“So how was it that you remembered me? The pit is supposed to make everyone forget.” Jade asked, laying backwards.
“I don’t know." Penelope shrugged, thinking back to that night. "Some witches and I were out in that field the night you disappeared, just fucking around. A spell backfired and broke my arm. We didn’t want to get in trouble, so we left for five minutes to get a vial of blood from the werewolf bite cures, and when we got back, we saw you one moment and you were gone the next. I assume I remember because I saw you vanish.”
“Did the rest of the witches you were with see me?”
“They did. But they didn’t remember you moments after. I thought I was losing my mind.” Penelope sighed and leaned back. “And then Hope started running around the school talking about a forgotten person.”
“Sounds to me like you seeing me disappear wasn’t what made you disappear.” Jade lifted her head to look at the other girl.
Penelope scoffed. “Do you have a better theory?”
Jade imitated her scoff, arching an eyebrow. “Well maybe Hope’s miracle blood in your system?” 
“Huh.”
“Huh.”
