Before you read this I just want you to know that I'm not the type of writer to write about characters that are already made up. All my stories are going to be OC. I'm sorry if you don't like it but that's just how I feel about writing. Well, any who I would be very grateful for reviews and if people seem to like this then I will continue writing the story. This is my first fan-fiction so tips would also be greatly appreciated, thanks :)

I looked up at the full moon, the murky clouds floating past it with the stars glimmering. I was walking down the street. It was dead silent, the wind slightly blew my long hair. I have a lot of pride in my hair, you don't see many girls with natural midnight violet hair, and my eyes matched in color perfectly. I blinked my eyes a few times as a shooting star dashed across the sky, I don't believe in wishes. A short gust of wind blew at my face, a few brown dead leaves blew against my skirt which waved in unison with the wind, I pulled down my black long sleeved shirt and I wrapped one arm across my breasts as I shivered, holding my purple and black witch hat with my other arm.

I turned down an alley to get out of the wind, and to get away from the annoying crackling leaves blowing down the road. It was a lot quieter in the alley. I continued to walk down the alley and I heard very faint footsteps coming up from behind me. I continued walking and sighed under my breath. Then a deep voice uttered from behind me.

"What's a pretty little teenage girl doing here at this hour?"

I groaned, and I turned around to look at him. He was wearing filthy looking rags, it looked like he was wearing some brown piss stained pillow case. I wasn't in the mood to deal with this, plus I can't be late for the meeting. I turned back around and started walking.

"Hey, how dare you turn away from me!" I continued to just keep walking.

"HEYY! Alright I tried to be nice about this but I guess were gonna have to do this the hard way." The man started to run at me, I didn't bother to turn around to look at him. I stopped walking and stood there with my back to the man running at me. I clapped my hands together and as I did this, a vine popped out of the ground and caught the man by his foot, tripping him to fall flat on his face. I turned around and looked at him on the ground and said in a firm voice.

"If you touch me, I'll kill you." The man just laughed after I said this. He stood up and walked toward me. He grabbed my shoulder and smirked a little bit. I put my finger tips together then put both of my hands on his wrist. Vines started to slide out of my sleeves and around his arm, then they wrapped around his neck and all of his limbs. I put my hands on his chest and the vines forced him back and slammed him against the brick wall of the alley. He was whimpering in fear and his eyes were wide open.

"I told you not to touch me." The vines around his neck tightened up and he started to make struggling and choking sounds. I dropped my arms and the vines dropped from my sleeves. I turned around and started to walk away from him. His struggling stopped and he went silent, then his body fell to the floor. I didn't bother to look back at him, I held back my arms and the vines around his body flew up into the air and slid back into my sleeves as I kept walking. I came to a dead end in the alley and stood there before a brick wall. I put my fore finger and my pinky on two different bricks in front of my face and muttered the words.

"Halloween in Salem." The wall started to shake a bit and then it receded into the ground. There were floating jack-o-lanterns above my head, glimmering in orange. There was a long hallway in front of me. I stepped into the hallway and as I did the brick wall behind me returned to its usual place. I followed the jack-o-lanterns down the hallway. There were a lot of twists and turns in the hallways, but only one hallway had the lanterns in them. Then I came to the last jack-o-lantern which was hovering above a door. I walked up to it and placed my hand on the door knob, but before I could open it, the door flung open and Kerrigan stood there, with her black lacy dress on and her witch hat, which was flopped over to the left side of her face.

"You're late," she said.

"I ran into a bit of trouble, plus I decided to walk."

"Why?"

"Because I like to go for walks, besides it makes me feel somewhat normal for a change."

"Just sit down," Kerrigan said annoyed, as she waved her hand at the table. I looked around Kerrigan to see 10 other people and a black cat sitting in chairs all around a table. Two seats were empty one next to the black cat and another seat which was at the head of the table. I took my seat in the chair next to the cat. The cat looked up at me with its large green eyes and it blinked a few times. Kerrigan then took her seat at the head of the table. Kerrigan pulled out a spiral notebook and opened it up and flipped through it. Everyone was silent, the only thing you could hear was the flipping of the pages and the slight purring of the cat I was sitting next to. We all just sat there as Kerrigan started ripping out pages from the notebook. I looked around at all the other witches. All of them were wearing dark colored dresses and skirts with long socks or stocking like I had. I looked down at my long purple socks that went up to my knees. They matched the color of my hair and eyes. That's why I liked them. Some of the witches wore more revealing clothes than I had. Showing their stomachs and showing of their cleavage. I could show off my cleavage if I wished too, I did have fairly sized breasts but I didn't see the point. Who would I show them off to?

I decided to break the silence. "Who's cat is this?" I looked around at the other witches and everyone was silent. I looked at the cat and then it morphed into a human. It was a guy, he was wearing a black sweatshirt and black sweat pants, he had his hood up. His sweat pants were rolled up to his knees and he wore black mid-calf socks and black sneakers. He put his hood down and looked at me. He couldn't have been any older than 18 years old. He was probably the closest in age to me compared to the rest of the people in here who were probably in their twenties and thirties, maybe even older than that.

"What the hell are you?" I asked. He looked at me with his deep green eyes, His long black hair slightly covering them with a thin layer of his bangs. He was actually a little cute.

"I'm just a cat.. a cat with higher developed abilities than most cats," he said calmly.

"Oh, yeah I've met somebody like you before, it was some woman."

"That was probably somebody that I'm related to, it runs in my family. By the way I'm Salem and you are?"

"Oh, Alicia, I'm a witch.. but you uhh.. probably already knew that," I stammered.

"Yeah I figured," Salem said coolly.

Well I blew that one, now I look like and idiot in front of the only guy that I actually thought looked cute. Kerrigan then stood up and spoke.

"Alright enough waiting around, I have papers here each with all of your names on it, each are folded and written on them will be the name of your partner which you will be doing this mission with, and there will also be names of other people in there, some information may be written next to their names. I will talk about the mission once everyone receives their paper."

Kerrigan passed down the folded over papers to the witch next to her, she took hers with her name on it and passed the others down. Once everyone received theirs, we all looked around for a second then opened them. My sheet read my partners name and a whole list of names underneath Salem's name. I looked down the line of names and I glanced over at Salem's paper. He had the same people as I did. I guess he's my partner. Kerrigan started to speak again.

"Ok so now that you all know who your partner is, everyone look at the names of the people on the list. Everyone has around ten people on their list. You will be collecting the souls of each of those people and bringing them to me."

The witch sitting directly across the table from me spoke up. "So what are we collecting the souls for exactly?"

"I was getting to that, thanks. So as you already know the population of witches around the world has dropped dramatically over the past few decades. The Witch Hunters Association has been doing very well in hunting many of us down. Our usual number of having 50 members in our organization has dropped to the twelve that are here right now, plus Salem who is not a witch obviously, but has chosen to side with us. So the souls we are collecting we are to feed to Diablo."

Everyone's mouth dropped after she said the name Diablo. Diablo is a giant demon snake. He is suppressed by a seal underneath our feet right now. I couldn't believe Kerrigan is planning on returning him his power. The last time Diablo was let loose, which was about a century ago according to legend at least. Nobody gained from it and he turned against the witches and did as he pleased. This caused massive destruction around the world until not only the witches but everyone around the world had to help suppress his power. Therefore he was sealed away in a cage. How the witches ended up with him again after they let him out in the first place, nobody really knows.

"Yes I understand what your thinking, letting Diablo loose is probably a terrible idea. However when he was sealed, all of his souls were revoked and set loose. Besides they fed him hundreds and maybe even thousands of souls back then. We only plan and giving him around 60. He should be a lot easier to control then."

"So what's the point of all of this?" Said the witch across from me again. Kerrigan gave her a death stare from being cut off by her again.

"Willow if you don't shut up I'll be sure to have your soul the first donated to Diablo," said Kerrigan firmly, still staring at her, not blinking once. Willow's eyes wavered down and she looked at the table twiddling her thumbs. Kerrigan broke her stare and began to speak again.

"So, the point of all of this is so people notice us, what we are going to do is grab the attention to other lone witches out there and not just only witches necessarily, we need as much support as we can get for The Organization. So everyone match up with your partners, and get to it. The partners that were assigned to you are set in stone so no switching, I evaluated all of your abilities and traits and fit you together with who would work best with who. Everything has been said and we start immediately."

Everyone stood up from their chair and Kerrigan walked over to the wall and tapped multiple bricks in a certain order and whispered something. The ceiling then slowly dissipated like it was a pill quickly dissolving in water. The full moon was bright and shined down on us. The witches started to summon their brooms. Some flew over to them some appeared right before them and some came from the ground. I snapped my fingers and a small tree busted out of the ground with my broom entangled in the leaves. I gripped my broom and the tree slid back into the ground and the floor mended back together. All the witches have flown out of the room except for me and Salem now. I looked at him and said.

"So I guess we're partners."

"Yeah so now what do you suppose we do?"

"Well firstly I'm gonna sleep."

"Ok I'll take you home."

"I'm flying."

"I know." Just after he said I know he opened up his fingers with his right hand with his palm facing up, his palm glowed orange and a small orb formed there, then there was a small pop and a jack-o-lantern was floating above his hand. He must have been the one to make the jack-o-lanterns to follow in the hallways when I arrived here. He placed the small pumpkin on the floor and it grew to a large size, about the size of an exercise ball. He then sat on the jack-o-lantern and crossed his legs placing one hand on the stem and he floated upward. I then took my broom and hopped on it. I sat on my broom sideways, as if I was sitting in a chair. I then floated up level with Salem.

"Follow me," I said. I then rushed passed him, flying over the town. I looked at all the houses, some of their lights were on. Salem caught up to me and was flying next to me. I was facing him and he was facing me. I broke the stare by looking up at the stars. We then flew out of the town and we were beyond the outskirts. My black skirt waving as I flew through the air. I then wizzed downward and I came to a small lone graveyard and landed in the middle. The fields around me glimmered as moonlight hit the dew on the grass. The light of the town was glowing slightly from a distance. I set my broom down on the ground and vines popped up and took it down into the earth. Salem then landed next to me, and his jack-o-lantern poofed away with a puff of smoke.

"Why did we stop here?" Salem asked.

"This is where I live."

"You live in an old creepy looking graveyard?"

"No this isn't a real graveyard, it's just a disguise to keep people away." I walked over to a stone coffin, which was placed in front of a head stone that was too worn away to read what it said. I pushed back the lid of the coffin and I looked down into it. There was a stair case that lead down into the ground.

"See, pretty well hidden huh?" Salem just looked down into the coffin.

"Yeah it is, it's a little dark though, don't you ever trip going down the stair case?"

"No, I guess I'm used to it, I've lived in here my whole life."

"Oh ok, I usually find someplace to stay and sneak in, in my cat form."

"Well you can come in if you want. Its kinda boring though."

"Ok I have no place else to stay." I stepped over the side of the coffin and started to walk down the stairs. Salem came in after me and after he entered the staircase the lid of the coffin slid itself shut causing the staircase to go pitch black. You could only see the light at the bottom of the stairs. I walked down the stairs with ease but Salem had to use one of his jack-o-lanterns for light on his way down.

That's it for this chapter, well I hoped you liked it. Please review it and if anyone has any tips or suggestions I would love to hear them. Thank you
