A Very Charmed One

Talking About Family

          A lot has happened in the past 2 and a half years, I’ve learned that I’m a witch right after my mother died in front of me, in my arms. My father had walked out on me soon after than my grandmother died in front of me as well and saw the “Angel of Death” take her right in front of me and I couldn’t even do anything about it. On top of all that, I found out that I am ken to these most powerful witches in history next to me, and I’ve never heard or seen them in my life.

          Leo, my grams white lighter, says they are the most powerful sister witches of all time. But the way my mother and grams say I’m more powerful than any witch come to man, that has powers. Even with this necklace that my mother gave me, it helps me with my powers, also protects me from harm and keeps me close to my mother. I’ve never thought I would be what I am, but it’s in my blood, its who I am what my family is. Generation after generation after generation and so forth.

          But as I grow stronger each day, learn what I can by myself and occasionally Leo shows up and checks up on me. He says I’m his new charge now since grams passed away. I told him I wanted to meet the sister witches, my cousins. But he won’t let me see them or take me to them, just yet. He says I’m not ready to meet them.

          One day I was going through the book of shadows and while looking through all the spells, I ran across a page, “To Call a Lost Witch”. I needed these ingredients to be able to cast the spell. A pinch of rosemary, a sprig of cypress, and a yarrow root. I went down to the kitchen and grabbed those 3 things in the cabinet, where all the witch ingredients were held at. Once I had grabbed what I need I went back up to the attic grabbed the mortar and pestle.

          I put the mortar and pestle by the book put a pinch of rosemary, a sprig of cypress, and a yarrow root. And said the spell at the same time.

“Power of the witches rise

Course unseen across the skies

Come to us who call you near

Come to us and settle here.”

          I poked my finger with a needle and let it drop into the mortar than said this chant.

“Blood to blood, I summon thee

Blood to blood, return to me.”

          A puff of smoke hit after the chant and the drop of blood. I waited for a little bit to see if anything had happened. But nothing happened I grinded my teeth together getting a little mad about everything. I close the book shut and looked at the symbol of the “Triquetra” for a moment, tracing it with my finger then out of nowhere, I started seeing 4 sisters standing in a room. Not just any type of room, an attic just like mine. They were standing in front of me, in my house, my attic. Then I was back looking what was in front of me, the book of shadows. I shook my head and backed away from the book.

“What was that.” I said out loud.

          I grabbed the mortar and pestle and went downstairs to the kitchen to clean it up. While I was cleaning up, I had another flashback, a vision of some sorts. Like a premonition. It was me in some ally killing demons all of kind when one of them had grabbed my necklace and I had blown him up at the same time and when I had done that his knife-like hand went into my stomach. Then out of nowhere the sisters were showing up again. Then the vision was over.

“No!” I said out loud. ‘So, I’m willing to die to meet the sisters. That is just crazy.’ I thought in my head.

          After having that vison, I had gone to work on some potion making. I had made some blowing potion (about 6 of those) just in case my blowing up power didn’t want to work right, made some tell the truth potion (about 4 of those), made some light harming potion (about 20 of those), and made some strong Vanquishing potion (about 10 of those). It had token me about 5 hours to make everything. About 5 trips to china town to get all the Ingredients that I need for all the potions.

After I had put them into their bottles, I had gone upstairs to put them up into the potion chest, I had holding them. With one left in my hand, Leo had orbed in and scared the hell out of me, making me drop the bottle and when I did drop it, it exploded sent me flying back against the wall falling to the ground.

“Heather!” Leo said running over to me.

“I’m fine.” I said as I got up.

Leo helped me up off the floor over to the couch in the corner of the attic. “What was that?” he asked me.

“It was a potion to match my explosion power or at least double or triple my power.” I told him as I fixed myself.

“Why?” he asked.

“Because, I had a premonition of a demon attacking a woman and I saved her but as I was saving her this demon had stuck his claws or knife-like hands went into me and I died. None of my powers were stopping him really, they were doing so little damage to him that was it.”

“Wait you had a premonition?” he acted shocked.

“Yes, it wasn’t even the first one either.” I told him.

“Wait, how many have you had already?”

“Three of them; 1.) was of four women standing in front of me up here in the attic, 2.) I was demon hunting, helping a woman when the demon that killed me, and 3.) was while I was dying when I saw those four women again, saving me, I guess.”

“Four women?” he asked.

“Yea, four beautiful women that I have ever seen.”

“Hmmm,” he hummed, scratching his head. “Do you know when this is gonna happen?” he asked me.

“No not yet?” I told him. “I have a few job interviews tomorrow, so I’ll keep an eye out for this woman and this demon.”

“Okay, do your job right and stay safe, Heather.” Leo told me.

          Nothing really much had happened other than I had started looking for work so I can have some money, because the money I had all saved up, my mothers’ money and grams’ money was starting to get low from buying all these ingredients and things I needed for the house. But the next day, I had two interviews with some nice jobs; waitress at Red Lobster was one and House Keeping at the San Francisco Marriott was another one.

          While at each interview, I was having good feelings about getting the job, like it was weird I was starting to hear people thoughts/feelings about me. I was feeling a little weird about it, but I got over it. It was probably one of my powers. But just hearing them say; ‘oh my she is so great’, ‘she has pretty eyes’, ‘such a great smile’, and so on.

          After both interviews I was walking to a café that was down the street from the hotel, when I was starting to feel like I was being hurt, feeling all weird until I heard someone screaming.

          I ran to where the screaming was coming from and saw a demon was standing over a woman about to throw a fireball at her until I ran over to them and yelled.

“Stop! Get away from her.” I yelled as I went to blow him up. But just sent him flying. As he went flying over a few feet away, I went to help her up. “Are you okay?” I asked her.

“Yes, thank you so much.” She said as I helped her up. “Who was that guy? How did you do that to him?” she asked me.

“He’s a demon and I’m a witch.” I told her as he got up and went to throw another fireball at us.

I pushed her out of the way and froze the fireball and sent the fireball back at him with the wave of my arm. He dodged the fireball. Before he could do anything, I went back over to the woman.

“Get out of here, now!” I told her as I went to push her to run.

“What about you?” she asked.

“I’ll be okay here. Just run!” I yelled at her.

          She ran right at the same time as the demon pulled me throwing me back, hitting a brick wall. I was down for a moment, until he started walking back towards me. I got up before he got to me and started throwing my hands at him trying to blow him up. It was barley doing anything to him until I remembered the potion bottles that were in my bag. I went to reached for one in my bag right when knifes came out of nowhere out his hand. I went to throw the potion at him right when he reached for my necklace and the knife-like hand went into my stomach. He blew up and I end up falling down on the ground, started bleeding out with the knife-like hands in me.

          I couldn’t yell out to anyone. Not even Leo, my white lighter. He was the only family I had left other than my so called 4 cousins I have left.

          Right when I thought I was seeing the white light; I saw 4 women coming out of no where in the most pretty blue light. They ran to me, calling out to me.

“Mama your going to be okay.” One of the girls said.

“Paige grab her hand; we’ll take her back to the house.” Another girl said.

“Okay, y’all grab a part, so I can orb us back to the manor.” The one that was called Paige said.

          One moment I was laying on the cold hard street then the next I was laying something soft and warm. Still fading out though. I was getting colder and colder. I could see my mother and grams in the pretty white light. I was started to reach out to them until they pushed me back and I was laying down on a sofa, hearing Leo’s voice calling for me to come back.
