My names Keira Thomas and i'm what you'd call a witch, just when teenagers have enough on their plate already, I've got things like my mad older brother with his experiments and not the mention cheerleaders, and that's before the extra classes i take for magic with all my homework! So lets just say life can be hectic and sometimes, things don't always go the way i want them too.

"Keira!! Catch it!" A vase flew across the room, swivelling in random directions, while making a menacing humming noise. I raised my hands to motion it towards me gently.. And then tried it again.. A heavy sigh left my lips "How am i supposed to do that when you know my magic doesn't work?!" Yep, you read right, i'm 15 years old and still haven't found my magic..

 A small noise of "oh yeah" came from my hair brained mother. A soft buzzing noise passed by my head, turning round quickly I see the vase being held by a small creature, the vase struggling violently, dragging the creature back and forth as it did, a shattering sound came as the creature bit into the vase and it fell to the ground in pieces. "Abrial, look what you've done!" Came a defeated kind of huff from my mother, the creature quickly came out with a sequence of squeaks, a defiant pose, in his small odd body. He looks a little like a combination of a cat and a bee, with small cat shaped furry body with massive bee eyes and wings, he what you'd call a flying class demon, hes my mother familiar. And in case your curious, nope, no familiar for me either.

"Don't even start using attitude with me Abrial! What have a told you about destroying ancient pieces, cursed or not?!" She ranted to the small creature. A series of high pitched squeaks responded, clearly arguing back. Well I knew where this was going, they'd fight, i'd only hear half the conversation, then they'd just make up and be all kissy face again, and I wasn't going to stand around and watch.

I quickly evacuated the kitchen towards the sanctuary of my bedroom, passing by my brother room to hear what sounded like 3 frogs croaking in unison, not even bothering to look at that crazy sh*t I got to my room, to collapse onto my bed. So yeah, in case you hadn't noticed, not your normal life when your family are all witches/wizards, even more so when your part of that family with no magic! All my family have found their magic, theres my older brother Darren, my mum and my dad, ALL with their own familiars, so as you can imagine, things do get a tad hectic.. And that's before i've even shown you school.
