Alex was glad to see that Carly was feeling better, also glad that Gina and Kushina were able to help them as well as they had. Although now that he thought of the two females, he hoped that nothing would happen to them.

Gina had the security system set up just in case they were attacked.

Kushina had helped set up the security system by adding seals that would warn her if anyone was about to come into the surrounding area. She hoped that Eve's friend had been healed.

" Thank you again Kushina for your help. We better get some rest. " Gina said.

"It was a pleasure, especially since I got to meet your friends," Kushina responded and nodded, knowing that they needed the rest.

" I'm glad you could meet them. I feel bad for being so secretive to Eve. Maybe I'll ask her if she wants to become a trainer. " Gina said.

Kushina nodded at the idea, having a feeling that Eve would like that.

" See you in the morning. Wake me up if anything intersting happens. " Gina said.

Kushina nodded, saying she would.

(timeskip?)

( sure. )

A week had passed since capturing Salem and healing Carly. As of right now, both Carly and Max were out buying groceries as Alex was reading a book that he grabbed from his bag.

"How are you able to keep everything in there without it bulging out?" Eve finally asked as Alex explained the spell that Nita and Kit used in layman terms, basically allowing the place to be put into an empty area of air that could only be retrieved by the user since that's how the spell worked. He also explained that Kit's "Air Pocket" was his pocket while Nita kept around a zipped up piece of solidified air.

" That sounds interesting." Simon said as he was cleaning up the room. He had to keep busy or he would go crazy.

"If you think that's interesting, ask Neets about her bracelet," Kit piped up adding his two cents into the conversation.

" What does the bracelet do?" Simon asked.

Nita blushed lightly and explained what her bracelet did, allowing her to quickly use some of her many spells. She also explained that it was hard to make and required the permission of a Senior Wizard first before she could even attempt creating the spell. She didn't want to tell anyone the real reason why she created the bracelet, feeling it a little too personal for her.

(Quick Version of personal info: Nita's mother was dying in book 6 A Wizard Alone and took training to use a "Kernel" which is the entity's central unit. change that and you can change things overall. Of course she had to first get training, which is why she needed to craft the bracelet)

" Sounds intersting. " Simon replied. He hoped Carly and Max would be here soon.


( Thanks for the info. )

(no problem. Although I gave you the wrong book. It's actually book 5 A Wizard's Dilemma not book 6)

"Honestly Max, I'm fine," Carly replied to her friend a few minutes later as they entered the same room that Simon and Alex were in.

" Are you sure?" Max asked concerned. She didn't want her friend to be hurt like that again.

"Positive," Carly responded. She was glad that her friend was concerned about her health, but it was starting to get a little on the annoying side.

Max nodded. She hoped she wasn't annoying Carly too much.

Alex withheld a small chuckle from issuing forth, knowing that Max was only being concerned for her friend. Once Carly sat down, he asked the others what they were going to do now.

"Sir, we are still unable to locate Salem Bolt," one of the unnamed minions of the main scientists said after being asked for a status report. After seeing the note that he wrote, the top five scientists issued him as MIA and to be found as soon as possible.

Eve knocked on Salem's door hoping he was alright. She knew that the others were slowly trusting him, but she had from the start.

Salem woke up to Eve's knocking. "Come in," he said.

" Hey. How are you doing?" Eve asked in a concerned tone.

"Good. I was just tired, that's all," Salem responded. "What's wrong?" He asked, noticing the concern in her voice.
