Chapter 16 Summary

Lara reveals the reason why she’s so mean to Amari: she blames Quinton for Maria’s disappearance. According to Lara, Quinton guilted Maria into working with him on a top-secret project. Dylan reassures Amari, explaining the sacredness of the partnership bond and that Maria would not have been persuaded to do anything she didn’t want to do. Dylan and Amari bond over the shared experience of missing their siblings. Dylan relates to Amari’s feelings of isolation; although he and Lara are twins, they are nothing alike and aren’t close. However, when Lara excludes Amari from the Junior Agent trainee group at lunch, Dylan doesn’t defend her, wounding Amari. Magiciangirl18 contacts Amari again to arrange a meeting for the following night.

Chapter 17 Summary

Dylan makes up for his previous behavior by sitting with Amari during the next day’s Supernatural Immersion class. As a blow to Amari, Lara needles the guest speaker, a boogeyperson, by pointing out that magicians are technically the boogeypeople’s “masters,” since they created them. The boogeyperson bows to Amari and begs her not to include the boogeypeople in the magicians’ plot, startling Amari. Amari meets magiciangirl18 that night at the Vanderbilt Hotel.
