My grams used to tell me story's of the nighworld, of witches beautiful and powerful. " all the stories are true " she would chuckle running her hand through my hair. It was the only part of my childhood that I enjoyed. I don't remember what my father looked like but I remember his gentle hand and the happiness that my mom had. But that happiness did not last long, the day of my fifth birthday my father was found dead. Both my mom and grams were horrified talking about a group of dangerous people that kill monsters. ....us.

It wasn't a month later that my mom packed the car and drove away leaving me with my grams. It wasn't bad living with my grams I got to learn many things. Its wasn't strange or anything, to learn our ways it was something else. The only way to describe the feeling was belonging. But I was told to never show the mortals what I am capable of. If I did hunters would come like they came for my father.

I have lived with my grams and aunt for twelve years now. My mom ran away and got married some years back, I never saw an invitation. Its not like I care for her brain washing mortal husband anyways. But I guess that is what she wanted, to forget and live a normal life.

Just because im a powerful witch doesn't mean I don't have friends heck I even go to a mix high school. Where I hang with my buds Josh is a werewolf, tall muscular with that bad boy smile and that dirty blonde hair covering his deep blue eyes. Mimi is a pixie, 5' feet with a wicked attitude and sense of humor. Not to mention her pale pink hair and bright blue eyes. Eric is a vampire, tall muscular with a drop dead grin. Dark hair and eyes with his pale complexion. Brittney is Eric's twin sister. Tall thin with dark hair and cold eyes ( always towards Eric ) and Finn is a warlock tall thin with rich brown hair and little brown eyes. Smart and also nice ( only towards me for some reason ). Then there is me. Rayvn a witch 5'2 fit with long blonde hair and a temper ( or so im told............). I do have mortal friends and it is great and all, but there is something missing. But not with other nighworlders I don't have to hide who I am.

My grams owns a tea shop on fourth street in our little town of Cedars creek. We get alot of business from mortals, nighworlders, shadow realm even some hunters ( the good ones anyways ). Of course we don't just sell tea but other things. Grams is one mean witch when it comes to herbs, it is her specialty . Aunt Charlotte or Lotty is the best in divination ( oh she's also cursed to transform into a cat. She always blames it on the Frenchman like I know who that is ). And then there is me! Im good in almost everything but my specialty is coming up with spells and potions. But we have to be extremely careful not to get caught.

Grams always worries that im going to get caught and burned. I don't know why she so obsessed with that, I have always thought it was from watch my great grandmother or grams's mom be burned. Surprised well I was too when I learned my grams was three centres old. You see nighworlders live alot longer the mortals do, however we are not inmortal we can be killed. Witches on the hand are very powerful even in death as well. Our bodies may wither away but our energy stays behind. A power source only witches can tap into. But with power comes a heavy price and tapping into the witches void is not pretty.

Because I came from a powerful blood line, I have to ware specially made charms to blend in and conceal most of my powers. I can still do simple spells and such so its not all bad. I can only removed my charms in a life or death situations.

School is the hardest part of my day. I could turn all the slugs into frogs but I have to restrain myself. That doesn't mean I can't have a little fun messing around with them. A little light show here and there or doors opening by themselves. But the worst part is sitting next to Alex a hunter in search of a Maywood witch or in other words me. Maywood was my father's last name and after his death my name was changed from Rayvn Arabella Maywood to Rayvn Yvette silverlock, So in other words im screwed.

===========================================

What do you think so far? Its the first time I have ever written something like this!!
