what to look for. The Paras can at least be protected. We are used to this sort of crap. So much for thinking this place is any different.”
     
    “Guys, chill. Director Mills had no idea they were doing this. Her first words were to shut it down. When they wouldn’t she had me zap them. I think a lot of it was the old director. You both know how much he hated Para’s and me.”
     
    “She’s probably going to yell at me for telling others about it though. I’ll take all the blame. They really need me. I doubt they will expel me over this. What worries me is some overzealous idiot like that sub-director, Richard Jonson, doing it again while we are away.”
     
    “Wait, that was really his name? Dick Jonson is his actual name?” My Unicorn was now upside down laughing uncontrollably.
     
    “Why is that funny?” Cat shrugged her shoulders, and we both looked at Chuck. He was smirking and soon joined Fergus in laughter. Men.
     
    “Can you make it so cameras don’t work in here?” Cat looked anxious too.
     
    “I can try. I don’t have a shield spell handy so it might be dangerous. The various Council Mages have been teaching me. Let me meditate on it for a moment.”
     
    I sat on my bed cross legged and considered the problem. I can cast temporary shield spells that block all communication or intrusion. Mine are finite though. I would need energy and strength to give it structure. For the basic framework I thought I might be able to use the internal electrical system and the wooden studs. This would be one of my first off-the-cuff spells in years. Even though I was planning what I was going to do, there was no spell to work with.
     
    “OK, I think I have a clue here. There is no spell for this in my book so I have to wing it.”
     
    “Oh, just kill me now. Please don’t make me into a squirrel!” Fergus was now moaning.
     
    “Fergus, if you won’t lend me your support, just go hide in your barn.” He scuttled off to his little red house with a Mooo! preceding him as he went inside.
     
    “As I was saying. I will cast a circle in the center of the room. If you two are in it with me, you should be safe. Or you can leave the room.”
     
    The two looked at each other. “We trust you Aggy. We will stay in here with you if that’s OK?”
     
    “I love you guys.” I stepped over to my desk and grabbed a few spell components and a small goddess statue.
     
    They each gave me a hug and sat at my feet in the center of the room. I quickly called the quarters asking the four elements for their permission and protection from harm. In my mind I visualized a circle forming around the three of us. I called upon the goddess Freya to bless and protect us in upcoming battles. In my mind I traced the structure I wanted and used the power system coupled with sunlight energy to extend the spells life. I opened my eyes and received a shock to my system.
     
    My magic was visibly penetrating the walls and floor. I could see the formula and symbols of my magic as it swirled about changing the physical structures of the walls. I looked down at my two friends. They had very large eyes and Chuck whimpered once. They could see what I was doing!
     
    Sensing that it was time to speak my words of power I threw up both hands and forced the magic in the room to pour into the walls.
     
    I spoke.
     
    “Skjald-borg!”
     
    There was a bright flash of light that blinded all of us for a moment.
     
    “By Jewel’s pointy horn, I’m not purple!” Fergus burst out of his home and began doing some elaborate dance on my desk.
     
    “Did it work?”
     
    I looked down at Cat and smiled. “I don’t know. It was pretty cool though. I know you could see it.”
     
    “Agatha, I knew you were powerful but wow! Father has a wizard that works for the Pack. His spells are nothing like That! He doesn’t have a tenth the power that you do.”
     
    “Uh, thanks? Chuck can you check the walls? They should be able to take at least a
