Coven

Chapter 1: New Beggining

"Welcome... To Miss Robichaux's academy for exceptional young ladies. This is your new home. As I look around the room and see all of your bright, beautiful faces I am more than happy to have you here. We will begin a new era for our kind and make our ancestors proud for years to come.  Now.. rules.........."

After Cordelia finished welcoming the new witches to the academy, they were dismissed to get their belongings and find their rooms, it's almost time for lights out. Queenie and I got new rooms. We've been bummed up on the coven food chain, the council.. Right under the supreme, so we're being treated as.. Witchy royalty I guess. Kyle and I would be sharing a room.. He's replaced Spalding, though the creep still lingers around in his ghostly state.
Kyle and I have grown closer, if that's even possible, after I'd been resurrected.. I understand what he went through now and I wouldn't wish it on anyone.. There's nothing on the other side.. Just darkness.. Nothingness.. But it's not just dark.. It's empty.. You're empty.. Forever. Kyle has nightmares about it most nights.. Violently thrashing in his sleep trying to wake himself up and almost beating me while doing so. I think I'll try to find something to help get rid of the nightmares.
"Are you sure this'll work Cordelia?" I ask, hoping I can finally rid Kyle of some of his suffering. "Yes, I'm certain. Have hope." Cordelia answers enthusiastically. This calms my nerves a bit. "He should be sleeping well after you give him this." Says Cordelia. "Thanks."

As I left the green house ,were Cordelia and I made a solution to Kyle's... Night terrors, I hear an argument growing in the hall. "Bitch, you'll never amount to anything, there's NO way you'll be the next supreme!"  "You don't know that! I could be celeste, you'll see!" "No witch with DOWN SYNDROME is going to be a supreme kyra!" This angered me. Nan had Down syndrome and she was an amazing witch.. She would have been a great supreme if Fiona wouldn't have Murdered her..
"Just because I'm not like you doesn't mean I can't be a supreme!" Kyra, was one of the first witches to arrive to the academy. When I first saw her I thought she was Nan except her hair was blonde.. Not the brunette Nan was. Since she was one of the first to arrive we had gotten to know her a bit better than the other girls. The more I got to know her the more I saw Nan in her. She's kind, but not afraid to speak her mind, and she does her best to be just like everyone else and to be treated like everyone else. She would not let her.. Condition get in the way of who she is on the inside. The girl she was arguing with is Celeste. Also one of the first to arrive, but she's not known as well as Kyra. Celeste sticks with her group. I guess you could call them the popular group of the academy. She's an instigator, but not much of a fighter. She reminds me all to well of Madison. Which is worrisome. "That's enough." Cordelia has snuck in behind me. When she raises her voice I jump not knowing she was watching. "It's time for bed girls. Tomorrow breakfast is at 9:30 sharp." Celeste and Kyra don't move an inch, stuck in a death stair stand-off. Fifteen girls or so came to watch the fight and they can't take their eyes off the two, making sure they don't miss a thing. "GOODNIGHT girls.." Cordelia has raised her voice a little more and the girls know this was her last nice warning. They scatter like roaches to their rooms. Kyra and Celeste stare for another 10 seconds for good measure before walking away to bed. I tell Cordelia goodnight and I leave for bed as well.

"What'd I miss earlier?" Kyle shuts the door to our room 30 minutes after I decided to come to bed.
"Nothing really, just a girl fight. I have a feeling there'll be a lot of that around here for awhile."
"Nothing happened right?" He asks. "No, everything's fine. Nothing happened, come to bed?" Kyle sits on the opposite side of the bed. "I have something for you.. Something to help you sleep. Cordelia helped me make it." Our eyes meet for a moment after I tell him and I can see a hint of panic and worry in his eyes and his breath quickens a bit. "It's ok.." I tell him, trying to reassure him nothing bad will happen. His breathing slows back down. "Here, drink it." "Will I feel different? What are the side affects?" He begins to breath fast again. Fiona didn't fully fix him.. Small things still seem to scare him. "You'll be perfectly fine Kyle I promise. Cordelia says you won't feel a thing. It's going to help you Kyle, just drink it ok?" "Ok." I see the worry on his face but it soon disappears after he drinks the small vile and nothing happens. "I don't feel anything. I feel fine." He says with a more relaxed expression on his face. "See, I told you." A small smile dances across his face. He leans in and kisses me. It makes me feel warm. After being resurrected all I craved was warmth. "Thank you." He says. "How was your day?" He asks. "Long. There were so many girls to go through. We had to sort out who was a witch and who was a wanna-be." "Oh yeah!" He says "I remember having to carry a few out." We both laugh. "How was your day?" I ask in return. "Are you kidding? I'm the help slash guard dog. I cooked dinner and kicked wanna-be witches to the curb!" This makes us both laugh again. We stay up for a few more minutes talking and giggling and kissing. We both want each other tonight.. But tomorrow's a big day and we can't afford to lose sleep. We settle for a little make out session and slip off to sleep..
