Risha was pissed off at her. Sterling had been ditching school more and more and Risha couldn't come -- she didn't want to lose her academic scholarships or something like that. Sterling didn't care. She wanted to learn how to channel, and the only place she knew she could do that was at Kalisti. So that's where she went. But Nox had been an asshat. He'd contacted her parents through actual mail, sent them a proposable about learning to channel, and keeping her grades up. It was bullshit really.
She could sneak off to the club and learn, but she had to maintain classes online and keep up her grades. Turnes out that was the easy part. Channeling wasn't. It was hard. And Juls didn't know much more than she did, but Sterling kept at it.
While he was gone, she started looking out for the twins that Nox had brought to the club a couple of times. They'd gotten her number from Nox's hacker friend and Sterling spent many days hanging out with them, doing school work. They liked doing work. I guess when you didn't go to school it might be. Sterling hated it, but she helped them out.
And they had so much freedom, Sterling enjoyed spending time with them at the church they currently called home. There were a bunch of people there. Sterling tried to ignore the smell. It didn't bother the twins.
Today they were playing a rather rousing game of hide and seek in the Church. Kenzie was it. Morgan insisted she knew the best hiding places and dragged Sterling after her. "Come on, she's gonna be done in a minute. She always cheats."
Sterling laughed. "Says the girl who counts by twos."
Morgan blushed, but pulled Sterling down and into a hole which they both had to crawl through. They still weren't hiding when Kenzie called out "Ready or not! Here I come!
