"But where did she come from?" I said sighing, thinking to myself. Lacey have to leave for who knows why, which left me with a unknown answer to my question. Which was driving me crazy!

"So a voice told you to send her back where she came from?" Lane said raising a brow as we drove back home. I didn't have the heart to tell him I could see his dead sister, I was afraid it would make him sad, or something like that. I wanted to tell him, but something in me told me it wasn't a good idea. So I just told him the voices said what Lacey says.

"Yeah." I said. "But did she come from hell, a spiritual place, what?!"

Lane bit his lip, which was really cute....Shut.Up.Shay. This is not the time! "Im not sure, and we won't be able to know until the those voices come back." He said sighing glancing over at me, then back at the road.

"The book Shay! The book!" A voice yelled.

"What book?" I said looking around the car, like I was going to see the voice.

"Close you eyes!" They whispered.

I took a shakily deep breath. "What?" I say.

"Close your eyes!" The whispered softly once more.

I then leaned back in my seat, and closed my eyes slowly. A flash of light went through my brain.

"Open you eyes!" They said. I opened my eyes to be in a.....Library.

"How did I get here?" I said with my voice echoing. I didn't get a answer so I decided to walk around. I grabbed a book off of one of the shelves. I blew the dust off the books, and read the title. "The Witches of The past." I said reading it outloud.

I started flipping through the book. I then stopped at a page with a picture. There was a lady, a sketched picture, she had long hair that flowed to her back, her eyes were closed, her hands were behind her back, she was floating up in the air. I read the chapter page.

'The witch of the past.' It read. I was about to read more, but one book caught my eye. It was on a pillar, with a case over it. I closed the book, and out it back. I walked over to the book carefully. Once I made my way to the book I examined it closely. The book was open, and looked very inviting for me to just read it.

They was a golden light above it, the pages looked old and well written on. I bit my lip, and removed the glass case that was over it. When I did the gold light turned off. I thought I heard a whisper when I took it off. I looked around, but no one was there. I just took a deep breath, and continued to look at the book. I closed the book, and read the title.

"The Witches of Death." I said reading the title outloud. I then opened it back up, and suddenly the pages started going crazy. The pages zoomed to a chapter that read, 'How to send a witch back.'

I started reading the book. "Zahras a witch?" I said. "The witch how brings herself from the dead, is the one who holds the book. The sibling of the witch must read the words-" I stopped reading because the words were scratched out. "No!" I then sighed, and decided to keep reading. "The sibling must let the book go, and back away. Once the book realizes what's happening, it's magic will take the witch away forever."

"Shay wake up!" A familiar voice yelled. I looked around to see who was there, but No one was around. "Shay!"

My eyes then snap open to be faced to face with Lane. I look around to see Kaden, Liam, Callie, and Lane all staring at me. "When did I get here?" I asked.

"I guess you were sleep walking or something." Lane says. "I don't really know what you were doing."

I didn't question him any further. "I think I know how to stop my sister.." I said shivering at the word sister. I didn't know why, but it gave me the chills knowing me and her were related.

He raised a brow.

"How?" Callie asked.

"First we have to find this book, and the words that are marked out if it. We'll know from there."

"So we have to find a library?" Liam asked. I nodded and bit my lip.

Kaden jumped up from his seat.

"There's this old abandoned library not that far from here! The books are still there, no one has got them out." Kaden said.

"Then let's go!" Callie said heading to the door.

I felt something weird go through me as we headed towards the door. I believe it was called hope. I smiled to myself.

"Your going down Zahra." I whispered as I closed the door, and headed to the car.
