A/N: The ending of each chapter was already written by Lady Neelahn. She used to write backwards. I'm only responsible for the beginning of each chapter.

The Magical Board, better known as The Witch Brigade. It was said that it is an institution that existed since the beginning of time. They were created to protect the innocent from witches who abuse their powers.
At the beginning the institute was so secret that its existence was not even confirmed. Only since 500 years has the institute been open and honest about its existence.
Today the board consisted of five shadowy figures that symbolized the 5 clans. And an eldery who was said to have a wisdom that was unsurpassed.
Their main task after keeping the magic use in check was training the Magical One. Preparing the Magical One was not an easy task. Apart from mastering all specialties of the 5 clans, the Magical One had to learn a lot more.
They were also the guardians of the Witches Book. The Witches Book contained all the secrets and predictions about mankind and earth that still had to take place. In a sense, the Witch Brigade was the guardian of the future.
None of the Bella Witches had seen a member of the Witch Brigade. Some of them noticed that strange things happened since Aubrey's announcement.
Stacie was suddenly attacked with glimpses of future events. It happened at the most unconventional times. At first she thought it was coincidence, later she realised those flashes meant something. Something that she needed to stop. Or sometimes she had to do something small to change the course of events.
Jessica was bombarded with magical fireballs that seemed to appear from nowhere. She could stop them in time when she instinctively lifted her hands and mumbled a spell. A spell that she did not even know she knew.
Chloe found out that she suddenly had the gift of healing. During one of her classes she treated a dog with a big cut. When she touched the cut on his paw, she noticed that the wound was healing.
For some reason nothing weird happened to Aubrey, Beca, Cynthia Rose or Lilly. They originally thought that the three other girls were going crazy. That they were imagining things because they were excited about what the Witch Brigade had planned for them.
But then something happened during practice that made them change their minds. During choreography practice, Stacie suddenly fell on the floor.
She just lay there and didn't respond to anyone. Three minutes went by before Stacie got up. With an empty look in her eyes she just stared in front of her.
Beca immediately realised what had happened. Stacie had told her before that when she got a glimpse of the future she fell.
The tiny brunette kneeled down next to her friend and put her hands on Stacie's shoulder.
"What did you see Stace?" Beca asked her worried.
Stacie blinked a few times with her eyes before she realised that Beca was talking to her.
"I'm not sure. It was kinda blurry. I need to think about it before I can make something of it" the taller brunette said as she avoided eye contact.
It was a lie. Stacie knew exactly what she had seen. And what it meant. She just couldn't put herself to tell them. If it was true what she had seem, and she didn't doubt that, then they had a big challenge ahead of them. If they would fail their task, the consequences would be horrifying. Failing meant that some of them could die. That thought send shivers down the brunettes spine.
She needed to find a way to prevent this. But first she needed to write down what she had seen. She needed to analyse it before she could tell the others. And she needed to so it fast. If she was correct they had only 48 hours….
