\t"Gwen? It's Me, Cassy...I just wanted to thank you and Kel for everything you guys did \tfor me. And—I'm just so grateful that I'm outta that place! And on top of it all, I found out I'm preggers!" Cassy practically crowed over the phone, sounding truly happy to be home.

\t"Oh yeah, know whatcha mean.." Gwen grinned into the phone.
\t"Um, can I call you back after Mike's gone?" Cassy asked hesitantly.
\t"Anytime, Cassandra. you know that." Gwen admonished gently.
\t"Thanks, C-YA!" Just then Gwen heard Kel and I were deciding who would drive us to work.
\t"No problem, really…I can drive us Rick."
\t"I know, Kel. It's just a guy thing."
Gwen held up her paws. "Hold it, you two. Why not just flip a coin?" She smiled, holding up a fifty-cent piece. Kel and I looked at each other.
\t"Call it!" Gwen sent the coin rapidly spinning towards the ceiling.
\t"Heads." I grinned.
"Tails!" Kel called, swishing her tail seductively as Gwen snatched the coin out of the air slapping it to the back of her paw...and showing it off "Tails, Kel's driving."
\t"Best two out of three?" I asked hopefully.
\t"Males!" Gwen snorted then chuckled at my exaggerated crestfallen look.
\t"Okay, okay. She can drive." I relented, tossing her the keys to my Prowler.
\t"Coolness!" Kel exclaimed, snatching the keys from the air.
\t"That was Cassandra on the phone, I briefed her on what we were planning and she said \tMike should be okay with it." Gwen announced. “Just a heads up, when you speak with \thim tonight, love." Then she took me in a very passionate embrace. Breaking the kiss a few moments later, I just stood and blinked a moment "Glad you’re driving tonight Kel, whew."
Gwen then took the vixen in her arms, gazing into her eyes.
\t"You've done a great job with Cassandra. I want you to know, I'm proud of you, Amanda." she said, hugging her apprentice, who sighed in the embrace.
\t"Have a good evening at work, you two."
As we walked to the garage, Kel said, "I've got my car here, ya know?"
\t"Yeah, I just thought you'd like to take the Prowler for a spin, it is fun to drive, ya know." I said with a knowing wink as I held the door for her.

Gwen went into the den to research Matter Transition, similar to the way she manifested Kel's spell book. The key seemed to be removing the essence of the projectile from her subtle bodies, allowing it to be exorcised from her physical one. Simple in theory, but further research and consultation would determine how feasible it would be in practice. For anything was possible through the use of magic. However, the practicality of the application depended upon the practitioner, and the need at hand.
