Selena pov
I hear voices from a distance and try to open my eyes, adjusting my eyes to the light I start to look around where I am.
Seeing I'm laying on a couch in a living room I listen for the voices and hear Emma's voice talking. Tossing the quilt off me I place my feet on the ground and walk over to where I heard her talk.
Finding her in a kitchen with a man and stirring in a pot I hear in her voice how excited she is.
When she hears me enter the room she turns around and has the biggest smile on her lips.
"oh! You are awake! How do you feel" she says with overexcitement in her voice and I don't get what has made her this excited?
"I'm perfectly fine and feel strong!" I say to her when she starts to bounce on her feet. I can't help but smile at the sight.
"YES!" she shouts
"what has made you this happy?" I have to ask her.
"you know what! They know a potion here that can help restore your energy and strength when you have used up too much. They use it themselves! And they have a lot of other options I want to learn" she says and starts to drag me over to where the man is staying by the stove. He has a big smile on his face. He looks friendly and I guess he is a wizard himself.
"thank you! I'm Selena" I say and offer him my hand, he takes it and instantly feels his strong energy when our hands meet. Whatever kind of wizard he is he got some powers.
"you're welcome! And I'm Michael" he says and I keep his hand in mine for a bit longer. Feeling his powers reaching out to mine a shiver coursed through my body.
"you're gifted I have to say! But all of your gifts haven't manifested yet" he says and his eyes become white for a moment. I don't dare to take my hand away from his and keep standing in the same place.
I see his eyes become normal again and he looks at me with a concerned look on his face.
"Trust your gifts when you need them, don't be afraid of what you don't understand. The gift will help you" he says and I have a lot of questions I want to ask him. At the same time, I dread what he would say.
From the way, his eyes glanced over I know he can see some of the future just like Emma's eyes do sometimes.
That he can see other people's gifts are obvious.
Taking my hand from his while I keep eye contact with him.
"is there something else I should know!" I ask him. He looks at me for a moment more before he answers.
"No! Just take my words with you and whatever happens, trust your gifts" he says and it has me even more troubled.
Giving him a nod I turn my head and look over to Emma.
"how long have I been out and where are Jessie and Zoey?" I ask her.
She turns her head and looks at the clock on the wall behind her.
"you have been out almost one hour and they went out to scout around the village for any trace!" she says I'm not surprised they would be out and checking. Just hoping they haven't wandered off further away when they are just the two of them.
"alright I will go and look for them. Stay here with Sari and let me know if you want to go home!" I say and turn around to go out and search.
