Black Magic

Natasha:

"Shape shifting, definitely." I decided. "Ahem,..." I chanted the little couplet that was the spell. All of them were very cheesy. Whoever wrote this was obviously on something. The candles flickered and went out. "Damn." I whispered. But instead of my voice a low snarl was released from lips. I shook around, and as I did, I noticed paws. Four of them, supporting a sleek tawny body. Wow. This was amazing. The others re lit the candles and stared at me, wide-eyed.

"That is so amazing." Annie squealed. "Pass the book to me." I shoved her the book with my paw and tried to ignore the fact that all of my senses had been hyped up, especially my sense of smell, and someone in this room smelled delicious.

Annie~

"Awesome Nattie! I want shapeshifting too!" I exclaimed, taking the book from her and chanting the same words that Natasha had said. I closed my eyes and took in a deep breath.

Change me into something else.

Suddenly, my body started tingling and I dropped to the ground into a crouching position. Right before my eyes, my hands turned white and slowly became paws. I was the size of a small dog and I looked behind me to see that I had reddish brown fur.

Oh my gosh....

I started to gasp but the only thing that came out was a yelp. I'm a fox? Awesome! I'm foxy! My yelps sounded happier and Jacob started to cover his ears.

Wait, guys! We have to read on! I walked over to where I was orginally sitting and lept up on the chair. I put my paw on the book to point where I stopped reading.

Annie's fox appearance:

Leo~

After Luke finished Annie spell for her he picked the book up. "So who wants to cast a spell next?" Luke asked teasingly. I took the book and flipped around till I found a random page. . .Invincibility. . .I need that. I was so clumsy when I was off the tennis court. On my skateboard I did okay, but I always broke at least one bone in my body every year. So theoretically if this did work than. . .i would be a win win situation. I figured this had to work since Annie and Natasha spell did.

I lined four white candle in a star like shape, and put a small red one in the middle, and then lit them. "Taking long enough?" Luke asked impatiently.

"Change me from this weak form, to a indestructible being." I chanted the candles all blew out except for the middle one, but it started to turn blue! Then before long, the other ones turned on and they went from blue, to green, to purple, to black. "Whoa." I breathed. I heard Annie still yelping happily.

*Yeah I know my spell is horrible*

Brad

I grabbed the book next, and flipped through it. "I like Telepathy," I stated.

"Good idea," Luke said. "Now you will be able to borrow others peoples brains."

"Haha," I said sarcastically and began to chant. It was a load of gibberish though. When it was done, I looked around. Nothing. “Didn’t work”

"Not so surprising. You barley have enough brain to think yourself," Luke said. I had it. Before I knew it I though of him crumpling. A moment later he fell to the ground, after punching his own gut.

"I could get used to this," I said and glanced at Luke, he flinched, but I did nothing.

Annie~

I watched in horror as Luke crumpled to the ground. Brad! How could you? I scampered off the table and nipped at Brad's legs. Once, Brad shooed me away, I went over to Luke and licked his cheek.

*Horrible post I know. My brain is mush but I feel like posting anyway....*

Jacob (so Brad gonna want to kill me soon, so Annies in love with me then)

"Great how everyone elses spells are working fine, what about mine" I said and Luke smiled.

"lets be honest all the love spells in the world couldn't help you" Luke said picking himself off the floor.

"Brad" I said and he smiled Luke crumpled to the floor again. Annie turned back into Annie and slapped Brad she turned to me but stopped when her hand was inches from my face.

"just do it I deserve it" I said but she shook her head.

"I don't want to" She said and instead stroaked my cheek. everybody laughed.

"Ha guess it dose work." someone said.

Lucifer

I could feel my ears burning but not because of Brad's antics, I knew he'd get what he deserved for that though I hoped it wasn't my partial blindness. Oh yes, I knew the payment due for a spell such as Telepathy but it was Jacob my anger bubbled toward. Annie was the sweetest of my friends and she'd come to my defense not once but twice but now she was over there, drawn into stroking his cheek and staring all goggle eyed at him.

Worse, I could feel the emotions in her head and I sensed that there was a rich possibilty for corruption in her mind. Annie wanted this, she wanted to love someone and to be loved back. I had to drag myself out of her emotions and laugh along with everyone else. I couldn't let my plans be discovered.

"There's space over here for two," Jacob said with a grin, pulling a willing Annie onto his lap and combing his fingers through her vibrant coils. I didn't like the emotions I was feeling from his: surprise but also glee and temptation. He had a pretty young girl dangling on his strings, what guy wouldn't be tempted?

"When you're all done fooling around, I think some people are still waiting their turn," I sain in a light hearted tone, watching as the book was snatched eagerly by all the remaining teenagers who read their spells with greedy eyes. When everyone was done, I intended to suggest we go outside to really practice our new gifts.

_______________________
Feel free to move the group out into the garden or down to the local park when you're ready and don't worry if you haven't posted your character casting their spell by then. Just go ahead and write a paragraph or two concerning that and then use a line break/ sumarise and write a little in the present.

*Sure jok.*

Annie~

I was oblivious to everything around me the moment the tip of my finger touched Jacob's cheek. It was so smooth and handsome. Ignoring the laughs from everyone else, I let Jacob pull me onto his lap and I cuddled under his chin and wrapped my arms around him.

"Wow, this thing does work." I heard Jacob mutter under his breath. I looked back up at him with a confused look. What thing?

"Huh?" I asked, while Jacob still ran his fingers through my hair.

"Ah, nothing." Jacob assured me and pulled me closer. I backed away to look around. Everyone had left so Jacob and I were the only ones in the room. Where did they go?

"Oh, they're just in the garden." Jacob said, nonchalantly.

Jok, can you not have Brad use his powers in your posts, same for all actually. Because of the whole side affects, i think only the creators should do it. Or those don't count, because we might not want them used.

Kitty: did you mean in your post I get the blindness thing, or not. I was not sure.

Bolt is right actually, you shouldn't make any character use their powers. This time I'll let it go but no disadvantage to Brad for the last use.

Bolt: You have to choose one of the flaws listed in my character's bio and that flaw will now affect your character. Lucifer would rather you didn't find out he's partially blind but it's entirely up to you =)

*Uh, sorry, can someone bring Chris in?*

*okay since no ones posting can I have Brad try to kill me now, Kitty since its the first time I'm guessing it would be silly to kill my charector but if you want to roll the dice any way its fine. Alos I've got an idea for the phases of love and killing, the love gets stronger as the hours go by as dose the urge to kill them.*

Jacob

"you gotta love love right" I said to Anne who was sitting on my lap with her head on my chest.

"what' she said and i shook my head.

"nothing, nevermind" I said. Suddenly I felt kind of sick though did she really love me or was it just the spell? was I taking advantage of her?. I started to think but was inturupted as Annie kissed me.

"what" I said puching her away. she let out a whine.

"don't you want me?" she whined and it sunded a bit like a fox. Suddenly Brad walked in.

"hey Brad whats up, oh yeah and it was Annie I haven't touched her" I said.

"that much" I added under my breath. Brad didn't stir though he just glared at me. I walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder. His eyes flared and flashed red.

"Bastard" He said before grabing me and lifting me up he threw me at the wall and I felt the wind knocked out of me. I looked up at his skinny body and shook my head in disbelief. It must of been like when a mother ses its child stuck under a tree adrenalin goes to their mucels and makes them strong. Then again why would Brad want to hurt me.

Yes, you can have Brad try to kill you this time seenas you've already done it but next time try to let the other person do it the way they want. If they've not posted for a week or more then you or anyone else is okay to role play their attempt but otherwise, they should be the one to do it.

(Bolt, I'll put you on the list after Will so you get to conduct an attempt in your own way.)

and I get to roll anyway but here's hoping you don't die XD Also, the anger is different to the love. Instead of lasting for hours, it's present for an unstated amount of time, (anything up to four hours) steadily building into an uncontrollable rage so some people might try to kill impulsively while others could steadily plan the way in which to bring you down. After the attemp, failed or successful, the urge will either ebb away within a few minutes or vanish suddenly.

And... it's a five! You're safe this time at least.

Lucifer

Outside, I was feeling almost jealous at this opportunity the others had to test their abilities; mine wasn't one so easily tested. I was trying to be encouraging, leaning against my house when suddenly I heard a crash from inside and hurried through the open door. Why the hell was someone trashing my house? Could it be possible that someone's power was already getting out of control?

The answer was yes and of course it was Jacob. I glared at the sorry piece of shitsagging against the wall and had a good mind to go and punch him myself but instead put on a friendly grin and stepped in between. I almost grimaced when Annie ran to his aid, throwing her arms about his neck and crying out:

"Are you hurt? Oh, Jacob!" That wasn't the Annie I knew. She was a feisty girl and had anyone given a friend of hers trouble, she'd have given it back, not gone to pieces like that. Damn spell.

"What's going on Brad?" I asked in a soothing tone, walking slowly toward him. "I don't want my place to get trashed so if the two of you have a problem, take it outisde."

"It's him not me," Jacob protested. "He's the one with the problem!" I cocked an eyebrow at Brad who curled his lip and pushed past me, out the door.

Okay, I pick Lukes Over confidence for Brad.

Brad

I was outside with the others. For some reason I had been angry at Jacob since he cast his spell. Then the anger suddenly became overbearing, and I charged into the house. I barley remember what happened, but Jacob was against the wall a second later. And before long Luke came in, and Jacob was panting on the ground. No idea what to do, I stormed out. Suddenly the anger began to evaporate. Slowly I calmed again. But when it cleared I felt...arrogant.

(I'm really sorry, but can someone bring Reilly in? I realize I've been away for a while.)
