~Chapter Six: Learning~

(Renee's POV)

I sat still on the floor of the living room, thinking back to what Selena had told me the other day. "Listen to me, Renee. You aren't like the wizards and witches in this world. You're magic doesn't need a wand." I frowned. "Then how do I perform magic?" I wondered aloud. I started thinking about every form of magic I'd ever seen. I got up and looked for a pencil and some paper.

I smiled when I found a spiral bound notebook and number two pencil, because there was no way in hell that I'd write with a quill and ink. I sat back down and started a list of movies, cartoons, tv shows and books that featured some form of magic. There was Bewitched, Hocus Pocus, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Charmed. The list went on and on. I cancelled out the ones that required wands to work, since Selena said I wouldn't be using one in our lessons.

I was more interested in the magic on shows like Sabrina, where the characters only sometime required words to perform magic. They mostly snapped their fingers or pointed to do a spell. But it got me thinking of the movie Matilda. Matilda technically wasn't magic, she was telekinetic. But a lot of aspects of magic do coincide with aspects of a thing called psychokinesis. They both can manipulate matter, require focus and concentration. I put down the list. "Maybe it is a case of mind over matter...and I wouldn't stand out too much because its similar to the magic people do here!" I giggled, excited.

Every form of magic required thought in some way, shape or form, and I'm great at thinking. 'I'll need to test it out first.' I thought. I looked down at my pencil, concentrating hard on it. 'Move.' I thought. It remained still. I continued to concentrate, not deterred by the pencil's stationary status. I didn't expect to be able to do it the first try. "Move." I said again, getting the same result. Ten minutes later, I felt irritated and started to glare at the writing utensil. 'Move! Damn Pencil!' I yelled in my mind, and to my surprise it turned over a little. "Yes! I did it!" I cheered.

"Good job, Renee!" I heard Selena laugh behind me. My cheeks reddened. "You saw that?" I asked, a bit embarrassed at being caught cheering over something so minor. She nodded smiling. "I've been watching you for the past ten minutes. You're doing good, studying beforehand." She told me, walking over and sitting next to me. "If you keep it up, soon you'll be able to do this." she said. In my peripheral, I could see the furniture and books in the room, floating around. It was amazing to see in person.

"You'll be doing this and much more by the end of next year, Renee." She said, smiling. "Ready for your first lesson?" I nodded, excited. "I want you to do the same thing you were doing before, but don't just move the Pencil. Lift it to at least eye level." I paled a bit, but nodded. "Ok. I'll try." The celestial being grinned. "Good. I'll leave you to it." she said, putting everything down and leaving. I sighed, looking down at the pencil on the floor. "This is gonna be a long night."

So there's chapter 6! I hope I didn't make Renee to Mary-sue. Tell me what you think in the reviews. Also, I'm creating a hp forum, and your all welcome to join. the link is in my bio.
