Chapter 3
Miss Peregrine looks at her pocket watch before stand up.
-Miss Peregrine? Ask Emma
-I need to reset the loop. I come back.
-Oh Miss Peregrine can we come with you please? Said little Claire
-Of course.
-You'll see its fantastic! She exclaims to the others child
The kids' takes place in the garden and faced the house. Miss Peregrine looked everybody before draw her attention on the person she wants.
-Katsa, why can you join me to see how we reset a loop?
The young girl joins the headmistress. The bombs start to fall, and the planes passed over them. Miss Peregrine explains the entire steps to her daughter showing her the pocket watch. The plane approached, the kids' have theirs eyes clue to the sky fearing what was about to happen. The bomb approached rapidly to the house, Miss Peregrine stop suddenly the time before go back up of 24 hours. Everybody look the sky change dazzled. Cheers rang in the crowd, the ombrune turned around towards the children smiling.
-Go back inside, we didn't finish eating! She said
Alma put an arm around her daughter shoulder, wanting to enjoy the little time they have together.
-Do you control your particularity?
-I practice every day to improve. At the beginning, I could only call an object on my hand. Now I can control him, do what I want with it. I can call it and go make it bang. I couldn't control my I eclipse; it's by having hiccup that I discover that I can eclipse myself. After years of training I can control it better and now I try to eclipse myself with others people in growing the numbers. It's can be useful one day if we need rush to leave the loop.
-And soon you will be an ombrune.
Alma is proud of her daughter, of what the young girl is become. And she sure that Katsa will become an amazing ombrune one day. But she has a small plucking in the heart because it's not her who taught her everything to become a woman, and an ombrune.
-I hope to be a good one.
Katsa walked away in the garden after that Miss Peregrine reset the loop. Although she explain to her, in general, how to reset the loop. Katsa was sad that she only speak to her about that. What Katsa want is to know/learn about her mother first and learn about how become an ombrune then. The young girl was tired of heard story about her mom without know her. She was thinking that Miss Peregrine, her mom, want to know her too, she's her daughter after all. But since Katsa arrived in Miss Peregrine loop, Alma doesn't really talk to her. Just a few words sometimes but it was not what Katsa want to heard. She wants to know why her mother left her.
Miss Peregrine has seen that Katsa had gone away but she was thinking that the best was that let some time. "I don't want to overwhelm her; she will think that I go to fast." Alma LeFray Peregrine quickly wiped a tear which had escaped and call for everybody attention.
-Common children, everybody inside, it's began to be cold and its bedtime soon. And to go home Jake.
Olive doesn't move, she has remarked the bewildered face of Katsa. And she wants to go talk to her. Despite shyness, she feels that Katsa can become a friend.
-Olive…
-Don't worry for me Miss Peregrine, I'll be fine.
Miss Peregrine make a sign, understanding what Olive was about to do. And inside of her, Alma was happy about Olive make a first step. It's not in Olive habit, she's too shy.
Olive finally joins the tree where Katsa is seating. We can hear snob. The girl put her hand on Katsa shoulder without removing her glove. Katsa startle and turn to see Olive
-What are you doing here Olive? You're scaring the hell of me.
-Sorry, I just want to see if you're okay. I don't like see people sad or crying.
-Don't worry, I will be okay. And I always do everything alone since I'm little. I have the habit.
-It's because of Miss Peregrine?
-It's complicate.
Katsa curled up on herself. Her jacket couldn't hold the cold night wind on the island of Cairnholm. Olive saw it and takes some twigs which were around the tree and go back with Katsa.
-What are you doing? Katsa Ask
-I'll do a little fire because you cold.
-You don't have to do this, you know.
-It's make me happy and perhaps its will not take me so long.
Olive removes her glove and a little flame appears in her hand. She put it on the twig and without a minute the fire start. Katsa got closer of the fire, wipe a tear and try to warm her hands.
-Thank, It's really cool.
-I told you! You must to listen to me.
Both girls laughed and rest like that for a long time, just talking and laughing. Olive was playing with the flames and Katsa was looking consumed by the magic. Horace join them just to tell them to go back inside before Miss Peregrine become upset. Katsa take her friend hand before eclipse themselves to the living room where everybody was.
-Ah finally you here! Miss Peregrine said smiling.
-What were you doing outside? Miss Avocette asks.
-Oh nothing, just talking. Olive answer
-Good, it's time for us to go home in our loop. Tell Miss Wren
-You can stay here tonight if you want. Intervened Miss Peregrine
The ombrune thank her but she need to go back to her loop to reset it in a few hours. The others ombrunes don't have to reset their loops accepted to stay for the night. Like that the children can enjoy being all together. Emma offered to bring Jake until the passage to the loop, Miss Peregrine hesitate a moment. She fears that the big assembly aroused the suspicious of the Estres.
-I can eclipse myself with him until his pub and come back here be my eclipse. Nobody can see me. Propose Katsa
-You can leave the loop like this? Asks Jake surprise
-Yes, I've exercise. Our particularity is like the sport, more you practice and more you strong. Here it's the same. And I want to be capable to eclipse myself with everybody if one day we have to leave the loop.
-I'll be relieved by this solution. If it's doesn't bothering you Katsa
-Not a tall. Emma you want to come? We're being back in five minutes.
-Only if you can.
-I can do it with three people now.
