Chapter 96

Miranda was unsure of what was going on with me, but she felt as if it would be safe enough to check it out for herself. We left the safety of the castle walls and we were all now standing, in the pouring rain, in the middle of the field I was at yesterday. Lightning flashed as thunder boomed over our heads. I felt extra energized and I was wondering if this would be a great idea.

"Okay, Avalynn. Are you ready?" Miranda looked at me.

I looked over to Everest, who nodded his head in my direction. "Okay, yeah. Sure." I said, a little unsure of myself.

Regardless, I focused on the energy and my task at hand. I closed my eyes, finding my center.

"Jump," Everest commented, and I did.

I jumped high before I came crashing into the ground. The ground seemed to shake when I landed. I stood up right and looked over at Miranda. "Anything?"

"No, nothing. Strange." She held her hands up in front of her face, looking at them. She looked back over to me with a puzzled look. "Can you manipulate the weather?" Miranda motioned above as thunder rolled across the sky.

I shook my head. "No, well, I haven't tried yet." I shrugged my shoulders.

"Could you try?" Brent asked me and I nodded my head.

I concentrated, unsure of what to really do. I closed my eyes and relaxed my mind as I felt the energy build inside. When I opened my eyes and looked up to the sky above, rain hit my face, washing over my skin. I instinctively raised my hands up and pushed them away from one another. The clouds in the sky pushed apart and the rain split and moved from either side of the field. It was wild. I looked back at the three of them, standing there in awe of what was going on. That's when the rain came down again as my concentration broke.

"Holy cow! That's cool! I have heard of a weather witch before but I have never met one." Miranda said excitedly.

"Yeah, but I feel strong too. It's weird. Like I am still siphoning from everything magical." I told her.

Brent spoke up, "What would be really cool is if you could focus your siphoning on one individual to make them weaker."

"Yeah, like one of the siblings. If you could manage to even siphon between the two of them and then you could drain them both at the same time..." Miranda trailed off.

"Oh! We could kick their ass easily." Everest said with a victorious laughter that was damn near evil.

"Yeah, but how can she safely work on this without hurting or damaging another witch?" Brent asked.

We were all standing there, drenched to the bone without a clue about how to solve the question. How could I accomplish something like this and keep everyone safe or unharmed even?

"I guess we should head back and get cleaned up." I mentioned after several moments. "Besides, Miranda and I have some small things to tend to before tomorrow." I smiled over at her.

"Oh, yes. I just need to adjust a few things. Not too much more to go, maybe the seating arrangements for dinner." Miranda smiled.

"I can help you." I offered and she nodded at me.

I looked and saw where people would be sitting. I searched for where Everest and I would be sitting. We would be sitting at the table directly next to Miranda and Brent.
