Walking off the small blue metal bus, Sophie looked up at the crimson building in front of her. Cracks were evident in the tattered red paint whilst the bookshop itself appeared to be abandoned. Taking a deep breath, Sophie walked up the smooth stone steps, advancing towards the red wooden door. With a slight push, the door creaked open and the sound of a small bell dinged above her.  

"Sophie is that you?" Her aunt Bella chimed in a honey toned voice. Peering from behind the counter, aunt Bella looked Sophie from head to toe behind her thick rimmed glasses.
"Don't worry sweetie, we will get you into routine in no time"

My baby sister is the witch of wisdom and she is starting to just know things out of no where. But now I have dead people, and worst of all, I have my unknown mates, first mate. And she is trying to make me change and be just right for him. So I go and see Clarissa, she is the elder witch my sisters and I have talked with about us. And apparently I can see through the second plain. I can speak with the dead, like Ghost Whisperer and A Medium. ~~~~~~Excerpt~~~~~~ "You can see me!" She said and her face turned ecstatic and I blinked and shook my head. "No, please, I need you to tell my mother that I didn't mean to do do this to myself." I took a hard gulp and met the young girls eye. "Please. It is killing her." She begged and tried to grab my hand but it went through me. "Fine, which one is she?" I asked looking around the restaurant. "The one at the front desk... her name is Maria." She said following me as I walked back towards the front. "A? Where are you going?" Ivory asked and I just held up my hand. "Hi, are you Maria?" I asked and saw the girl nod. "Yes, how can I help you?" She asked with what I can tell was a fake smile. "I know this is going to sound crazy... but your daughter is here." "Mina." The dead girl piped in and I looked over at her. "My daughter is at school." She said and looked around where I had glanced. "Mina is here... I can speak to the dead, she wants me to tell you something."

“Hello, gorgeous,” he said staring at me with amusement in his eyes. He had finally stopped walking and he stood exactly one inch from me. I stepped back my eyes going wide. Who the hell was this guy? Why did he feel so comfortable standing next to me butt naked? And why didn’t he carry any extra clothes with him as all other were’s did? God, he was so damn sexy. He stood at about six foot five, he had black hair that fell in waves around his shoulder, golden brown eyes, and a face that an angel would be jealous of and a body built with muscles. I wanted to look to see if he had a six pack but I knew that if I looked then I would see other things that I wasn’t ready to see from any guy. I stepped back two steps. “What do you want?” I asked finally finding my voice. “You,” he said smiling.

"To ask what?" I played dumb "If you don't want to know I don't have to tell you." He answered playfully, leaning closer to me. "Louis," I said in a serious tone, "It may actually drive me insane if you don't tell me." "Then ask." He said, his breath fanned my ear. "Louis," I began "Yes?" a shiver ran down my spine as his lush voice filled my ear. "If you're not human, then what are you?" I finished "Guess." He whispered, a breath escaped my chest as he nibbled the edge of my ear. "Louis," I grabbed his shoulders and pulled away from him, "This is serious, I truly want to know." He pouted, "Come on miss 170, your smart enough to figure it out." I sighed, "Can I at least have a hint?" __________________________________________________________________________________ Emily Fryer is your average high school teenager.

[COMPLETED : 5|09|2016 and slowly editing ] He snapped his fingers and a red flame flourished into existence. "How did you-" "I'm a professional." He smirked, clearly enjoying this.

He flexed his palms and the flame disappeared. "With practice, even you can control your Blue Matter." I didn't say anything, just nodded. "This Blue Matter is stronger than Red Matter.

He watched from a distance as she played. Running through the park, chasing something from her imagination, he'd never seen her so happy. It was the day of her sixth birthday. Her long red hair and blue eyes along with her bright purple party dress caught the eyes of many visiting the park that day. He'd been watching her for weeks, he knew that today was the day. Should he go back without the girl, he'd surely be punished. With them was where she was meant to be. The girl wandered farther away from the crowd, dancing and spinning to music that only she could hear. The family was completely unaware, still preparing food on their picnic table. The girl's mother carefully placed six candles into the brightly frosted cake. They were distracted and he knew that it was time. She kneeled beside a tree picking clovers from the ground, out of sight of everyone. No one even even glanced in their direction. In only a second he was beside her. She didn't know what was happening until it was too late. He knew it was what he had to do. So he took her. ~ ~ ~ After twelve years of training in one of the most elite assassination groups in the world, Bella Price is returned to the life she was forced to forget. When the agency she was raised in is exposed and taken down by the American government, she is placed back into the arms of the family that she once had.

I promised to retrieve a family heirloom but have instead encountered its owner Isabella. If I can help her break the riddle that's bound her to the bracelet, I get to keep it. Yet, the mystery continues to unfold the longer we are together, and I might have found something even more valuable than the antique. ----- Eyes bright, she reaches out towards me as though time has stopped. Out of this world's beauty, I will always be captivated by her aura. As we attempt to hold hands only to pass through one another once more. Somehow my lips entertain my thoughts as she quickly disappears, "What are you?" Silence, but I know I am not alone. "Knowing what I am would make this so much easier for us both, would it not? Yet, I haven't a clue. I still can not comprehend how, after all this time, you can see me." Her flustered voice trailing towards the next room leaves me alone with my thoughts as I reveal my best-kept secret, "I guess I'm just lucky." All rights reserved.
