Fina stirred restlessly on the bed. Her eyes have been opened for hours and she found her thoughts wandering in so many directions.
"You never experience normality again once you have gotten a taste of madness.
Indeed. This was madness in so many ways.
She stirred again and looked at Zo who have a painful expression on even in her sleep.
Zo might be adapting well to people but underneath she's like a broken shell.
Her expression was pinched and Fina knew she was having one of those bad dreams again.
She moved closer to her and began to sing softly in her ear that she can defeat her demons.
Zo's expression softened a little bit and Fina moved to her side where she laid awake for a while.
As she felt the little breeze of sleep, she brought out her wand from thin air and did the sentimincus spell Tyrell taught her.
And drifted asleep….
Until she opened her eyes in the morning.
No nightmares.
Fina and Zo rushed to get ready for Telepathy class. They ran out of the elevator until they got to the lobby.
Fina's hair was askew and her ponytail was begging to be straightened.
They halted when they saw Bryce Parker and his friends walking in.
They all looked like they went for a fly.
All except Xavier who wasn't even present.
Tyrell smiled at Fina.
"Hey" Ozias said in greetings.
Fina's nose twitched at the smell drifting from his red scarf always wrapped around his neck.
"Hey…" Fina said to them all and dragged Zo to the door. They were almost out of the door when Tyrell grabbed her hand.
"Can I see you in the library. Our spot" Tyrell whispered
Our spot…
Fina nodded furiously and hurried out of the door with Zo.
"Over sleeping is sooo my enemy…" Zo sang
They were breathing deeply when they got to Telepathy class.
Including other students.
"Merista(Good morning)! Wellas(Well), this is surprising. Why are you all breathis like you have run a marathonis(Marathon)? Impossiblis(Impossible)"
Mrs Young was garbed in a weird purple pink gown with no exact pattern.
Her green hair and eyes stood out like a witch eyes.
Mrs Young shook her head at them and brought out her book wand.
"Wellas, today, we will be doing teleportas with our mind. So, I'll warn you, this is zertainly dangerous territory. You've been warned. Don't think bad thoughts. Don't form bad places in your head. Don't think about going to the palacis. The Guardians will kick you outas. Sit"
Invisible mats appeared and became visible on the floor.
They all took a seat.
"I want you all to breathe in deep and out and think about the place you want to go. Sometimes, when you are too slow, your mind settles on any place. And be careful not to swap places when you made the spell. You might be stuck in two places at once. Now, the spellis is dufferentas. MINDUSFELISTUSTELEPASIA"
Fina's mind went into a great frenzy at where she wanted her mind to settle on.
Her thoughts stopped at the tree of fog then she whispered the spell with a flick of her wand.
She wasn't at the tree of fog.
She was…. in the library and no one was there.
Fina took a deep breath and wondered where this might lead.
Again.
She was about to go back into teleportation class when the sun suddenly went down and evening followed.
Darkness descended and everywhere was shrouded in it.
Fina's eyes widened in shock and she ran to the window to see the full moon blessing the earth with its glorious light.
Everywhere outside was dark except for the moonlight.
She turned back to the library and everything was already changed.
It looked old.
Like years ago….
The shelf was still the same though.…
Fina walked slowly around, trying to make some senses out of this madness.
Because that's exactly what she described everything that was happening right now to be.
Madness…
Insanity….
It was like she was in a dream…
She hid when she heard footsteps.
Someone ran through the shelves.
Fina crept slowly to a corner where she could get a good view of the person.
Long shining red hair glistened in the dim light.
The person was in haste, hiding something in a shelf.
Hiding something in a shelf?
Then, it clicked.
The old settings. The day change.
She was in the past.
This wasn't few years ago.
This was a century ago.
And a century ago means….
