Prologue

POV: Isabella Philips

When I woke up this morning and I couldn't take my ass back to sleep so I just binge-watched the whole Twilight series.

My best friend and roommate Aisha woke up around the middle of Eclipse and joined me. We just made fun of the whole franchise at that point. Can't watch nothing with this girl. Aisha just too unserious.

We both just gushed over all the beautiful people. Aisha is obsessed with Angela, like much more than me, which is saying something. She should be glad she in the TV cause she wouldn't stand a chance against Aisha obsessed ass.

She had a class so she had to dip in the middle of breaking down: part 1. She was mad she didn't get to see the fight scene like the girl was bout to not go to school, she was already running too damn late. I'm glad I ain't got no classes today, I needed this break.

When the last movie ended I felt a weird pang in my chest. These movies done stressed me. Let me tell you, Bella and Edward have stressed me out more than anything and made me adore them at the same time.

I had the biggest crush on Edward fine ass when I was younger, then I just forgot about him I guess. I was in love with him. My mama told me that I told her about the craziest dreams of me and him having a life together.

She said I was so convincing she would have thought that I was telling the truth if the movies and books weren't-well- movies and books. I find it weird how convinced I was of our 'love'. I guess I always been delulu. Robert was and still is fine as hell though. Him as Batman did things to my heart.

POV: Isabella Philips

It's sometime in the pm and I'm walking down the sidewalk on the phone with Aisha, my bestiepoo, heading back to my humble apartment from the grocery store which almost got robbed by some dude with a spray painted nerf gun, New York New York.

" I swear girl, this shit is way too crazy, like damn we all broke, but you don't see me tryin to rob a store. Shit I woulda been done robbed a bank", she just laughed at everything I say.
"Girl, you know people be broke as fuck these days, shit, I might have to rob a bank one of these days" she gets on my nerves, I swear. "Guh yo mama would beat the black off you", she knows I'm not lying either.

"Hell, she would beat black into me just for condoning your nonsense", she love me too much to do that but I gotta be dramatic. "Guh, she wouldn't even raise her voice at you if you stabbed her", ok now she being dramatic.

"Excuse me, young lady. Would you like to buy a crystal", guess I'm finna have a crystal collection. "Imma call you back, Aisha", I hung up before she even said anything. I hate when she hangs up first and she hate when I hang up first. It's always a race.

I smile at the older lady and nod. I look at the crystals and see one that looks like it's reflecting sunlight, which shouldn't be possible since she's stationed in the shade but I almost failed science because of light refraction, or whatever the fuck, so I'm not gone take my word.

"That one please", I point to the one practically glowing. She smiles as if she had just confirmed something. I hope this ain't no voodoo shit. "How much is it", she finna milk me dry but I wasn't just gone ignore her.

"Free", this definitely some voodoo shit. I look at her in shock and quickly tell her I couldn't possibly take something that she is selling for free.....even if I want to. Even if it's voodoo shit, it's free. She calmly 'insists'. "It's yours now. It chose you." Damn, I don't even want it no more with her almost ominous(not really) choice of words.

I look at it again as it shines brighter as she places it in my hand. "Thank you", I smile at her, though a little cautious. "Use it well", ok so definitely voodoo shit, and though I don't understand what she means, I get this weird feeling that I should take it. I just say thank you one more time and head back to my apartment.

Once I reach my apartment I lock the door behind me, set the bags down, and start putting things up. Aisha ain't gone be back till late cause she is out clubbing. If she caught me last night I would have went but I'm way too tired tonight.

When I finish putting the groceries and stuff up, I check my phone to see it's 7:50 pm and I start my night routine. I like to have that done so I can relax for the rest of the night. I got an 8 am class tomorrow. I need my rest. Even though I ain't goin to sleep til 3 something. I always do this to myself. Them 8 am classes ain't shit like high school 8 am. Nobody warned me.

I grab some clothes and head to the bathroom. I start my water, pour in some bath salts, and get in to soak.

I look at the crystal that I set on my living room table and walk to grab it. Once it's in my hand I stare at it and head to my room. When I reach my room I sit on my bed and look at it. I feel like it's special but I can't put my finger on it.

I look at the TV that I didn't turn off before I left and see it's still on Netflix but it's doing the thing where it flashes through shows slowly and then the very first Twilight pops up and leaves as quickly as it came.

"If I was in twilight, I'd hop on the Edward train real quick", I said laughing to myself. I wish I could experience the world of twilight even if only for a day. I wonder what I would change first. Probably Bella's disaster of a relationship with Charlie cause he was a very underappreciated father. You never know how good of a father you have till he's gone.

Suddenly the crystal starts feeling hot in my hand and it starts getting brighter. I throw that shit to the floor.

A blinding light shines, the only thing I 'see' is darkness.

Stupid Fuckin Pretty VooDoo Crystal.
