Alex's POV
I woke up and showered early, my head thumping with the hangover from last night. I had drunk too much, but it was all Reid's fault! He had insisted we get alcohol, even though I was underage.

I stood in front of the mirror, staring at myself. My eyes flamed and went pitch black as I got my headache to be soothed. Finally it was standable and I changed, getting ready for class. Rachel was humming with her iPod earphones in, her feet over the edge of the chair.

I frowned at the lump on Leah's bed, "Is that her?"

"Quincy was partying last night." Rachel yawned.

I snorted, "Really?"

She nodded, "You ready?"

"Guess she's coming later, huh?"

"Yeah, let's go."

We drove to school in Rachel's small Hummer. They must have been popular around here or something.

I waved her off and ran to my first class. I was a year younger than everyone, but I had skipped a grade back in high school. Besides... when one can use the black magic, who needs to be a nerd?

I glanced up at the board and then used my power to see over the shoulder of the teacher for the answers.

A few things you should know about Leah, Rachel and I am that we were the daughters of Ipswich. Non-existence. Off the map. We were a secret family, hidden from the sons for years on end. Even to this day, the sons had no idea who we were. Or that we even existed. Unlike the sons, every bit of magic we did, didn't take our life away. We could use it as much as we wanted, even when we ascended.

The day was long and boring. I grinned when I saw Leah running onto campus and Reid smirking at me from under a tree. I waited until Leah got to me, she was puffing, "Damn it, Alex! Why didn't you wake me up?!"

"You looked so peaceful." I sighed, hugging my books to my chest, "Besides... what's half a day?"

She glared at me and then sighed, "Oh well... What's up?"

I blinked, "Nothing much, really. Um," I looked over at Reid and he motioned for me to come over with a finger, "I gotta go... I'll see you later, yeah?"

"Sure..." She nodded, nudging my shoulder and moving passed me. I watched her go and then turned around, walking down the hill to Reid. Wind blew my hair around wildly and I grinned at him, "Hey."

"Well hey," He looked me up and down, "Last night was a blast, huh?"



"It was awesome."

He reached out, twirling a lock of hair between his fingers. I had a seconds trouble breathing, but then I stared into his blue eyes.

He smiled at the piece of hair whilst speaking, "There was no sparks there last night, were there?"

I shrugged, suddenly for some weird reason turning shy, "We were having fun."

He smirked, "I'd like to make up for last night."

I opened my mouth and then closed it again. His eyes flicked to me and his lips cracked, turning into a crooked smile that was to-die-for. He leaned in quickly, but only half way, hesitating before slowly reaching further and further until his lips finally shaped mine. He parted my lips, shoving his tongue deep into my mouth and holding me up to him.

I felt defenseless in his arms, like my limbs had turned to jelly. But it all ended way too soon.

"REID!"

He pulled away very quickly, almost knocking me off my balance. I stumbled, fumbling with my books.

"Sorry Alex," Tyler breathed, "Uhh... Dude, Caleb's looking for you."

"Well let him come," Reid was biting on his nails, his hands covered with fingerless black gloves.

Tyler gave Reid a look that I didn't understand before thumping his shoulder and turning on his heel, waving to me and going off.

I cleared my throat, "Uh... so I have to go..." He had a hard look on his face, staring at the ground. I frowned at him, "So I'll see you 'round."

He raised his fingers up a little before returning them back to his mouth. I walked back to the school, re-living my last moments with Reid.

I was hurrying down the hall quickly to my neck class when some strong force hit me in the back and pushed me into the lockers. I didn't hurt much, but I still dropped my books. "What the fu-"

"Hey Smurf." Rachel grinned, a transparent bubble twirling just above the palm of her hand.

I looked around and snapped at her, "Dude, anyone could see you!"

She shrugged, "Nah they won't."

I glared at her, "Do you have to do that when I'm in a dark scary hall? I mean seriously!"

She laughed, "Whatever... I'll see you after class." She winked, turning and dancing her way down the hall. I let out a shaky breath and then went to class.

Leah's POV



I pulled the strap of my bag over my shoulder and tied my dark hair into a side ponytail, letting strands hang out. I went onto the grassy hill and sat down, spreading my books and papers out. Today it wasn't raining, so it couldn't hurt to spend it outside. I jumped when the bell rang for end and picked up another book, my eyes skimming down its contents.

My phone sprang to life in my pocket and I fumbled to get it, "Yeah?"

"Hey Quincy. Alex and I are gonna go over to quarter field... you know?" Rachel's voice rang in my ear. She was excited about something... that much I could tell.

"Sure okay..."

"Well uhh... we want you to come, silly! You haven't had some real fun in ages!"

I narrowed my eyes, "What if we get caught. That last time was way too close."

There was crackling in the phone and then it was Alex's voice, "We're not gonna get caught! Jeez worry warts! Come on, it's never the same when you're not with us. It makes it stronger when all three of us are there."

I bit my lip and then snapped my book shut with one hand, "Fine. Meet you there in five."

"Awesome."

I put my things away and then jumped into my car, speeding down the road. Quarter field was just it's name, but it was pretty small. It was a grassy field secluded by trees and fences; an ideal place we would go to fool around with some magic.

I passed Caleb's car at the lights and waved when he did. I parked on the side of the road, looked around and waiting for the one lonesome car to pass on this deserted road. I went into the forest, winding around the trees and stepping carefully over logs. Finally I stepped out into a small clearing, bugs flying up out of the grass at my disturbance. I looked around the field, the wind blowing my hair softly as I watched the dark spots between the trees.

Suddenly two things happened almost at once. There was a huge explosion on the ground only ten feet from me, almost knocking me off my feet. Then Alex burst out, "HAH! Mine went further!"

Rachel jumped over the fence and jogged over to Alex, "You stood closer than I did." She pointed.

After trying to restart my heartbeat, I gasped, "You scared the crap out of me!"

Alex laughed, "Oh hey, Leah."

"Hey! You wanna play to? Of course you do," Rachel came and stood next to me, pointing out into the field, "Let's see who gets the furthest out of us three." He closed her hands, palm to palm, and then pulled them slowly apart, a transparent ball of energy glistening between her hands. She raised it up and pegged it at the air, it disappeared out in the field and crashed into the ground, sending up another fountain of dirt.

Alex swung her arm upwards, sucking an energy strike from the ground and then throwing it with lots of force out into the field. It went slightly further than Rachel's.



I sighed and leaned back, twisting my hand and conjuring up my shot. It glowed him my hands before I threw it over arm into the field. It went further then both, "Hah! I win."

"Not fair... we both practice more than you do!" Rachel grumbled.

Alex jumped, "Let's verse..."

"I'm in." Rachel grinned, jogging out onto the field.

Alex walked out, turning slowly to her. I grinned, yelling out, "READY-" their eyes flamed up and went dark, "SET-" Rachel couched a little and Alex's arms were out, "GO!"

Rachel pulled her arms up but Alex shot energy at her, once then twice, the third time actually hitting her in the stomach.

Rachel picked herself up, swinging her arms up and throwing more back at Alex. This went on for quiet a while, what with Rachel and her desperate need to be better and faster than Alex, who easily cruised along.

That was the difference about us three. Rachel was always determined to use her powers to her advantage, doing the stupid with them. Alex was more conservative, but still, usually with better aim than damage like Rach. Me on the other hand; I didn't use mine too much. Usually only if I was falling down a case of stairs or my car wouldn't start. The times when I was in need.

We stayed in the field until it was getting late. But late, I meant cold. We jumped into my car and went back to campus, racing each other to our room and going in.

I was sitting on the end of my bed, Alex behind me and plating my hair. Rachel came back into the room from the showers, muttering to herself as usual.

I sighed, "So guys... how's the boy thing going?"

Rachel gasped, "Oh yeah, Alex... Quincy and Tyler hooked up."

"Seriously?!" She exclaimed.

"It was a good-bye-kiss." I rolled my eyes as they both started to get over-excited.

"Still! I can't believe I didn't see that." Alex grumbled, "What else happened?"

"Well-"

"-Rach and Pogue have a little electricity." I cut Rachel off, making her grin stupidly and fiddle with a strand of her wet hair.

"Do tell." Alex giggled.

Rachel shrugged sitting down, "Tell what? There's not much to tell."

I was grinning at her, "Oh come on..."

She stuck her tongue out, "We kissed... so?"

"Sounds like a bit more than that," Alex laughed, nudging me.



"Oh shut up! What about Reid?" Rachel laughed, changing.

I shrugged, "Well... at break he kissed me."

"Really?" I gasped, turning around.

She giggled, "Yup!"

"Darn girl." Rachel breathed, "Be a matter of time before stuff happens."

Alex rolled her eyes at me and stood up, "Well what about-" There was a knock on the door. I jumped up, "I'LL GET IT!" I opened the door to see Reid standing there. I frowned, "Hey."

"Hello there," He smirked, "Is Alex in?"

"No, she went to France." I grinned. His face was priceless; I rolled my eyes, "Jeez bone head, yeah she's here... hold on."

I turned, "Alex, it's your date."

"Huh?" She frowned, getting up and walking to the door, "I don't have a... Oh... Hey Reid."

I leaned on the other side of the door, listening to their conversation.

"You're looking good."

She looked down at herself, "It's what I always wear."

"Still looking good."

I smirked at her as she side glanced at me. She stepped out and closed the door. "Damn it." I hissed.

Rachel laughed, "Give her a moment... she's gonna run in, tell us in two words that she's going on a date with Reid, grab her jacket and then leave."

I sat back on my bed, "And then what are you and I gonna do?"

She grinned, "I'm going to call Tyler, insist he come over and take you out."

I bit my lip, "Great. And you?"

"What about me?" She rolled her eyes.

"What are you gonna go do?"

She laughed, "Leave that to me." She picked up her phone, but before dialing the door burst open. Alex ran over and grabbed her big hoddie, hanging it over her shoulder.

"Oi, where are you going?" I frowned.

"With Reid." She said quickly before slipping back out the door.



I looked, stunned, at Rachel. She grinned, "Told you." She dialed on her phone and then put it to her ear.

I frowned, "How the heck do you have his phone."

"Connections." She said before changing her tone of voice, "Tyler!" I rolled my eyes at her sickly sweet voice and lay back on the bed. "Yeah, it's Rach. Good, thanks. Uhh, I was wondering..." Rachel could be the dear sometimes... but others she just got on my nerves. Being so persistent with a boy I thought was cute, was really going out of her way. I was a big girl. "So you could? Oh that'd be great! Thank you, she needs it. See you... yeah, bye."

She looked at me, "Excellent. He'll be here in five."

I groaned, rolling over and hiding my face, "Why must you?"

"Cause!" She squealed, "You two are so cute."

Rachel's POV

I let Leah dress in peace as I rummaged through my books and put them on the table. I opened the door and slipped out, telling Leah I was going for a walk. I almost walked straight into Tyler, as I wasn't paying attention. The dark halls of Spenser Academy had changed. Everything was ten times more creepy and dark then usual, and the whole spider freak out a few months ago had shaken people up pretty bad.

The darkness, as much as I loved it, still creeped me out and made me jumpy. I grabbed onto Tyler's arms, letting out a sigh of relief when I saw it was him, "Oh... god, you scared me."

"Sorry," He laughed shakily.

I nodded down the hall, "She's in the room."

"Thanks." I let go of him and he paused, "Where are you going?"

"Me? Nowhere." I shrugged, walking backwards and then turning down the hall. I snuck over the fence of the library, cutting my knuckles on the barbed wire and catching my jeans in them. Alex and I had had out fare shear of practise at sneaking around. A library was no where near as adrenalin producing as when we used to sneak into hospitals or stores or even houses with dogs.

I went to the door and looked over my shoulder, then turning to the lock and shifting my eyes. The lock clicked and I opened the door slowly; it creaked long and loud, sending shivers down my spine. This was my fifth library expedition, except Alex was with me three of the times and Leah once. I cursed at myself for thinking I could do this easily. Alex was usually the one to help me hunt down the books. She was good at that kind of stuff.

It took me two clocks to find the books I wanted. I pulled them out under a small light in the back of the library and sat down, opening them up.

I pressed my finger to the page, following the sentences.

'In 1692, in the Ipswich Colony of Massachusetts, five families with untold power, formed a covenant of silence to protect themselves from persecution. Four of the five bloodlines survive to this day.' I rolled my eyes, "Nothing I didn't already know."



'One family, lusting for more, was banished- their bloodline disappearing without a trace.'

I scanned down the other page with the names of each family, 'Danvers, Parrys, Sims, Putnums, Garwins."

I gathered up the books under my arm and snuck out of the library and back to my room. It was empty, thankfully, so I slammed the books down.

I read over the pages, searching for something. I didn't know what, but it was something. I was intrigued by the Sons. I wanted to know every detail about them. Then my eyes landed on something unexpected and interesting.

'Theodore Danvers had a sister who was believed to have given birth to five daughters, all of which possessed the power much the same as the male Son's of Ipswich. This was believed to be a myth as there are no names recorded of the daughters.'

"Newbury, Quincy, Faxon, Darthmouth and Bethia." I breathed, resiting the names of the five daughters.

I bit my lip and then hastily grabbed a piece of paper, pulling out a pen and writing down the name Theodore Danvers with a line joining to Elizabeth Danvers. I then made a tree down the line of our names. Newbury ending with Alexandra, Quincy ending with Leah-Rose and Faxon with my own name. I frowned flipping through each of the books, but nothing was mentioned of the other two, so I wrote them down too. Catherine Darthmouth and Nicole Bethia. Nicole lived in California and I was pretty sure Catherine was somewhere south, but we'd lost track of her a long time ago.

I stared down at my work, proud of my little history assignment. I jumped up and grabbed my stuff, heading out the door and down to the showers.
