Timespell Excerpt: Julia

The teacher went on. Julia tried to stay awake, but it was like the woman
spoke in a hypnotic voice on purpose. She could practically hear
her saying, “You’re getting sleepy … very, very sleepy.”

“Julia Corona,” Mrs. Ramirez snapped. Julia straightened
again, forcing her eyes wide open. “Name a victim of the Reign
of Terror. Now.”

“Right.” Crap. Mrs. Ramirez really had it in for her today.
She flipped back a page in her textbook. “A victim,” she repeated.
“There were so very, very many. Sad times …,” she trailed off.

Mrs. Ramirez crossed her arms.

Julia chewed on her lip, scanning a paragraph about the
September Massacres. The mark on her arm grew warm and she
frowned.

The page in her history book went blank.

She blinked. An involuntary sound escaped her throat as the
blank page began filling in. Word after word, image after image,
shifting and changing until the page looked nothing like it had
before. A moment ago it had talked about survivors—Pauline de
Tourzel and her mother—and the next moment it talked about
their untimely deaths.

“We’re waiting.”

She flipped the page, wondering if being sleepy had made her
hallucinate. There was no mistaking the warmth flowing from the
mark on her arm. Her heart pounded as she watched another page
rearrange itself, entire paragraphs disappearing.

She slammed the book shut. Mrs. Ramirez narrowed her eyes.

Julia swallowed. “I—want to remember without looking.”
What was going on? History was changing, and shutting her book
wouldn’t stop whatever was happening in the past.
