of screaming,punching and kicking." I told her jokeingly.

"This is no joke! Your going to get your ass kicked if you dont learn how to fight without magic." She snapped back.

"Well I can enchant my self to fight well." I said with a lazy eye roll

"No! You need to stop taking the easy way out!" I put my hands up in a 'well then' gesture" FINE I'll let you teach me how to fight."

"Ok,good Annabelle will be a while she had to watch some people."

"Really who? And I thought she had erands to run?"

"Yeah watching the people are her erands and she's with Jag and his brothers."

"Oh,well then what do I need to know for this kind of fighting?"

"Well you just need to aim and follow through." Emily explained.

"Oh, ok. I wonder what Annabelle is doing right now." I think that doing a spell that let's me see and hear what Annabelle sees and hears would be in order.

"Emily I'll be right back I have to use the bathroom."

"Ok hurry back."

"Alright." So I went upstrairs and got some candles out of my bag and locked myself in the bathroom.

I cast the spell and now I see Jag's house and I hear Annabelle talking.

"You know Sasha you are a pain in the ass.And all I wanted to do was hang out with Jag and Steven. But you think that I am spying for the werewolf side really?"

"Well yeah, we can't trust many people, we only tolerate you because you and Emily help with our; events." Sasha yelled.

"So that's not the only reason I'm still allowed here isn't that right Jag?"

"Uh well Sasha she is pretty cool why don't you trust her?"

"Because unlike you guys I'm a real demon and I don't make friends with the opposite side. Come on think. You know she comes up with most of the pranks, look what she is capable of!" Sasha replied as he stormed out of the room.

Annabelle sighed and sat down in a chair.

"Sasha wait!" Jag yelled as he ran after him.

"Sasha if you keep being mean to her how are we going to convert her and Emily to the vampire side?"

"Ok fine I'll be tolerant until she's fulling converted."

"That's all I'm asking for." I heard them say even though it appears Annabelle didn't.

"So Steven you don't mind me here do you?"

"Nah not at all it's funner when your here."

"Two out of four isn't too bad." Annabelle smiled as Sasha and Jag walked back in.

"Did you take care of his sourpuss attitude?"

"Annabelle I am taking the high road this only time so I suggest you be nice."

"Agreed" Annabelle said.

Then all of a sudden I'm back in Emily's bathroom with Emily herself banging on the door.

"Hey Gwen what's taking so long? Answer me Gwen. Your worrying me. Open up now!"

I quickly opened the door and blew out the candles.

"Sorry Emily I didnt hear you."

"Didn't hear me that's impossible. And what's with the smoke what the hell are you doing in there?!"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Uhhhh nothing Emily I swear."

"Then what's with all the smoke."

"Fine i lit some candles ok, I casted a spell."

"Ok that's fine but don't try to make excuses for yourself.Come on we have to train." Emily said angerily.

Just then the doorbell rang."Wait her I'm going to go see who that is ok?"

"Ok." I replied.Emily opened the door and it was Annabelle!

"Hey Emily how is Gwen doing with her training?"

"Not well,we haven't even started she spent the whole time in the bathroom ncasting a spell."

"Really does she know we have deadlines to meet and a war coming up?"Annabelle sounded angry.

"Annabelle,calm down I haven't told her about the war."

"Ok, fine just make sure she can fight and make sure the potions are finshed in time."

"Alright there's no need to get yourself worked up."

"I'm going to go pull out the potion ingredients. Tell her to meet me in your kitchen when she has cleared out the smoke."Annabelle said looking up at the bathroom.

"Ok." Emily walked back up me and said to meet Annabelle in the kitchen.

"Ok."I replied.This was my chance to tell Annabelle about the spell and what I heard Jag say.I walked in calmly and went to Annabelle's side.

"You are going to have to settle down and get to training." She said as she got a pot out.

"Yeah I know." I said as i reached for the pot.

"What potion do you want me to make?"

"Well you can make some protection potions."

"Ok how many do you want me to make?" This was going to be easy a couple of potions and I'm done.

"Make 1,000 protection potions and put them in viles before the night is over."

"What the hell! Are you even going to help!."

"No. Me and Emily will be upstairs planning some attack routes and such.I'll be down to check on you in a couple hours."Annabelle said as she walked up the stairs to Emily's bedroom. I can't believe she left me with so any potions to make.

"Bitch" I muttered. I thought to myself maybe I should temporarily curse her.I will make it so she can only speak and understand Chinese. But then I decided that that would only make me as bad as her and I'm better than that. Instead I left and didn't make any potions at all.

That will teach her that I'm smarter than she gives me credit for.
Annabelle

I went downstairs and it was around 10 pm. And I saw Gwen gone and the potions not made.

"I'm going to kill that bitch I swear to god i will." I muttered under my breath. Emily came down just then and looked just as pissed as I felt.

"Where did the little witch go?"

"Out I guess. If she thinks she can undermine me she has another thing coming."

"Hey,you can either go to school tomorrow and just go up to her and punch her or you can you can plan this carefully and get her when the time is right."

"That seems smarter but punching her seems easier."

"That is true but with my plans we can get her back twice as hard.Now calm down and tomorrow you are going to sweetly ask her for help with the potions."

"Fine.We will talk tomorrow now let's get some sleep." Emily nodded and we walked upstairs and went to bed. The next morning I quickly got ready with Emily and we flashed to school. And what a coincidence I flashed a couple feet away from Gwen.

"Hey." I said with my best 'I hate you smile.'

"Oh hey." Gwen said as if nothing had happened.

"Annabelle." Emily whispered the warning when she saw the look in my eyes.

"Let's get to class Gwen."

"BY the way Annabelle I got the office to switch my schedule to match yours." Emily told me.

"Awesome. Oh! Would you be nice enough to help me make 1,000 protection potions."

If your going to help, then yes."

"Great I'll see you tomorrow I'm hanging out with Karly and Mason today. Oh and you remember Karly invited you yesterday."

"Oh yeah that's right." Gwen remembered as we sat down in history.

The teacher came in and started talking about some American war that I as damn sure 100% of us didn't care about. We only care about the big war coming at the end of the school year. Next the bell rang and we all got up.

"Hey, Annabelle." Gwen from her seat.

"Yeah." I called back.

"We could work on potions right after we hang out with Mason and Karly." She suggested. "Yeah that can work out. Hey I'm going to walk with Emily to Spells II. Is that ok?"

"Yeah that's fine I was going to walk with Steven." I walked up to Emily.

"Spells II is the funniest class ever! Today we are continuing our love spells. Wait you don't have a partner do you?"

"No I don't. But it's ok I don't think I want one."

"Ahhhhhh smart." I said as I walked into Spells II and we took our seats. This time we will actually get a chance to do our spells.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Emily and i sat next to each other while Gwen was behind us making a new friend. She was talking to Sally, an elf.

So before the teacher came in I leaned over to Emily and said "So any idea's on what we are going to do about you-know-who?"

"Surprisingly none yet. But I'm me, so I'll be able to think up one idea." Emily said.

"Ok." I said as we went back to looking over our love spells one last time so we don't mess up. Then I heard a faint whisper say "Annabelle we need to talk."

It was Gwen so I whispered back "Not now!"

"Class I promised today we will bind two lovers so let's get the guys in and start casting." The teacher annouced. Next thing I know the 12 guys I saw before walked in. I saw Steven E. run to Gwen immediately and they started talking.

"How was Annabelle's house last night?" Steven asked.

"Oh, I didn't go to her house. I went to Emily's house and Annabelle tried to make me do her bidding. Just like you said she would." Gwen said reluctantly.

"I told you. Annabelle can easily do that and most people just go with it." Then Mason came up to me.

"Hey watcha been up to?"

"Oh, not much. How did the new girl do at Emily's house last night?"

"Not very well, Mason. She did nothing and the she just walked out."

"Oh, well maybe she's reluctant to pick a side. I bet she wasn't expecting this when she got tranfered here."

"Yeah maybe your right." I told him. Then people got to there right halves and Gwen's side casted first.

'Please you be careful,Not to get burned. For there is a love, To not be returned'

A group of casters said together.Then I felt this glow come over me. And I realized me and Mason have been binded together correctly. Wow it worked. So I took out my wand so I could reverse it like I told Mason I would,so it wouldn't damage our relationship.

"Gwen you did great. Good job." "Thanks I was worried at first
