I was working through a folder I had been given by my assistant, when Myrnin stormed in, once again of thinking of knocking.

"Great news, Amelie!" Myrnin said. "I have made a teleportation machine. There's no need to worry about the limits of the portals. I just need a willing volunteer."

"So why have you brought it to me?" I really hope he wouldn't think I would volunteer. But one look at his face proved otherwise.

"Claire thought you love it! I also need more parts to add more things to it, but its functional! Look!" Myrnin heaved a mess of a machine onto my desk. There were wires everywhere and it looked like it was about to fall apart any minute.

"Did she? That's… Very nice. But I'm busy so you will have to wait to show me." Usually saying that, anyone else would leave, but Myrnin isn't one of them.

"Do you have any suggestions on who could be my volunteer?"

"No."

"Anybody? Oh how about Oliver?"

"How about your pet?" I was tired of Myrnin coming to me of ways he could torture Oliver.

Myrnin looked horrified. "No! The stress could be too much for him. It could kill him!"

"So you don't mind anyone else getting killed in the process?"

"Well… I would mind if anything happened to you…"

"But nothing is, because you're not going to test it on me." I gave him a hard look.

"Of course not!" Myrnin crossed his arms and shuffled his feet. "Please! No-one else will volunteer and it will only take you to the edge of town! I've tested it on Claire!"

I gave him a sharp look. "Is she alright?"

"Perfectly."

"I want to see her."

"There's no need."

"Myrnin."

"Well she can't come to see you because… She might have gone a bit further than the edge of town…"

I sighed, annoyed. When will Myrnin stop field testing his experiments on Claire?

Where is she?"

"She's just in Blacke. She's fine. Now can I please have you as a willing volunteer?"

Casting a long look at him, I said, "She's not in Blacke and I will never be a willing volunteer. Now go and get her back and don't test anything out on her again. Leave."

Myrnin huffed and took his invention away. I got back to what I was doing when suddenly the room started spinning and fading out. I stood, then became dizzy. I closed my eyes for a second and when I opened them again, I was standing on a pavement but I wasn't in Morganville.

I felt an overwhelming sense of dizziness and lost consciousness.

Sorry for a such a short chapter, the next one will be longer!

Review!
