Charlie looked up at the girl incredulously. Could this be the person with the unseeable book? It had to be. "Why are you here?" he asked. He didn't mean to seem rude, but it was the best he could do. She looked up at him, flashing her odd violet eyes, looking trance-like. "In exactly thirteen minutes, the alarm will be raised and word will be spread that a child in Bloor's has been kidnapped. This will cause great worry, for she is one of the endowed…… she is in great peril, Charlie Bone… you must help her…"
her eyes begin to change colour, and there were now a hard lightning blue. She stumbled a ways, then leaned on the bed stand. He looked at her skeptically, then, "what are you talking about?"
she stared at him. "Oops! Did it happen again? Yes, I know the feeling. I've just slipped into a time frame, that's all. I do it all the time when something can be done about it." When he gave her a disbelieving look, she sighed, and started again. "My endowment is quite complex, but, in a way, it is quite similar to Olivia's. I think of a world, or time, or place, and I can go there. I can create my own world just by thinking of it. Sometimes, though, my mind leaves me and… Travels, I guess, through time, if help is needed. Only one problem with that, though; I cannot actually hear what will happen, so when I know it is to happen, I run to the nearest person, which happened to be you. I was going to visit you anyways, Charlie, but this way is much more convenient."
Charlie began making calculations in his head. The only ones who could have been kidnapped were Zelda, Emma, and Olivia. "Do you want me to repeat what I heard for you?" he asked. She nodded in reply, and he repeated it for her. She was startled at her own prediction. "This is much more serious than I thought. Charlie, have you ever heard of the Dreamers' Society?"
He remembered the book Ben had seen, and nodded. "You're the president of it." She looked at him quizzically. "Yes… I'll ask about that later… anyways, the dreamers' society is a group of endowed people that have similar endowment as me. I realized a few days after I discovered my talent how powerful I could be. I could create my own world, my own perfect world, and live there, right? Bit I don't, because that would be abandoning this poor, unfortunate world. But to change a whole world, Charlie is a very mean feat. So, I told others with my endowment, and they all agreed and joined. We called it the dreamer's society, for, in a way, we were all dreamers. So, when Olivia heard of her talent, we consulted her about it, and she declined. But we need one more person to change the world, Charlie, Just one. Some people have traveled from North America to join the society. And, if my theory is correct, they have kidnapped Olivia and forced her to join against my will…"
Charlie interrupted. "Well, how am I going to help? I broke my neck clear off!" Rowan smiled. "Let me help you." She wrapped her hands around his neck gently, though it still hurt. Then, he felt a curious feeling trickle down his spine "you are healed. Go. Save Olivia Vertigo from swearing an oath she was never meant to take. Hurry!" he got up, and he noticed that the nurse, Pearl, was watching the whole thing from her desk, she smiled and beckoned him away. He ran out of the hospital room and into darkness. He took a glance at his watch. It was nearing midnight. He looked over to see Rowan glancing at his watch. Her eyes widened as she saw the full moon peeking out from the window. "We need to hurry."
