31 Nights of Frights
Halloween Moon

Her spell had back-fired big time this time. Shocker. Ever since her mother had taken her body over sophomore year, Amy Madison's power had been out of whack. Like the rat spell, and spells that had come after that that hadn't gone according to plan. When a simple concealment spell went wrong, she'd ended up in a really weird place. It was familiar, but very eerie and alien. She soon found out why.

The spell ended up draining her of almost all of her power, and it took her almost a year to build it back up. The reason? The spell had sent her through time and space, about five hundred years into the future and to a completely different planet. No one would come looking for her - which had been part of the concealment spell she'd been trying to do. And without any magic dealers to boost her power, she had no way of getting herself back to earth and her time zone. Of course, she needed the Samhain moon to be at her peak. Which was hard to come by, because, hello, these moons were different than her moon.

So she needed to get off the world she was in, and try to get somewhere near Earth's moon. What she needed was a ride with an idiot. And Malcolm Reynolds seemed like just the touch she needed.
