Chapter 2
"Grandma, I'm home." The young women entered her grandmother's manor.
"Your late. Is everything ok?" The elderly women shouted from the kitchen. The manor was a large home that had grand oak doors with a brass handles. The foyer had a beautiful wooden floor, which was covered by a red oriental rug with blue trim. On the right, there was a large living room that was finely decorated with a dark leather couch and a wooden rocking chair. The side tables emulated the wood that composed most of the house. All of the walls were covered in an off-white paint and wooden trim along the edge. On the left, was a grand dining room with an oak table, brass chandelier, and another oriental rug. There were two large windows that were covered in a dark red material that matched the rug. Off to the side was a modern kitchen but it was covered with oak paneling and a white tile floor. As Corina entered the house, she placed her car keys on the wooden table by the door and ran upstairs as she answered her grandmother.
"Yes, everything is ok. I just had to file out more paperwork. I'm so tired of this constant paperwork but that is the life of a teacher."
"Oh, that's good. Come and eat some dinner. Are you going out tonight?"
"No, I have some lesson plans to do among others things. If I do go out I will not be back late. I have work tomorrow. What are we having?" Corina entered the kitchen in her gray sweatpants and dark green tank top as she finished her question.
"Oh, that's nice. We are having roast beef and salad for dinner. Are you enjoying your new job?" The women turned her head to look at her granddaughter. She was woman in her mid-sixties with gray hair that had once been a colorful red. While she was of an advance age, her face was hardly marred by wrinkles or signs of old age. She wore a fashionable blouse and pants set with an apron as she cooked.
"Yes, I am. I truly cannot wait to work with the children even if we are close in age. It should be interesting considering there are a few students in the school that I already know. Grandma, sit down and I'll finish up dinner."
"No, just set-up the table. What are you trying to do? Make me into an old woman. What do you mean by "already know?" You haven't been in Bayville since you graduated five years ago. You can't remember anyone from back then."
Corina began to place the plates and setting on the table as she smirked at her grandmother. "You are right, I don't remember anyone from back then but from a more recent event. The girls I ran into the other night are in my poetry class. It is just amusing."
"Corina, you need to be more careful about stuff like that. What would happen if someone recognized you? You are not just a simple mutant, you have responsibilities and you are the only one who can fulfill them. I just don't want anything to happen to you."
"Grandma, I'll be fine. They were petty thugs who attacked those girls. While I think they had a motive for their actions, they were no match for me. I know I'm not an ordinary mutant or human for that matter. Nothing will happen to me. I've been trained by the best and I will always take my responsibilities seriously. I'm trained in the use of all my powers. I have had full control of my witch powers even before I received my mutant abilities when I was thirteen. I know my position in the coven and what I will become. Don't worry, have faith in me and trust my abilities."
"I just cannot stand the idea that something could happen to you. What would we do then? There would be no one to carry out your duties. You are so gifted with your blessings to have a touch of your mother and your father. That is so rare. Just promise me, that you are going to be more careful from now on." The elderly woman grasped her granddaughters had and looked into her eyes with a maternal protection.
"Grandma, I promise I'll be more careful about getting involved in certain matters but you must have some faith in me."
"I do but I just can't stand the idea that anything might happen to you."
"I know. I know." Before the conversation could continue, however, the two turned around and saw that the Siamese cat, Kira, had grabbed a piece of roast beef and ran away with it.
"Kira I only put up with you because you are my familiar. Now give that back." The young student called out playfully as she chased after her beloved cat.
