Hello, anyone!

About time. Do you have any idea
how long it took to track you?

Please take me home.

Kyra! You’re all right.

Happy now?

I think my stomach just did a back flip.

It’ll pass. It’s always like that
the first few times you jump.

Where did she go?

Isn’t the important question,
what are we going to do about her?

Coming in!

Thought you might like
some choc-chip cookies, hot from the oven.

Dad, I can explain.

You don’t like my cooking?
I am getting better.

You won't break your teeth on these.

I have to go out for a few hours.
You be okay?

Fine, Dad.

He didn’t see you.

You shouldn’t be able to either.

And that’s the problem.
I think you should be banished.

Banished? What did you do to me?

We’re not exactly sure.

You resisted the mind-wipe,
so we have to banish you.

There must be something else you can do.

I suppose there is one other option.

What?

-Just relax.
-Why?

How do you do that?

Don’t worry.
You won’t have to get used to it.

I know this place.
My friend Peter buys comics here.

Professor Maxwell won’t be happy.

-Professor Maxwell?
-I'm sure you can talk him round.

I’m not doing it.

Let’s toss for it?

Yes, Lily.

How do you do that?

Each magical aura
has a subtle individual odor

that I’ve taught myself to detect.

Really?

Mirror.

Now, what can I do for you?

Well, um…
I have a hypothetical question.

What would you say if I told you,
hypothetically,

that Imogen and I
found a human who can do magic?

That’s quite a specific hypothetical.

It’s also impossible,
as humans can’t do magic.

Well, I’m pretty sure she’s human.

She?

So, she saw you both?

Clear as day.

Plus her fingers glow
and she can communicate with dogs.

I tried a mind-wipe, but it didn’t work.

Lily, you’re not qualified for that magic.

I know it was dangerous,
but it was all I could think of.

I say we banish her.

No. This is fascinating.

We should find out more.
What has she told you?

I am right here, you know.

Sorry.

Come this way.

This way where?

Don’t be afraid.

You want answers.
Hopefully I can give you some.

Sorry.

Wait!

How did you…

What is this place?

This is the Library of Magic.

But how can it be so…

big?

The size does take a bit of
getting used to. I got lost in here once.

It took me two days to find my way out.

Not now, Ladder.

-You talk to a ladder?
-If you don’t, Ladder sulks.

So, Kyra, is it?

Let’s see if we can get to the bottom
of this. Please, take a seat.

First question,
were either of your parents magical?

Are you kidding?

My stepdad’s a cop
and my mum was a phys ed teacher.

The most magical thing they ever did was
dressing up for my eighth birthday party.

Then how do you explain
your magical abilities?

Well…

-It was Imogen’s fault!
-Lily!

-She took a book from the Library.
-Borrowed! I borrowed a book!

And she came at me with that stick.
I just defended myself!

It got in the way.

I did not.

I saw a book hanging in midair,
so I touched it.

That was a serious misuse of magic.
What book was it?

The Theory and Practice of Conjuring.

An elementary text.
There’s nothing special about it.

So, can you help me?

First, I’d like to learn more about
your abilities and that may take a while.

- It’s best that you stay here.
- No way!

Kyra, you have no idea
what you’re capable of.

You could end up in trouble.

I… I’ll be fine.

I won’t say a word about this
and we can pretend it never happened.

Sound good?

You can’t leave without one of us.

Okay. I just did that.

Kyra?

Peter! You don’t know
how happy I am to see you.

You’ve been at Maxwell’s bookshop?
Doesn’t he have great stuff?

-Can we go, like now?
-Why?

Please!

-That was unexpected.
-What are you going to do about her?

I’m not entirely sure. A human
with magical powers is unprecedented.

What are you going to do about us?
Do you have to tell my dad what happened?

What’s to tell? The professor
hasn’t figured out what’s going on.

So, until he does, there’s no point
in saying anything, right?

But we’re still in super big trouble
though, aren’t we?

Removing books without permission.

Improper use of magic
that was seen by humans.

Attempting a mind-wipe.

We’re expelled. I knew it.

We did show initiative
in trying to solve the problem ourselves.

Very true. While I look into this further,
keep an eye on the girl.

No way! I don’t baby-sit humans.

I’ll do it. I’m better with people.

-Got to be good at something.
You’ll both do it.

Aisle 23, Ladder.

What do you know about that bookshop?

Duh. It sells books.

-It’s creepy.
-That’s totally part of its charm.

What’s up?

Kyra?

Listen. That bookshop, it's…

It’s not just a bookshop.

You walk through the back wall
and behind there’s…

There’s what?

What?

-What’s behind the back wall?
-Nothing.

There’s nothing behind the wall.
What are you talking about?

What are you looking at?

-Are you okay?
-I have to go.

Yeah, Dad.
The deliveries, I haven’t forgotten.

I’m on it.

Hey, Max.

My afternoon tea.
I’m looking forward to this.

-Busy day?
-You have no idea.

Your father is a virtuoso with pastry.

Can I help?

Just admiring the wall.

It came with the shop.
I like it because it holds the roof up.

Right. Enjoy.

Thanks a lot, Kyra.

What?

Okay.

Stop!

Kyra?

Help! What’s happening to me?

Is everything okay?
I heard a crash.

Fine, Dad.
I just… dropped something.

All good.

Okay.

- How do I stop this?
- Calm down. Fear makes it worse.

Just take some deep breaths.

Okay.

You shouldn’t have walked out today.
Professor Maxwell was only trying to help.

And he’ll have to teach you
how to control those fingers

before you do some real damage.

I hope he can.

I’m going to stay like this?

You’re kidding.

Well, I have been known to kid,
but not in this case.

Your condition is unprecedented.

And as much as I want to help you,
there’s no simple answer.

Why is this happening to me?

I feel for you, Kyra.

It must be a tremendous shock
to discover a hidden world all around you.

You got that right.

How long has this been going on?

It’s taken centuries to convince humans
that magic doesn’t exist.

Why would you do that? People love magic.

Long ago, humans and magical beings
lived side by side.

But as human civilization grew,
we were forced into the fringes.

Our numbers shrank…

and we had to retreat into the shadows
until we were forgotten.

What you’ve become threatens that.

-And we’re back to banishment.
-Give the girl a chance, Imogen.

You can’t tell anyone
about what you’ve seen.

Not your parents,
your brothers or your sisters.

My mother died.
It’s just me and my stepdad.

You want me to lie to him?

He’s a cop. He has a nose for lies.

Well then,
just don’t be fully truthful with him.

But you will try and fix me?

Get rid of this?

I'll do everything that I can.

But in the meantime,
you can learn to control your powers.

Class, today we have a visitor.

Kyra.

Hi.

-She’s human.
-Not exactly.

She’s part human, part fairy and part elf.

A tri-ling? How did that happen?

It’s not exactly clear.

Kyra, this is Ruksy.

And this is Darra. He’s Imogen’s brother.

Pleased to meet you, Kyra.
How long are you going to be here?

I’m not sure.

Not long. Just until Professor Maxwell
can turn her back into a human.

Ignore Imogen. She has the looks
of an elf, but the manners of a troll.

Kyra’s deciding on whether she’ll join us.

Kyra, please, take a seat.

Last time, we were discussing

the problem of how to solve height
in levitation spells.

There were two approaches.
Can anybody tell me what they were?

Control the speed
of the levitation.

Excellent. And the other?

Stop! Where did that come from?

Maybe it fell out of a plane.

No way!

Let’s go!

I’ve seen you before.
Do you ever go to Harvey’s?

All the time.
Best banana smoothies in the city.

Well, I prefer strawberry.

I won’t hold that against you.

So, how was your date last night?
Was it with the tree nymph?

Well, there’s something
you don’t see every day.

Could it be… Aisle 15 please, Ladder.

-What’s going on?
-This is a Random Magical Outbreak.

-Magic occurs randomly?
-That’s why it’s called magic.

Whenever one occurs, the Department of
Magical Intervention sends out an alert.

-The Department?
-Shh!

Can you see it?

It’s gone.

I thought I recognized it.

Behold, the Throne of Kai Kavus.

Him. Typical.

Perhaps you’d like to tell us
all about it, Darra.

Yeah, but maybe you should go ahead

just in case
he’s not the one I’m thinking of.

Kai Kavus was a Persian king
from the first millennium,

who built a flying throne so that
he could travel around his kingdom.

Yeah, that’s him.

The throne supposedly crashed in China,
but was never found.

Seems it's finally turned up.

-So let’s bring that sucker down.
-I beg your pardon?

The chair could be dangerous,
but now it’s only a Level One threat.

Darra’s correct.

It poses minimal risk to humans
and basic magic skills will contain it.

- Pretty sure we could handle that.
- I don’t think so.

You’re always saying
that the true test of our abilities

won’t be found in the library.

And that we need to learn
how to work together.

-Some of us more than others.
-Heh.

So, you listen when it suits you.

Why am I not surprised?

So you want a test?

You got it.

Seniors only, Ruksy.

-Professor…
-I’ll inform the Department.

Yes! So how do we deal with it?

First course of action
is to formulate a strategy.

Department protocols state
the primary concern is public safety.

-After that it’s containment and then…
-Race you.

Sorry, Ruksy.

-Slowpoke.
-I’ll beat you next time.

You can try.

There!

I got it.

Lily, I had it!

Really? Sorry.

Come on, guys. We need to get this done.

First, we need to stop it escaping
from the park.

Cast a confinement spell.

And let you claim the glory?
I don’t think so.

Aren’t we supposed
to be developing our teamwork?

I’ll start when you do.

When we catch it,
what are we going to put it in?

-How did you forget that?
-I can’t think of everything.

So, the DMI is kind of like
a magical police force?

It’s because of them we’ve been able
to stay hidden from humans for so long.

And Maxwell trains you
to work for this Department?

It’s what I’ve always dreamed of.

I’m the youngest student ever
to gain entrance to Maxwell’s school.

- Imogen?
- I need a containment vessel.

I think you’ll find this easier.

A teapot?

Have the chair fly directly over it
and it will be drawn inside.

But so will everything else
in the vicinity so stay well clear.

-Any other problems?
-No.

We’re totally good to go.

-Can I come and watch?
-This isn’t a spectator sport, Kyra.

We’re taking real risks
to keep you humans safe.

In that case, I’d like to help.

You? As if.

Stay here with the baby and let
the real magical people get on with it.

What are you doing?

-You never share an elf’s rip!
-I’m sorry.

You have no idea what you’re doing,
so stay out of the way!

The confinement spell's working.
Nothing magical can get out.

-We just have to get it into this.
-Really?

Maybe we need to think like the chair.

If we understand what it wants,
we can encourage it into the pot.

-Only a fairy would say that.
-It’s simple.

We need to bring it lower
so we can force it in.

Look out!

That was close.

Here it comes again.

-Did you see that?
-See what?

The flying chair.

Can you see anything else?

What’s better than a flying chair?

-We got to tell someone.
-You can’t!

Are you kidding? There could be a reward!

- Here it comes again.
- I got this.

Pull, Darra! You can do it!

How about some help?

Whoa!

Not like that!

Okay, thanks to me
taking an incredible risk,

we now know it’s tough.

-Nice work.
-Thanks.

Sorry.

You’re lucky I took the fight out of it.

-How do you live with yourself?
-That was amazing.

It was nothing, guys.
I didn’t think about it.

-I saw you needed help.
-No, we didn’t. I had it sorted.

Over here!

Time to go.

It was right over here,
a flying chair, honest.

How was Kyra able to control the chair
when you couldn’t?

I told you, I softened it up.

She was lucky.

Actually,
I’d say that you were the lucky ones.

And yes, Kyra was irresponsible
following you,

but she did solve the problem.

We just needed a bit more time.

What do you do
if you don’t have more time?

What if that had been a Level 3 threat?

If today has taught us anything,
it’s that you all need more training,

not just in the use of your powers,
but in the art of teamwork.

And as for you, Kyra,
what you did was reckless and dangerous.

You can say that again.

But she didn’t hesitate
to keep our secret…

and showed considerable bravery
in doing so.

It’s exactly the type of initiative
the DMI needs.

It just felt like the right thing to do.

It was.

It’s just a pity
that you have no interest in magic.

I didn’t say that.

Didn’t you say
you wanted me to fix you?

-Well…
-Remove your powers?

Put you back the way you were?

-Yes, but…
-And I’ll try.

Meanwhile, class, back to work.

Wait.

You’re right.

I should learn to control my powers.

- Don’t feel you have to agree.
- No.

Like you said,
I don’t know what I’m capable of.

-You’d need to attend class regularly.
-I still need to go to my normal school.

And that won’t be easy.
You’ll have to work hard.

Magic can be frustrating
to master properly.

All right, I understand.

I’m in.

I knew you’d want to stay.

And if she can’t cut it?

Well, I’m sure it won’t come to that,
will it, Kyra?

I won’t let you down, Professor.
