The Little witch of Forks.
Bella's POV:
I was daubed freak when I entered Forks high school. Why was this? I guess because I was "EMO". I am not a depressed person. I simply love Hot Topic, dress in clothes that is not Abercrombie and Fitch or Hollister, and a witch. Yup. You got the last part right. I am a witch. I certainly do not:
Wear ugly black gowns and hats
Ride broomsticks
Am an ugly shade of green
I don't melt when water touches my skin (thanks to the Wizard of Oz, witches are a laughing stock in the mortal realm).
I can however read minds, use spells, and so many other things. Luckily, no one knows my secret of being a witch.
Forks has been my home for the last few years after my mom and Phil (a wizard from Chicago) moved somewhere in a magical realm. My dad Charlie lives with me in Forks so he can protect me from any dangers, including myself.
Getting back to my original statement, I am a freak. I really don't care either. I am your average looking girl who can do a few abnormal things. Unfortunately , I cannot play fight back with the scum-bags who I must call my class mates. I can only play a few simple tricks like ruin all the boys gym clothes by turning them pink, brainwashing a few girls I hate to get a green- Mohawk the day before pictures and to make sure deserts are spicy and bitter when served at lunch. Why can't I do anything else? My dad Charlie made sure I couldn't hurt them by putting a protection spell on them. Stupid over protective dad. But a spell can be like a firewall on a computer, you don't just ram through, you need to find a way around it; just like loop holes in a contract.
Well I always get in trouble no matter what kind of magic I do.
I woke up today feeling a like crap. No more jalapenos before bed. My ears started to pick something up. Something would happen today. I could feel it. I jumped out of bed and walked into my closet. Slowly my closet began to morph from a shrimpy closet to my magical bedroom. My magical bedroom is where I kept all my potions, ingredients, cauldron, healing crystals, and crystal ball. I can't sleep in their anymore because my nosy neighbors try to catch me doing something suspicious. Guess who that would be? Yup the devil Himself, Lauren.
I gazed into my crystal ball, but couldn't see so clearly. They were all so pale and inhumanly beautiful. Wait these were vampires. THAT'S WHY I CAN'T SEE THEM!!! Wait, they had gold eyes?!?!? WTF?! Vampires don't have gold eyes. O FCK! She saw me. The one with inky, spiky, short hair caught a glimpse of me. OMFG! What am I going to do? I need to hide. Escape. I asked Charlie if I could skip today. Nope. HUMAN education is 'important'. Since Charlie is a cop, playing hooky is not going to work.
I dressed in my Fall Out Boy band t-shirt, black skinny jeans, my favorite navy blue hoodie, and a touch of black eyeliner . I was ready to face the day. It was minimal emoness. I hoped this could stop the short vampire from recognizing me. I hoped so. I put my hair in a pale blue ribbon as a ponytail. I threw on my original black high top converse, with my sharpie stars (thanks to the boring lecture of cell reproduction a study I learned and remembered in seventh grade) in multiple colors.
I skipped breakfast and dashing into the black and red convertible. It originally was a really old truck from the 50s. Charlie let me change it into a nice hard-top convertible. I love magic.
I raced to school getting their in less than 5 minutes. School started in two minutes. I cranked up my iPod to full blast and started to sprint up the steps. Misery Business by Paramore, started to play on my red iPod nano. I got to the second verse before I saw an ugly plaid slip on shoot out in front of me. O crap.
I fell down hard. Mr. Banner and the rest of the class laughed their asses off while my head started to throb. I wanted to blow the whole school up. I hated them. I muttered the words to an explosion in Latin. Nothing happened. Then a heard a pop outside. A little firework had simply blown up as a prank. What an amateur.
Whose shoe had tripped me? The ugly plaid Roxy shoe belonged to Lauren, the devil himself. My head banged against the wooden desk. It hurt. It hurt not only my head but pride.
All of a sudden I saw a small ivory hand in my view. The girl with spiky hair had helped me up.
"I am so sorry about this…" she whispered into my ear.
"it's not like you saw this coming. It just happens…" I replied in a whispered
"Mr. Banner, may I please get Bella to the Nurse's office? I think she hit her head pretty hard," she stated kindly throwing a sympathetic look at me. I looked back gratefully.
"Fine. Just don't fall again Ms. Swan," he said to the two of us.
The small girl helped me up from the cold floor. Her skin was hard as ice. Yup, she had to be a vampire. There was no other explanation. BUT HER EYES!
We walked into the hallway. A short silence was inserted for a few minutes. The short girl started to talk to me then.
"Hi. I'm Alice. You must be Bella. I think I saw you this morning." Alice started.
"Yes. I know…" I trailed off.
After a few minutes of silence we started talking again.
"What are you, Alice? I know you're not human, that's for sure."
"I'm a vampire. I know you're no human." Alice replied.
"I am a witch. How can you be a vampire? Your eyes are gold?"
"We do not drink human blood, only animal blood."
"Oh. How did you see me then?"
"I can see into the future and can tell whoever is watching me. That's why I apologized about the Lauren tripping you thing. I saw it 10 minutes before you came in, and I didn't warn you."
"That's okay. It's not like you did that on purpose anyway."
"Umm… actually I sorta did. I had to find a way to talk to you. I'm so sorry. I can wipe-out the tripping incident from everybody's minds if you like. Then we could heal your bruise. I am so sorry."
"Oh. Yeah. Sure. No problem. That could be useful." I am a person who forgives easily. Of course I don't forgive those who aren't sorry, but whatever. "That's a really cute outfit. I could never where yellow, or pink," I complimented.
"Thanks! American eagle rocks. I am a shopping whore. I should make you come shopping sometime Bella."
"No thanks. I can't afford it."
"Who said anything about you buying anything? You and I are going to the closest mall here tomorrow [which was Friday. You are getting a makeover. Do you want to sit with my siblings and me during lunch?"
"I think I will take you up on that offer. But I don't recall vampires eating lunch, unless you plan to massacre the student body in the cafeteria."
"That sounds like fun but I think I will have to pass on the killings. You'll see."
She finally said as we reached the nurses office.
We walked into the small and cozy office to find Mrs. Dilbert, emailing something on the computer.
"Bella, my favorite patient! What happened this time dear?" she asked in a motherly tone.
"She was tripped by Lauren. She is a devil child." Alice answered before I could.
"That Lauren. My, oh my she is an evil child," Mrs. Dilbert agreed. "I'm sorry dear; I didn't quite catch your name."
"My name is Alice Cullen. My family and I just moved here yesterday."Alice replied
"Nice to meet you Alice. Welcome to Forks High. Here you go Bella." Mrs. Dilbert grabbed me an ice pack from the freezer.
I sighed. "Thanks Mrs. D"
"No problem. Nice meeting you Alice. Bye girls," Mrs. Dilbert said as we walked back to class.
We finally got back to class when the bell rang. I grabbed my bag and walked outside with Alice. I felt this new feeling that I had not felt in a while, I had a friend.
