Bab 6: Chapter Six
Mary Lou
Hecking school. I have better things to do. I grabbed my bookbag and headed out the door, bright and early. I walked through the early morning fog and mist. This was actually quite peaceful. I jumped when a car screeched to a stop and honked in front of me. He looked at me angrily and shook his fist. I gave him a nice view of my favorite finger and walked out of the way. He threw a soda can at me on the way pass. I caught it and threw it away. Stupid prick. I walked to school and entered the large, brick, windowless building. I entered and went straight to the common area. Mom and dad had already filled out the forms and gotten me a schedule so no need for human interaction. I sat down at an empty four person table and pulled out my computer. I pulled up my email and the GoodGhouls account.
"Hey. How is Denver going? You haven updated in a while. Whenever your down there I've got another place for ya. Contact me soon. I don't know how soon this place will stay open and I spent a lot of time trying to get you a pass for this place" sent. I hadn't even clapped out of it when a new email popped up. It was the GoodGhouls reply. Well that was fast. I clicked on the icon and opened it up.
"Oh god yes, get us out of here! Every single person we meet flirts with Joan and Lorali and its driving me crazy!!!! There are no spoopy things here even though halloween is in a month. Such a tragedy!!! I don't care if you booked us in a pit, tell us the address and well head right over!
-Daya"
I laughed and wrote out a reply.
"Where you just waiting by the computer for an email? I didn't even close the lid when you replied. Wellcrest, Montana, blackwell manor. Just go to the airport in an hour, i'll take care of the rest."
I exited the email and hopped onto the plane booking app. I booked the soonest flight to montana with the GoodGhouls bank account and logged back onto the email.
"First terminal, in 45 minutes. Good luck! *evil cackle*" I grinned and just the laptop, imagining little Daya shooting out of the cafe she was surely in and speed demon packing with Miky, Joan, and Lorali. I pulled out my phone and called the contactet known as Hagatha. She picked up after it had rang for a minute.
"Madam Blackwell speaking," she trilled in an attempt to sound fancy.
"Hag-i mean Agatha!"she made a disgusted noise and started to hang up.
"No no! Wait! How would you like a very famous youtube group to stay at your house?" a pause. I hated the woman but knew how to get her.
"Who?"
"The GoodGhouls."
"Ha! Like you even know their names!"
"I do, in fact, I'm their manager and they should be here by the time I get off of school. Get the rooms ready, trust me." I hung up as the bell rang. Great. ScHoOl tiMe.
5 hours later I dragged myself out of the cursed building and onto the sidewalk. I pulled out my phone and pulled up the video of Ezzie on the broom. I'd managed to salvage it from the depths of the cloud and put it back together in between classes and during lunch. I textedit to Daya. She received all of the emails and texts from me and kinda set up the interviews and such. I really did that in secret but it gave her confidence so i let her think that it was her. Funny to think of a 15 year old girl not wanting to hurt a 16 year olds feelings but Daya was touchy. Still my bestie though. I hit send and walked to the cafe i told them to meet me at. Heckish cafe. A cafe that was subtly emo and peppy at the same time, with the decor and atmosphere. I had seen it the other day when I went to get food substance and fell in love with it. I opened the tinted glass doors and scanned the emptyish tables. There. In the middle was the group. I walked over and took a seat.
"Hello ogers" Daya turned, saw me, and flipped her hat.
"AHHHH! Lou lou!" I cringed as she decimated my eardrums and hugged me.
"Daya! It's good to see you too but you're screaming in my ear." she let go sheepishly.
"Sorry"
"Did you get the video?" Joan snorted.
"The obviously doctored video? Yea we did." how dare he! I would never!
"I would never resort to doctoring even if we were six feet under!"
"I'll vouch for her. That wasn't doctored." miky was standing up for me in all of his techy glory.
"I ran it through an algorithm that would check and it's not doctored."
"So what?" joan said. "i t still looks doctored. We put that out there and were ruined." I rolled my eyes.
"No, that was just an example. I met this dude in a few towns back and he's here now. I'm certain he's a witch."
"How do you know?" Daya asked. I pulled up a picture of his room I had taken while he had slept. This was before he had cleaned up all the weird things and multicolored stains in the floor. In the picture the floor had the jars scattered all over and bright green and slop was spilling out of the caluren, spitting sparks. I turned the phone around and showed them. They whistled when they saw it.
"Wow. proof, for once." Daya said happily. I sat back and crossed my arms. I could see that Joan still didn't believe me, Miky was supportive, and Lorali was believing me. Daya always believed me. She put her arm around me and stage whispered,
"So are we going to talk about the hottie or what?" I shoved her off.
"Ezzie is not hot!" My face started to heat and she laughed. I opened my mouth to say something about her parents when a muffled bang made me jump and look to the doors. Outside the glass doors I could see Ezzie on the ground next to an older lady. They both had brooms next to them and looked like they ran into the door. The lady brushed off her orange and brown shawl and Ezzie helped her to her feet. She laughed and said something as they opened the door. I only caught the tail end of it.
"...and not do that again!" They walked to the booth behind me and sat down. I shrunk down and tried to become invisible. My friends looked between me and Ezzie.
"That's the witch?" Lorali whispered. I nodded and mimed zipping my lips. They shut up and I could hear the conversation.
"...oh really?! I'm surprised i hadn't heard of you!" the lady said
"I am Baba Yaga, the Feared Witch of the Wood! How have you not?! I run the largest black market in existence!" he sounded exasperated. I ignored my friends' looks of panic at the word witch. There was rustling and a papery noise.
"Here. take my card. We may as well form a coven anyways." Ezzie said. "I think we could find a few others in this town."
"Yes, may as well." the lady got up.
"My apologies but i should get going. Ihave my cat, De Vill, to feed." she walked to the door with her broom in tow. She rounded the corner and disappeared. Ezzie sighed and ordered an apple. A nice young man brought it to him. He didn't eat it, just stared at it.
"Cured apple,
Ruby red," holy crap! Is he cursing it?!
"An evil curse,
A wicked seal,
Burn the heart,
And harm the soul." He set it back down on the table and left. I popped up and swiped the apple.
"What are you doing!?" Daya shrieked and tried to grab it but I shoved it into my pocket.
"Did anyone get that on tape?" i asked. Lorali held up her phone. Yesss! Perfect! I grinned at the others.
"I believe I know where your next video will be."
