“So you want us to cast a circle and then try singing a song?” Erin asked.

“No I’ll sing you guys stay focus on your elements. We don’t know why Neferet insisted I’d be a part of this circle,” I said drawing the five pointed star on the bathroom floor. “You ready, Z?” I asked her. She was scared and I knew it.

“Yeah,” she smiled coming over.

“Z, I think you should stay in the center of the star since Roxanne is going to represent Spirit,” Damien suggested.

“That’s a good idea,” Erin added.

“Dit”- Shaunee started but stopped herself.

“Okay, everyone ready?” Zoey asked ignoring the ex-twins and allowing us to stand on a point of the star.

“Yep,” I sighed

“Ready,” Stevie Rae smiled.

“I guess,” Erin shrugged

“Yeah,” Shaunee pouted.

“I’m ready,” Damien said.

“Okay,” She said lighting her candle and walking over to Damien. “Air you surround us and are always present. Air I summon you to our circle,” she said and I felt the air rush around us. “That’s different,” Zoey noted.

“Yeah bigger than usually,” Damien noted.

“Just keep going,” I said.

“Okay,” Zoey sighed going onto Shaunee. “Fire you give us warmth and comfort. Fire I summon you to our circle,” she said and it looked as if the flame jump from her candle to Shaunee’s. The room was now filled with a warm breeze.

“Wow, this is cool,” Erin smiled at all of us.

“Water,” Zoey said approaching Erin. “You have the power of purification. Water I summon you to our circle,” Zoey said lighting Erin’s candle. Just then the air staring in the room became wet, but not uncomfortably so.

“Okay, you ready Stevie Rae,” she smiled at her.

“As I’ll ever be,” she smiled.

“Earth, you gave us a home and foster new life. Earth I summon you into our circle,” she said and lit Stevie Rae’s candle. Just then the musk of fresh cut air swirled around us.

“Last but not least,” Damien sighed.

“Spirit you are with in all of us I summon you to our circle,” Zoey said and as our candles touched the guest grew stronger and a golden thread connected us all.  

“This is because of the light in my affinity. Do you think Neferet knew this would happen?” I asked looking to Zoey.

“I doubt it, but she might have sensed all the mystery behind you and Shaylin, since we’ve all been avoiding thoughts about it,” Damien informed us.

“What do we do?” Stevie Rae asked. “Obviously she’ll see the light in your summoning spirit. We don’t know what that will mean,” she added.

“Thanatos is expecting me to be a part of the circle casting, so I have to do it. I’ll use the song to influence the crowd so they don’t get alarmed,” I suggested.

“Seeing as we have to get out there that might be the only thing we can do,” Zoey said before she revoked all the elements.

“Back to the lion’s din,” I said wrapping my arm around Shaunee’s shoulders.
