hi guys! So this is my second book. Well actually its not mine . All the credit for this book goes to douglasodom who gave me permission to write this for him. I highly recommend checking it out. The title is still the same, the characters too, but, I will change the chapters slightly but. hopefully not a lot.

I would really like for you guys to vote fan and comment as support and criticism is very welcome. I have another book called 'Oh Hell No!!!' if you want to check it out. I have amazing readers who have given me amazing support and to be honest that's what keeps me going so hopefully you guys will do the same.

Thanks ill get on with it now....

I awoke earlier then usual. I guess my brain knew it was the day. The day that I would get my powers The day I would I would be claimed into witch hood.Today was going to be all about me and it made me nervous. I'm not one to admire when put into the spotlight, quite clumsy in fact.

I slowly got out of bed and went to get a shower. I just could not wait! A hundred thought and feelings thundered through my mind.

As I massaged the shampoo into my brown hair a mix of emotions swirled through me, like a river flowing quickly through a valley. Excitement, happiness, nervousness and wonder.

Its my sixteenth birthday, a day when all witches in my family are gifted with their powers.

Unfortunately my mom, Becky-Jo Miller and my dad Matthew Miller would not be here this morning to celebrate with me not until after school. Sadly for me the Council Of Witches were having their once every ten year meeting and unfortunately for me, my parents just so happened to be the head council people....woo! Note the sarcasm.

Not that im not proud of them but, I guess i'm just a little pissed it had to be on my birthday and the biggest one at that.

I finished getting ready and walked out of my house adorning a thigh lent grey cardigan, denim jeggings, a plain white tank top and a pair of super cute brown boots. I was glad I was wearing the wooly cardigan when the cool Autumn wind began nipping at me as I walked to the bus stop.

As the horrible smelly old yellow school bus was pulling up next to me I couldn't help but pray that there was a chance my parents got me the PT cruiser I was dreaming about since forever. Maybe, just maybe they feel really guilty for not being here this morning to wish me happy birthday and decide to get me it. Ha! wishful thinking that was.

When I arrived at school I was glad to see my friend Raven greet me. The minute she started to rant on about her latest conquest I zoned out.

'Oh god Olive, he was gorgeous and his....' she ranted in her melodic voice. I could understand why the guys fell at her feet. From a swish of her golden blonde hair to a bat or wink of her bright blue mysterious eyes the guys were hooked. Mind you, she wasn't anything like a slut not nearly. She just well liked to flirt a lot. I wished I could but no guy ever went near me. I don't blame them either all I am is the dull brown haired girl with ivy green eyes.

I wonder will my powers change me. Mom said your powers enhance your abilities and beauty. It would be cool to get elemental powers and mind control like my mom or maybe even teleportation and telekinesis like my dad.

I sighed happily. All my life I have heard of how great it is to have your powers. How the make you happier, life easier but, i've only heard stories off mum and dad. I've never actually experienced it because the rule set by all council members, ' no person under the age of acceptance is allowed to bear witness to the use, display or seeing of an act of magic taking place in or out of their household until the righteous age of sixteen'. Yeah so my parents weren't allowed use magic in front of me but, after tonight they can.

I just can't wait for school to finish even though its just started.
