Mana, in the context of magic and the supernatural, refers to a form of metaphysical or spiritual energy that is often believed to be the source of power for performing magical or mystical actions. It is a concept found in various cultures and belief systems, and its nature and properties can vary depending on the specific magical or spiritual tradition.
In this novel, mana is portrayed as a measurable and replenishable resource that magic users or spellcasters draw upon to perform spells, rituals, or other supernatural abilities. It can be likened to a reserve of magical energy that individuals harness and manipulate to bring about desired effects. The amount of mana required for different magical tasks may vary, and spellcasters often need to manage their mana reserves wisely to avoid exhaustion or depletion.
Some Magicians have more Mana than others. The more the Mana, the stronger the person's power in Magic.

Sensing Mana was a skill that her mom had taught her when she was little even before her mom found out that she (Catherine) could harness Magic.
Sensing Mana was a skill that not only Magicians could learn, but also humans, Vampires, Dhampir's and even some Werewolves. Although, Vampires are more likely to have Mana than Werewolves. There have been few cases where a Vampire would be able to harness Mana and perform Magic, it was extremely rare. But as for Werewolves it was almost impossible and in some situation impossible. Let's just say A Werewolf can know no Magic.
As Catherine sensed this person's aura she could tell that this person was a Strong Magician. His Mana even looks stronger than her Mom, but although not as strong as her Grandpa; Nicholas.
Using her telepahatic ability, she sent a message to Watson, Emily, Miller, Lillian and Alex. "Guess come close to me. Let's teleport. I don't have enough energy in me to do it more than once. So please come let's Leave here. This person is the Dark Magician."
Alex heard the message and he was on the floor extremely weak and couldn't move and inch. The Werewolves who were fighting with him; Isaac Johnson, Jacob Williams and Olivia Davis all went to Benjamin and Sophie's back and so did the ones close to Sophie.
Everyone started to feel fear Building up inside of them and even Miller started to feel it too.
'Is it some kind of power.' Miller thought.
Miller couldn't stand up, the tree feel on top of his body, his forearms were growing, but he still had no strength to stand up and couldn't do anything just lying there with the tree on top of him.
Lillian, Emily and Watson couldn't leave without the others. Emily on the other hand started to move backwards gradually as she feared that she might be taken the second time.
"Don't worry, i am not here for you." The Dark Magician said, his voice sounded harsh and unrecognizable, like it was altered by a spell or something. "I want him; Miller Edward."
After he said those words, the tree on top of Miller's body turned to ashes like it had been burnt by an invisible fire and Miller's body started levitated in the sky uncontrollably and his body started moving like he was flying Without his control and he was standing in front of them.
"What did i do to you." Miller said to the person.
"You saved Emily remember." The person said. "I know Catherine, Alex, Lillian and Watson helped you."
"But i am more interested in you." The person concluded.
"You can't just take him." Emily said now moving forward towards him slowly and scared. "Take me instead. He came to save me and I can't let him die because he saved me."
"Good girl." The Dark Magician said. "But i want to show you all my power. So that you would know who you are dealing with."
The Dark Magician walked past Miller and then pointed his finger at one of the Werewolves; Sophie Smith and he started to say spells.
Sophie ran towards him with full speed with the aim of cutting of his head. But when she got close her whole body froze in time like she couldn't move and then her whole body turned into a liquid substance and she didn't look like she had a solid form as she fell on the floor like water.
"Don't worry. She is going to turn back to her normal self after an hour or two." They heard the dark Magicians voice inside their heads; he had Telepathy.
"I don't want to do anything or cause Damage to anyone. You mind your business and i mind my own. I just want to send you a message and a message clearly. i want this message to enter your heads." The voice continued.
"The Dark Magician Lives!!!" He said these words with his mouth. "If any of you cross my path. I wouldn't hesitate to kill you."
SWOOSH!
A bright light appeared and the Magician was no more, the magician had disappeared.
"I know who he is." Miller said. "With my X-ray Vision, I was able to see who he is."
"He is Principal Colonel Benjamin Henderson." Miller concluded.
