when I heard my name from them.

"I don't think she might be the girl." Cyrus added.

"You don't understand it. The seer has shown her vividly." the dark cloak man said.

He made a movement as if he is rubbing away the flames. Then in the mantel images flickered and two persons were standing they are of same height as the cloak person. The other one is asking the cloak person to look into a ball with white mist .It turned and turned until it formed an image of me!!!!!!!!

I gasped and the cloak person stared right through my place.

"I don't think we are alone." the cloak person said.

Panicked, I tried to run but I couldn’t I was paralyzed. I cried for help.

Rose...Rose....

"You are freaking me, girl."Helen said.

"I'm sorry it's just a bad dream." I said.

The classes have been canceled. Since, there is a meeting in the afternoon. We are to be the audience of Ms. Elisa. I wanted to find Jesse I have to ask many questions

"Hey." Jesse said.

"Jesse."

"Want to talk to me. Let's go to our place." he said.

We sat under our tree.

"Jesse, I really had a weird dream yesterday. My dreams they are like I'm literally there in that dreams."

I can see his dubious look.

"I can't explain of how it is but one thing I can tell you is they are not my dreams they are like really happening to me."

I told him about him about my dream. He listened patiently.

"Do you know what a soul-mate means?" he asked.

"A person ideally suited to another." I murmured.

"Yeah."

"There is a rule for the magical beings set by our great grandfathers. It says that once you choose a soul-mate you will be destined whether you are a night ling or an earthling. It's complicated to differentiate but all i can say is this, a nightling is like a bad guy and where as an earthling is a good guy."

“The guy you have seen in your dream is the lord of nightlings. He is the cruelest person I have ever heard about." he added.

"What's all this got to do with me? I'm not even a magical being and you said this law is for magical beings."I muttered.

"That's what bugs Me." he said.

"May be it's just a weird dream."I said.

"In this world everything has a meaning, Rose." he said.

I nodded not knowing what to say

"Let's go and meet harry." he said.

"Good morning, Mr. Harry." I said.

"Morning, Ms. Rose."

Jesse said all about my weird dream to Mr. Harry. He listened intently and asked for every minor detail to fill in.

"As I have already mentioned you are not going to stay longer in that house." Mr. Harry said.

"Does that mean she will become one of us?" Jesse said excited.

"Not so fast." Mr. Harry said.

"What does Cyrus want from her?" Jesse asked.

"We will find it sooner if he is the lord of nightlings himself or some random person." he said.

"Harry, you know everything why don't you say it and spare us from waiting." Jesse said.

"Learning is a process." He said it and disappeared.

"Jesse," harry reappeared.

"I need to talk in private." He added looking at me.

"I'll wait outside, Jesse." I said.

"What is it?" Jesse asked.

"Do me a favor. I need you to come at midnight to my room." he said.

"What for?" Jesse said.

"Okay, I'll come if it is about Rose." he said indignantly.

"Ha! All these years of waiting has ended." harry added with a smirk.

Jesse waved his hands in disposal of Harry's comments.

"What did he say?"

"Nothing important."

"You know I can make you tell."

"Really?"

"Hey, there. Where have you been?" Ronny said coming towards us.

"You know he likes you more than you think." Jesse said.

"No, he is not." I said.

"I read minds not you."

"May be you got it wrong."

"May be he likes me as a sister."

"I hope that would be true but it's not like that." he said.

How can he love me? I'm neither beautiful nor intelligent. I thought that is what guys look for most in girls.

Jesse burst into laughter at once.

"What's that for?" I asked.

"Just hearing your thoughts."

I wanted to smack him but seeing Ronny I knew I shouldn't do that.

"Rose, I'll be at the end of the corridor. Talk to him and please say no to him for my sake."

"What?"

He smiled and went away humming his tune.

"Hey, Rose."

"Feeling better?" I asked.

"Yeah!"

"You know we have time until noon." he said.

I looked at Jesse at the end of the corridor. He looked smug.

"So?" I asked.

"Can I buy you coffee?" he asked.

"Oh! I'm sorry I 'm kind of busy right now."

"May be some other time then." he said.

"Sure."

"Rose, this is for you." he said giving me a chocolate.

"Thanks."

"Heard you love chocolates." he said.

I went to Jesse and he was really concentrating on something hard.

"What's it?" I asked.

"I heard Elisa speaking about you to harry but then when I tried to listen. It's like they shut me off from hearing." he said.

"What were they talking about?" I asked.

"I don't know," he said.

"Let's find out." he added.

"How? I mean didn't you say they shut you off." I asked.

"They want to talk to you. They sent Henry to search for you."

We went into harry for the second time in the day. I was really surprised to see Elisa there. She is really the most beautiful person than anyone in this world. She seemed to wrap in the aura of power. I can feel her power radiating all over the room. Her smile was so alluring.

"Rose, I have heard so much about you. It’s a pleasure meeting you. “She said smiling.

I felt embarrassed what could she have listened about me. Probably that I’m a dim witted girl.

"I have heard that you are a mind controller."

I murmured something like yes. I was so lost in her beauty and power.

"Do me a favor shut him off from trying so hard to listen to my thoughts? He is only straining himself." she said smiling at Jesse.

"I'm sorry," He mumbled.

"You are a great mind reader but sometimes it does better not to know everything."

"Your gift is very rare so use it wise my child."

"I have something for you it's to keep bad dreams away." she said and presented me a bracelet.

"Thanks, Ms. Elisa." I said.

"You can call me Lisa." she said smiling.

"Put it on tomorrow when I leave and never take it away." she said.

I nodded.

"Jesse I need to ask you a personal favor." she said.

She remained silent for a while.

"I can do that." Jesse said after a while.

We went into the dining hall tables were removed and chairs are placed. When Lisa entered the room the chattering was stopped and everyone looked at her with awe.

She addressed the gathering and her words echoed through the hall.

"Enough of the learning sessions, now it's time for us to practice everything we have learned. You must know the danger you are about to face and be prepared to fight against the nightlings.Our enemies have strengthened their powers and they have a plot to destroy us all .They wish to spare no earthling and we are the only hope that world has got. From now on your capability is not measured by a series of written tests but by the tasks we assign to you. Task may be anything but do not take them as simple thing because you may even die in finishing this task.(gasps!!!!!All over).I don't want to spread fear among you but trust me you have to get prepared for the worse that is going to happen. United we fight the evil and bring peace to our loved ones."

"All I ask you is to start practicing what you have learned all these days. From this year onwards there will be no written exams. (Everyone cheered at this announcement but she hushed them with a single wave of her hand.)You will be having tests where you will encounter your true fears and where you will put to practice all that you have learned for many years. The simple combats will be arranged among the three groups not in between a single group, as everyone has to learn their defenses. To mark the end of every academic year you will be having a hunt. The rules of the hunt will be given when it's right time".

"Do well and think well. “she added and hurried to the headmaster's room.

There are lots of questions in everyone's mind but there seemed to be no other way to find out the answers because everyone hurried after Lisa.

5.Dream walker

"Hello, Harry." Jesse said.

"You asked me to come here." he said.

"You wanted to know more about Rose. Right?" harry asked.

"I'll show you what she really is." he added.

At that Elisa entered the room. I greeted her. What's she doing here? She sat right next to me and harry.

"Jesse, project the visions of rose." he said.

I did what he said. Rose is lying on her bed covered in pink mattresses and the color is similar to her cheek color. She looked pleased with her dream for her face was pretty much serene. I was so lost in her beauty when Elisa tugged me to see what she was pointing at. Rose's forehead creased with a line and then another, her body became rigid as if she was staring right at a ghost.

"Read her mind." Elisa whispered.

I concentrated on her mind and then I saw a blurry vision of a dark hooded figure staring right at me. Then everything went blank. Now I looked at the projector rose is turning pale. In a few seconds she is a like ghost .I gasped for breath. I continued to stare at her for many hours. I didn't know how much time we sat there staring at the ghost form of rose. After what seemed to be 3 hrs, rose was coming back to her body. Slowly color appeared in her skin and then the lines of her skin and the tension lines and then she shrieked at the top of her voice at first her voice seemed to be distant. It’s like her voice is traveling from a distant place to her own mouth. Helen came scuttling towards her hushing her. I clapped my hands and closed the projection.

I closed my eyes and worked on something practical to speak about the thing I saw now. Elisa patted me.

"She is a dream walker." I mumbled.

Elisa and harry nodded.
