Rose was in the lead of her brother, and Hunter and Twitch. She told them to be carrying quite a bit of offerings for the ritual to work.

  No one was speaking to each other as they climbed the mountaintop. Shadow was looking around him, doing his best to avoid eye contact with his sister. Rose sighed to herself.

  Does he really miss his powers that bad? Well, he should know what had happened last time.......he knows better.

  As if hearing her, Shadow glared at her. Rose rolled her eyes.

  He'll get over it, she tells herself.

  Once they reached the destination, they set their things down, while Rose found a clear spot and made a huge circle made of salt. Shadow placed down his four crystals in every direction going North, South, East and West.

  Twitch and Hunter lay down the offerings of the seasonal flowers and twigs in the middle. Rose set down a single white candle and lit the fire. She bent down and whispered her blessings into its flame.

  She backed up and faced the North direction. Her brother stood opposite her, in the South direction, Twitch in the East, and Hunter in the West.

  And they began the ritual.
