Book 1: Nowhere boys and their Nowhere girl

Chapter 16

Chapter 16: Attacked by Demon Mia, now it’s really personal

Sam’s P.O.V

*Dream state*

I walked back into the lounge from my kitchen. Mia and I were having our annual movie night. We were watching some scary movie with something like a werewolf in it. When I was in the kitchen, I put on a pair of fake hands that were the same as the one in the film. I snuck up behind Mia grabbing her shoulders,

“Ahhh Mia,” but she didn’t react… huh? I shook her again,

“Mia?” I looked up to see the film had stopped and the screen started glowing with differing colours on it. I was confused, but when a symbol showed up on the screen, spinning around like it was on a cord,

“I know that thing,” I heard faint screeching,
“Bring it to me. I can help you,” what? I jumped over the couch to get a closer look at the screen wanting to make sure it was what I thought it was.

I heard a whooshing sound and I whipped around to see Mia no longer sitting on the couch. My eyes widened, Mia?

“Bring it to me, and you will go home,” I turned back to the TV,

“I know that symbol,” it was the talisman that sat around Felix’s neck.

Next thing I know, I was awake on the floor of the store room in Phoebe’s shop. I jumped, suddenly filled with energy. I turned my head to find Felix. He was sprawled out across the couch with his arms around Blake. I resisted the urge to growl at him and tell him to take his hands off my sister, but I had something bigger to do.

I moved into a squatting position and crawled over to where Felix and Blake lay. When I was close enough I hoped up on my knees and slowly reached for the talisman, making sure not to touch Felix or Blake. I had just picked it up when Felix woke with a shock. Huh?

Blake’s P.O.V

I felt something jump underneath me and it caused me to wake up. I lightly hit Felix knowing it was him I was laying on. But I don’t think Felix realised I even hit him; he was too busy looking at Sam like he was an alien. Huh, what is going on between these two? Felix looked both creeped out and annoyed at Sam,
“Morning,” was all that came out of Sam’s mouth as he dropped the talisman. I rolled my eyes,
“Were you just watching me sleep?” I looked at Felix funny. He says the weirdest things sometimes. Sam looked at Felix’s chest where the talisman lay shaking his head,
“No,” before backing away slightly so Felix and I could sit up. Felix was up first,

“We have defiantly been spending way too much time together,” I nodded sitting up with Felix. I rubbed my head trying to get rid of the head ache forming. Where the hell is this coming from? I saw out of the corner of my eye, Phoebe walk into the room carrying a cup of tea in one hand and Alice’s book of shadows under the other arm,

“Good, because that’s when you’re strongest, and the demon knows that too. Somewhere in here, is the spell my sister cast. Find her, for all our sakes.” Felix nodded taking the book which was now in her hand being offered to Felix. But this made Felix kinda cranky too,
“How will I know which one it is?” I rolled my eyes nudging him,
“Be nice,” Felix rolled his eyes right back at me. But Phoebe ignored it,
“You’ll feel it. A true witch can feel magic residue.” It was true. No one actually knew how it worked, but the fact that it did changed everything,

“You’re a true witch?” I jumped at the sound of Andy’s voice. I turned to see both him and Jake now awake, Jake getting his shoes on,

“So she says,” Felix muttered as a return to Andy’s odd question. Didn’t he know about Felix being a true witch? I sat looking through the book at the same pace as Felix. I shuddered when he came to spell which he hesitated on as well, the Unmaking spell that brought us here.
