------------------------------------------------------------------
2011, the year before the end of the world. London, England, A girl wearing a gray over coat and a gray berret is seen running down maine street. Her long light brown hair blowing out behind her, and tightly griped in her hand is a dark navy blue book bag.
"Of all the days to be late I just Had to pick today!" said the girl under her breath as she rounds a sharp corner. Thinking back to the day before today, the girl remember's how she got into this prediciment.
' "Alright children! I have an important announcement for you all, so please gather around!" said the teacher as the students of the private warner academy placed down their pencils and gathered around their home room teacher, Mrs.Travers.
"Alright children, as you may or may not know, this month is our annual Career month! So that means that today during free period you are all to go down to the announcement board in the court yard to pick your job for the month!" Said Mrs.Travers as the bell rang.
"Time for free period! you are all dismissed!" said Mrs.Travers as the children collected their belongings into their identicle navy-blue book bags.
"Also remember to look carefully at the jobs listed! Some may need more than one child!" shouted Mrs.Travers over the chatter of the children.
As Mrs.Travers went to sit down, she notices a girl with long light brown hair standing infront of her.
"Ah, yes, what do you need Amanda?" asked Mrs.Travers as Amanda holds out a brown journal held together by two twine strings tied tightly around the book.
"I-I finished my new story Mrs.Travers" said Amanda as Mrs.Travers smiles and takes the book from her.
"Thank you Amanda, I'll read it tonight before I go to bed" said Mrs.Travers as she runs her hand slowly across the journal while staring down at it.
"I just love your stories Amanda, their so full of action and adventure. And your new series of stories have been just extrordinary! your main character Amber reminds me so much of myself when I was her age!" said Mrs.Travers as she smiles warmly at Amanda.
"Th-thank you Mrs.Travers" stuttered Amanda as she looks at the floor, a slight blush on her cheeks.
"Oh my! look at the time! Amanda, you better hurry to the court yard or else all of the good job's will be gone!" said Mrs.Travers as she looks to the clock.
"O-okay Mrs.Travers, See you tomorrow!" said Amanda as she grabs her book bag. Amanda then runs out of the door and down the stairs leading to the court yard.
As Amanda reaches the court yard she see's a large group of kids around the announcement board. Hurrying up to the edge of the group Amanda tries to peer over the student's heads. After about five minutes Amanda has finally made it to the front of the board. But sadly every single job had been taken exept for one. Amanda quickly put her hand on it at the exact moment another hand is placed on the paper. As Amanda looks to her right she see's none other then Caitlyn Waters, her greatest rival and enemy.
The rivalry began when Amanda was in kindergarten. Caitlyn was boasting about how she could beat all of her classmates in a race, and Amanda over heard her. Amanda told Caitlyn that she could beat her two times over. The argument ended when they challenged each other to a race. During the race both of the children didn't see where they were going, due to the fact that they were to busy glaring at each other as they ran. And they were both knocked out cold when they ran into the wall of the school building.
"This is My job, My hand was on it first!" said Caitlyn as Amanda glared at her.
"No it isn't! I got here first, Go find your self another job!" said Amanda loudly as Caitlyn glared at her as well. As the two girls started to get into another argument, a third girl, with glasses, steps up and hits both girls over the head with two text books, one in each hand.
"Stop bickering you two! your acting like five year olds!" said the girl. Amanda turns her head to look at the girl with the books, and imediatly reconizes her.
"Your Marisa right? i think I've seen you before..." said Amanda as she tries to think about where she saw her.
"Of corss you've seen me before! I'm in your class! numbskull!" said Marisa angryly as she shifts the two text books to be held by her left arm as her right fixes her sliping glasses.
"Why did ya hit me?! I was right in the middle of a very important argument!" said Caitlyn in an angry voice as she rubs her head with her free hand.
"Because you two were fighting over nothing! And next time look at the job before you start fighting!" said Marisa as she grabs the paper with the job on it from under Amanda and Caitlyn's hands.
"Look! see? it says 'Three applicants needed!' Do you know what that means? it means that this job calls for Three people!" said Marisa as she hold up the job paper. Amanda and Caitlyn look at each other then closely at the paper. Caitlyn then reads it out loud.
"'The three witches book store. Now hiring! Three applicants needed! If you are interested please come to Manchester street, building 608, you cant miss it'." said Caitlyn as Amanda straightens up.
"Manchester street, building 608? an't that the place where that crazy old man lives? what was his name? dootlee? dottlvee?" said Amanda as she continues to list random names.
"All of those are wrong, his name is Dottlebee, Mr.Dottlebee...but I didn't know that there was a book store there..." said Caitlyn as she straightens up and puts a finger to her chin in thought.
"There Isn't one there, never has been, It must be a mix-up of address's...but its the last job so we should probably check it out tomorrow..." said Marisa as she fixes her glasses again.
"Yeah, your right, besides we have no other choice" said Amanda as Caitlyn pouts but nods her head in agreement anyways.
"Alright then we meet at the end of maine street tomorrow and walk the rest of the way there together?" said Marisa as Caitlyn and Amanda nods in agreement.
"Okay then see you guys there!" said Amanda excitedly as she jumps up and down. Spinning around Amanda then runs off towards her next class as the bell rings.
"Hyperactive numbskull..." muttered Caitlyn as Marisa nods in agreement while she fixes her glasses yet again.
"See ya later" said Caitlyn as the two girls turn opposite directions and start to walk off.
"See you tomorrow" said Marisa as she walks off to her next class as well.'
Now being late was an under statement. No Amanda is far more then late, she is about four hours late. It seemed as though she over slept for three hours, then it took her another hour just to get ready. Now she is Running down Maine street at full blast hoping that the other two are as late as her, Sadly they aren't because as Amanda turns yet another corner at the end of maine street she almost runs into Caitlyn and marisa who were awaiting her arival.
"Your Late." Said Marisa as she takes a step back and watches Amanda stumble before she catches herself and stands up to stare at them both.
"S-sorry, I kinda over slept" said Amanda as she rubs the back of her head.
"Kind of over slept? We've been waiting for like six hours for you! I was ready to just go to our job with out you!" said Caitlyn angryly as she glares at Amanda.
"Actually she is four hours and seventeen minutes late." corrected Marisa as she takes her glass off and cleans them with a handkerchief she got from her pocket.
"I'm So Sorry! You see I was having a Really nice dream, and I was really cozy in my bed that I just didn't want to wake up!" Said Amanda as Caitlyn and Marisa starts to walk down the street.
"What ever! just hurry up or else we'll leave you behind!" said Caitlyn loudly as Amanda runs after them.
"Ah! W-Wait for Me!" shouted Amanda as she follows the two down the begining of Manchester street.
"608, This is it..." said Marisa as she looks up from holding the paper with the job listing on it. Infront of the three is a small book store. A sign is hanging over the door way with a picture of a cresent moon, next to the cresent moon is a small star. And in fancy gold lettering the signs reads 'The three witches book store'.
"Nice place, but I wonder what happened to old man Dottlebee?" said Amanda as she tilts her head while staring at the book store.
"Doesn't matter, lets just go in..." said Caitlyn as she walks up to the enterance of the book store.
"He either moved out, of changed his house into a book store" said Marisa as she follows Caitlyn to the doorway of the store.
"I geuss so..." said Amanda as she walks cautiously up to the doorway.
"Ready guys?" said Caitlyn as she looks over her shoulder to see Amanda and Marisa nod in unisen.
"Okay, Here we go!" said Caitlyn as she pushes the door open. As the door opens bells that are attached to the other side of the door jingle.
"Whoa! Its huge inside!" said Amanda as she stumbles in side the book store.
Shelves of books line the walls and fill up the spaces inbetween, making about six or eight isles you can walk down. To the right side corner, closest to the door is a cash resgister. And to the left corner in a little quarter circular area is a coffee table and three easy chairs in black leather, along with three individual lamps above each chair.
"Well I guess that 'Dont judge a book by its cover' would really work for this place..." said Marisa as she fixes her glasses.
"Hello!? Is some body Here!?" shouted out Amanda as caitlyn whacks Amanda on the head.
"Dont shout out, stupid! this is a Book store! not a cavern!" said Caitlyn angrily as Amanda rubs the back of her head.
"Ow! That hurt Caitlyn!" said Amanda as she glares at Caitlyn angily, who in turn answers the glare with one of equal magnitude.
"Stop fighting, Do I have to hit you with books Again?" said Marisa in an annoyed tone as she walks up to a book shelf. Taking an old looking book off the shelf Marisa starts to flip through it.
"Enjoying that book?" said a man with blonde hair as he looks over Marisa's shoulder, which is easy due to him being taller then her. In surprise Marisa slams the book shut and pretty much jumps back ward away from the man and into another shelf.
"Holy Cow! You scared the living day lights out of me!" said Marisa as Amanda and Caitlyn start to laugh.
"So sorry, I thought you would have noticed me coming up behind you! my serest apologizies Madam" said the blonde male she he takes marisa's hand. Bending down he gently kisses the top of it. Of corss marisa pulls away with a light blush on her face.
"Stop that! its wierd!" said Marisa as she backs away to stand beside Caitlyn and Amanda who has recovered from their burst of laughter.
"Ah, sorry madam, its in my nature as a gentleman to greet one such as your self in that way" said the blonde haired man as he steps out of the isle and bows gracefully.
"How may I be of service to you three fine examples of young ladies?" asked the blonde haired man as he straightens up.
"We came to ask you about your job listing for three applicants" said Marisa, in a completely un-emotion voice as she fixes her sliping glasses yet again. Amand then turns to Caitlyn and whispers in her ear.
"She recovered pretty fast" whispered Amanda to caitlyn who nods in agreement.
"Its in my nature to recover from some thing as silly as that" said Marisa, now in the middle and behind the two a little bit.
"And Yes, I can hear you" added Marisa as Amanda and Caitlyn jump backwards, startled.
"My, My, you three are very lively, you will like it here very much...Now just to find those job applicant papers...now where did I put them?" said the blonde man as he starts to look around the register area.
"Daphne! Hannah!" shouted the blonde man as a dark red haired girl, and a long dirty blonde haired girl walk around a book shelf.
"What do you need now?" said Daphne in a plain tone as the blonde haired man rubs the back of his head.
"Well, it seems that I've missplaced those job applicant papers...Oh! and these three girls are going to be our newest batch of workers!" said the blonde man as Daphne and Hannah look towards the three girls. Daphne then turns her head back to the man.
"One, the papers are in your back left pants pocket...and Two, are they strong enough?" said Daphne as she looks the three girls up and down.
"They seem a little weak to me." said Daphne as the blonde man laughs lightly.
"Ah, well, I'm sure their strong enough!" said the man as he pulls out three folded peices of paper.
"Alright girls, all you have to do is fill this paper out, and tomorrow you can start working!" said the blonde man as her hands Caitlyn the papers who passes the other two to Marisa and Amanda.
"Okay then, any questions?" asked the blonde man happily as he smiles a large smile, showering off his perfect white teeth.
"Ya, I have a question for you..." said Amanda.
"Whats your name? you never told us" finished Amanda as the man smiles again.
"What a fine question m'lady! I am known as a legend! A thousand names I have been given around the world! I am a wo-OW!" said the blonde man as Daphne whacks him in the head with a large book. She then turns to the three girls.
"His name is Alex Draco, He collects old books" said Daphne plainly as Alex rubs his head.
"that hurt Daphy! why are you always so mean to me?" said Alex as Daphne holds the large book above Alex's head. She then drops it.
"Oops, it sliped." said Daphne in another plain voice and Hannah helps Alex to his feet.
"Tommorrow, Eight A.M sharp, Be here, Dont be late." said Daphne as she pushes the three girls out side of the book store. As the girls turn around Daphne then slams the door in their face and flips the Open sign to Closed.
"How Rude!" said Caitlyn as Amanda walks into the street while reading the paper.
"Well, it cant be helped, we must have came in when they were about to close..." said Marisa as she fixes her glasses.
"Hey guys? Look at the job Applicants, dont they look a little bit wierd?" said Amanda as she holds up her own Applicant paper. Marisa and Caitlyn then quickly look at their papers, Marisa reads it off.
" 'Please fill out all area's listed, this information in confindentual and will be with held.
Name:
Age:
Gender:
Height:
Wieght:
Clothes size:
Hat Size:
Please answer the following questions,
What's your favorite color?:' " said Marisa, she then looked up at Amanda with an arched eye brow.
"So? its just the normal stuff, whats so wierd about it?" said Marisa as Caitlyn nods in agreement.
"No, look at the bottom of the paper, theres another question" said Amanda as she walks over and points to it on Marisa's paper, where some thing has been written in messy ink. Marisa then reads it out loud.
" 'Last question, please be truthful, the truth will always come out in the end.
Do you believe in magic?:' " said Marisa as she tilts her head.
"Thats a strange and random question..." said Caitlyn as Amanda wiggles her fingers in an up and down motion.
"Spooooky! who would want to know some thing like that? I bet this Alex guy is a wierd monster from the under world sent to take the souls of young girls like us!" Said Amanda as Marisa whacks Amanda's hands down.
"Your crazy and stupid, Yes Alex is wierd, but under no circumstances is he a 'demon from the under world' sent to kill us!" said Marisa as Caitlyn nods in agreement.
"Yeah, she's right, now go home and get some sleep numbskull...And No watching scary monster movies! they will rot you brain even further then what it is!" said Caitlyn as she and Marisa start to walk off together.
"What ever!" said Amanda as she sticks her tongue out at Caitlyn's turned back.
"I an't nuts, that Alex guy just gives me a wierd feeling..." muttered Amanda as she follows Caitlyn and Marisa home. Inside the book store window, Alex watches Amanda leave.
"Do you think she's catching on?" asked Daphne, who is busy stacking papers into a pile.
"I dont know but is she does, that would be very bad for us" said Alex as Hannah and Daphne nods in unisen.
In a small victorian house, Amanda is at her desk doing her home work.
"Tomorrow Is the starting day of career month, that means no home work for a whole month!" said Amanda as she scratches her black cat's head.
"An't that right Artimis?" said Amanda as the black cat meows happily. Just then Amanda sees the job applicant paper on her desk.
"Might as well fill this out, I'm done with home work anyways" said Amanda as she opens it up and starts to fill it out.
As Amanda finishes filling it out she looks at the last question.
'Do you believe in magic?'
'Its a simple question Amanda, Of corss I beileve in magic! who wouldn't?...but still some thing about it...' thought Amanda to her self as she pets Artimis with her free hand.
"Oh well! I must be imagening it!" said Amanda as she writes under the question 'Of corss I do!'. As Amanda finishes the last word, the lights suddenly start to flicker, and out side the wind picks up, Artimis suddenly hisses and the fur on her back puffs out. Jumping down Artimis doves straight under Amanda's bed. Amanda then looks up at her desk light, after about a minute the wind dies down and then the lights come back on. Amanda then looks down at her paper and gasps. Written in black ink below where Amanda answered the last question it says,
'Good.'
Amanda then shakes her head and turns off her desk light. getting into her bed she stares up at the ceiling.
"I Am watching too many monster movies..." mummbled Amanda as she snuggles deeper into her bed and goes to sleep.
