Emeline Avalos was a very conservative celebrity. She didn't crave attention, in fact, she despised it for attention brings certain death, especially when guns and bombs were a threat (although they still are). She had only posted her terrible singing as a joke and then had millions of fans and record labels hammering at her door. In a reckless attempt to get the fame off of her she posted a scandal with evidence on an anonymous account but the fan base just grew when she got exposed. She had been an overnight celebrity when she had hoped, at the very most, to be known to 1. While Emeline wanted to stay in hiding, her best friend, Marianna, had different ideas.


Marianna was obsessed with the idea of fame. She thought that being someone significant in someone's life was magical, though for fear of being burnt at stake for being a witch she could not. However, she could certainly help a friend.


"I propose a wager!"


Emeline gave her a wary look. " What's the wager for?"


"A wager to see whether being famous is worth it or not. For just a day I shall cast a spell so you aren't so wary of fame. Whether you choose to be anonymous or reveal yourself will be your choice. At the end of the day if you regret it I shall take it all back"


It was a fair deal. To be famous for a day it's kind of testing if she should reveal herself or not. She had ignored the part of her that craved being famous for a long time. Being famous came with responsibilities and this often drove people to death.


*time skip*

"So how was it" my best friends excited blue eyes searched mine for an answer. I give her a sheepish smile."YOU LIKED IT I TOLD YOU" she screams while jumping on a couch.


That day Emeline learned a lesson. You have to face your fears or there is no moving on in life.
