Countless Time

Mirror On The Wall

My wrist felt like was on fire. I opened my eyes slowly and blinked. It was so bright. A pair of brown eyes met my eyes. Will covered my view. 

"Your finally awake," he said and helped my up. 

" There something wrong with my wrist," I said. Travis and I stared at each other. I heard a sharp intake of breath. I looked down and saw my wrist. It had a marking on it. I watched it move around my arm like a swirl of colour. It stopped at my shoulder. How many more of these was a going to get?

"Where am I?" I asked. 

"My house," answered Travis. I sat an put my hand to my temple. 

" I killed a man," I said. 

"WEll, he wasn't really a man," Travis said trying to make me feel better. 

"Moms gonna come pick us up in 5," added Will. " We have a circle meeting," he added. 

I noded and closed my eyes. I had know idea what I was supposed to do at a CIRCLE casting. 

"Do I have to go?" I asked in a whisper. I turned to see Will was gone and Travis was looking a me again.  

" You can borrow a dress from my sister," he said pointing towwards the door. I looked and saw her standing there holdings a dozen dresses in each arm. My eyes wen wide. 

"What he Fu-,"

"no foul language," she said putting a finger to her mouh." Now come we only have an hour to ge ready," she said dragging me out of the room. I gave Will a elp me lok. He shrugged his soulder and sat down.

"K let's see what dress you like," she said closing the door behind me. After trying on a dozen dresses. " And we have to make sure it shows your mark.

Marks I added in my head.

After 15 minutes of finding no good dress, Tam was fully ready with a red dreass with matching red eals showing a delicae mark in the shape of a heart formed out of red swirls. I was sitting there still not sure of which dress I wanted.  And then I saw it. A midnight blue dress so dark it looked like black. I picked it up and noticed a hole in the back right were my second mark was. I quickly changed into it without looking into the mirror and walked out. I heard her gasp when she saw me. I looked down to see if there were still bruises on my legs. None. Then looked up at her. She twirled her fingertelling me to spin around. I did.  

"Yo have two marks," she whispered. I nodded." Do the others know?" 

"They will now," I said sighing as she got to work on my hair. She was bout to do my make up when I stopped her. No more than eyeliner a whispered. She obeyed. She tried to make me look in the morror after she was done. I didn't. Instead I one of her coas over myself.

"Tammy and Sam, we have to go come one," screamed Will. I was abou to make a run for it. I was half down the stairs when something whizzed by my head.

"Hey," I heard Travis scream at he bottom. I sprinted the last two steps and saw what hit him. A pair of sparkling black heels. He looked at me accusingly. 

 I lifted my arms above my head. I wasn't me I said. 

"Tammy," screamed Travis. I was thinking about making a run for t front door to. But Tammy grabbed me. 

" You put on hose heels rigt now," she hollered at me. "Or I will do a binding spell on you, and I swear to crazy glue those to your feat," she said squeezing my arm so hard it was probably gonna leave a mark. I obeyed and put them on. I was allready too tall. 

As I was putting them on I lost my balance and fell. No one noticed. Thank god. hey were all to busy looking at Tammy. All of them exept Travis. He was laughing. It took me a minue to figure out he was laughing at me.
