"Why is Jessica in Xiana's old room?" Zo asked
"Connected, I would say" Fina said "I guess her ring finally came to use. But Jessica can't be her roommate. She is in Capricorn except she was in Aries before. It's definitely someone else"
"You want to go check up on Tay?" Zo asked
"I have something else I want to do. I'll go check on Xavier and try to talk to Walker about Shelly" Fina said "Maybe we should tell Walker everything. This is dangerous territory"
Zo nodded sternly.
"Be careful. Even if he's not the one, be careful"
"Sure"
They parted ways and after an hour, Fina found herself walking to the spell class.
On her way to the class, someone bumped into her.
"Fina Clark, right?"
Fina looked up to see a very handsome intermediate student in front of her. He has two dimples which made him really cute.
"Yes. How do you know?"
The boy grinned and held out his hand for a shake.
"Ian. I'm a Gemini student. The only one who doesn't have a weird twin"
Fina held out her hand and shook his.
"I and my twin are behind the fun games in Elfina. Looking at you now, you are really pretty. You have captivating rare green eyes" Ian said.
"Oh. Thanks. Is Mr Walker in class?"
"Yes" Ian replied as he pushed aside his blue side bangs. "But he's conducting a test for the intermediates. Secret test. Maybe you should come back?"
"Yes, I'll. Thanks"
"Walk with me? I'm heading out of the castle myself"
"There was a time I did something stupid. I broke my wand" Ian said when they turned a corridor.
"What happened?"
"It was during Zedler's test. The animal broke my wooden wand. Tyrell saved me. He actually shared his points with me. It affected him because he was really close to Bryce Parker. Bryce aces everything. Always. He's going to become a great Guardian one day"
"He never had a girlfriend?" Fina found herself asking.
"Once. Bridget. They dated for a year. I didn't know what happened between them but I do know no one will ever find out. Bryce Parker never tell anyone anything. Speaking of the devil"
Fina looked up to see Bryce at a distance in front of them.
His eyes glanced at them both.
"Ian" Bryce said in greetings.
"Parker" Ian replied
Bryce walked to them.
"Don't you have somewhere else to be now?" Bryce asked
"Oh. I forgot. Sorry Clark. See you soon" Ian said and practically flew away.
"You have something to ask me. You are curious about my group. You want to know what happened in our first level"
"Since you brought up the subject yourself. I can do with some questions"
"I never said I'll answer" Bryce said, amused.
"Then dont initiate such things then." Fina said and walked past him.
"My friends. They aren't perfect but we are okay with each other. Whatever is going on between you and Tyrell. Whatever is going on between you and Xavier-"
Fina turned to look at him.
"For someone so smart, you do seem to miss the important things around you" Fina said
"What?" Bryce asked "Pray tell, what am I missing that you see so well?"
"Enjoy the taste of curiosity. It's bittersweet" Fina said and walked away leaving Bryce completely shocked.
Bryce was in front of her in a flash.
"Here" He said "I got this for you"
He held out a wooden wand to her.
Fina looked up at him, feeling extremely awkward.
"Thanks" She said as she took the wand from him.
"It was mine. I kept it safe. So, it's like a precious gem. I loved the wand. It's special"
Fina resisted the urge to roll her eyes.
"I'll keep it safe. Thanks"
Bryce nodded and walked away.
"You never stop, do you? First, Tyrell. Xavier and now Bryce?"
Fina turned to see Bridget behind her.
"Male seniors are less scary" Fina said
Bridget smiled.
"I see"
Kathleen Osborne approached with Jessica, Coco and Camilla.
"How scary are we?" Jessica asked
Fina looked at them all, trying to decipher who Xiana's roommate might be.
"Sorry to be rude, but I don't have much time to be doing this" Fina said and hurried away.
She really have to start talking to Mr Walker.
But will Mr Walker believe her? They are his best students. He didn't even believe Tyrell could hurt her although she was in the same predicament.
She doesn't have much time.
And if Jessica was released, where exactly is Shelly Jefferson?
