The Sphere Of The Space

ii. Fire – “She was putting in a fire now, and he could no longer see her face.”

Through this first incident, Jeanette’s mother, Rose Mary, encouragingly said, “Good for you. You‘ve got to get right back into the saddle. You can’t live in fear of something as basic as fire” (Walls 9). Soon then, Walls became “fascinated with it” (Walls 9) as she passed her finger through a candle flame, slowing her finger with each pass, watching the way it seemed to cut the flame in half.

The flame had been extinguished, the feel of it snuffed out between his fingers nowhere near comparable to the heat scorching through his veins. His Grace had never been like this, had never scoured every nerve inside his vessel as it grew, it had always been warm, been comforting even in the most desperate of times and yet now. Why? Gabriel let his fingers brush over the heated wax, letting it conform to his fingertips before he pulled them back and watched it quickly dry. Pale nubs sat top his index and middle finger, twisting them slowly back and forth as he studied it before her voice caught him off guard. The wax was easily discarded, pulled off and set back at the base of the candle as he turned, almost uneasy at the fact that he hadn’t realized she woken up sooner.

He turned and glared at her. Fire burned in his eyes. “You will hold your tongue, woman. This disrespect will not be tolerated.” Sana stood her ground. Her face calm and relaxed. Her purple eyes faded into a light pink violet.

Axel’s eyebrows furrowed before he took in the picture she was looking at. A grin tugged at his lips.

“Isn’t it exciting!” Her eyes sparkled and she couldn’t stand still, which caused some very

I watched as her eyes lit up at my offer, nearly bouncing up and down. She was excited and couldn’t seem to stop smiling at me.

“She learned it from me.” He smiled, procuring a shiny, silver flask. The glare that’s waiting for him when he gets down off the chair was historic, some of her best work, and made him snort a

Then Myra pulled her hand back, and shoved it forward, shooting the fire into the cave, lighting it all up.

“Well then I hope she looks just like you.” He said and wrapped his arms around. Leaning down he kissed Esmeralda soundly, before giving a whoop of joy.

Before either teen could say another word, Theodora drew her hand back, preparing to throw an ever-growing ball of fire that she held in her hand at Vella. Before she could, Shay pulled out his spoon and chucked it at Theodora’s head. The ball of fire vanished and Theodora looked at him for a moment, stunned.

“I’m going to take that as a compliment.” Addison leaned over and pecked Megan on the lips.

Flames roared their defiance to the skies, punching fists of red and orange into the air, snarling defiantly as gentle raindrops sizzled into vapour in the fire’s insatiable maw. Sinuous orange and yellow tongues licked at every opening, leaving charred blackened wood in their wake. Fingers of flame waved manically behind windows until the glass shattered from these demonic ministrations. She stood on the gravel drive with the other two women and William, gazing helplessly at the vicious scene of destruction playing out before them.
