*Shay's P.O.V*

"Are we really going to the secret place?" Kaden asked as he closed a book, and sat it down on the table. We've been looking all around this library for the words, and we haven't found anything. It had to be here, there was no where else it could be.

"Yes, after we find the words." I said sighing closing another book.

"I understand we have to find the words to stop her, but even after we find them what do we do with them?" Liam asked as I picked up another book.

"I don't know." I said with a sigh. "Well figure out something."

"This is hopeless." Kaden said slamming a book closed, and tossing it on the table. He sat down, and let a frustrated sigh come out. "We're never going to find them."

"We can't give up." I said. "She have Lane remember? We have to get him back."

"Who says we'll get him back?" Kaden asked. "Zahra likes to play tricks, or mind games. You can't ever trust a word she says."

"I know, but we have to try to get him back from her." I said biting my lip. "We don't have any other choice."

"Hey guys did anyone ever to think of the room upstairs? That we had to break the wall to get in?" Callie suddenly asked coming downstairs.

We all looked at each other, "Nope." I said before running up there. I mentally slapped myself for not looking up here first. Maybe it was here? It had to be here. I had no where else to look.

We instantly started searching. Looking through the weird books, and such. I finally kicked of my heels, considering I haven't been home or changed tonight. I felt horrible that everyone was missing out on prom.

I really owed them one. That's when the lights turned off.

"Are you kidding me?" Kaden said as I heard a bang. "Ow, I hit something."

"Idiot." Liam mumbled.

"Your the idiot." Kaden replied. "Does anyone have a flashlight?"

"No." We all replied.

"Then it looks like we won't be able to look anymore tonight." Liam said sighing.

"We'll have to look in the morning then." I said, "And we'll meet Zahra at dawn."

"That's if we find anything." Callie said.

"Yeah if." I mumbled out.

My eyes fluttered open as I awoke on the floor. I yawned and pushed myself off the floor, and looked around. We had fallen asleep last night at the library, and everyone was still asleep besides me of course. I decided not to awake them, and look around a bit for myself.

I went and searched around the old shelves, trying to find something that could help us.

Then I accidentally dropped a book. It made a loud sound, and hopefully it didn't wake anybody up.

"Shay?" Callie called out. I looked over at her to see her rubbing her eyes, and letting out a yawn.

"Sorry Callie." I whispered to her as I bent down to pick up the book, "Go back to sleep."

"Shay." She called out again her voice a bit urgent.

"What?" I asked.

"The words." She exclaimed as she jumped up.

"What about them?" I asked her. She grabbed my arm and pulled me over to her standing point, and pointed to the wall.

"From the light and dark send thy back with all that depends." I read out loud. The words shined in gold, and written in cursive. "Wait, how do we know there's are the words?"

"I can feel it Shay! I know they are!" Callie exclaimed.

"Copy down those words, And get the boys up while I do something else." I said as I raced downstairs. I could feel something in the pit of my stomach. It wasn't fear, or sadness. It was hope.

I put the ring on the table, the bracelet, and the necklace the table. Callie laid down the words next to them.

"What now?" Kaden asked examing the items on the table.

"Read the words altogether." A voice whispered making me jump in surprise a bit. I nodded, and placed the words in front of me.

"Read this with me." I said as they nodded. They came to my sides to see the paper, and to read it. I looked at all of them, and they gave me a reassuring look.

"From the light and dark send thy back with all that depends." We said at the same time. At first nothing happen, as I was about to speak up something happen. The items all shines brightly causing me to look away, along with everyone else.

Soon the brightness died down, and it was now safe to look. I looked back at the table to no longer see the items, but a staff.

The staff had blue bright moonstones on the top, and help up by a wooden stem. I grabbed the staff, and looked at them.

"Let's go." I said walking towards the door. "We're stopping Zahra. Once and for all.."
