Charmed Chapter 1 Being a witch has it's advantages. I'm not complaining. Having powers that can exceed human capacity can inflate your ego...well, I'm getting ahead of myself. Let me take you back to last week, when my cousin came to visit with my aunt and uncle. First of all, let me introduce myself. I'm Samantha, and I live in Salem in Massachusetts. You probably heard of it. Witch country... Anyway, about last week.... I had just graduated from Salem high school. I heard that my cousin Faith was coming to town with Uncle Richard and Aunt Beth. By the way, my whole family is consisted of either witches or warlocks. Faith is a quite obsessed witch. I believe in doing good, but she's just the opposite. She loves instilling harm on people for her own enjoyment. You've probably heard that a witch's favorite color is green. Well, it is my favorite color. But, I only use green in scrunchies and earrings. But Faith is kind of obsessed. She has green everything, and even her bird is green. Her bird's name is Aura, and it's a green parrot. I have a black cat named Cherry. Anyway, I was in my room playing with my Ouija board, and I heard a car pull up. Sure enough, it was Faith's green LuvBug. I saw Aunt Beth and Uncle Richard get out of the front, and Faith get out of the back. Faith was wearing green capri pants and a green and blue checked shirt. I was wearing blue jeans and a white t-shirt. I ran downstairs, actually I really didn't run, I kinda decided to slide the banister, but I got outside, with our chihauha killer, nipping at my heels. Faith came over and gave me a hug. "HEY!! what is that?" she said pointing at Killer. "That's our DOG, Killer." I replied. My mother had already given everyone hugs. "What are you wearing cousin?" She said staring me up and down. I really couldn't stand her. "it's called BLUE jeans. Try them sometime" I said with my perkiest most hypocritic smile. "Yeah, well, whatever. Hey! show me your room." she practically commanded me. I was a little hesitant in showing her my room. I had posters of the BSB's all over the place, and I knew that she didn't really like them all that much. I opened the door, and she threw all her stuff on my bed. Did she actually think she was gonna sleep there? You bet! My walls were a pale mint green, and I had a leafy green comforter. I went to organize something on my dresser, and I got this weird vibe. I turned around and she was actually licking one of my posters. I had to zap her away from there. She had slobbered all over AJ's face! "FAITH!" she stood up. She zapped me up to the ceiling. "What the hell did you zap me for?" she asked, her eyes turning a fiery red. "Look, Faith, geez, take it easy will you? You're licking my poster." She let me down from the ceiling, and I fell on my bed. "OWWWWWWW!!!!" I screeched. I had landed on my head. "Girls???" I heard aunt Beth calling from downstairs. "YEAH!?" yelled Faith. "Would you keep it down please?" Aunt Beth said. "Yeah sure!" replied my Oh so bitchy cousin. She just loved herself. She was standing in front of my mirror, with my brush combing her long black hair. "Faith, are you planning to sleep in here?" I said. She looked at me through the mirror. I could hardly stand that look she gave me so often. She finished brushing her hair, and parked herself on my bed. She patted it. "Umm, I think this'll do just fine." We ate dinner a few hours later. After dinner, me and Faith went back up to my room. "OH! you know that they're coming this summer right?" I asked. I was really excited I had gotten tickets for their summer tour concert that was in Boston. She smiled. �YUP! And that Oh so fine AJ. Aren't you happy that we're witches? we can make anything happen whenever and to whoever we want. It's great!" she laughed. "Faith, you went to school. You know we aren't supposed to use our powers to make people fall in love with eachother." I said, I knew otherwise. When Faith saw something she liked, she didn't stop until she got it. And that thing she wanted was AJ. I told Faith that I had to use the phone, and I went outside to where the stars hung over our house. I climbed up in my tree house, and found Cherry there. "Hey Black Cherry," I said. I picked her up. and she started purring. She was so cute. I sat in the tree house and wished good to AJ and Nick, Brian, Kevin and Howie. 'Please don't let anything bad happen to them as a result of Faith.' I wished harder and harder. I really knew the power that Faith had, and I didn't want her to hurt anyone. I guess Being a good witch has it's ups and downs. Cherry purred and purred. She stiffened and stretched, just like a Halloween kitty. I gathered some sparks and zapped towards the sky, and made some more stars appear. The pink at the horizon was being replaced by blue. I smiled to myself and hugged my knees. I was kinda cold. I had put on my sweatshirt, and I had pulled my long blonde hair in a ponytail, but I was still cold. I stood up crouched in a ball, and kinda I guess, morphed. it's fun. I turned into a cat just like Cherry. I climbed down the tree and jumped down. I ran away, like I do most nights when I was bored and feeling lonely. besides I had fur coat. But I couldn't help but think about what Faith had said. "we can make anything happen whenever and to whoever we want. " She was wrong, and no matter what it was that I had to do, I�d protect whomever I had to.Next: Chapter 2 |
