"WHAT HAPPENED!!!!!!," shrieked Mary Lovinggale as Lillian carried an unconscious Clancy into the house.

"We were out riding in town and a snake appeared out of nowhere and startled Wani causing Clancy to lose her balance and fall unconscious," said Lillian with tears in her eyes.

"EMILLIA!!!!," shouted Mary Lovinggale.

There was a sound of footsteps running and in came Emillia through the open door asking "Yes Mrs.-" but stopped when her eyes fell on Lillian holding Clancy.

Her eyes widened in shock of Clancy covered in bruises and had a cut across the cheek that would need to be healed properly before it gets infected.

Clancy also had a broken arm and a broken rib but was white and pale as if death had claimed her.

"What happened?" Emillia asked as a copy of Mary Lovinggale's but with a concerned, soft, worried voice.

Quickly Lillian explained what she had told her mother to Emillia a second time but without adding the riding into town part cause Emillia had forbidden Clancy to go outside of the house toward town until she was 8.

Emillia took a calm deep breath in and said "We need to get a healer who might be one of our own servants, I will go and find one.

Quickly with a short, brisk nod from Mary Lovinggale, Emillia and Lillian headed off to look for the healer with Clancy, still unconcious in Lillian's arms.

How can one girl be so stupid as to let her little sister fall from a horse!!! thought Mary, This will be bad publicity if the crown prince hears about this, then we will all be doomed!!!

With a huff of frustration, Mary paced back and forth in her bedroom for a while until she decided to rehearse the spell to taking a Whitress's powers when she couldn't find the book that held it.

She turned over her bed, pulled her shelves out, threw all her books on the ground trying to find that book but it just wasn't there.

Where in the world is that book!?!?! Mary thought panicking.

She tried double checking but it wasn't there.

Little did she know that the book was already in the hands of the rebellion that had stolen her powers in the first place.

Sent there by her own two eldest daughters as soon as they found it hidden behind the bedpost and taken it to them and their leader.

Mary felt like everything was falling apart until she remembered that she wrote it down so she wouldn't need the book for her plan, the only thing she needed was that spell that was in the book.

After she had written it down to memorize it, she had placed it in the safe lock where she kept the paper for the spell, along with the money to pay for the house rental.

Mary went over to it and saw that it had been opened.

Chilled to the bone, Mary looked and saw that the money and paper for the spell was still there, but someone must've been interupted in working on hacking it and didn't get what they needed.

Thus reassured, Mary took the paper and began to rehearse from memory of the spell while the servant she yelled at earlier came in unnoticed and cleaned the room.

~~~

Haline was frustrated with herself.

So close! So close, I had come to stop Mary's plan from taking action!! Why did I just take the paper when I felt her coming?!?! she thought to herself while putting the mattress back in place and getting the sheets in order.

"I want this room perfectly clean and spotless by the time I get back!!" commanded Mrs. Lovinggale distractingly as she was so absorbed in memorizing the spell.

"Yes, Mrs. Lovinggale," Haline replied in her fake scared voice.

She went back to work of putting everything together and placing stuff in the right order while thinking One would think that maybe Mary would've at least cleaned the stuff behind herself as she did this.

Haline frowned at that knowing Mary was just to lazy to take on work very often.

Mary never even did work nor even thought about doing a lick of work at all and just sat on her butt trying to pay the bills while we just make sure that the house is clean without being paid enough, but the only reason we put up with her is because of Emillia.

The reason no one has left the place is cause of Emillia who was the true owner of this house but Mary commanded them to clean it like she was the true owner of the house when really she was a fake.

Haline shook her head and heard from Emillia's thoughts She's going to die!!! Who has the power to heal her!!!!

Quickly Haline said a few command words and the room made itself like it was before Mary had trashed while looking for the book.

Haline then ran toward the room of where they were trying to heal Clancy and saw that she was still bone white as ever.

"I think I can heal her," she said with determination as she looked in her cousins eyes.

~~~

Emillia has been trying for the past half hour to heal her with medicines and healing powers but nothing was working.

Frantically thinking, Emillia hoped that maybe one of the servants had mind reading abilities, she thought She going to die!!! Who has the power to heal her!!!!

She looked at Lilllian, when Emillia heard running footsteps stop behind them at the door and turned only to see the servant, that Mary Lovinggale had yelled earlier, standing at the doorway panting.

The servant looked at her with determination saying "I think I can heal her."

"You can?" Emillia asked.

The servant nodded and extended her hand toward Emillia saying "I'm Haline, the new servant around here that gotten a job two months after Mary came here."

"Oh right, your the one who tries to help the cook with the food," said Lillian smiling as Emillia shook hands with her and let go.

The servant/Haline smiled and asked "Are we going to focus on Clancy or are we going to socialize?"

"Oh right, right, let's go," said Emillia.

Quickly all three of them gathered around Clancy as she was sweating like crazy and was white as a bone a dog would have.

Haline raised her hands and something sparked on them before she brought them down onto Clancy's hurting rib side.

"No!! Stop!! What are doing?!?! You'll hurt-" shrieked Emillia but was interrupted when color began to form back into Clancy.

Soon she was back to normal again with her normal color and breathing perfectly well and out of unconciousness.

"You saved her," breathed Lillian.

Emillia hugged Haline as she stood back from Clancy with her work done and her magic fading back from Clancy into her.

Haline returned the embrace with a warm smile when Lillian said "There is something about that smile that reminds me of someone I know."

"Who," said Emillia as she pulled back from Haline's embrace and turned to look at Lillian.

"You, her smile reminds me of you," replied Lillian.

Shocked Emillia looked at Haline who was looking to and from Lillian to Emillia.

"Haline, are you related to me?" Emillia asked.

"Uhhhh," said Haline nervously.

"Are you?" Emillia asked again.

Haline looked down and nodded her head ashamed of herself of what she was admitting.

Emillia felt herself chilled to the bone of what conflict was uphending.
