I woke with a jolt. My head throbbed from hitting the the window of the bus so hard. I let out a long sigh. I've been sitting in the same position for almost three hours. My parents were expecting me to have arrived by now! The plane from Michigan to Washington was already long as hell because of the delay, now we're stuck in traffic. Yeah, no. I just want to get to the stupid house, start my friggin journey, then go back home...
I pulled out my rune stones and whispered a simple prayer into them. They emitted a small light and suddenly, the way was clear. The supposed extra hour and a half to Forks was recalculated to forty five minutes. By Wiccan law, I'm not allowed to use magic for selfish reasons...but yo..the Goddess will forgive me for this one because this trip is so looongg! I just want to get there before I turn forty!
I took a taxi from the bus stop to where my new home for the next year and two months was located. It's two in the morning now and the driver is finally pulling up to a small house that's in between these two other houses. There was a small path leading up to the front door. I paid the cab driver and walked inside. The floor was wooden and it was only one floor. It has two rooms besides the living room and the bathroom. I chose the one at the end of the hall. It was the smaller room, but it would do. For sleeping purposes and such. The other, I can use better for my daily rituals and prayers to the Goddess. I unpacked the boxes with my candles and altar things to get them ready for day break. I sent my mother a quick text, letting her know I arrived safely, before settling in for the rest of the night..or early.. morning...whatever.
For those of you who hasn't guessed it yet, I'm a witch. An eighth generation witch to be exact. I was born as Jane Greine on December 22, 1991 under a full moon. For fifteen years, I trained under my mother at home. She taught me all I know about being a Wiccan, the path she chose. I'm sixteen now and it's traditional for a young witch to leave home for a year in order to discover the kind of witch she aught to be. The night before we leave, we go on a vision quest that will help us to determine the path we should take to begin our journey. Mine led me to this small town, where it rains. Well..actually it took me to the next town over, but I hate the beach so...
Besides, what could possibly be there for me?
That was the first chapter! Hope it was loved! See y'all next week!
