Michael Hex lead me into a small room that was packed with small rectangular wooden boxes from floor to ceiling. The spell casters had been described as lame and boring, which I guess they were but they were very passionate about their segment
"Do you feel anything?" He asked me, hesitantly. I could hear Mr. Lang writing behind me
"Hummm..." I breathed in, closing my eyes "no." I exhaled opening them and turning to Michael
"Nothing?" He asked his eyebrows high in question
"Nothing!" I confirmed,
"Let's move it along Mike!" Mr. Lang said taking notes on my reactions
"Okay chose a random box that stands out to you." Mike said so I scanned the room and spotted a dark wood box with vines engraved around the sides, like an old grave. I took it down and took out the wand. We walked out and were faced with the rest of the spell casters.
"Right, now summon the powers that you were using yesterday and pour it into the wand. Think of what you want to happen!" I did what he asked, and ended up simply radiating shadows. Then the earth started shaking and I dropped the wand and the rumbling and shadows carried on, Mr. Lang shared a glance with Michael.

They put me through all sorts of practices and none of them worked. At the end I got a zero in Spell Casting. Everyone gave me kudos for trying, but we all knew I had no powers in this segment
"Hey man, I'm sorry." I said, fist bumped the Spell Caster captain who had fixed me up yesterday
"It's really not your fault." His voice was slightly Indian, matching his skin colour which was a dark tan "the truth is, there are less and less spell casters at Morrowgan. Their all going to Hogwarts!" The phrase went right over my head but I went with it anyways.
"But don't beat up yourself up about it, mike!" I nudged his arm and he smiled at me, but it didn't quite reach his huge brown eyes
"I'm so scared that we'll be cut at the end of this year." I furrowed my brows
"Cut?" I asked He looked at me, not smiling this time
"Yeah, if a segments doesn't get enough new members it gets cut. The kids are sent home and the segment doesn't exists anymore." He looked back at his shoes
"Oh gods!" I was shocked. They just sent these kids back into the normal world?
"I know right, happened a couple of years ago. There used to be a segment that contained what the students called the Monsters, they were really called the Shifters , they could completely change how they looked or what kind of creature they were. Some could turn only onto one type of creature, other could shift and form anyway they wanted to. Only their imagination was their limit."
"And they just sent them back to their normal schools!?" I was outraged
"Most of them, yeah. But some, with more than one ten in their tests, got to choose to stay and join that segment."
"Like who?" I asked.
"Anna Hare, for instance. But the most well known two that stayed are Geoffrey Parker and Glenda the Good!"
"Glenda who?"
"You know, Glen Bell! We all call her Glenda the Good" as his words took effect I became more intrigued.
"Ge and Glen? Really?" Mike nodded, then looked at his watch and got up from the front steps that we'd been sitting on and made excuses to head off. What had those two been hiding from me?

I headed to the library and as it was only two pm everyone was still at training meaning I got time to read up about the late Shifters segment. It had been exactly what Mike had said. But even after some research and confirmation of Glen and Ge being Shifters, I failed to see how they fit into the category. I decided to avoid them for the rest of the evening to get my head straight. I went to bed early in order to avoid Ge. It didn't work. He marched into the room and straddled my stomach.
"What's going on?" He tried kissing me but I turned my head. That's when he got angry. He grabbed my wrists and as I struggled under his grasp and he kept trying to kiss me, I started yelling but he got in my head and made me ridged. But there was always a part, that was resisting his control over me.
