Chapter 50

'WHEN YOU FOUR ARRIVED IN our world,' Elena arched an eyebrow at us. 'You each threw off a massive power surge. Something I haven't seen in quite a while. As you might have noticed, there are people in this world who are gifted. They have special abilities and anyone with these abilities will have sensed your arrival too. Even more so after the incident on the griffons.'

Abilities? And what did she mean by power surge? All we'd done was freak out when we thought Sian was in serious danger. I interrupted her. 'Elena, I'm sorry, but I don't think we understand what you're talking about.'

The Sorceress looked surprised.

'Are you saying we have abilities?'

'Yes. You must have. To have given off such an energy wave is absolute proof.'

'But we didn't do anything,' Sian said, looking like the rest of us, very confused.

'Yeah, all we did was pass out,' Kassie said. 'That doesn't sound like an impressive gift to me. Passing out when something scary happens.'

I agreed, 'Totally useless.'
