Hi. This is my new story. Hope you enjoy it! Please R and R!


Chapter 1:

"Uh! You are doing it all wrong!" my mother shouted at me, sounding like a strained dog being squished to death.

"How am I?!" I shouted back with every drop of power in my voice. "Fire is streaming out of my fingers so how is that wrong?!"

My mother sighed, sounding like she had giver up on me once again. I instantly felt the familiar pang of guilt that always followed after she sighed like that. "Your movements don't flow as they should to make the preformance worth watching Nikita...you're opening the ritual for the harvest season...you must make this perfect! Continue to practice while I go make us some Chamomile tea..." She said sounding defeated and she left. Once I heard her footsteps leave the hallway, leading to our circle room which I was in at the moment, I started to practice with flawless movements and not a mistake with anything.

Our circle room was gorgeous, on one wall of the room were hundreds of crystals, laid oout on glass shelves. The crystals varied from quartz to coniac diamond. On another wall there was another stack of shelves but these were wooden that held hundreds of books. I sighed as I continued to difficult rutine. My mother thought I was a powerless failure of a daughter. She had no idea what I could do. When i was eight, I was fed up with being tested and trained so I bound my powers so only I could bring them back. My plan didn't work as I had hoped. My powers may be bound but my mother still pushes me too hard. So this is where I unbind my powers. I gently cast out my senses to check where my mother was. She was in the kitchen, crying. I sigh and quickly run over to the glass shelves and grab a mystic topaz crystal. I press it into my hand and mutter the unbinding spell as I draw runes and sigils in the air. As I start to finish the spell I smile brightly for the first time in years. I feel my awakened power as I stretch. I stand once again and I quickly return the crystal to it's place. I begin to start practicing the spell again and now that I am once again at my full power, the rutine is simple.

I hear my mothers gasp of joy at the perfection of my flawless dance as fire pours out of my fingers. I straighten once I finish and look at my mother's face. She leans down to plaze the tea cups onto the ground before running up to me and hugging me tightly. I didn't return the hug out of pure shock. I was frozen. She hadn't hugged me in so long...no one did so this one hug left me unmoving. She steps back smiling. " That was flawless my dear! Now it is time to get ready...This is your first harvest festival since your initiation so we must make it special. Come, now and let's get you into the bath." She says warmly and takes my hand, leading me to the bathroom. My eyes examine the water. I take a deep breath before I decide it is safe to step into. I slowly peel off my witches robe and lower myself down into the steamy heaven. I sigh with relief as my muscles slowly relaxed and stopped their aching. The past few days I had been feeling like an old lady with the pains in my bones. I sink deeper into the water and let myself completely relax, enjoying my well deserved break.
