Chapter 7:

As I was walking to my room, I saw Eyore. He ran towards me and it looked like he was going to punch me!

"Wait!" I put out my hands. "I come in peace. I'm just walking to my room." He still looked like he was going to punch me! To the rescue, my instructor came by my side. He whispered:

"Do what you think you have to do!" Well, that's helpful. I was trying to think, then time seemed to freeze. My instructor and Eyore froze. Did I do that with my magic? I guess I did! God I miss my aunts! Wiat a second...magic! I was sent here to use my magic! That's how Im supposed to get out of here! Now which spell...dang it I forgot my magic book! Wait, who says dang it anymore? Southerners? Anyway...spells...spells...oh! Got it.

"Imagnus tagnus!" Everything unfroze. Eyore was coming at me. "BACKNOS TAKOS!" Suddenly, Eyore flew back and hit himself on the steps. My instructor smiled at me.

"And...you passed your first test."

"There's more?" I stared at him in agony. That was a powerful spell and I was feeling weak. Mr. Cahill nodded.

"But you have a break. Go to your room." I climbed the stairs. When I got to my room, Candy was on her bed. I closed the door.

"Hey Candy!" I saw what she was eating on her bed. Of course! It was candy! "What's going on?" Obviously, Candy chose the bed closer to the window seat. Shit, I hate getting to my room last. I wanted the bed near the window.

"Oh not much," Candy sighed. "Sabrina, do you think I'm pretty?" I sat down next to her. Is this another test?

"Of course I do Candy!" I took her hand. "But what I think doesn't really matter. It's all you."

"B-b-but what if-?" Candy started crying. "W-w-what i-i-if yo-y-you-y-you're ju-j-j-just...lyyyyyying?"

"I'm not okay? I would never lie about something like that."

"Honest?" Candy confirmed.

"Honest," I made sure she knew that. Then the room went silent. If she stopped eating candy, she would be prettier. But ya know, I guess it's her trait or something. But can't you change? Are you stuck with your trait for the rest of your life? Thank God Sabrina doesn't mena a specfici trait. Or does it? "Ha! Traits." Oops! I didn't mean to say that out loud!

"Hm?" Candy looked at me. "Whatcha say?"

"Oh...nothing!" I made a fake smile. "Nothing."

"You said something."

"Okay I just said, 'ha! Traits.' That's it."

"Yeah but that has a deeper meaning than it seems," Candy said indignantly. Wow, I really offended her.

"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean-!"

"It's too late. You don't think I'm pretty? You ain't that pretty either sister!" Oh great, another cat fight. Candy stood. I stood too.

"Wait Candy I don't want to fight-!"

"NO YOU KNOW WHAT? WE'RE FIGHTING...with magic!"

"Magic?" I gulped. I have strength because I work out. I don't have strength in magic! HELP! "Really?"

"Really, bitch." Oh now it's on! Wait, why am I saying this in my head and not outloud? I should change that.

"OH NOW IT'S ON!" We both took out our wands.

"AWANUS ALLUS!" Candy screamed. Suddenly, I ran for the desk and under the spell, I cut my hair.

"NO!" I shrieked. I looked in the mirror. "Oh she did not! Okay..." I turned back to face Candy.

"Your turn," She smirked.

"Alright...HACKDUS ALMUS!" Now that spell made Candy put gum in her hair. She went over to the desk where there was gum on it, and put some in her hair. Then she looked into the mirror.

"THIS IS EVEN WORSE THAN WHAT I DID! I-I-!" Then, Mr. Cahill came in. "WOAH I COULD HAVE BEEN CHANGING IN HERE INSTRUCTOR! KNOCK FIRST! JEEZ!"

"Calm down. And don't call me instructor. I'm Sabrina's instructor." Mr. Cahill undid my spell and Candy's spell on me. "You both passed your test! What did you learn?"

"That...anger gets in the way of friendship," I sighed.

"That Sabrina sucks!" Candy exclaimed. I gasped.

"Candy!" We both laughed about it though. "Oh and Mr. Cahill? I also learned that Candy sucks!" We laughed again. "Oops, sorry instructor." I looked donw.

"No, no, no! We encourage jokes around here," He smiled, "Especially from you." Was that a hit? Was he hiting on me?

"Uhhh great!" I shrugged awkwardly.

"Well you only have one more test and you're outta here!" Candy exclaimed. "Right Mr. Cahill?"

"Er...not exactly."

"But for my case, I just started and you said I only have one more test!" Candy complained.

"I want to keep her. She needs more training."

"Sir, my aunts taught me very well. They're waiting patiently for me to come home. Please!" I begged.

"Candy would you mind stepping out for a minute?"

"Um, sure!" Candy stepped out. Mr. Cahill and I were alone.
