Chapter 31: Family Dinner

I was still flying around when the sun came up. I remembered Cassie mentioning that she liked waking up and seeing me, so I made my way over to Cassie’s room. I watched her sleep peacefully for a while, before her voice echoed in my head; ‘Good morning’. We spent some time just talking mentally to each other, until she went down to have breakfast. I stayed behind in her room, not ready to go home just yet. When she came back up to her room, she told me that she was going to spend the day with Abigail and Leah. I was happy that Leah was coming with them. It worried me that they were spending time with Abigail. Even though everything pointed towards the fact that she was just a human, I didn't trust her. Something was going on and my gut told me that Abigail was in the middle of it. I followed them around for most of the day, my senses on high alert. I was para

Chapter 32: Finding out the truth

Cassie's window was still closed when I got back to the house, she usually left it open for me, but maybe she was still downstairs with the others, talking about how the dinner had gone. I made myself comfortable in the tree, while I waited, it wasn't like I had anywhere else to be. After a while, Cassie called me mentally, telling me that she needed to talk to me. I didn't know what it was about, as I thought that the dinner had gone fine, but she sounded upset. I let her know I was outside and ready to talk when she was. Cassie walked out of the house and down the road, I followed her until we were far enough from the house that I felt comfortable to transform back to my human form. I walked up to Cassie to give her a hug, but she stepped out of my reach. Something was obviously up, it wasn't like Cassie to avoid me.

Chapter 33: Losing Cassie

I'm making my way over to the field where the horses are grazing. I got a horse collar in my hand. Edmond, the farmer I work for, has requested me to get one of the horses back to the stable. As I'm walking along in the fields, I see a beautiful girl. She’s crying. I'm sure that she lives in the village, but I'm not supposed to talk to anyone in the village. Edmond has warned me about going into the village, as they will banish me if they find out what I am. Against my better judgement, I talk to the girl. I can’t stand seeing her upset. I ask her if she wants to come with me to try to catch a horse. While we are walking around the fields, trying to locate the horse I'm looking for, I keep telling her silly stories in an attempt to get her to laugh. It seems to be working. Eventually, we find the horse and I head back to the farm. As we get closer, the girl excuses herself and leaves. I’m happy because sh

Chapter 34: An Honest Talk

My dreams were filled with more memories from the witch village I used to live in, but all the dreams somehow included Cassie. It confused me. I had no real memories of any girl while I lived in the witch village, let alone someone that looked like Cassie. But maybe because of everything that had happened, my subconscious had decided to include some happiness in my dreams as it was doubtful if I would ever be able to be near Cassie again. My heart stung as I thought of Cassie and the possibility that I may have lost her forever. I was lying in my bed feeling sorry for myself when I remembered my plan. I turned into a crow and flew over to the clearing where Leah normally practised her magic. I landed in a tree overlooking the lake. It was a beautiful morning. The sun sparkled in the water. I contemplated how today would go. After a few hours the feeling of ho

Chapter 35: Missing Cassie

Weeks went by. I didn't even bother to go to school anymore. I had promised Leah that I would stay away from Cassie. I struggled, but Leah said Cassie needed time and space, so that was what I was giving her. I thought about letting Nick know what had happened, but Leah had promised to keep Cassie safe, besides I didn’t want to tell Nick that I had failed him. There was still a chance I could fix this. I had been having more dreams about my past, from when I lived in the witch village, but as before in my dreams, I hung out with Cassie in the fields where we first met in my dream. I know the dreams weren’t real, but I cherished them as if they were long lost memories. It was the only time I got to see Cassie nowadays. In an attempt to think about Cassie less, I had kept myself busy by sorting out the house and th

Chapter 36: History of the Shapeshifters

I went through the whole upper floor of Cassie's house and picked up on something.  There was a dark energy that didn’t belong. The energy could be felt in everyone's bedroom, apart from Abigail's. The enchantment around the house also felt different, but was that because it had changed, or had I just not felt it in a long time? I went home and buried myself in books, hoping to find any information or connection between disappearance and lack of abilities, but so far, I hadn't found anything helpful. The doorbell rang. “It’s open. Just step inside,” I yelled. I didn't have time to go and open the door for them. With my head still in the books I saw Leah in my peripheral vision walking into the living room followed by Mark and Seth. I was both grateful and surprised that

Chapter 37: Connecting with Cassie

For the rest of the day, I didn't know what to do. I walked around the house, then went back to my books. Failing to find anything useful, I got up and walked around again. I felt so powerless. This was so much worse than when I had to stay away from Cassie, at least then I knew that she was alright. Now I didn't know anything, I turned into my crow form and flew around for a while, it usually helped to calm me down and to sort out my thoughts and feelings.  Should I go and see Freya? Would she know where Cassie could be? No, she told me that she couldn't help. Should I tell Nick what was going on? I decided against it. I told myself that it was because I didn't want to waste time, but in reality I didn't want to admit to Nick that I had failed. Besides, it was my mess to clear up. I flew around until the sun came up before I headed back home. I knew I n

Chapter 38: Hidden doorways

"Dammit Jax, Wake up. Don't do this to me." I opened my eyes. It took me a while to realise where I was. I was no longer in a sitting position but lying down on the floor with Leah sitting on top of me. What was going on? "Thank god, you're awake." Leah looked at me, relief written all over her face. "Your heart stopped. What happened? Did you talk to Cassie?" I collected myself and explained everything that had happened. Leah listened attentively, but when I got to the end, she seemed disappointed. Leah let out a sigh. "So we still don't know where she is?" I shrugged and gazed into her eyes. "At least we know she is alive." Both of us were quiet for a while. I guess we wer

Chapter 39: Guided by my Heart

Leah came around the house the next day. I was excited and eager to share my plan, so before she even had a chance to say anything but good morning, I started talking. "I think I know how we can get to Cassie." "Really, how?" Leah sounded hopeful but at the same time she looked a bit sceptical. I walked into the living room and gestured for her to follow me. I approached the table, where I had left all the books that I had picked out the day before, and started showing her different pages from different books. "Maybe you can try to send me to Cassie, almost like a reverse summoning spell." Leah glanced at all the books and notes with raised eyebrows. "None of these spells seems to show you how to do that. And there is nothing in

Chapter 40: A Trip to the Past

I was back in the fields again, like in my dreams, but I somehow knew that this was the past. It was like I was back in my past body watching through the eyes of a younger me. I worked for a farmer, Edmond. Freya had sent me there to get acquainted with the human world. His wife had died a few years ago and his children had moved away, so it was mutually beneficial. He knew what I was, but treated me like a son. I had been warned about using my abilities and discouraged from going into the village, as it was full of witches that didn’t take well to outsiders. There was also the chance someone would be able to discover what I was. While I was on my way to pick up a horse from a field, I ran into the most beautiful woman I had ever met. She looked like Cassie, but slightly different. She had the same piercing blue eyes, but her hair was blond. She looked up at me with watery eyes and apologised for trespass
