Keelie woke up as the sun warmed her skin. She was laying on a couch in some sort of loft. The walls were a bright modern blue with white accenting. She sat up and her head began pounding an irregular beat.
" Here take these " Aednat said setting a soda and two white pills in front of her
" Why are you doing this?"
" What?"
" This, all of it you kidnapped me and now your trying to help me?"
" Ok first things first, I didn't kidnap you . . like at all you just followed me through my warp"
" What? What the hell Is a warp?" Keelie asked her head hurting a little more
" Its like . . . a big jump .. . just across continents you know?"
Aednat sighed when she stared back blankly. She crossed to the small recliner and sat pulling her legs up to her chest. She rested her head on her knees for a moment.
" Its like in harry potter when they go from the wedding tent to the streets by that weird warping thing?"
Understanding dawned on Keelies face.
" Good, its like that only with adverse effects a headache dry scratchy throat's and sometimes it drains power for a few days" Aednat explained " That's why I cant bring you back right away"
" WHAT?" Keelie jumped up nearly falling falling over again " I cant stay here, do you realize how worried my parents will be. They must be worried sick looking for me . . . . how long has it been sense we warped?"
Aednat looked up and set her chin on her knees then sighed.
" Four days" she answered simply
Keelie went pale and plopped back down on the couch
" Four days?" Keelie asked weakly
" Yup" Aednat said softly
Aednat stood and sat next to her and put an arm around her shoulders. Keelie started crying out of confusion, out of pain, out of exhaustion. Aednat rocked her back and forth whispering in her ear and running her hand through her hair. When she was still for a moment Aednat gently rubbed her cheeks looking into her eyes she wiped the tears off her cheeks.
" I know what it feels like to be a world away from your family, hell mine arnt even in this realm."
" Really?" Keelie whimpered
" Yea" she replied
Keelie smiled weakly meeting her eyes.
Aednat shivered, goosebumps dotted across her skin. Her hands quivered slightly as she traced the side of Keelies cheek down to her lips. She felt Keelie shiver under her touch. They leaned hesitantly at first aware of each others form, aware of every point they touched, utterly aware of the tension between them. Aednat leaned in close pausing tantalizingly close. Her breath caressed Keelies lips and she shuddered. Keelie kissed her soft and sweet feeling dizzy. As there lips touched they sizzled and their two form melded into each other.

Keelie felt the wave of dizziness wash over her as Aednat brushed her finger over her lips. She felt the cold pit of fear in her stomach as she leaned in close. She knew she shouldn't, that it was just the high emotions and this girl is the reason for them, but she kissed her anyway taking the biggest leap of faith in her life. She was surprised when Aednat kissed back with a burning intensity picking her slight frame up and setting her gently on top of her. They both fell back into the couch still kissing. She pulled back her breath coming in short ragged bursts. She searched Aednats eyes for some sort of tell, for some sort of devious agenda but all she saw was a girl as vulnerable and open as she was with a spark in her soul and a love in her heart.

" We shouldn't have done that" Aednat said softly
Keelie still lay on top of her listening to her heart beat thrum in her ear.
" Yeah I know I . . . there was just . . . something about it . . .that felt . . " She replied
" Right" Aednat finished
There was a long silence before Keelie answered.
" Its like for the longest time Ive tried to be something im not, and now that my life seems to be going to hell I feel like I found what I am. Who I am."
Aednat smiled " Your life hasnt completly gone to hell. Youll only be gone for another few days, then Ill warp you back."
" Then what? Am I supposed to pretend that none of this happened? Am I supposed to pretend I didnt meet you?" Keelie asked raising her head to look her in the eye
Aednat chuckled " I thought you would focuse on the fact that I need a few days before I warp you back"
" Thats Just it, Thats what I should be worried about but all I can think about is loosing you." Keelie said
" Thats because the witch has enchanted you"
The two girls jumped falling into a tangled mess on the floor. Two other figures stepped out of the shadows and picked them up.
Keelie jabbed one in the ribs with her then whipped her head back smashing him in the face. He yelped and cursed as she threw him over her shoulder.
" Duck" She said simply
Aednat dropped into a crouch as Keelie twisted her entire body putting maximum tourque behind a viscouse roundhouse kick to the face of the second of the three men.
Aednat threw a fire ball streaming across the room towards the last of the three men. He didnt manage to avoide it.
