When I Believed in Love

Prologue

Leanne' POV

You're probably wondering how it all started......

I was siting in my room reading peacefully when Scott, my brother, burst into my room.

"What the hell, Scott!", he was looking for something.

"Do you still have the lantern?"

"Yeah, why do you need it for?"

"I'm going out with Stiles."

"Another police situation?", I sigh. "That boy should chill.", Scott rolled his eyes.

"Just give me the lantern.", I sigh annoyed and reached in my nightstand. My hand gripped the lantern and gave it to Scott. "Thanks. So, listen, if mom calls, tell her-", I cut him off.

"You're trying to get a good night sleep before tomorrow's tryouts. I got it, nerd."

"Thanks for covering.", he said running out my door.

"Just don't die in there! I can't cover that up!", I yelled after him.

"Got it!", he yelled back.

As soon as the front door closed. I got up and closed the door of my bedroom and turned off the lights. I took out my hidden candles and put them on the floor in a semicircular shape. I went to my underwear drawer and took out my purple glowing book, then got back to the middle of the room. I sat down in front of the candles and lighted them, then I opened the book at the chapter I remained at. I started the beginning incantation, which was a protection spell. I took in three deep breathes while focussing as the spell requires. Then started saying it:

"Elements of the Sun, Elements of the Day, Please come this way. Powers of Night and Day, I summon thee, I call upon thee, To protect me! So mote it be!", I repeated it three times and let the invisible protection surround me. I looked through the book bored. I read it over a million times but I could say there was something, something powerful I wqnted to experience.

As you can see, I was a witch, not a powerful one but it all changed after that night. As I was flipping through the pages when I came across a spell. A tracking spell. As I read it, it was supposed to show me where the one I choose is. The instructions said I need a map and blood of the person. I put the book down and started to meditate. After I was calm and focused I started to say the chant. As I was saying it, I cut my finger and let the blood drop on the map of Beacon Hills. The spell required to say the name of the person I want to track so I said Scott's name since we share the same blood. Suddenly, I saw the small drop of blood forming a line and travelling around the map. It stopped in the middle of the woods, meaning I found him. Thinking I could do better, I decided to intertwine with a possession spell. I read the instructions. I needed something from the person I want to see. I got up and ran to Scott's room. As soon as I entered I noticed it was cleaner than mine. I shrugged the thought off and grabbed the first thing I saw. His Lacrosse stick. I went back to my room and sat down. I said the incantation. I closed my eyes but nothing happened. I thought it didn't work. I was about to open my eyes when a spike of power went through my chest. My head fell back and my eyes glowed purple. Suddenly a vision came into my head. At this point I could see the woods. Everything felt like I was the one in the woods. I was looking around like trying to get my way out of there. Before I knew it, I stopped searching and a flock of stags ran towards me. The first instinct was to duck, so I did so. As soon as they were gone I got up and started to look to the ground like I was searching for something I clearly lost before the stags came. I looked everywhere but couldn't find it. I kept looking until I came across something that looked awfully similar to skin, human skin. I backed up a little to see it clearer. It was a body. A dead body. It was split in a half. I screamed. I wanted to go back but I tripped. Of course, I didn't know there was a valley so I rolled down it. I stopped when I reached the bottom. I stood there a little then I got up. I was about to leave when I heard a growl. A wolf's growl. I looked behind me and saw a creature that didn't look like a normal wolf at all. My eyes went wide when it came running towards me. I started to scream again. It grabbed me and bit me. soon I got away from it and ran into the opposite direction. Suddenly it started to rain harder and harder I could barely see something. As I was running I finally got on the rode and right there I was almost hit by a car. Suddenly a lighting shoot near me but it felt like it shoot me. I got out of the trace and caught myself screaming. I could still feel the lighting on me. I looked at my hands and saw there were thin and long threads. They looked like actual veins but way thinner then the real ones. I saw them spread all over my body, including my face. Suddenly I felt this fit of power getting into my through my chest. Somewhat it didn't hurt. I didn't notice only after a while, everything was floating. My bed. The candles. The spell book. Even I was floating. Suddenly, everything went white and I could see I wasn't in my room anymore.
