The Secret Witch

It all Starts Somewhere

Breanna watched the moon feeling both up-lifted and worried at the same time. She had always lived with her parents and didn't know how to live life on her own.

"Hey don't be afraid, you're not alone."

Breanna looked over at her friend. "How will I face them now? After the way I left, what I am. They will never understand." She looked back at the moon feeling the energy from it flow all around her.

"That is just something they will have to deal with. I will be there to support you and so will Nyx." She extended a hand. "Now come on, lets go get some rest. " She took it feeling the old her starting to die and be replaced with someone else. She embraced the change even though it scared her too.

She would not let anyone change what she believed and it was time to explore her true nature. She wouldn't back down any more.

The next morning she woke in a panic. She had no idea where she was and it took a while for her to calm down and the memory of what had happened return to her. She stood up and walked over to the window, slowly opening the blinds to let the warmth of the sun flow in.

Even the way things looked and felt seemed brand new, almost like she had been reborn as someone else. She didn't rush as she usualy would but instead took time just listening to the sounds of nature and relishing in the comfort and the warmth of the sun as it slowly heated her skin.

She could almost feel it burn away any fears or worries that she had before. Suddenly, a noise sounded breaking Breanna from her trance. Her phone was going off and instantly without even looking she knew who it was. Some of the fear came back before she turned to the sun again.

She took a deep breath, and tried to calm her emotions as she answered her phone. On the other side was her mother. She was hysterical. Screaming and crying into the microphone. "Mom. Calm down." Breanna spoke trying to reach the hysterical woman.

"I've been so worried about you! Why did you leave? Where are you? Are you okay? When are you coming home?" Breanna closed her eyes a moment and pulled strength from deep inside herself as she calmly spoke to her mother.

"I'm fine mom don't worry. I needed some time to figure things out. I'm staying with a friend for a little while okay? I'm not ready to come home just yet. I'm sorry that I left the way that I did and I'm sorry for snapping at you. I just need some time to figure out things for myself." Breanna was surprised that she had the strength to apologize and admit her faults to her mother. It was clear that she was changing rapidly.

Her mother still sounded incredibly worried as she responded. "I love you and I'll always be here for you. I pray that god is watching over you and that you find out what you need to know soon. Keep in touch okay?"

"I will mom. Thank you so much for understanding. I just need some time to figure out who I am and everything. Please don't worry, I'm safe. " Breanna hung up the phone and returned to watching nature take it's slow and steady path. It hadn't stopped even for a moment while she had looked away.

A gentle knock sounded on the door to the room she had slept in and for the time she actually took a look around. It wasn't that big of a room but it was beautifully decorated with flowers and other symbols of nature. Above the bed was a picture of the night sky when the moon was full. It was beutiful and made her feel at peace. "Come on in."

"I thought you might be awake. How did you sleep?"

"I actually slept really well." Elizabeth seemed more like her usual self now. She was wareing Jeans and a tee-shirt. I could still feel the power running through her veins though and I knew she was just as strong and confident as she was on the hill.

"I'm glad you slept well. I was worried since everything had happened so quickly. As I think about it, you have probably been walking this path longer than you realize and it just reached the point that night of everything falling into the proper place. Shortly after you left, I felt a strong power follow after you. The strange thing was that power itself felt like your aura.

"I knew something was about to take place so I made sure to keep my circle open for longer than normal. I'm glad I did keep the circle open. It gave the lord and lady a stronger connection to our energies when you returned."

"Thank you so much for this Elizabeth, my sister. I don't know what I would have done. I just need time away from them to really let myself find and learn to follow my own heart and soul. No matter what I did there it always felt like I had done something wrong. So from here on I don't want to live to meet their expectations, I want to live to meet my own."

Elizabeth smiled. "Good, confidence is important. If you don't believe in yourself and what you are doing then nothing good or bad can come of what you attempt. You just end up ghosting through life. You have to find what you believe and what you believe is possible." She gave Breanna a hug and gently guided her out of the little room.
