Zoya didn't see the other two boys floating towards them until their feet landed on the ground, and even then it was only from the corner of her eye. Then, more surprisingly, a ball of fire materialized above them. Her first reaction was fear, and she clutched the boy she'd been talking to and pulled him back towards her. She had no idea what in the world was going on but her instinctive reaction was to keep the kids safe.
Then, baffling her even more, the woman that was with them seemed calm. The woman told the boys to be careful as if she were telling them all not to touch a cake that was still too hot to eat. She spoke in turns to Zoya and the kids, and her question rattled the brunette.
Before she could speak, the boy she held answered the question directed at him. His head shook, and she could feel his small shoulders shrug. "I...I don't know. I don't really know what happened."
His eyes remained fixed on the fiery globe floating in the air. His friends, equally mesmerized, stared at each of them in turn.
"Who are you?"
Finally finding her voice, Zoya let the words flow, "and yes, a few. Are you...are you doing this? Was it you all along?"
