Lightning Tells the Big Secret

Lightning sighed, feeling a bit upset that Aylin was dancing around the subject. She turned away from Aylin and towards Birdy who was still at the door. She moved a little closer to her and calmly stated, "You're a werewolf. That's what that bite is: a werewolf bite. If you look closely at it you'll notice it glows a bit. More so when its close to the full moon."

Li pulled up her knee length plaid skirt just a bit, revealing a bite similar to Birdy's. She glanced back at Aylin, while still talking to Birdy, to see her reaction.
"I'm one too."
She then turned back towards Aylin with a glint in her eyes and said, "And Professor, I'm sure you called me. Just not in the way you're thinking..."


Where Birdy Acts a Tad Unusual

Birdy stepped away from the door.
"Okay, I am going to stop completely what I'm thinking and just ask you, what?!"
She didn't usually pitch fits, even at home; her younger sister, "The Wookie", did that for them. She stopped and thought for a moment, 'Yes, I suppose I can handle that sort of idea. So much for non-mysterious Birdy, eh? She'll just have to run along and be happy wherever she may be...'


Aliana's Call for Help

Aliana hopped off her broom, and headed towards the area where the teachers were. Her cat hopped off and ran upstairs to the Golden Pheonix common room. The girl did not stop. When she reached her destination, she spotted a teacher standing nearby.
"Professor," she said, "I need to talk to you."


Raven's Call

"Help me!!!"
When Aliana returned to the castle, he knew that he had bad luck. But what could he do? He could just continue fighting with that horrible fire crab. And then he remembered the right charm - AQUA DE VITA - and the fire crab returned to the dark forest.

He took his broom, his bags, and the nice baby unicorn that he got for Aylin's birthday. Then he got angry again - WHY? - because that stupid fire crab burned all his new clothes. What was he to do?

He though about it. And thought and thought. Then he decided to transform the burning
clothes to all those new clothes you can buy in that muggle store, near L.A. -
What was the name? Oh, yes... the place was RODEO DRIVE. Then, riding his broom, he returned to the castle with all the new things and with Aylin's present.


The Secret

Aylin knew it. She didn't seem surprised by Li's words. And the bite - she's seen many before.

"So I suppose you figured it out yourself, Li, hmm? Which means you've already been that once? Am I right, Li?" Aylin sighed this time. These were the things she fought to avoid but she couldn't. And the proof was standing in front of her.

Birdy was scared. Unlike Li... And Adara - well, Adara took a few steps backwards. "But I am not one, right? I am not special in that way, am I?" - her voice trembled.
"No... you are not like that." Aylin replied. She felt Li's gaze again. She was trying to enter her mind somehow. Or at least that's what Aylin thought.
"For God's sake, what are you, Professor??!" - Li cried.
"What," Birdy queried.
"You don't feel it, Birdy??"
"No, Li..."
