We sat on the floor, with our legs criss-crossed, facing each other.  Granny held her hands out, palms facing upward.

I placed my hands flat on top of hers. I took a deep breath, relaxing myself. I only had one more day left till I turned eighteen and it would be time for me to conjure my familiar.

I mean dont get me wrong, my magic control was excellent. Atleast the control with the magic I have now. When a witch turns eighteen, it is like a magical seal breaks and she is granted access to the rest of her magical potential. The ancestors did this so that it would give us time to hone our skills and mature us so that magic would not be reeking havoc.

I on the other hand, I happen to over think things, causing my anxiety to get the best of me at times.

What if my familiar is something strange? Or worse, what if it doesn't appear?

"Little moon, focus. We are about to start."

I look up at granny, she is smiling softly at me. I feel her hands start to warm up as she allows her spiritual energy to appear. Her whole body is engulfed in a warm light color aura that reminds me of honeysuckles. It looks as if her body is sparkling with light. She looks nods at me to make mine appear. Its starts first at my hands. I close my eyes.  I can feel the tingle in my finger tips as my aura starts to appear all around my body. It's like a slow sensual embrace, making my body feel alive. I open my eyes and gasp. My  aura looked like a soft light green color. Like a freshly budded flower that had yet to grow its petals. It had soft specks of gold throughout it causing my body to look as if it was shimmering along with granny's.

"Holding hands allowed for it to be easier bringing forth your aura. This spiritual magic will be used to conjure your familiar. You will first summon your aura. Then call forth your familiar. Command them to appear. You must then kiss your familiar to seal the contract. Your familiar will then be able to sense when you are in danger and can even help you. Don't forget the most important thing. You can live without your familiar. If you die, so does your familiar."

Her eyes looked sad. Granny told me her familiar past away when my parents died. Her familiar was a rage demon. She died protecting granny and me from vampires that attacked us at night. That's how we ended up here hidden away from the world. Witches can get another familiar, but she loved her familiar as a sister. She always said she could never replace family.
