Chapter 4
December 25th 2009
Dear Alex,
Christmas in South America is so warm. I bet you would love the tropics. Here's a late Christmas present. The bird is called a toucan and likes people, or at least this one does. I miss you very much. Bailey misses you as well although she's still not sure why you called yourself Ashley Olsen. I should see you soon I hope. The ship goes back to Boston in 3 months.
XOXO
Alex was reading the latest letter to Justin at one in the morning. With Justin's new habits Alex didn't see much of him. He never did tell her who it was that was sending her the letters and she only remembered during the day to ask him but not at night.
"So are you going to Boston next month?"
"I don't know. I want to meet this person but I don't want to show up and find out that he is not who I expect him to be."
Alex had been worrying about that since the first letter she received.
"I may have to do the Location Spell Justin."
"But dad said that you're not allowed to use your magic to find out who it is."
"I know, but he didn't say I couldn't use yours."
"Alex you know I can't do magic anymore. My powers were taken when Juliet bit me."
"So then where's Max?"
"Asleep. Ask him to do it in the morning since it's Saturday."
"Do you think he'll be able to perform the spell?"
"If you're there he should be fine just don't forget to have an object with you to transport yourself back."
"Why again?"
"Cause if you don't you could get stuck there."
"I just have to make sure I remember that spell as well."
"There's that too."
After sitting in silence for a few minutes Alex finally went to bed when Juliet arrived to take Justin out hunting. When she woke up it was noon and Max was staring at her.
"Justin left me a note saying you wanted to ask me something."
That was how Justin communicated with the family when he went to sleep. He'd leave notes all over the house and get replies when the sun went down.
(Yawn) "Yeah, I need you to do the Location spell for me on one of my snow globes. The ship arrives in Boston next month and I want to know who likes me before they se me."
"How are you going to pull that off? Make yourself invisible and then do the spell?"
"That's exactly how WE are going to do it."
"But Alex I thought dad said you weren't allowed to use your magic to do this."
"To find the person yeah but not to come back home after finding them."
"Oh. So when are we going?"
"How about after you go grab one of the snow globes and the vase we used to practice on."
10 minutes later, invisible, and a shrunk vase in her pocket Alex grabbed Max's arm.
"This person may be far or near so send me to who sent this here."
The two flashed out of Alex's bedroom and into a cabin on board of the S.S. Tipton. Taking a look around the cabin it slowly dawned on her where she was and who was asleep in the bed. Trying not to make a sound she moved closer to the sleeping person and her suspicions were confirmed except it wasn't who she had been expecting.
