about her sister. She had never seen her this scared before.
Noelle sighed heavily, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. It was a vision, a really bad one." Noelle couldn't shake the fear.
She could feel all of the child's emotions, the fear, anger, hurt. She couldn't help but be grateful that her sister was right there with her.
Sofia moved to hug her sister, "We don't have to talk about. Let's just go home."
"I know. I actually think it's best that I drop you off at Magic School. I need to find this child."
Sofia gasped in shock, "You saw a child get hurt. Who could do something like that to a child?"
Noelle sighed in frustration, "I know right. They just hovered over her, terrifying her. She was so scared and I couldn't help her. I felt so hopeless. She was so young."
"I understand why you want to help. I don't mind staying at Magic School while you find the child. I still can't understand why someone would do something like this to a child. I'm just glad she has someone like you looking out for her." Sofia didn't say it often but she was proud to have Noelle as a big sister. She always looked out for her and protected her no matter what.

Noelle was currently sat in front of a map with a crystal trying to look for the child. She still couldn't help but think about the innocent child, hoping she could save them before it was too late. She had spent so long helping people but it still upset her when young children was involved. Just last week she came across a boy that was 16 and he had almost died too before she came along. He didn't even have a clue about the magic world before she came across him.
"What are you doing?" A voice spoke out behind her. Noelle turned around to see Chris with his hands in his pockets, nervous. She couldn't help but smile at his nervousness.
Noelle smiled, "I'm looking for an innocent. I had a vision earlier but I can't seem to find who I'm looking for. Truth is I don't have much to go on." She hated not being able to find the child, afraid what might happen.
Chris nodded before walking over to her before siting down, "Need any help?"
"Sure."
He grabbed the note book next to her, "How about we write a spell to find who you are looking for since you're not getting any where with the crystals."
"Thank you. I really appreciate the help."
Chris smiled, "Any time. Why don't you tell me about the vision you had while I work on the spell?" Chris couldn't help but be drawn to the young witch. She was unlike anyone he had ever meet, so kind and beautiful. His Uncle Cup had told him about soul mates but never believed he would find his. He had given up on love a long time ago, his family was his main priority. But when he looked at Noelle, he saw his future with her and he was terrified. However, the more time he spent with her, he could feel himself becoming dependent.
Noelle sighed, "I saw a little kid, in an ally, cornered by two demons. She was a child and yet they were both ready to kill her. She was helpless and defenseless. No child should ever have to be so terrified. I could feel everything she was feeling and I hated how indifferent they were to her. She was nothing more than a prize to be claimed."
Chris placed a hand on her shoulder hoping to calm her down, "I'm not going to begin to understand what you saw but she has a chance now that you are looking for her. You're right, no child should have to be left so scared but you have to believe that you can save her, if you don't, she doesn't stand a chance."
"Thank you. I guess I needed to hear that. Did you finish the spell?"
"You're welcome. Yes I did." He handed her over the piece of paper before she grabbed the crystal, muttering the spell.
Vision of mine, show me the way A child in danger , I have to save
Soon enough the crystal landed on the map.
Noelle smiled, knowing Chris was right, she was going to save this child no matter what happened. She moved to get up when Chris gabbed her hand softly.
