::Chapter One: Sensing Magic::



"Emily! What's the hurry?" cried Kara Davies as she chased after her friend, her long blonde hair blowing behind her.

"We're late! Adriane wanted to show us something and we were suppose to be there 15 minutes ago!" called Emily Fletcher.

When they finally reached the entrance of the Ravenswood Preserve forest, the saw Adriane Charday waiting for them. "That took long enough," she said, tucking a loose strand of her long black hair behind her ear. She smiled.

"Sorry!" Emily said, gasping for breath. "I had to do something for Mom at the Pet Palace." Adriane nodded. "It's okay. Sorry if I caught you two at a bad time. But Storm wants to tell us something. She says it's really important."

They followed Adriane to the Rocking Stone. Behind the Rocking Stone they spotted Stormbringer, the mistwolf, sitting beside the glade.

"Hey Storm, what's up?" asked Kara as the three girls approached the mistwolf. Storm stayed silent for a moment, with her eyes closed. "I sense something," she replied.

"Like what?" Emily asked softly. Storm's eyes flashed open. "Magic. Strong magic."

"Magic? Do you think it could be dangerous?" asked Adriane, looking worried. "It may be. Or it may not. But you can never be too careful," Storm said.

"How long have you been sensing it?" Kara asked. "About a week ago." Adriane's eyes widened. "A whole week ago? And you never told us? Why?" she asked, looking slightly angry and worried.

"There is magic everywhere in this forest," Storm replied calmly. "At first I couldn't tell but now I know. This is different. There is something here with powerful magic."

"But who else could there be with magic besides us, Ozzie, and the other animals?" Emily asked.

Storm shook her head. "That's what I was wondering. But there is something here. I'm sure of it."

The four of them walked back towards the Ravenswood Manor. Little did they know that their every move was being watched.
