Asylum

"It's the Asylum. They send those they deem crazy here. Most of us are normal. They're keeping us in here for eating disorders, homosexuality, nymphomania; of course some people are actually bat shit crazy. Imagining they're witches, that they have power. It's a nice mix. We're like the misfits. Those people that no one likes, all grouped together in one little home. We're family."

A/N: Next chapter will be longer, I promise :) this is basically a kind of set up chapter for future plot points.

"You could be the next Supreme. We all know I sure as hell wasn't a good one." Shelby laid down her cup onto the table. "Bring us out of the dark ages, bring us into a whole new generation."

"I don't know if I'm that powerful, honestly. It's just one or two powers." Brittany smiled slightly, covering it up with a flick of her hair.

"Oh, don't be so modest. I saw what you've been doing. You're powerful. Just let it go."

"Let what go?" Brittany brought one of her hands down to her lap, placing it on her left thigh.

"All your doubt. All your worries. Everything. Let your arrogance take over. It's what I did."

"But won't it completely change me?" Brittany rested her head on her shoulder, seemingly clueless at the effects.

"It might. But if you're powerful, it won't really affect you. You'll come into your own." Shelby raised one of her hands, and a gust of wind blew through the place. "Damn, I wish it would come back. You know, my special powers. That special power each Witch has. Ever since I became kinder, Oppression took over."

"I love Oppression."

"Do you even know what that is?"

"Coffee."

"You're gonna be heard to teach."

"I can't believe you need my powers again, Sue."

"Well, Quinn, you're pretty much the only Witch who has powers worth something. And I need an Apprentice."

Sue smiled up at her. "Can you help me bring just one person back to life?"

Quinn looked down for a second, before turning back up. "Who?"

"Just come here." Quinn walked over, standing behind Sue's seat.

"I don't see anyone here." Turning back around, Quinn felt a quick snap of her neck, and let herself slump to the floor.

"Sorry, Quinn. You knew too much." Sue picked up her thin body, and placed her in the cupboard. "Too bad the only person you can't bring back to life is yourself."
