Chapter 31: The Charm

"The cupboard," she murmured. "There was a woman who pulled me in. She was. . . I could not see her face, was too scared."

"It's okay, Zarna, just relax," said Tej. "We'll talk about this later."

"And girls," began Ray. "Don't go anywhere alone. We'll continue with the mission once everything is back to normal. Until then, I declare the mission is on pause mode."

"I'll have to leave," said Tej and adjusted his tie. "Have a meeting."

"I'll leave too," said Ray. "Advika, you coming?" he said in a flat tone.

"Ah," said Advika. "You go ahead. I have to run errands and pick some medicines on the way back home."

"You mean, Tej's home right?" quizzed Ray.

"Yes," said Advika and nodded her head. "Aunt will be up by now."

"Zarna," Tej turned to look at her. "Take care and don't go looking for the woman now."

Ray kept his hand on Tej's shoulder and looked at Zarna. "Take care, Zarna," he said.

Zarna nodded her head and smiled.

Rutuja glanced at him and then at the Antillas. She sat down on the ground and kept a finger in their way. The Antillas took another route, avoiding any contact with her finger.

"Only the Antillas and other creatures can," answered Indra. "Not the people."

"I don't understand," said Rishi and looked to and fro from Indra to the people and back to Indra.

"That is how the charm works," said Dai Ma as she took the support of the stick to get to her feet. "You, the one who uses it, the master decides how it works."

"Is it a specific spell?" asked Daksh.

"Yes," replied Dai Ma. "The spell needs to be earned. You have to solve the riddle given in the book 'The Elements'."
