Hi Alyssa,

 

Right now, Isabelle and I are eating dinner, and I should be at your new home as soon as you get there. I’m not only giving you the object Isabelle had told you about but also something else. If you don’t have a safe, that’s fine. An old shoebox will do.

 

Thank you,

Mathias

 

Alyssa crumpled the note and threw it away. Walking back to her table, she saw Alex exit the men’s room.

“Are you ready to go, Alyssa?”

“Yep.”

 

Despite the darkness that had filled the sky, Alyssa still saw the rustic scenery surrounding her. Trees made up forests, and hills sloped. Sheep, cattle, and horses meandered on the farms. Fields and meadows spread up to several acres.

Alex and Alyssa passed a few towns before they turned onto a street called Delphinius Street, which led them to Gemini Road. Each house had a large yard with trees; some even had gates.

Alex pulled into a house without a gate, but trees blocked some of the home’s view. The house light revealed what the building looked like. It had light-green trims with a porch and balcony. The garage stood next to the house.

“Welcome to your new home, Alyssa.” Alex turned off the car.

Alyssa hopped out and took her bags. During the ride, the moving-van people had called Alex and had said that everything had already arrived. Alex had also called his neighbor a half hour ago to tell her that she could go home since he’d arrive in time for his dog.

Approaching the front door, Alyssa heard barking. Alex unlocked the door, opened it, and turned on the lights. A yellow Labrador retriever trotted toward him, panting. Then it sniffed Alyssa, and she petted.

“What’s your dog’s name?” asked Alyssa.

“Scooter,” answered Alex.

Scooter ran into the kitchen.

“So, Alyssa, do you want a tour of the house, or are you too tired?”

“I’m exhausted.”

“That’s fine. I’ll give you a tour tomorrow.”

“Okay. Hey, when do I start school?”

“The end of this month. Not tomorrow but next Monday.”

Alyssa nodded.

“Would you like me to carry your suitcase to your new room?”

“Sure.”

“It actually used to be the guest room. But now I moved everything downstairs.”

Alyssa giggled, thinking about how Kathleen and Donald had done the exact thing. She carried her backpack and purse while Alex took her suitcase. She then grabbed everything else she owned and went to her room. Her bed, dresser, and everything else in the moving truck had come. The bed leaned against the wall on her right side, but the dresser and desk stood in opposite places.

Alyssa shrugged. “Hey, when did you move everything from this room downstairs?”

“Shortly before coming to Hailey’s grandparents’ house,” said Alex. “All right, sweetheart, I’m going to go do some work. You can just relax and unpack tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

Alex left and shut the door.

Then a swish sounded. Mathias had arrived. “Hello.”

“Hi, Mathias,” said Alyssa. “Is everything you told me about in the bag?”

“Uh huh. Hey, can you lock the door so that in case someone comes, they don’t see me?”

Alyssa nodded and did so.

Mathias pulled out an old shoebox and a duct tape roll. He took out a small dome with a silver lump in the center. “This is a warning dome. When nothing dangerous is going on, blue air will spread inside. But when something dangerous is coming, the light will be bright orange.”

“Okay.”

Mathias reached into his bag and brought out what looked like a glow stick that kids sometimes used at dance parties. “This is a magic light stick. It turns danger away when it approaches your house.”

“How?”

“It blocks out any evil sorcerers or creatures like a shield.”

“So they’ll be unable to come into my house?”

“Yep. But it only works on what I mention. It won’t work on ordinary people or dark magic from wands or potions.”

Alyssa nodded.

“Keep these things safe and hidden from other people. Do not show them to anyone except whoever you’re living with, unless there’s dark magic going on.”

Alyssa nodded as Mathias handed her the objects. The dome turned blue, and she smiled.

“Put them away now.”

Alyssa placed them in the shoebox and shut it with tape. Mathias then disappeared.

Alyssa put the box in her closet, behind some old stuff, and closed it. Hopefully, the next six or more months would stay free of danger and dark wizardry.
