(Saturday)

Anastasia woke up from Captain's constantly begging to be outside. With a groan, she got up from her warm bed, slipped on her slippers, and headed to the back door. Anastasia shivered, as she stood by the back door, as Captain plays around in the rain before potty. 

"Come on Captain!" she called out, her breath viperrise. Captain returned to the back door and she quickly allowed him in. Bella is up and stands in the kitchen with a cup of coffee. Making herself some coffee, she looks towards Bella. "You still want to learn about Wicca?" she asked her.

Bella looked up at Anastasia, "Really? I mean you really wanted me to teach me about Wicca?" she asked her.

Anastasia smiled at her, "Course." she replied. "After breakfast, we can go to our bedroom and I can explain what being Wicca is all about."

An hour later they retreated to their bedroom. "How much do you remember what Grandma and Grandpa Swan taught us?" she asked Bella. Bella took a seat on her bed, sitting on her knees.

Bella shrugs, "I remember celebrating the summer eclipse. And how Grandma used homeopathic reminds, when we get sick. And how Grandpa Swan would tell us stories where the witches were the good guys." she listed.

Anastasia nodded, "That's the start of it. I don't know if you would gain any powers like me. You could be like Dad, who doesn't have any powers." she told her, and Bella nodded and pouted slightly at the news.

"One of the things you need to know about Wicca is that we respect the earth and all its propriety." She started, grabbing a few books from the shelves. Bella nodded, "Many think Mother Earth needs all the help."

"But doesn't she need help with climate change?" Bella asked her.

Anastasia tilted her head, "I mean in a supernatural context." She told her. "All creatures were created for some reason. Whether it's animal, human, and or supernatural." She explained herself.

Bella narrowed her eyes, "do you mean there are werewolves or vampires?" She asked. "Like Dracula?"

Anastasia shrugged, "they could for all we know. After all, if witches exist, I won't put a pass that others don't." She explained. "Here are a few books that have the basics, but don't hold your breath on being one hundred percent accurate." She told her handing her a few worn-out paperbacks with bright colors.

Bella reads the covers one at a time. And she could understand why her sister warned her about their accuracy. 'The start of your witches life' or 'Crystal in healing for witches', that last one has some hope, 'Herbs for witches'.

"Are there any books that have any accurate accents of witches?" Bella asked her.

Anastasia nodded, as she took a sit on her bed, "Yes, Grandma Swan had journals from our ancestors and all their accounts as witches." She sighs heavily and her shoulders slump, "but I have no idea where they are, and I haven't had any time looking for them since I've been trying to catch up on some of my classes." She explained.

Bella had a mischievous smile"Can you cast spells like in Harry Potter of do you twitch your nose like in Bewitched?" Bella asked.

Anastasia luah, "I actually have no idea if I could cast spells." She told her. "After all only those journals would have the answers."

Bella gives her a large smile. "Then we better go on a hunt for those books" She told her. "It'll be like how we played treasure hunting at Grandma Swan's house." She said getting all excited.
