Chapter 35
After her "accident" with fire Amy Madison came back to school with her left arm in a cast. Most of the other cheerleaders had signed it along with a few others. Despite this Amy still preferred to eat lunch alone. The physical demands of her sport were hard enough without pretending to get along with girls she considered to be beneath her. That's why Amy was suprised on this particulat Monday when Warren Mears approached her during lunch.
Amy: Do you want something?
Warren: I think you're behind the "accidents" on the other cheerleaders.
Amy: Would that include my own car accident? Or the fire?
Warren: I think your car crash was a letitimate accident, or maybe a suicide attempt. And the fire, I think you were trying to master this energy, and got burned. Point is I've developed this device to locate energy. Energy that has been classified as "magic" by the un-enlightened.
Amy: I'd be very suprised if this alleged device ever holds up in court.
Warren: Who cares about the courts? You want to take out your rivals, that's your business. I just think it's a waste of your talent to use your energy to get on the pom-pom squad.
Amy: Well, you don't know my mother.
Warren: She's your mentor, makes sense. You're powerful, but you seem a bit afraid of her.
Amy: I'm not afraid of you, so get to the point.
Warren: We can pool our talents. I know about science, you know about sorcery. But it's all basically energy, no matter it's origin.
Amy: Interesting, science and magick working together. Towards what end?
Warren: Profit, fun, revenge against those who've put us down.
Amy: Sounds fun. I might have some ideas, we should definitely discuss this further.
