The atmosphere was heavy. Rain poured outside, and the sound of thunder echoed through the school’s empty halls. Pearl felt something was wrong—terribly wrong.
In the secret chamber beneath the library, Jax and Freya finally cornered Lina. Her eyes were sunken, her skin pale, but the bracelet on her wrist glowed unnaturally bright.

Freya (firmly):
“Lina, where did you get that bracelet? Tell us the truth.”

Lina (coldly):
“It was given to me... by fate.”

Jax (angry):
“That’s a lie. That bracelet doesn’t belong to you. You're not one of the chosen.”

Lina clenched her fist, the bracelet reacting violently, sending a red pulse through the air.

Suddenly, Pearl appeared, holding the book of the First Keeper. She opened it to a page marked in blood.

> “Only the True Heart may wear the Binding Bracelet. If stolen by another, the curse will infect the thief and all who trust her.”
Pearl (shocked):
“You’re not the Keeper. You’re the danger we’ve been trying to avoid.”

Lina staggered back, confused, angry—and scared.
Lina:
“Then why did it come to me? Why did it call out to me in the forest? I didn’t ask for this!”
But her words fell on deaf ears. Freya stepped forward, hand glowing with the symbol of the true Keeper.
Freya:
“You’re not meant to carry that power. And now… it may be too late.”

Suddenly, a loud crack of thunder—then silence.
Lina dropped to her knees, the bracelet burning against her skin. A shadow emerged behind her—dark, human-like… but twisted.

Shadow Voice (whispering):
“She wore what wasn’t hers… and now I live.”
The episode ends as Lina screams, her body consumed by a swirling dark light. The others watch, frozen, as she disappears into the shadow’s grip.
And then… silence.

Only the bracelet remains, crack
ed and humming with the remnants of her soul.
