Gateway to CelestaFrankie wanted to tell Peter everything. About the Qui and Celesta. About the invisible war and especially about her new ability to hear what people were thinking. The only thing that stopped her was the strange voice she could hear whispering inside him. Welcome to Celesta - the birthplace of every thought and feeling known to man. The way to Celesta is through the Qui - an ancient puzzle that must be kept safe from those that would use it for harm - kept safe from people like Peter.
"Peter wasn’t annoyed, he was shocked. When their hands met he had experienced the strangest sensation. The Unseen within him had been silenced completely. For once there was no voice scratching away in his mind. The silence was welcome even if it had only been for the split second their hands met. The Unseen had become an almost constant presence. He couldn’t escape it even though at times he was desperate to. His mother reminded him to listen to whatever the voice offered but Peter wasn’t willing to surrender just yet. It was back now, hissing and insistent. The silence, no matter how brief, left him hungry for more. He needed to feel it again and there was only one way to find out. Peter reached over, ignoring the voice that demanded he stay as far from Francesca as possible and pushed the soggy strand of hair back off her face. He was sure to let his hand linger for a moment longer than necessary and ran his finger down her cheek. His eyes closed the momenttheir skin connected as he enjoyed the brief respite."
