Her wet sneakers squeaked on the slick floor. She stepped in the water she had tracked in. Her foot slipped, she stumbled forward, arms whirling. She caught herself on the beige lockers, struggling to keep from falling over. *Kyle! They're trying to capture me! I need you to wish me to your side!* A strong arm seized her as she pushed away from the locker, spinning her about. Zane loomed over her, pain flaring in her arm. She kneed him in the balls, just like Fatima would. She put all her strength into it. He didn't flinch. No man could have taken that blow without flinching. *Why won't you answer me, Kyle!* Fear twisted the Djinn's stomach. They had neutralized her husband somehow.

She was Christy's friend and believed the rumors about Kyle's involvement in Christy's disappearance. “Be quiet!” Ms. Capello snapped. “Everyone, read from stanza 314. Silent reading.” Britney strode out of the classroom, looking around. She had thought she heard something in the hallway, but it had been muffled by the walls and it was always so noisy between periods.
