Kay paused her reading when she heard Trish speak up, "you're not a freak Trish. You're an incredible young kid who is wise beyond her years" she told her truthfully, looking at her. "when I was your age, I thought the same thing about myself. I thought I was a freak of nature, I was lost and trying to compute my whole life had turned upside down and reset. My birth mother died when I was only 8 years old and by the time I was 9, my father walked out on me. Leaving me to fend for myself in our home until Sam figured out what happened. She told her parents and they took me in and adopted me, before they decided it was better if we all moved out of London and fly back to Seattle. But through that grief of losing both my birth parents, my phoenix side was starting to bloom. The nightmares made Fee summon our wings to wrap round me in comfort. I began hearing her voice in my head, making me think I was going crazy, Sam's parents put me into therapy because I was finding myself having sleepwalked miles from home some days, all because my subconscious mind was trying to ignite my phoenix bloodline...."

"so I get what you're going through Trish. But believe me, you are anything but a freak. You are incredible and far more smart than I was at your age. A girl who I know Josh is incredibly proud of every single day" she explained to her, lifting Trish's head up with her index finger and thumb and gave her a reassuring smile. "you got this kiddo" she smiled.


Chas nodded, happy that Serena agreed to keep her own truth a secret from who they were heading to see. "good. The less this guy learns about you the better. You need to keep the upper hand and advantage with him, just as you do with anyone who has links to the downworld." he replied to her. Josh too got into the cab when Chas and Serena were talking and waited for them both to be done, then looked out the window when Chas did eventually start driving into town and round the backstreets in particular.
