Chapter 21: Matter into her own hands

The branch falling off the tree was no accident. Hiding in that tree, the ones who actually cut off the branch was Lock and Barrel, they high-five each other for the work they had just did. Shock had asked both of them to spy on Miranda making sure she didn't get that kiss. Shock was able to see everything they did from her crystal ball.

"Good work boys! Oh that was close, too close!" She grunted with frustration and walked over to her potion cabinet. "Oh that little tramp, she'll be kissing him by sunset, well it's time Shock put matter into her own hands!" She grabbed all her ingredients and trough them into her black cauldron.

"Skellington's daughter will be mine! And I'll make him pay!" She laughed manically as she transformed herself into a beautiful human girl.

Chapter 21 Part 2:

Cody couldn't sleep. He couldn't get his mind off Miranda. He couldn't believe he almost tried to kiss her. He smiled at that thought. He tossed and turned some more until he just got out of bed. He pulled on a shirt and walked outside. It was dark and quiet, but Cody didn't mind it. He just leaned onto the tree and looked at the stars, they shined bright. Reminded him of Miranda's eyes. He couldn't help but smile. Could he be in love in such short time? Is this really possible.

"This is crazy," He said to himself, "This is something that only happens in movies," But he couldn't deny it, those feelings were there and he'll have to tell Miranda sooner or later. He just hopes she feels the same otherwise he'll feel awful and embarrassed if she doesn't. Cody was about to go inside when he saw a figure walk right past him. It kind of scarred him, so he walked a bit faster, but the figure stood in front of him causing Cody to fall back, scarring the hell out of him. It was a woman, a young girl around his age. The girl kneeled down and a light shined in her face. She was beautiful, she had long light brown hair, brown eyes, and tanned skin. Cody shooked his head, but before he was able to say anything to her and yellow smoke-like light came out of the girl's eyes and into his eyes causing them to change into a greenish-yellow color. The girl laughed softly.

Don't worry this girl will have a name. It'll appear in the next chapter. Almost done! (:
