Hello, Mystical Creatures. I hope you enjoy this one. I really am working hard on making this book the best that it is. It took a while for me to write this because I've been having some writers' block. But here we are. Enjoy!

The song above is called Wonderland by Caravan Palace.

Aaron looks at me. I already know what he's going to say so I beat him to the punch.

"It's alright. I'll go find the boys and hang out with them. Dustin can tell me later."

He smiles at me and I smile back. "Thank you, Cali."

"Of course." I excuse myself from the room and go looking for the boys. I can't seem to find them in the house, so I head outside. I search the training area first, then the backyard but they aren't anywhere to be seen.

"Oh well." It looks like its time to explore. As I'm walking around, I find a little clearing off to the side of the mansion. I walk over and notice that the wildlife is watching me. Yes! Time to test if I can talk to animals.

I squat down in the middle of the clearing and motion for a squirrel to come forward. He scurries over and sits in front of me.

"Hello, little squirrel. My name is Cali. Can you understand me?" It nods its head in understanding. I smile but then frown.

"You can understand me, but you can't answer back, correct?"

It nods its head again. I sigh. Well at least they can understand me and that's all that matters right now.

More animals come out of the forest and into the clearing and join us. I start to hum a song and they all listen. I see their curious faces and I giggle.

"Would you like to hear the song I'm singing?" They all nod eagerly, and I play the karaoke version for them while I sing.

'Just imagine a trip to a wonderful land
Of candy, and jam, and ice cream

I gotta hit that street you better watch it
With a gat that I cock with a full clip
I got the whip, got the pitch thought I'd keep it undercover
All up in the club just to live it up
See the stone-cold face, try to knock it
I can't be trapped, never walk, I'm a rocket
I gotta be in it, I gotta grip in it
I gotta be-ba-da-be-ba-da-be-da-be-it

See the big gold chain that I'm rockin'
I got the ring for the bling, not a problem
I got a stash full of cash that I owe to my brother
All up in the club, just to live it up
Look how the streets turn cold when I walk it
It's my rules no man can stop it
I throw a kick so quick that'll leave you in the gutter
Leave you in the gutter, gutter, gutter...'

As I'm singing the lyrics and making hand gestures, I notice fire beginning to form around me. I let the lyrics die out on my lips as I look around me. The fire is only surrounding me and not hurting the animals. Hm? Is this some kind of power of mine?
