Magic, Lost Memories Book 2 of the Magic Series

We go into an abandoned room. When I flick on the lights I realize it's an actual questioning like area with a window staring into a cell. So there's a prison here too. Huh. I make it so no one can eavesdrop and turn to Stella.

"What do you want?" Stella asks leaning against the wall. I mirror her position as my leg start screaming more. My energy is very quickly evaporating. I bite my lip hard as I try to control my face so it shows nothing.

"The last line. What happened when Selina died? Has there been a surplus of demons sense? Did it start with some big battle?"

"Uh.... You sure you want those questions answered?" she asks.

"Yes, Stella, we need to know about this. I need to know. I can't but help feel that the second part of the prophecy has more to it than just what is happening now. It may still not be fulfilled in your time period." Her eyes widen.

"But.... In that case...." she stares past me and at something else thoughts racing through her mind. "Yes, of course I will help. They need help," she says, muttering the last part as if arguing with herself. "Selina.... She died at the same time as.... Everyone else.... I was the only survivor of that battle.... Everyone.... Everyone else was killed. Anna, Alex, Amithisia...." She takes a shaky breath and turns away from me staring into the cell. The first time I can truly say I've seen actual emotion from her. "Everyone.... She, Selina, was able to destroy Satan, permanently I believe, I haven't seen a demon sense then."

"Could the way you shut down the portals open it to demons?" I ask.

"No, I have sensors in many worlds and in the portals themselves. If anything had happened, I would know."

"Was there anything after that?"

"No, nothing that would involve demons or darkness...."

"So, it still hasn't happened yet," I mutter.

"I really don't like prophecies."

"Well, at least you know what may happen."

"It's.... It's more complicated than that...." she says.

"What?"

"It's nothing for you to worry about.... But it may be in everyone's best interest for me to get back to my time as soon as possible.... For more reasons than my own opinions," she looks at me. "I don't want to get back into this, but I will if I have to, and the only way I can know is if I'm there."

I node completely understanding. "You can go whenever you feel like it as long as the portals are acting properly," I tell her.

"Thank you."

"Are you sure you can't hear anything?" Ashla asks. We decided to try and figure out what Stella and Lydia are talking about. Vader's gone somewhere else.

"Not sense the last time you asked," I reply before quickly backing up from the door as it opens.

"Extendable ears work better," Lydia says walking past us.

"Translation?" Force Ghost Anakin asks.

"It's a better way to listen in on conversations, but I don't know if I have any," I say.

"Speaking of which, I borrowed a pair," Stella says shoving a pair of extendable ears into my hands as she passes. "I've forgotten how handy Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes where."

"Um...." I say not knowing exactly how to react.

"So, she could have been listening on anything," Ashla asks as they continue down the hall.

"Basically.... It's really annoying when that stuff get in the wrong people's hands," I say. "You should know some of the stuff that they've come up with."

"How do they work?"

"Well, it's like this," I say showing her the points.
