A fire bolt flew through the air but Aira ducked and stuck her tongue out at her best friend. "You're gonna have to do better than that if you wanna best me!" she shouted.
Her best friend, of course, didn't fall for the taunt and instead sent another fire bolt toward Aira. She expertly twisted out of the way in time.
Suddenly, her friend and the fire bolts from her friend's magic disappeared. It happened a lot, Aira noted.
Her parents who were watching her, worried. But how could they tell her that her best friend had died and that she was hallucinating?
