"Uggggggggh" I say dropping my head on the table with a thud, "Long day ?" a voice asks from above, I drag my head off the table and look up, "You have no idea, I spent 2 HOURS rearranging the potion bottles because she kept changing her mind, no by color, no alphabeticly, no by expiration date, uggggggggh" I repeat, "So pretty much a normal day, huh Shadow" Shade says placing a drink down before me, Shade and Shay are my only real friends in the shadow realm, it might have something to do with the fact that none of us can remember our names like a lot of the other shadows can, shadows get their memories erased when they get hired to make them more effective as servants, but most can at least remember their names, Shade, the snarky bartender, Shay his sly and annoying twin sister who seems to pop up wherever she pleases, and I, the constantly overworked witches assistant however, remain nameless, "Why is this my life" I ask Shade as he wipes clean a glass from the counter, Shade is the walking talking definition of tall, dark and handsome: jet black hair cut at just the right length, to accentuate his brilliant white eyes, considerably well built and a solid 6 feet, with a rose and thorn sleeve tattoo running down his left arm and a rebellious smile that would make any girl go weak in the knees, why he's still single is one of the worlds greatest mysteries, "Afterlife technically, and I'm sure if you remembered you'd tell me all about it Shad" he says flashing me a smile from over his shoulder before putting the glass down, "You got me there, hey where's Shay, she's normally annoying the living crap out of you by now" I say, lightly sipping my drink, "God knows where she's gone off to now" Shade says with clearly annoyed by the thought, "Who know's maybe she found another person to 'entertain' her" I say with a giggle, which earns me an eye roll from Shade, but before he can respond I hear a voice in my head, "Shadow come here please", I sigh and resist the urge to strangle her through our mind link, "Sorry gotta go" I say smiling at Shade apologetically, "Work ?", "Hell", "Same diff" he says and I laugh before hopping off of the bar stool and jumping right through the dark floor, when I regain my balance I'm stand in the potion isle of Aurora's magic emporium, one of the major perks of being a shadow servant is that we can teleport wherever it's dark, it almost makes up for the lack of vacation days, "Yes Ms.Aurora" I say when I appear, Aurora looks at me with a disapproving frown, sigh, what did I do this time.
