Kyulkyu walked into the back of the shop as she looked at everyone. "The place is locked up so we can start if you guys haven't already." She said as seh grabbed some plate from a counter just placing them on the table in the back where everyone was sitting. She grabbed some chopsticks and another plate as she placing some more rice cakes on the plate as she closed the fridge just carrying the cup or chopsticks and plate of rice cakes. She sat down next to Yeseul as she crossed her arms. "My parents are at a friends house for dinner so no one should come into the cafe." She added 

"Alright, so have you gotten ahold of that orbing thing?" Hojung asked as he looked 

"Do you mean the move things with my mind or the other one?" Kyulkyu asked as she picked up a rice cake. 

"The one where you can move from spot to spot." Hojung said 

"Oh no not really. I have been practicing in my bedroom like going from here to there. Like from the cafe to my bedroom and back." She said as she looked at them. "My landsing are kind of bad though. I bruised my shoulder landing on a table the other night." She said 

"Well why not try orbing to our places from now on to practice. That would be better than just from your bedroom to the cafe." Wootak said as he shoved a rice cake in his mouth. 

"Hey piggy, you have four of those. Slow down. "Yeseul looked to Kyulkyu. "You could have done worse than just bruised your shoulder. I'll look at it in a little bit." Yeseul said 

"Did you get rid of those arrows?" Dongyun looked at Wootak 

"What arrows?" Jun asked as he poured himself some more tea. 

"We were attacked by darklighters. I gave the arrows to Wootak to get rid of." Dongyun said "Plus I think that Iljoo is the problem there. The darklighters started hanging around because he showed up." Dongyun said as he crossed his arms. 

"Do you think that they are after Kyulkyu? She is one of those angel things." Ruiho said as he looked at them.

"They said that they wanted to the male. Pretty sure, she is not male." Dongyun said as he looked at them. "Besides how does anyone know that Kyulkyu is a whitelight?" He added 

"I couldn't find anything about him, okay? We will just deal with them when we have to." Hojung said as she looked at him. "Plus why are you so concerned about one worker at the cafe?" She asked 

"I am not. I am just worried about one darklighters can kill the only person that can heal us." Dongyun said as he looked at them. 

"So I am just first aid?" Kyulkyu glared at them. 

"Well.." Ruiho said as Hojung punched his shoulder. "I mean no! Your life is important too!" He added as Kyulkyu rolled her eyes. "Anyway how did the forest go? You guys took forever to come to meeting point so I could drive you guys home." He said 

"Jun's phone died and mine couldn't get service. We got lost and had to have some fairy friends help us to you." Younghee said

"Sorry that my phone died out in a forest." Jun mumbled as he ate an rice cake. "Any way did you take down that page with our numbers on it? Pretty everyone thought it was faek and only called Ruiho because he well was famous." Jun said as he looked at them. 

"Hey, I still am famous. You never know that I might make another song or something or model, start acting." Ruiho said as he looked at them. "But yes she did, she resubmited iwth a phone number that is universal between us all. It like an hot line that will send us an email and then we can fliter through them." Ruiho said as he looked at them. 

"That is better than our phones going foo all hours of the night." Younghee said as Hojung crossed her arms. 

"It was a good idea at the time." Hojung looked at them. "Anyway we should practice tonight and Kyulkyu, you need to start practicing orbing so that you can help us when we need you." Hojung said "Oribing can save the day." She said 

"Yeah, okay. I will just orb to the attic. I won't like orb in yrou bedroom or something in the middle of the night." She said as she looked at them. 

"Also you can orb to one of us if you are in trouble or bring someone with you." Yeseul said 

"Yeah, I think that I should get down orbing myself before I try to orb others." She looked at them as she watched as Hojung placed a file infront of her "You already have a new case?" She asked 

"No, I made training schedules and excercises we all can do to work our powers." Hojung said as she passed the stapled sheet to each person. "As seeing I have to do with my life now, I made this for everyone." Hojung said as she smiled. 

"Yeah like any of us can do anything meaningful wiht our lives now." Ruiho said as Hojung kicked him under the table. "Bi-, that hurt." Ruiho grunted as he watched Hojung flick her wrist freezing him. 

"You just can't freeze him!" Kyulkyu reached over the table just shaking Ruiho unfreezing him. "She froze you!" Kyulkyu nodded 

"What the hell?!" Ruiho looked at Hojung. 

"You're annoying." Hojung answered 

"Him or me?" Kyulkyu asked "Because I have a long list of what I can call you!" Kyulkyu snapped 

Wootak reached out and punched Kyulkyu as she shoved him. "Sorry! It was her!" Wootak said from the ground. 

"See what've you done!" Ruiho said as Hojung stood up 

"I will show you what I can do!" Hojung raised her arms up as there was a loud bang. 

Everyone turned to Jun holding a baking sheet. "God, we aren't in highschool anymore!" He yelled "There is out there that can really kill us so stop acting like babies!" He set down the baking sheet as he marched back to his seat. "And I don't want to hear anything about me being a scaredy cat." He added "Now about these training schedules, I am not about to go and freeze and unfreeze water being thrown at me. But, I do think I can do this." Jun tossed a rice cake as he blew out ice just making it covered in ice. "Then Kyulkyu." He looked at it on the ground. 

"Frozen rice cake." Kyulkyu held out her hand as Jun took it from her 

Younghee watched it as it was thrown at her face as she raised up her arms just rising up out of her seat as Yeseul moved it back at Jun with her mind. Younghe waved her hand as she made it fly through the air as Hojung froze it in middle air then Ruiho destoryed it with a stream of fire. "Cool. Can someone pull me down? I still can't figure out how to get back down." Younghee said as she took Jun's hand as he pulled her to sit down again. 

"Dongyun can make stuff that isn't reall appear." Kyulkyu said 

"Hey, I told you not to say anything until we knew for sure." Dongyun glared at her 

"You can cast illusions." Hojung said as she nodded to him. "That will come in handy. Well I guess that we should all go home then." She said as she got up. 

"You guys have to help us clean up." Dongyun grabbed the tea pots. "Dump any tea in your cup sin the sink and just leave the cups. We will clean them in the morning." Dongyun said 

"Can I take the rice cakes home? My mom will like them." Wootak said 

"More you like them." Yeseul looked at him as she watched Kyulkyu hand him a box. She grabbed her chair as she carried it back outside. She watched as Iljoo was sitting outside on the steps of the cafe. She glared as she marched to the door and unlocked it just marching to the front. All of them since highschool had always been protecting Kyulkyu as she just let people run right over her and Yeseul wouldn't deny that she had done it many times herself. "What are you doing out here?" She asked 

He looked up as he stood up. "I never saw Kyulkyu leave and uhm there were some guys earlier that bother the cafe - I just wanted to make sure that she got home okay." He said "What are you all doing here so late?" He looked at the guys carrying the other chairs back to their spots. 

"We always do this if there are left over food. We get together and hang out." Yeseul said "Well you can leave now because Ruiho will take Kyulkyu home. They are neighbors." Yeseul said with a nod. "He is the built red head." She motioned to Ruiho messing around Hojung just holding her phone up in the air as she was jumpping around for it. 

"Yeah and he seems like a great guy." Iljoo said 

"Oh that is normal. They torment eachother on the daily." Yeseul opened the door to the cafe. "Okay, well scatter off." Yeseul told him as she locked the door back just looking at the others. "He was just sitting on the steps and waiting to see if you got home okay." She said 

They watched as Iljoo walked off. Younghee was in the back of the cafe throwing away their trash into one of the cans as she hurried outside to the trashcans just seeing Iljoo walk by and then orb away as Younghee quickly threw the trash away as she locked the back door just running into the front part as everyone was getting ready to leave. "Guys, Guys!!!" She waved her arms as she looked at them. 

"What did you run into a racoon in the dumpster?" Kyulkyu asked "That is okay, they don't cause trouble." She said 

"Uhm no! I saw that guy orb!" Younghee said 

"Who?" Ruiho asked 

"I was throwing away the trash and he walked by then he orbed! What was his name? Yeseul was just talking to him!" Younghee said as she snapped

"Iljoo?" Kyulkyu asked "How is that possible?" She asked 

"I ing told you all!" Dongyun blurted as he looked at them. "I told you that he was trouble!" He crossed his arms. "Now we have to kill him." Dongyun shrugged as he nodded 

"You can't kill a whitelighter." Hojung said "Plus if he is one then he is a good guy." She added 

"Why did you go straight to kill him, Dongyun?" Wootak looked at him as he raised his eyebrow. 

"Is that not what we do?" Dongyun asked 

"Evil stuff." Wootak nodded 

"I think he is just jealous he isnt' the center of attention from the female customers now." Kyulkyu nodded 

"Oh yeah because that is it. Right on the nail head." Ruiho shook his head. "Anyway if this guy is an whitelighter then he might need our help or something. Didn't you two say darklighters attacked the cafe? Maybe they were after him." Ruiho said as he looked at them. "You two need to talk to him or catch him doing something whitelighter-y." Ruiho said 

"Or we could just call him." Hojung looked at them. "If he is watching us or protecting us as new witches then he can hear our call like Kyulkyu can hear us too once she gets that part down. They can hear the calls of their charges." Hojung said as she rubbed her hands together "Iljoo! We know that you are out there!" Hojung said as they looked around. "Well I guess not." Hojung shrugged 

"Finally you guys realized who I am." Iljoo walked through the kitchen door "I figured you guys would connect the dotes when I lured darklighters here. Anyway I need your help, one of my charages is missing." He said 

"Why did you apply to work here?" Kyulkyu asked 

"Oh well, my resume is true. I am a traditional rice cake maker that was my job when I died. I live around here now and needs money to live like anyone one else, plus I was assigned to you all so I need to reason to get close to you." Iljoo smiled 

"Don't you mean us?" Dongyun asked 

"Yes, that is what I said. Anyway about my other charge. She has not come home and her parents are extrenely worried. They have not called the police because they are witches as well adn know somehting supernatural took her that is why they tried to call that post you guys put up but they said some angry man cussed them out." Iljoo said 

Ruiho clicked his tonuge. "That was me. Someone put that up wihtout my consent so after thousands of calls, I got a little mean. I am sorry." Ruiho said 

"It is okay. I last sensed her at her university and then she fell off the map." Iljoo sadi as he handed them some papers. "I will keep looking but I know you guys can find her. Oh and her parents gave me this for you all to scry with." Iljoo handed them a bracelet. 

"Okay. We can try." Hojung said as she looked at him. "But what if she is already dead?" She asked 

"Well then you can save whoever else that they have. Her parents will understand." Iljoo said as he looked at them. "I have to get going. Another charge is calling if you guys needs me then just yell for me." Iljoo orbed out. 

"Well i will be at home scrying if anyone wants to come over." Hojung said as she watched Kyulkyu unlock the front door as they started to walk out. 

"Well maybe we can have slumber party like old time?" Younghee asked as she looked at them. "Just get your stuff and head to Hojung's. I'll bring some stuff home for snacks and Kyulkyu you can try to orb to Hojung's. Great plan, lets go." Younghee walked as she clapped. Younghee lived the closest to the cafe as she headed home. She unlocked the front door just closing the front door and going to her room. She made a sleepover bag just grabbing a tote bag to put snacks in as she grabbed her stuff just heading out of the door just locking it back. She started down the street just getting Hojung's first. 

•••

Kyulkyu sighed as she held her stuff in her hands just in her pjas with her hair into two twin buns just standing in the middle of her rooms just focusing. She flet herself orb just landing in the attic and crashing landing on someting. "Awesome, i made it!" She said as she felt someone patting her back. She got up as Ruiho fixed his hair. "Oh my gosh, I am sorry! I told you guys my landings ! And why am I the only one in pjs?!" She grabbed her stuff just hugging her stuffed cat to her chest as she sat down. 

"It is okay. It didn't hurt much." Ruiho said "The others are taking turns changing. Plus I am in my pjas sweats and a tank top. You look cute though. You would never think that you'd left highschool." Ruiho poked one of her hair buns. 

"I brought alcohol." Dongyun walked in just looking at the two. "Didn't you have those in high school?" He asked Kyulkyu. 

"Yes, I did. I lost them so I bought a new pair online. Oh, here is that map you wanted." Kyulkyu looked back at Hojung tieing a crystal to some string. "It covers from here to Seoul." She added as she looked back to Dongyun. "Did you bring anything other than booze?" She asked 

"You are an adult. You can drink some soju." Dongyun cracked up a bottle as he handed it to Ruiho. 

"There is some juice downstairs." Hojung opened up the map as she looked at Ruiho and Dongyun as Kyulkyu left. "We are here to get wasted." She said as she wrapped the bracelet around the crystal just swinging it around above the maps. 

Younghee walked in just pushing Kyulkyu's stuff nex to Dongyun's as she placed her things down then placed Jun's next to Ruiho. "Jun will be here in a few seconds. I stopped by his place and he is locking the doors and getting his dad to bed." She sat down as she pointed to Kyulkyu's new spot as she walked in confused. "You look cute but you always had the cutest pjs. I was envious because when were younger since your mom would make you clothes and pjs." Younghee told Kyulkyu. 

"Yeah, some of you made fun of me." Kyulkyu sipped on her juice 

"Sue me, I was a stupid teenage boy." Ruiho shook his head. "So where is Yeseul and Wootak?" He asked 

"I am here!" Wootak walked in ryan lion themed pjs with his hair pushed up with a ryan lion ear headband that was used to clean your face. "Yeseul texted me and said he would be here in a few minutes." He added as he pulled out a box of cookies. 

"I brought stuff to makes drinks." Jun walked in as he looked at Wootak. "You look like a middle school boy." Jun walked to his spot next to Younghee as he caught a bottle of soju from Dongyun. 

"Are you guys going to help me?" Hojung looked at them as she held up some crystals. 

"Yeah, we will." Kyulkyu grabbed Dongyun's arm as she pulled him with her. "Here." Kyulkyu handed it to him. 

"I will do this if you drink some of this." Dongyun set down his soju bottle. 

"This is not highschool, Yun." Kyulkyu said as she followed Hojung's movements. She rolled her eyes as she took a swing of his bottle as she thew the crystal at him. "Some of you can look through the book for demon ideas." Kyulkyu sat infront a map next to Dongyun. 

"Write down all the hits that you guys get on note pags then we can check them out tomorrow." Hojung said as she looked at the others. "You guys can also go practice your powers." She said as she watched them get up and leave Kyulkyu, Dongyun, and her in the attic by themselves. 

"If you guys needs us to just call me!" Kyulkyu called to them as she looked at Hojung. "My crystal keeps going different directions. I think our crystals are interfering with each other." She said as she stoped as Dongyun's crystal landed on a spot on the map. "I got Busan but then again this could be any evil." He said as Hojung tossed him a stick note strip pad just marking it down. 

"Hey, I got something." Hojung said as she looked att the map of univerity. "I got a map from the university website and prnted it out. It landed in the dorms. Lets go." Hojung said as she grabbed her jacket and put it on. 

"You want to orb all of us?" Kyulkyu said as she looked at them. She watched as the both nodded at her. "Fine." She grabbed their hands as she closed her eyes. She opened them back up as she looked around to see that they were in an empty dorm lounge. "Yes, we made it." Kyulkyu said as she looked around. "Where is Hojung?" She asked 

"Over here!" Hojung said as she stood up from behind the couch. "I let go. I thought we had landed." She said as she walked over. "It was over here." Hojung said as she started to walk. Hojung walked up to the door as she tried to open the door just finding it locked. 

"Door lock." Kyulkyu said as she handed it to Hojung. "We will be your look out." She said as Hojung walked in. She looked over to Dongyun. "Do you hear anything that is helpful?" She asked 

Dongyun listened around as he glared at some college boys walking by. "She's not interested." Dongyun snapped as the two hurried off. "Other than college nerds, no." Dongyun cracked the door open. "Hojung - making any progress?" He asked as he didn't get answer. 

"Can you hear her?" Kyulkyu asked as she was pulling into the room. "Where did she go?" Kyulkyu asked as she looked around. 

"I do not know and I do not have a good feeling about this. Lets orb back." He grabbed her arm as they orbed back to the attic. "Grab a crystal and something of Hojung's. I am going to look in the book for something to find her a spell or some ." Dongyun said 

"Shouldn't we tell the others?" She asked as she started out of the attic. 

"No! Where are you going?" He asked 

"To grab something out of her room." Kyulkyu walked out then came back with a shirt just wrapping it around her hand as she moved the crystal. "We ar so screwed." Kyulkyu said 

"Shut up!" Dongyun hissed as Ruiho walked in. 

"Where is Hojung?" He asked as he looked at them. "I was sent to check on you guys. wootak got a ping of emotion." Ruiho said as he looked at them. 

"Hojung went to the store for more drinks." Dongyun said as he stood next to Kyulkyu. "Kyulkyu is scrying with a shirt we foudn in teh girl's dorm." He said as he watched Kyulkyu nodded her head as she kept the crstyal going. 

"Okay." Ruiho said as he walked out as he made his way back to the barn. "They said that Hojung went to the store." He said "I am pretty they are lieing but I can't tell." He said as he looked at them. "Pretty sure they were also scrying with one of Hojung's shirts." Ruiho crossed his arms as he looked at them. 

"They lost Hojung? How do you lose a person?" Younghee asked as she dodged some ice just landing back on her feet. "I am getting the hand of this levitating thing." She added "Come on lets go check on them upstairs." She said as she started to follow Ruiho out back upstairs. "Okay, you two we know that you are lieing." She said as she looked at Dongyun and Kyulkyu over a bowl. 

Dongyun held up his finger as the other stopped in their tracks. "Powers of the witches rise, course unseen across the skies, come to us who call you near, come to us and settle here, blood to blood, I summon thee, Blood to blood, return to me." Dongyun read with Kyulkyu as he dropped in the last ingredigent just getting a burst of smoke as saw the white-gold lights as a girl appeared in the middle of the attic. 

"She is not Hojung!" Ruiho said as he stompped in the room. "Wait, who are you?" He asked as she blinked at them.

"My name is Bora (OC). I am not too sure who Hojung is but there was girl yelling about where I was. The things that took me and my friend are using us for some game or something." Bora said as she looked at them. "I was trying to channel another witch or something. I do not any active powers but I can basic witch powers." She nodded 

"Channeling is a power." Younghee said as she pushed Dongyun and Kyulkyu over. "Come over here and look with me to find the demons then we can either write a vanquishing spell or potoin." She motioned Bora over as she looked at the others. "You guys just scry or something." She said

"What are you doing?" Wootak looked at Kyulkyu who was sitting cross legged on the table just breathing in then out. 

"I am trying to hear Hojung's call or sense her." Kyulkyu said as she nodded 

•••

Hojung rubbing her hands together as she flicked her hands forward just bending a few of the bars that she was behind. She sighed as she paced around just flicking her hands again as she shook her head. "I can do this. I blew up a demon the other day. I can blow up some old iron bars." Hojung said as she snapped her wrists as she then kicked the lock as it opened up. She hurried to the other cell to see another girl as Hojung opened up her cell just dashing over to her. "Hi. I am Hojung." She said as she looked at her. "Iljoo sent us to find you." She added 

"Who?" The girl asked "Oh yeah that person my parents keep saying is their nehpew or something." She rolled her eyes. "Those people out there keeping saying am I wtich! I am not." She said "Oh right my name is Joori (OC)." She walked out of the cell with Hojung. 

"Well you are and he is a whiteligher. They are like guiding angels to witches." Hojung said as she peered around a corner. "And yes, I am a wtich." She added as she twisted her wrist just blowing up the demon that was coming towards them. "My friends are searching for us right now." Hojung kept walking just holding Joori's wrist. She started to run as she remebered something. "Kyulkyu! Can you hear me?!" She hissed a little loudly as she heard foot steps. "Okay this way." She told Joori as they started to run. Hojung stopped as they hid behind a wall. "Kyulkyu!" She snapped as she looked at Joori

"Can your friends even hear us down here?" Joori asked as she sighed. 

"Oh I hope so." She answered as she pulled out her phone as it had no servie. "Great." Hojung said as she looked around the corner just sighing to herself. "This way." Hojung said as she walked with Joori as they came to a door. She opened it up as she let Joori go first as she closed the door softly behind her. "Oh great, a window. Come on." She said as she picked up a chiair just climbing on top. "Watch the door for me." Hojung said as she opened up the window and made sure it was safe enough to go. Hojung got down as she motioned for Joori to climb quickly. She leaned over window as Joori was waiting for her as she dropped down and fell on her . "Ouch." Hojung got up as she rubbed her . "Okay, lets go." She said as she jogged with Joori as they got far enough from the place. "Okay, Kyulkyu! You can hear me now?" She called out as she crossed her arms. 

•••

Kyulkyu shot her eyes opened as she jumpped out. "I got a call from Hojung. Come on, come on." Kyulkyu said as she grabbed Dongyun's hand as she looked at the others. "We will be back with Hojung." She said as she orbbed away just landing next to Dongyun as they stumbled a little just looking around. "Hojung?" She asked as she heard movement. She watched as Hojung and Joori came out from some bushes. 

"Finally!" Hojung marched over. "This is Joori. She is our missing witch. We've learned she can control plants." Hojung said as she looked at her. "Lets get out of here. Hang on tight, Joori." Hojung said as Kyulkyu orbed them back. 

When they were back in the attic, Ruiho was the first one over to Hojung. "You little creature, come here." He said as he flicked Hojung. "Never do that again. We were all worried." He said as he crossed his arms as he quickly side hugged then move off to the side. "Anyway who is the tag along?" He asked 

"She isn't a tag along. She is our innocent, Joori. Yeseul, you should check her out. I think the first aid kit is on that shelf." Kyulkyu crossed her arms. She looked at Dongyun who was downing a bottle of soju. "What are you doing?" She asked 

"I am drinking. This is a lot. You have me bouncing from place to place - it is not fun!" Dongyun sighed. "I feel like my organs are ready to be thrown up." He added as he sat down. 

Yeseul came back into the room. "The girls are okay and I sent them home cabs." She said as she looked at ther others. "Hojung, where were you?" She asked as she looked at the other. 

"It was a building that was a like a castle then we escape through an open room and window. Then we ran like hell through a forest where Kyulkyu and Dongyun came to get us. I blew up a lot of demons in the process, but I think there were more girls but I couldn't tell from my own sheer panic and fear." Hojung said as she looked at them. "It is going to be impossible to get back in due to our escape. We will have to research more and figure out what they are trying to do." She nodded at them. 

"Bora said that they took them to play a game." Wootak said as he looked at them. "Maybe they are putting them up against each other like cafe fighting or something?" He suggested as he looking through some books. 

"By the sounds of a castle it sounds more like galdaitors and crap like that." Jun said as he munching on some cookies. "Like we learned in school." Jun added as he looked at them. 

"Perfect, and demons get to watch this on tv?" Hojung asked as she pulled a leaf out of her hair. "I'll be back. I am going to go take a shower. You guys can go set up sleep arrangments in the living room like always." Hojung walked off. 

"I call the couch!" Jun grabbed his blanket as he ran off. 

"Whoa he can run besides running from evil." Ruiho said as he followed the others out. He looked at the others. "Same places like in highschool?" He asked 

"Yes, because Kyulkyu is the only one that never complained about Dongyun's sleeping habits." Younghee nodded 

"Whatever, I wasn't planning on staying the night." Dongyun said 

"It is the middle of the night. You shouldn't try to go home now. Here you can have my blanket." Kyulkyu said as she handed him the sailor moon comforter. "I usually end up kicking off my blanket anyway." Kyulkyu said as she laid down just turning off the lamp that was lighting up the living room. 

Hojung walked into the living room after her shower just carrying her blnaket and pillow just seeing her open spot next to Ruiho one one side then Younghee on the other. She looked at Dongyun covered up in a anime blanket and Kyulkyu snuggling her cat plushie. "She is way to nice that smartass." She marched back down to her hall cloest just grabbing a blanket then draping it over Kyulkyu. She looked at Dongyun just tossing and turning while he slept. Hojung watched Dongyun roll closer to Kyulkyu as she reached out just pushing him back to his spot as her hand glowed a faint gold color as Dongyun settled just as Hojung getnly backed away just laying down.
