I wake up to Lucious pawing at my face just in time for my first day at public school. Hoping it'll be a just as fun as homeschooling witchcraft, I get dressed and head down stairs where mom has breakfast cooking itself. I shake my head wondering where she is when she steps out of the pantry. "Im right here dear and Idk what's with those chickens lately you'd think they'd never seen me gather eggs before" she exclaims walking over to the stove. "Well they are watching you take their children." "Yeah but you'd think they'd be used to it, after all they haven't hatched single one yet." I hum in response not really caring about the topic. "Well I'm off to school mom." "Wait just a minute there Cole." I freeze at the motherly tone she uses so generously with my name. "Take some breakfast for the road." She scolds. With a wave of her hand food from the table fly's into the tupperware on the counter. I watch as food floats over an stacks its way into my bag, neatly. On my way out the door I hear her yell "and don't you take your broom either." In my head I finish her phase 'just because they can't see you doesn't make it right.' Ugh I hate that I know all her sayings by heart. I start to walk down the street enjoying the cool breeze, mind focused on a rock I had been levitating at ankle height. I get to the school and stop studying the various windows and entrances. I head to the office only to be met with a loud perky voice. "mornin, whatcha need hun?" The short older lady behind the desk spoke with a slight raspy southern draw. "Hi, I'm Colby brock..." I stated not really sure what to say. "Oh, you're the transfer!" She smiled wide before pulling out a file with a few documents inside. "Okay, so since you did home school so long you only need a science credit. Thankfully we have an opening in 7th period, so if you want you can take extra classes or just come in for that hour." She looks up at me from the paper shes using to explain. "I'll just come in for that class." I smile at her wondering why she thinks anyone would add classes. "Alrighty well you still have a few hours, you can find somewhere to go on campus or you can go home til class starts?" "Um.. Can you point me toward your library?" I question, gathering my things. "Straight down this Hall to your right dear." She pointed, not looking up from her monitor. I walk out of the office an head to the library, once there I select a few that look interesting and begin reading. "Find everything ok" asked a very small frail looking woman. "Yes but um what time does the 7th hour bell ring." I ask Realizing I didn't ask the secretary. "2:06" she manages to state with a shakey voice. "Thank you" with a nod she walks back to her desk and I focus back on my book.

I look up from my book, having finished 2 others, noticing its 2:00 I stand to push in my chair waving goodbye to the sweet librarian and heading to class. I get there just as 6th period let's out and walk in to see everyone putting away their things and washing equipment while the teacher is erasing the board. "Excuse me, are you... Mr...... Conawat?" He glaces over at me. "E-yes... Can I help you." He asks with an accent I couldn't quite place, examining my appearance. "Uh.. I'm Colby brock, the uh-" "ah, yes the transfer! Well.. Step back here and well get you set up for class." He gestures toward a walk in storage room behind the board. We step in and he pulls out a few papers, after searching for a moment. "Hear we are! Now since you're of age I need YOUR signature on these instead of a parent or guardian.....And this is what we've gone over so far I'll assign a few work sheets for homework every day-or so to help you catch up. Come and see me if you need any help with anything we can schedule time to work on it, ok?" "Alright that sounds great, thank you!"

As we're going over and signing the proper paper work the bell rings and I got a little nervous as we stepped out into the class room. "Listen up everyone, this is Colby, hell be joining our class. So lets do our best to make him feel welcome." He announced followed only by the murmurs of various social groups. "Why don't you have a seat next to Sam." He said directing me and gesturing to the cute boy in the back of the class. I strut down the isle knowing I have the attention of everyone in the room. Plopping down in the chair next to the attractive blonde I notice he is resisting the urge to look at me. Realizing this I begin to will him to look at me. Curious to why it's not working I stare harder. On any normal person I would barely have to try, but it looks like Sam is a little out of the ordinary. Lucky for h I love a challenge.

The bell rang bringing me out of my thoughts. I look over at Sam and watch as he finishes packing his things and leaves the room. I exit not far behind him passing as he Mets up with a friend. she seems talkative and bubbly, not really my type of person, though he doesn't seem to mind. I turn to focus on where I was heading, which at the moment was a place to study for my
Magic test this evening. I walk out a side door just to be hit in the face with vines. By stepping out and shuting the door I realized there's a little hiding place. I make a mental note of the location and continue to the woods behind the school. Coming to a small clearing I spot a tree out of the corner of my eye. I take off my shirt realizing it had become quite warm in the heat of the day. I whistle a couple notes, calling to my cat back home, who soon comes swooping in to land on a branch, as i find a comfortable position in the tree. Concentrating all I can I lift the flap to my bag and pull out my book of spells. Lucious watching with interest as if to help me levitate the heavy mass of pages. Once comfortable in my lap, the book opens to the lesson I have been practicing. After a while I feel eyes on me, I look up to see Sam and that girl from the Hall, Sam's face holding shocked and confused expression. Sam opens his mouth to say something but pauses. The girl behind him stepped forward in between us partially as if to block him. "Hi, I'm Maria. You're the new kid.. Cole, right? " she said boldly. " Colby, an yeah." "Oh, well Colby it was lovely to have met you but I gotta rush home an help papa. See you guys tomorrow." she excuses her self and heads of through the trees. Sam gazed after her before quickly turning toward me "I've seen you before!" He half screams. "Yeah we have bio chemistry together, remember? You saw me 20 minutes ago." I remind him assuming he's lost his mind. "That's not what I mean!" He groans, beginning to appear frustrated.

Sam slowly walks closer taking a seat on a boulder a few feet away from the base of the tree. "This might sound crazy but I had a dream about you in this tree with that book and some kinda--" *meOw* Lucious jumps down onto a low branch from some where in the tree. "Yeah that! " Sam jumps up from the rock backing up just a bit. "What the hell kinda of cat is that anyway? " he nervously regains his seating, making sure to maintain a visual of lucious. "His name is lucious. He's my devilcat. He's extremely wise and insightful. He also love snuggles and head scratchies." I say picking him up to scratch in between his ears, he purrs as his wings flutter. Sam stares at us for awhile looking as if he were lost in thought. "You had a dream about me?" I question trying to remind him that he was in the middle of a sentence. "Yeah, you were in this tree with your...devilcat reading that book and you looked up at me right before I woke up....Sounds crazy, huh?" He lowered his gaze focusing on a pebble sitting next to him. "Not at all, it sounds like a premonition." "A what now?" He looks back up at me with the cutest puzzled look. i squint at him alittle catching a glimmer of blue and purple swirling in his iris. "Ok let me level with you for a minute because you don't seem like an ordinary human." He gives me a inquiring look his eyes glissening is the shaded lighting. " how much do you know about Magik or Witchcraft?" I ask casually and with widened eyes he replies "literally nothing why did you put a spell on me or something?" He scoffed "Don't mock what you don't understand!" I raise my voice a little causing him to recoil. "Sorry I didn't mean to make fun...Or anything." He shifts on the rock and starts moving dirt around with his shoe. *sigh* "Well i guess I can try to help you understand this dream of yours. Meet new here tomorrow after school and we can walk to my house, I'll look up what I can on premonitions so we can try to see why you're having them." "um... Ok well I'm gonna go and try to make sense of this later." He gets up giving me glances of disbelief. I roll my eyes knowing this is going to be a difficult case to explain. Knowing I'll need to check with mom I close my eyes and exhale an icy cold sigh. I open my eyes to a frozen Sam. I had frozen time before but this was a little strange. I walk over to Sam and grab his phone out of his back pocket, I put my number in his contact and copy his number to my phone so I can get ahold of him later. Putting his phone back I grab my things and turn to head home. I turn back to get one more glance at him before walking away and unfreezing time.
