I've been in my bed for the last 15 minutes. I've been trying to process all the information my mom and her sisters told me, danger, Cole, demons. I hear somebody going upstairs, right to the attic. I stand up, go right to my door and open it, I look to the staircase but there's nobody, he or she must be there already. What if it's a demon?

"Mom?" I ask "aunt Phoebe?" Nobody answers "aunt Paige? everything is silent "Wyatt?". As soon as I realize nobody is going to answer my call I decide to go upstairs. I open the attic door and Wyatt is just standing there, staring at the book of shadows.

"Why didn't you answer me when I yelled your name?" I ask him.

"Oh, sorry" he seems confused "I had to look for something in the book"

"Then just do it" I tell him.

"Yeah, maybe later. It's not that important" he answers. Something is wrong, I feel something different on his attitude.

"Our sister Shana came to visit us" I say.

"That's amazing, how is she?" he replies, letting me know exactly what I wanted to know.

"She's fine. Just one problem" I tell him "We don't have a sister named Shana" I answer while putting my hands up, trying to blow up the demon. Thanks God mom passed that power to me.

My power hits the demon throwing him trough the air, I couldn't vanquish him, upper level demon.

He stands up and starts running straight to me. I start orbin but in the moment I'm leaving the ground the demon takes my arm, we both orb together.

I don't have time to think about a specific place so we arrive in the first place that came to my mind, magic school.

We appear in the fron of a class taking Orbing classes, my dad is just in the front teaching.

I hit the demon making him go back.

"Could any of you help me?" I ask, but the class is for kids around the age of 10.

"Chris, stay here. I'll be back soon" my dad answers.

I look at the demon and try to vanquish him again, maybe the ligit kid, my brother, would have enough power to vanquish him. But I'm as powerful as he is, I would be able to do it.

The demon points at me with his hand and a lighting hits me, throwing me right to the wall. I'm in the ground now, the demon staring at me with a confident smile, this is the end.

"Book" a kid voice sounds in the last line of the classroon and a book orbs right to the demon's face. He's now looking at somebody, he is angry.

Dad enters the classroom again.

"Hey look" my dad says as he throws a potion to the demon.

The demon starts burning and finally explodes, leaving just ashes.

"What just happened?" Dad asked.

"We'll talk about it later" I answer. "You have a really brave student in your class."

I orb right to my home.

"Somebody home?" mom asks from downstairs.

I go right to her. "What did dad turn into when he got angry with the elders?"

"Into an avatar" she answers.

"Sorry" I give her a hug "I had to make sure it was you, a demon attacked and he looked just like Wyatt"

"A shape-shifter" she said.

"Yes, we have to do something" I am worried.

"Don't worry hooney, we're gonna be just fine. I'll put some crystals around the house so nobody is able to get it again" she says as she goes upstairs.

My aunts enter by the front door and come right to me.

"Hi Chris" aunt Paige waves to me.

"What is the name of the boyfriend aunt Phoebe had that freaked out when he found out she is a witch?" I ask them.

"You mean Dex?" aunt Paige answers "Why do you ask?"

We sit on the couch, I tell them the story again.

"Well Chris, Demons have always tried to get the book" aunt Phoebe says.

"Or kill us" aunt Paige cointinues.

"So it's not news" aunt Phoebe finishes "Don't worry. We're gonna be just fine."

We stay quiet, then something breaks the silence: mom screaming from the attic.

We stare at eachother for a moment and start running upstairs.
