Don't Mess With Time

Chapter Six

The old and new Coven entered the classroom together.

"Ani, this is just like when we had those animal henchmen in first year," Hester whispered.

Hilda gave her mother a glare.

Anadil snickered.

"You were pretty good with that baby ogre. Had him potty trained and spitballing Evers," Anadil responded.

"Still can't believe you got that python to be friends with your rats, Ani."

"If that's all there is to parenting, we'd be great at it," Anadil said with an evil smirk.

"Raise then to be the next generation of Evil," Hester added, finding that she was smiling as well.

And then, as if thy had both suddenly realized they were discussing having kids (perhaps they had each thought together), they both turned a light red color and looked away.

Hilda growled internally.

They were so close! They just had to admit how they felt!

How hard could it be to just go and tell someone you liked them?!

Her parents were being wusses.

If she had a crush on someone, she would tell them immediately.

Of course she would.

To do otherwise would be silly.

Amber glanced at her sister and raised an eyebrow as if she could sense her twin's thoughts.

Before Amber could say anything, the professor entered.

Sheeba Sheeks.

Hilda glanced down at their class schedule and smirked.

This was the class she was most excited for.

Special Talents.

Agatha glanced at Axel and looked him up and down.

"So you're with me," she said.

Axel swallowed, trying to calm his nerves.

"Yeah."

He bet Theresa didn't get nervous.

She was just so perfect.

He sighed.

He needed to stop being so petty.

Maybe that was one way that he and his father were similar, at least.

Agatha nodded and then glanced up, looking distracted.

He took the chance to slip away.

When Agatha turned back around, he was gone.

Hester grinned as the professor told them about showing off their Special Talents.

She said something about not expecting everyone to have a talent.

She felt oddly smug and proud of Hilda as the girl smirked just like Hester did.

Dede grabs Dot's textbook and turned it into white chocolate.

Hester sighed.

"Do we really need another girl that has the power to become obese instantly?"

Dot slapped Hester's arm and glared with surprising vehemence.

Hester quieted and Anadil raised an eyebrow, glancing between the two.
