Chương 20: Giovanni Zatara (1)
*Zatanna_POV*
Today Dad has a show in Metropolis.
Metropolis is a very big city, I haven't seen it yet. Dad said that after the show he will take me out and if we have time we may even be able to visit the amusement park.
He had performed those tricks in front of me so many times already, that's why I decided not to see the show from backstage and come to my room to practice my magic.
Real magic, no tricks, no sleight of hand pure real magic. I was surprised when after I learned everything about performance magic, prestidigitation as he called it, he told me that now the real magic training can start.
That was last week. Even though I am way smarter than all kids my age, speaking backward is hard. But I will keep practicing until backward becomes my native language.
I heard a knock on the door and opened it to find a boy wearing a red t-shirt and black jeans smiling at me.
"The magic show is going on downstairs in the hall." I tell him, weirdly wanting to get close to him, like something was attracting me, like he has this calming aura coming from him.
"So what are you doing here alone little lady ... Hi I am Clark, I am here to ask your Dad to teach me real magic"
As I touch his hands for a handshake, I feel strange. My face goes red as a tomato, I feel so good through his hand and his warmth coursing through my body.
No this is not warmth, it feels the same energy which I use for my magic, but so much more, like its endless. He suddenly took his hand back and kept looking at my face.
He must feel I am a weird girl now. No he is the weird one, why does he have so much magic and why is it just flowing out of his body.
He said real magic now, so he must also be like me and dad, a real magician.
"Umm, come inside for now ... Dad will come back here when the show is over." I, still embarrassed about before, invited him into the room.
He comes in and looks around the room, I get more embarrassed as before every show dad leaves the room in a mess, which I have to clean up after.
"So you said your name was Clark? I am Zatanna" I reply to him shyly, still trying to control and absorb the magic I got before.
I am never shy around anyone, not even boys, I am a magician, I will have to perform in front of lots of people so I don't know what is happening to me today.
Maybe this is what they call love at first sight, he does look handsome and he is tall too. Or maybe it's because of his magic which I tasted before.
"Hello beautiful Zatanna … were you practicing your magic right now? If you want I can perform some magic for you."
When I heard him call me beautiful my heart started beating so fast, I felt butterflies in my stomach. Even my magic is almost about to lose control.
I have to calm myself down, even if I feel very happy I shouldn't show it to him.
"Sure lets see what you know … Let me tell you first that I have seen many magical tricks, so if you want to impress me you will have to show me something really magical!"
I don't know why but I wanted him to impress me and show his best magic. I was sure that he would not show me a trick but real magic and he would perform it just for me.
"Ok as you wish my lady … Can I have a glass of water first."
He did the bow and everything, he must be a real gentleman. I filled up a glass with water and presented it to him.
"Just keep holding it your hand and focus on the water"
I did as he said and suddenly I could see the water bubbling, the water was evaporating and converted to vapour above the glass in front of me.
I checked underneath the glass and touched it around just to see if there was some trick in the glass but it was just simple glassware, which I chose.
But how? he hasn't even touched it, nor has spoken any spells and I can't see any wand in his hands. Before I knew it, all the water evaporated from the glass.
"I am sorry miss but this glass looks empty" He took the empty glass from my hands accusing me of it.
I giggled, he is truly a natural performer.
"That was really magic, how did you do it? … Can you teach me? … Can you show me some more magic please" I asked him, wanting to know how much better he is then me.
He kept the glass on his right palm and the glass started floating up from his hands.
"Ohh making objects float, I too was practicing the same magic, but it's so hard to perform it in succession and I have to pronounce the chant perfectly too each time … But it's ok I will perfect this magic and I will even fly one day, it's one of my dreams you know."
