Slave or partner? Bond or shackles?

Dascha swore that she would never become a slave to a Witch, used for energy and reduced to the role of an animated battery. Zhanna never thought that she would have a Familiar since none of the Russian Witches seemed to have them. Now Dascha has found her Witch and Zhanna has found her Familiar. It would be better if either one of them knew what they were doing, but they trust in each other.

When Dascha has the chance to get some training, something that no Familiar that either of them knows has gotten, she reluctantly leaves her beloved Witch for a few days. Little does she know that she will come back with a very different view of what being a Familiar really is. And a whole lot of ways to make them the baddest partnership around!

The only question is simple. Can Dascha can survive the training?
