Broken Boy

Witches curse

I was laying down on my bed wondering why I was in this world. Why I was like..well me.

I looked at my feet at the end of my bed, wondering how I could do what I could do.

"Marie, shut your light off please!"
My mother demanded.

I ignored her willingly.

"Marie!" My mother loathed.

"Yes I know!" I grunted. Then I got up to shut my light off.

Why didn't I just use my powers to shut them off? Easy, because I HATE I mean HATE using my powers for useless things like that. It wastes my useful energy.

I plopped back in bed, then I shut my eyes. I was wondering when I could see other witches. I couldn't be the only one. Could I?

I grab my computer, then I looked up 'witch schools.' My eyes drifted to the big paragraph that showed on my computer.

"Join our coven today. We need girls who feel unsafe and powerful." I read out loud as I didn't take my eye off one word.

"If you have more than one power, contact us right now with parent/guardian's permission at; jointhecoven5.@gmail.com, thank you! -Fiona" I read again.

My eyes widened as my heart pounded. I have 3 powers. I could ask my mom to join!

"Mom! Could you come here for a second?" I ask with my head turning towards the hall, but my eyes on the screen.

"Marie! Really? It's 10:00!" My mother yelled as I heard her feet slam on the ground.

"I'm sorry! This is important! It's about..my condition." I say a bit quieter.

My mom enters the room with messy hair and reddish eyes.

"See! Look! It's a coven! And I-I have more than one!" I blurted out as I pointed to the screen.

"More than one what?" My mother said annoyed.

"Powers!" I yell.

"Marie, can we please look at this in the morning! It's almost 10:12! That's late for me! Especially, when I have to wake up at 4:00 am!" My mom said annoyed again.

"Ugh fine!" I tried to say in a soft voice.

"Well, thank you!" My mom said smiling as she makes her way to the door.

I take a deep sigh, then I hop in bed for a good nights rest.

3:00 am
I woke up extra early today, because I wanted to show my mom about the school.

I was sitting at the kitchen table drinking orange juice. I was on my laptop reading about the school.

My mom walked in the kitchen very surprised to see me.

"Marie! What on gods name, are you doing up!?" She said cringing.

"You said we could look at the school in the morning! So here we are!"

"As in the morning I meant, when I get out of work." My mother said rolling her eyes.

"Well, look!" I say pointing at the 'come now, if you're a witch with more than 1 power!' button.

"Are..you sure honey. This is a big responsibility. How long do you stay for?"

"Forever, I believe."

"Sure. It's a lot less work on my hands. Sign yourself up, then go to bed. Alright?" She said pouring herself orange juice.

"Okay!" I said wheezing.

I ran upstairs with my laptop, then sat on my bed.

3:30 am
I singed myself up. I called my moms 'slave' I guess you could call it, up to drive me.

"Jane! Could you drive me to the witch school a couple blocks up?" I yell.

"Is your mother okay with this?" She asked in her wonderful British accent.

"Yes, thank you."

"Come down deer."

I run down the stairs with 5 outfits, then I quickly drink the rest of my orange juice from earlier.

I run in the car, as I read some books I left in there.

"T-t-they expect you. Right?" Jane asked worried.

"Yes! I called the owner Cordelia!" I say smiling as my dimples showed.

"Good." Jane said as we pulled into the driveway.

"Goodbye deer!" Jane said as she kissed my cheek.

"Bye!!" I say running tours the house.

The door slowly opened.

"Marie. Right?" A girl with long blonde hair said.

I shook my head smiling.

"I'm Cordelia."
