~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kamryn was sitting alone in her room, staring into her Seeing Stone. Her stone was a large emerald, her parents had baught her for her Initiation. She was 15 and was to be initiated in 2 weeks. As she stared into the seeing stone, she saw a shadow start to get sharper and sharper. It was of a boy standing alone at the side yard of a house, why did that house seem so fermiliar? The boy was tall with brownish black hair and dark brown eyes. The image faded.

"Zayden come over here and help us unpack!" Kamryn heard the voice of a woman out her window.

"Im comming Im comming!" came the voice of a boy about her age.

Kam looked out the window to see a new family moving in next door. Thats why it was so fermiliar, the house that had been up for sale, since the Lancaster family had moved away, afraid to live next to witches. Suddenly Kam noticed the boy, the same boy she had seen in her Seeing Stone. He looked even better in real life, even tho she was looking at him from some 20 feet away, and 2 stories up. Her sight was cunning, she had gotten it from her parents...Nathaniel and Lyndzie. As she looked down again, she noticed the boy staring back at her. She decided to go down and say hi. She walked down yard, and introduced herself. She walked up to the family of three.

"Hi, My name is Kamryn...Kam...O'Rylie...I live next door." She said, not really knowing what else to say.

The man spoke first.

"Hello Kam, my name is Xander Nehemia, and this is my wife Skylar, and our sun Zayden." The man said nicely.

"We just moved here from Salem Massachusets." this time it was Zayden who spoke.

"Wow, Ive alwayz wanted to go there." Kam said almost letting it slip that she was a Wiccan. "Hey do you want to come over for a snack?...my parents arent home tho, there at the store."

Zayden looked at his mom with a pleading look on his face. He wanted to make some friends.

"Oh all right...just be home by dinner" Mrs. Nehemia said.

"Dont worry...Ill have him home by dinner time Mrs. Nehemia" Kam said akwardly.

"Call me Skylar" Skylar said as they walked away toward Kam's house.

As Kam opened the front door, Zayden asked, "So, you've always wanted to go to Salem?" Making it seem like it was odd to ever want to go there.

"Yeah" Kam said as she opened the door to her room and walked in, with Zayden by her side. Oh crap! she thaught, I left my Seeing Stone out... She was about to pick up the Seeing Stone, but wasnt quick enough, Zayden grabed it off her alter and examined it.

"You have an emerald Seeing Stone?" he asked with out thinking.

"yeah, I got it for....wait how do you know its a Seeing Stone?!" Kam asked bewildered.

Zayden looked at his feet a little embarrassed. Then a thaught came to his head... Is Kamryn O'Rylie a Wiccan? Could my first new friend, be like me?... he snapped out of his thaught, as Kam looked at him with a weird look. She looked away from him pulling her dark brown hair with its scarlet streaks into a pony tail. He looked at her. As she did this her shirt came up just enough to see something, like a birth mark, on the bottom of her back...the Woodbane Athame. She turned around and looked at him.

"What?" she asked putting her arms down, her shirt covering the athame. She turned away to find something. She was just about to turn around when Zayden placed a hand on her shoulder. As she turned around, he turned his back, and placed a finger on the base of his neck. He moved his finger and revealed the same mark, she had on her back.

"You-you-your a Wiccan?" she studdered as she asked the question. He just shook his head solumly. As he shook his head, she sat down on the edge of her bed. "Wow...this is an odd surprise."

"Uh...yea" Zayden said as he looked at his feet once again.

"Um...do you want to sit down?" she said patting the spot next to her on the bed wondering why all of a sudden she had become so shy.

"Sure" he said as he sat down. He looked at her and smiled. His smile made her melt. All of a sudden a saying popped into her head, mùirn beatha dàn. Little did she know, at that exact same moment, the same saying had popped into Zayden's head.
