AN~ I said I'd update once a week, and here I am! I hope I updated on Friday last week... Oh well. Sorry it's short, it's a filler.
redfirepixie: I'll do you a favor and just write it out in the chapter.
elliegoat: Phobias are weird. I'm claustrophobic in my sleep but not when I'm awake... much... and spiders terrify me except for the tiny jumpy ones, which I love.
Sabrina was sitting on the porch roof later that night, writing in her journal.
I have a new power. I can tell when people are lying. I found out a few minutes ago when Bella Amphibian told me her story, which I'll do her the favor of keeping a secret. I could tell when she tried to lie to me about having an ulterior motive for coming here. This motive, by the way, isn't hostile. My powers now consist of the following: Weather, element and gravity control, flight, barrier manipulation, and lie detection. I have a feeling there's more to come.
No progress on the swords phenomenon mentioned in Anastasia's journal. Baba Yaga says she might know what they are, she needs to do more research. In the meantime, I am reading Wilhelm's journal. I have yet to discover what happened to Jakob.
I think Bella's a friend, but I should probably question her more thoroughly. Daphne, Granny, and Red already trust her. I think she's got news for us, and if she does, Granny's not going to have her tell us until she's sure we can believe her. That means we have to convince my parents and Puck. I'll start on him tomorrow. Mom should be easy, Dad we can most likely ignore. He's still being difficult.
My tiredness seems to be fading a little. Of course, that's probably because I haven't done much magically recently since we had a potential spy in the house. I still need to figure out if and how to tell Bella this. Until then, I can't train much. the Scarlet Hand has been quiet since their attack on Baba Yaga three days ago.
Signing off,
Sabrina Grimm.
She stared at the trees for a long time after that, hugging Puck's sweater and thinking of the best way to tell him what had happened earlier that night.
