Chapter 1

Ashlyn was sitting on the edge of bed in her room reading one of her favorite books Magick among us she wore her liquorice black hair back into a side ponytail her outfit was as follows : pink shirt with mesh sleeves, Hami-down flared jeans with splashes of paint and rhinestones all over them. She had her own classy style by the looks of it (her mom being a fashion designer every kid would die to have). You take one glance at the small attic shared bedroom with her bigger sister, Vanessa, and you'd know she lived in a poorly taken care of home if it wasn't for the bedroom being the size of a big closet or having to live in the attic with bugs then you'd see the mess in their room clothes were everywhere (some been their for as little as a month the a year) they didn't have anything half way decent. The only decent thing they had in that room would be the old worn in bed that felt as about to collapse if sat on. Her and her sister would take turns sleeping on the bed. By the looks of things you would probably rather live in a shack then here. Ashlyn finally looked up from her worn book to here sound coming up the stairs her dad had built and voices. She stood up ready to leave but not wanting to open the door unless the person outside opened first so she stood. Her sister finally burst in with her boyfriend, Jason, giving Ashlyn a flick of her hand telling her she noticed her there so leave and she obeyed leaving the room and Vanessa shut the door with her foot while still making out with Jason on the floor. Ashlyn sighed thinking of the days when her 15 year old sister would rather spend time with her then making out with boys her still being 14 and not old enough to date she didn't understand where the fun was in making out with boys. She made her way down the stairs to the 2nd floor where her three brothers, Alex, Nick, and Brent, shared one big room taking up the whole floor she heard Alexa inside the room playing with his stuffed animals, being only 3, he would still make them talk out loud. She also heard Nick inside telling Alex to go stuff himself and see if he could talk. Nick was a year younger then herself and she liked hanging with him sometimes but he would prefer to hang out with his buddy's and go dirt bike riding then be with her he was a bit of a pussy trying to act though but she could still bring him down and she knew it. Brent, not being in that room at the time, had probably gotten drunk the night before and stayed the night at a friends house so that mom wouldn't see him drunk but she always gets on him and he never gets by with it, him being still 17 and not allowed to drink yet mom always got down his throat when he wanted to go out, he was not a family type of guy. Still hearing Nick and Alex yelling at each other she decided to go so she walked downstairs and over to her mom's room to see if Anna was awake yet. Anna was her littlest sister, just being born 4 months ago, she wanted to call her 'tiny' because when she was born she was the tiniest baby she'd ever seen but her mom wanted her named Anna insisting that she wouldn't be tiny all her life. She tiptoed in the room looking over at the crib, as she thought, she was still in a little ball eyes all scrunched up and asleep. She looked around the room for her mother who wasn't there she came out of the room smelling the fresh scent of lunch hot dogs cooking her favorite food.

"Mom?" She let out before she turned into the kitchen and saw her mom cooking.

"Yes, whom else cooks for this family?" She replied turning around looking at Ashlyn with a grin on her face. Ashlyn smiled and sat down ready to eat even though lunch was not nearly done yet. "Your reading that book again? How many times have you read that now? 114? 234?" She said pointing at the book smiling again.

"No mom it's only been 'round ten. It's a really good book!" She defended reeling the book back toward her opening it to the page she had left off on and lifted the one page up to show her mom. "Mom can I go here? I really want to! It someplace I'd fit in. PLEASE mom! PLEASE!" Begged Ashlyn in her I'm-so-special voice.

"Well I'd have to look into it first Ashlyn but you know I home school you on that subject. Why do you want to go to a school for it?" She said trying to brush it off to a different subject then getting up and checked on her food and came back and sat down. She say the look on her daughters face of happiness "Ashlyn I'm not saying yes. Your not going to that school Alright? You've been home schooled by me for your powers all your life. Why do you want to go to this school?"

"But Mom! I REALLY want to go! Vanessa could care less on how she uses HER powers but for herself only and I'm sure Anna would love to come if she's like me she'd want to use her powers! I want to meet people like me! I want to DATE people like me!" She was by now putting on her Mommy-I-love-you-but-I-really-want-to-go look.

"Ok, I'll look into it ok? I'm not saying yes or no-

"So it's a maybe? Yay! Thanks mom!" She hugged her mom and left her book with her mom to see into and she ran up stairs to get everyone for dinner. She ran upstairs not realizing how hard she pounded her feet walking up and she woke up Anna-Marie but she didn't care she got mom's almost a yes 'Maybe'. She saw Jason coming down the stairs and knew Vanessa was in her room laying on the bed going 'oh... god... wow' which she found very funny to watch. She ran up to her room and burst threw the door and screeched and jumped up and down. Vanessa stood up and held her shoulders hard and tight so she couldn't jump.

"Talk Sonar!"She yelled over her screeches. She called Ashlyn sonar when she was screeching like crazy.

"Mom said yes!"She said in one screech.

"Said yes for WHAT exactly?" She responded to her screech with one eyebrow raised up in a position that said 'you need to explain' in her own little way. Ashlyn always liked that about her sister she was always open and honest with her on what she felt.

"Well...she...uh um... Well she said maybe which sort of means yes Right? But you know that school that I've been begging mom to go to ... You remember right?" Ashlyn studdered out worried about mom saying no now that she thought about it.

"That freak school? Mom teaches us better then they ever could. Come on you know that!" Vanessa said.

"It's not a freak school! It's for people like us and BOYFRIENDS like us too!" She replied defensively. Vanessa just crossed her arms and let out a sigh but shook her head. "Come on Vanessa! All you have to do is go for a month or two just to show mom I can go! She trusts you to make your own opinion! Please..."

"Oh alright! BUT ONLY for a month got it?" She declared finally giving in.

"Oh! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" She hugged her sister and ran down the stairs to her mom."Mom! Vanessa said she'd go!"

"And I am going to let you go just because your older sister is going?" She was carrying Anna around the kitchen while trying to stop her from grabbing stuff she was cooking dinner.

"Please mom! I'm begging you please!" She said taking Anna from her mother so her mom could at least look her in the eye for a second. Her mom turned around and stared at her with her hands on her hips her lips pursed.

"Ok I guess it could hurt to get you girls a load off my back for a little while. When do you start up?" she asked looking stern but Ashlyn hoped she wasn't.

"The 1st of September! And I'll be in the 5th year! I'm so excited! I have to go pack! And we need to go to Diagon Alley and buy me stuff for school! Ok well I'll go pack then we can do that!" She ran upstairs and into her bedroom where her sister was already packing and she just knelt beside her and started packing clothes for her self. She was so excited about the new school she was going to it didn't even occur to her how she was going to get there.
