"You guys, when I said we should do more cardio, I meant more like a spin class." Maggie said, Mel and Macy running on either side of her. "Plus, Lani's taking care of that thing."

"Nope, that thing's strong as hell. I was only able to slow it down." Milani said, appearing next to them. She threw her arm back and blocked the spikes the demon threw at them, making it screech in anger. "And I think I'm deaf in my right ear now."

"Why would you think that?" Mel gasped from her right.

"Huh!?" She turned her head to look at Mel, who just shook her head. "Anyways, Macy, we're gonna have to bind it."

"Take out the elements, that thing is too strong for us to freeze." Mel panted out when they stopped running, Milani trying to gain the hearing in her ear again. "Maggie, your matches."

Milani and Maggie's phones pinged, the former ignoring hers as she helped Mel and Macy while Maggie pulled hers out to check the message.

"Tell me you are not texting during our binding spell." Mel said, tossing some of the powder over to Milani.

"I don't think you realize how precarious my situation at Kappa is."

"There won't be a Kappa if we don't get this down."

"The demon lover's right!"

"Hey!" Milani straightened up and looked at Mel. "I told you guys that out of confidence."

Two spikes pierced Maggie and Milani, both girls screaming in pain as they flew back from the impact, both being stuck onto a cargo thing.

"I'll stop it."

"Lani, can't you remove these?!"

"I would but we would start bleeding out and I don't think we want that!"

"What are you waiting for? Hit him now!" Mel yelled at Macy, the demon throwing two more spikes at Milani and Maggie, both of them crying out again. "Screw it. I've got a spell for this."

"Wait, what!?"

"Solaris incantatio!" Mel closed her eyes and focused her magic into her hands, blasting the demon with it. It let out a scream before it blew up. Harry blew his whistle, Milani cursing when her ears popped.

"Failed simulation again."

"Well maybe if Mel would let go of the fact that I happen to like a demon, and Maggie had her phone on silent, we would've passed it with flying colors!" Milani sarcastically said in a sweet tone, Harry smiling with more sarcasm at her.

"Melanie Vera, what were you thinking?" Harry asked after rolling his eyes at Milani.

"You know, save the day. Kick some demon ass."

"With one of the most dangerous spells in all of witchcraft."

"Yeah. And it worked."

"Only because I ended the simulation before you killed your sisters!" Harry said to her, holding his hand up when Milani went to say something. "And yes, Milani, it would have killed you."

"You don't know that." She mumbled under her breath, kicking at the ground.

"Speaking of, can we dial back the realism of these training sessions?" Maggie spoke up. "Because that was super traumatic."

"I'm a witch, Harry. You can't tell me to hold back from being the best witch possible." Mel interrupted, bringing Harry's attention back to her.

"I am simply telling you to proceed with caution." He told her, walking closer to them. "As often as magic is the solution to a problem, it can also be the cause."
