“I'm a witch?!” I question, pacing back and forth while mom sits on the couch. This can’t be happening… she has to be playing a joke on me.
“I know I should have told you before… There is this perfect school for witches in New Orleans and I went there when I was a little girl. The headmistress and Supreme is the sweetest thing, me and her are longtime friends.” She tries to console me, it's kind of helping but I'm still freaking out. “... and I can call the academy up and get you an interview set up…” She finishes.
“Supreme? What is a Supreme?” I stop my pacing and look at her. “Well the Supreme is the matriarch of the coven. There is only one Supreme per generation. Once one dies, the next in line is enthroned with her powers. The Supreme is decided through the test of the Seven Wonders. Supremes are heavily rewarded in life, being granted with things like money, fame, power and health.” She replies.
“Oh..ok..umm i'm sorry, I need a minute…” “Take all the time you need, hun, just tell me if you to make that call.” Do I want to go? This might give me some more opportunities in life, it's not like i'm going to college...so why not go to this “academy”.
“You can call… I want to go.” “Really? Perfect!” She claps her hands and grabs her phone from the coffee table and makes a call. After about five minutes she hangs up and looks at me. "Alright, we're good to go. You'll be leaving tomorrow morning."
I nod and she gets up and gives me an awkward hug before walking out of the room.

The next morning I got up bright and early and decided to pack mostly all of my clothes. I had to leave some stuff behind or I think the suitcase would have exploded. “Ready?” Mom calls from the kitchen. “Just about.” I say, peaking my head out of the door. I put on the outfit I had decided to pull out of my closet before packing.
A black dress with see through sleeves, black thigh high socks with Dr. Martens, some simple black rings and a simple choker, and space themed earrings. I tease my hair a little to make it look like it has volume and I do a simple yet elegant makeup look with some copper eyeshadow to match out all the black.
Looking fine as ever if I do say so myself. I grab my luggage and meet mom in the living room. “I'm ready when you are….what?” I say, looking confused at what mom is looking at. “You look like you are going to a funeral.” She points her finger at me. “You're just jealous I look hotter than you.” I chuckle as she puts her hand over her chest as if I offended her. “Come on, let's go.” I say walking over to the door with my suitcase.

Walking to the academy alone, I can’t help but take in the beautiful scenery from the delicious aroma in the air to all the greenery. The faint sound of jazz is just amazing. Mom said that the grand white mansion with a large iron gate is my destination.
I've been walking for what feels like years but in reality it's been only 20 minutes… mom didn't have the common decency to drive me from the hotel that she is staying at to the academy. Real bitch move but whatever.
Once I see the gates to the mansion I start to get really nervous. What if everyone hates me? What if I can’t do it again? Taking my shaky hand and pressing the buzzer seemed to take forever, like I was in slow motion. The large iron gates open and I walk on my weak knees to the front door and knock.
This is the start of a new life I guess.
