"How the fuck did you do that?" Ginger asks hazily.

Her eyes are still slightly glazed and still look a bit dead.  I had to force Sunny to show me how to use the healing power, but it took over an hour for me to find her inside my head. It was as if she'd disappeared as soon as I used my godforsaken power.

"I...I don't know." I lie tending to the cut on her shoulder.

Once I had escaped from the mall I kept running ignoring the screams for help behind me or the firefighters and police officers trying to catch me. I ran through the sea of cars till I reached the other side of the parking lot. From there I made my way to my car and straight to Darcy's.

Darcy was behind me with a bucket of clean water.

I dip a rag in the water and wipe off the dry blood that was around Ginger's bullet wound.

As soon as I could see the hole where the bullet had flew through her, I lift my hand right above it and concentrate on what her shoulder once looked before a bullet went flying through it.

Just like the first bullet wound this one closed up perfectly not leaving a scratch.

She looks down at the once bloody shoulder and looks at me in amazement.

"Serina...how did you do that?" She says again but more persistent.

"I really don't know!" I answer truthfully, realizing I have no clue how to explain it.

"Fine don't tell me." She turns her head defiantly.

"Now that's no way to treat the woman that just saved your life." Says Lydia coming up behind us with a tray in her hand.  She lays the tray down next to the mat Gingers sitting on.  On the tray is a variety of spices and leaves.

"What is that?" I ask pointing to a small red leaf with purple edges. Its pointed and looks as if it could prick your finger.

"Nettoyant." She answers.

"French?" I ask when the word slips off her tongue.

"Yes it means cleanser. This will clean out any infection that could of been left behind." She raises the leaf up to Gingers mouth.

"Um...what does it taste like?" Ginger asks moving her head slightly away from it.

"Its sweet. Like honey." Darcy says from behind me.

Lydia raises the small leaf again to Gingers mouth. She looks at the leaf reluctantly before opening her mouth and allowing it to fall on her tongue.

I watch the leaf as it slowly dissipates on her saliva as if it never existed.

"Wow." I breathe. I don't realize the word slipped out until its too late.

Everyone in the room looks at me, starring at Gingers tongue. That's when I realize they don't see the magic that I see. They don't see the purple liquid flowing into her veins.

"Wow what? Its gone." Ginger says looking at the small mirror next to her.

"You don't see it." I say still starring at the purple veins in her tongue and arms.

"Only someone with great magic can see the cure at work." Answers Darcy calmly starring at me with wonder in her eyes.

"But...I'm not that powerful." I answer.

"No but with another element close you are." She says almost to quietly for me to hear. Before I can ask her what that means she leaves abruptly.

"Come to the table." Lydia says picking up the remaining herbs and spices.

"O-okay?" I stutter confused.

But I'm wobbly on my feet. I stand slowly trying to get the feeling back in my legs.

I feel as though I'm swimming, water surrounds me but I can't see it.

I take a small step forward only to slip on the invisible water.

My heads feels heavy as if I'm under a ton of water.

A ringing goes through my ears, as if the popped.

That's when I drown, under the invisible water, suffocating.... gone.

*Third Persons POV*

The burning is unbearable.

One minute I'm perfectly fine just walking to my apartment then my skin feels as if its burning off slowly.

I lean against the brick wall of a store and try to clear my mind.
Its just part of the hallucinations you've been having lately.

I tell myself taking a step forward.

Agony shoots up my leg as if I'm walking through fire but I keep moving.

One step.

Two steps.

Three steps.

Finally the pain is bareable  and I'm able to walk I take slow steps away from the shop, not looking back.

Finally I make it stiffly across the street and the burning is just slightly in the back of my mind.
Hallucinations. Water, can't move with your hands. Fire doesn't just burn you from nowhere.
Hallucinations.


The drowning stops almost automatically as if a switch was hit.

"Water...she's near." I croak out. My heads still heavy, but the vision of the girl with ice blue hair is clear in my mind.
