Trapped in the Coven Chapter 3

"Waaaaahhhhh!" Someone shouted as they fell to the ground outside the Robichaux Academy. A figure with long dark hair slowly got up off the grass and stood up. She turned around, revealing who she was: Kate.

Kate looked around and stumbled on to the fence of the academy. She peeked through the gate and saw the large sign. "Coven." She said.
She slowly walked down the front porch.

Back in the house, Nan looked confused. She heard a new voice with familiar ramblings.

Nan left her room and went over to Amy's, who was still sleeping. "Amy." She called. "Amy!"

"Huh?" Amy leaned her head up from her bed. She rubbed her eyes.

"I think one of your friends are here." Nan said. "I heard her mention your name."

Amy slowly sat up. "What?"

"If you would stop staying up all night watching TV, you would be awake enough to hear me." Nan said. She leaned closer to her ear. "Your friend is here! Outside!"

Amy quickly got out of her bed and ran out of her room. She darted down the stairs and across the academy. Amy opened the front door wide.

"Amy?" Kate asked. She was on the front porch, about to knock on the door.

"Kate!" Amy screamed. She quickly wrapped her arms around her. "I was wondering if you were ever gonna show up."

Kate held her back. "How long have you been here?"

"Three episodes." Amy said as she let go.

"Is anyone else here?" Kate asked.

Amy shook her head. "Did you know that Chester drowned me?"

"Yes." Kate said. "Dandy got me."

"Harry and Hannah?"

"I don't know. I died after Suzi. He didn't even get to their camper yet. But at least we're finally in the coven." Kate said.

"Luke's not here either." Amy said. "Not your Luke. If we are showing up in order from out deaths in freak show..."

Kate folded her arms. "Maybe it's for the best he's not here yet."

Amy glared her eyes. "Kate, I know you two had a fight. We were all pissed at him, but if he's not here, where is he? He can't not be here."

Kate narrowed her eyes. "Maybe Kyle already killed him."

"They didn't even meet Kyle when I showed up."

Kate sighed and glanced inside the house. Cordelia was standing at the end of the hallway. Nan was peeking over too. "I think the witches want to meet me. Do our powers work here?"

"I have powers." Amy said. "Maybe not the same powers but it's something." She snapped her fingers and a small flame ignited on her fingertip.

Kate entered the academy and shook hands with Cordelia. "Hi, I'm Kate."

"Nice to meet you Kate. I'm Cordelia." She shook her hand with both her hands. "Welcome to our coven."

"Wait she has powers too?" Zoey asked from across the room.

"I can sense it." Cordelia said. "Do you have any luggage with you?"

Kate shook her head.

"I'll show you your room-" Cordelia said.

"I can do that." Amy said. "We'll share a room." She grabbed Kate's arms and started to pull her upstairs.

"Sure you don't want to save that for Hannah?" Kate mumbled.

"Just come on." Amy said as she pulled her up the stairs.

"My power is back!" Kate announced when they entered their room.

"How do you know?" Amy asked. She folded her arms.

"Because I could sense everyone's fears. Zoey is scared that Madison is hurt or dead. Cordelia is scared that she'll never have a child-" Kate said.

"Yeah I know that too. So does anyone who has watched the show." Amy said.

"I can also tell you were so paranoid about being left alone here." Kate said.

"Can you sense anyone else around here?" Amy asked.

Kate tilted her head and turned to see the TV. "Oh my God television! In color." She went up to the TV.

"I know. I've been binge rewatching Once Upon a Time. You know, I can imitate Regina's fireball." Amy told her.

Kate raised her eyebrow. "Huh." Kate shrugged and turned the TV on. "Does that mean we could recreate the dark curse from Once Upon a Time?"

"I think that is impossible, even here." Amy said.

About an hour later, Zoey and Nan came into Kate and Amy's room.

"Has anyone seen or heard from Madison since last night?" Zoey asked.

"No." Amy said. She paused the TV.

"I can't hear her anymore." Nan said.

"Could she just be like at a Starbucks or something?" Kate asked.

"She went to lunch with Fiona yesterday. Madison developed pyrokenisis. She was getting stronger. They spent the whole day together. Now Madison is missing." Zoey said.

"You really think Madison is the next supreme because she can start a fire?" Amy asked. "So what? There are seven wonders. Mastering two of the seven is nothing."

"No one else has been able to conjure up a fire." Nan said.

Zoey looked at Amy. "Maybe we are overreacting." Zoey said.

Nan and Zoey left their room.

The second they left, Kate grabbed the remote and pressed play.

Amy tilted her head at Kate. "Are we not going to talk about it?"

"What? Madison is dead. What can we do?" Kate said. "And I went so long without high definition television. So shhh!"

Amy leaned back and watched the show quietly.

The Witch Council showed up later that night in regards to Madison's disappearance. Cordelia and Fiona were questioned about Madison.

Kate and Amy stayed up in their room during the council's visit.

Kate stood staring at the floor. She inhaled and asked, "Do you think we can die in this world? I mean witches can bring back the dead."

"I'm not sure how it works for us." Amy said. "Maybe our souls disappear like what happens to Misty."

"Maybe we can save her." Kate said. "She was always my favorite from coven and I was so sad that she dies a horrific death, trapped in an eternal Hell."

"Hopefully when we die in this world, they can find our bodies. So many things can go wrong."

Kate turned around and faces Amy. "Well thanks for that awful image in my head."

"We really need to watch our thoughts around Nan." Amy realized. "We know everything that's going to happen."

"I controlled my thoughts just fine when Nan came asking questions about Madison. I didn't think about how she's really dead. How Fiona-"

"Shush." Amy said quickly.

"Oh who's gonna hear is up here?" Kate asked. She put her hands on her hips.

Amy paused for a moment. She looked over at her books on her desk. "Maybe there's a spell we can do to block our minds from her." She picked up a book and flipped through the pages.

Kate sat on the bed and grabbed the TV remote.

"You know, you should be practicing your magic." Amy said.

"What for?" Kate said. "I'm not the next supreme."

Amy closed the book. "This is the one place that we can have multiple powers. We can move things with our mind. Control people, ignite flames- I can levitate."

Kate looked at Amy seriously. "Really?" She put the remote down.

Amy nodded. "Yeah. Not every witch can do that. Maybe you'll have a special power too."

"On top of sensing fears?"

"Sure. Why not?" Amy shrugged.

Kate got up and picked up a good. "Then we should get started."

A few days later, it was Halloween. Amy wanted to dress up but Fiona wouldn't allow it.

"Why would you want to dress up as a witch when you are one 365 days out of the year?" Fiona asked in her chair in the kitchen. She took a whiff of her cigarette.

"I don't want to dress up as a witch. I want to dress up as a princess. Or a fairy." Amy said.

"We don't do that sort of thing." Fiona said. She blew the cigarette smoke out of her mouth.

"Why not?" Amy asked.

"Don't you know your history?" Fiona asked.

Cordelia walked into the kitchen. "Amy, if a witch were to dress up as anything other than a witch, she would become that thing."

"Cool." Amy said.

"No," Fiona said firmly. "The process is irreversible. Being a fairy is not fun. They are tiny and get squashed easily." She slapped her hands together when she said "squashed."

Amy flinched and leaned back.

Later that night, real zombies appeared outside of the academy.
