{Story so far}
A rumor is flying around the Institute about Ciara being a Tier 3 Mage and her being the sole person who defeated Mia.
While this is true, it is in Ciara's best interest that the secret remains hidden.
At the same time the rumors begin to fly, Mia resumes classes. Suspicion falls on Mia, who seems to have turned over a new leaf, though Ciara doesn't buy the new change.
Ciara is challenged by seniors, and she emerges victorious. In the process she begins to realize that her power seems to be intoxicating her, making her seem more like Mia, whom she despises.
She spares the seniors, who flee in fear, causing her to leave the devastated scene to rest in her room.
The thought haunts Ciara in her mind...
... What changes are beginning to occur within her, and the growing fear of becoming the bully she resents.
