A Magician's Gift

Ch. 24

(BTW, this is gonna be a little adult-y for those of y'all in the younger spectrum)

"Alright, class, that's all for today! Remember, your part of the set or costume is due by Monday! Have a nice weekend, everyone!" Mr. Rios dismissed as the bell rang. "Morty, I'll text you later?"

"Why, you got somewhere to be, or some boy to fuck?"

"Ugh. I'm having a sleepover with my friends. Just text me if you need me to okay any costume designs, okay, Drake?"

"Kay. Have fun."

"Thanks, Morty! Bye!" I ran off, and met up with the others. "Alright, my moms are out of the house for the week, they're in Peru, studying some animals. We got the whole house to ourselves."

"Sweet! I have to do something quick, okay?"

"Kay Zee, see you there?"

"Yes." I teleported myself to be next to John. "HOLY SHIT!"

"Sorry," I apologized. "It's fine. You're going to the sleepover thing, right?"

"Yep! They said to meet them there, so, I think I have a few hours."

"Oh, great. Wanna head back to the apartment?" I nodded my head and teleported the two of us back there. "When do you need to go?"

"Ooh, shit. I have to go to do a solo show... I completely forgot about that!! Shit! I have ten minutes, I should be done in about an hour or two."

"Alright, great. See you then, Luv," he said, pulling me into a swift kiss.

Me: girls...

Babs: Yo, sup Zee?

Me: I forgot I had a show today.... I should be done in an hour or two at the most. We still have four hours until we're supposed to meet, and I still have to do an hour or so of performing, plus I want to spend some time with John if that's fine

Babs: go, go do ur thing! U want us to start without u or nah

Me: Go ahead, don't let me stop you. Give me two hours, okay?

Babs: KK!!!!!!! BAIBAIIIIII!!!!

I shut my phone off and teleported, transforming my clothes mid-port. I ended up near the theatre I was supposed to perform at. "Hi, hi, hi. I'm so sorry for being almost late. I'm so sorry."

"It's fine, ma'am. Just go. The crowd's been waiting for a few minutes now."

"Oh, my gosh!"

"Bout' time you showed up, Zee! Where were you?!"

"John's! Okay? I forgot about this!"

"Are you kidding?! You-you forgot?! This alone could get us five thousand each! YOU'RE CURRENTLY LIVING WITH YOUR B—" (Just pretend the tickets are like $8 so there's around 2,500 people at the show, they made $20,000 in total. Half of it goes to them and the other half goes to the staff. Kinda unrealistic but whatever it's a comic book world. Also idk I just picked a random number)

"Sorry, I really am!!!" The lights dimmed, and I went under the stage. I opened the trapdoor from inside, signaling the lights. I threw a smoke bomb up there, and teleported myself up. I smiled and bowed, and bright lights shone on me. "Hello, Metropolis! I am Zee Zatara, the Princess of Prestidigitation, and I will be tonight's entertainment for tonight! For my first act, I will make my assistant, my cousin, Zachary Zatara, levitate!" I announced. The crowd started gasping. "Ah, but where is he, you might ask?" I asked with a smirk. I pulled my hat off my head, and pulled a smoke bomb out of my hat. I threw it on the ground, and teleported Zach there. "Ah, there you are, Zachary!"
