Alone in his room, Kit lay on his bed and stared at the ceiling, thinking.

A test.

What in the universes could that mean?

He got up and checked his manual, but nothing had changed. Sighing, he got up and went downstairs. It was late, and he liked to eat cereal at night. And right about now Kit thought he could use a nice soothing bowl of cornflakes.

Carmela was down there, watching TV. Kit poured himself the cornflakes and wandered over, spooning them into his mouth. "What are you watching? Alien shopping channels?"

Carmela, without taking her eyes off the television, replied, "Nope."

That would have been normal, except that she said it in the Speech.

"'Mela?" Kit said, genuinely surprised. "Since when do you talk to me in the Speech?"

"Huh?"

"Carmela!" Kit cried, exasperated. "Why are you talking to me in the Speech?"

"Oh, did I? Whoops, my mistake."

Kit shook his head. Carmela was picking up on wizard tendencies more and more lately, and it made him uncomfortable. What was next? Actual wizardry? He shivered. He didn't like to think about what would happen if Carmela became a wizard. She has to be too old by now, he thought, by way of consolation. I don't have to worry. He looked at the back of Carmela's head and, sighing, went to put his bowl in the sink.

Ten minutes later he was back in his room, restlessly flipping through the manual. He checked his listing again. Rodriguez, Christopher....blah blah blah....Active status. Something drew his eye to the listing about his, and what he saw nearly stopped his heart.

Rodriguez, he read. Carmela.

A/N: I know! It's short! I'm sorry, I can't get past the short-chappie mindset. But there will be more soon, I promise!
Anyway, what do you think?? Carmela's a wizard? Uh-oh....:-D Review please! P.S.: I wasn't expecting things to turn out this way! I realized I needed to update, and while I was sitting in front of the computer, inspiration struck! Sorry for the shortness again but I love suspense! Ahahahahah....review please and you'll get more!
