Chapter 6 - Calling On The Witches

Raven is still in a state of shock. After seeing the shadow last night, she knows that something is not right and it must have to do with Circa and that spell she had cast. Nothing has been right since that potion spilled from the bucket and splashed her in her face! I" know it, but Allison doesn't believe me and neither will Melissa," Raven thought to herself. In the wee hours of the morning, Raven decides to give Circa a call. She needs to know what's going on and must find out now, she does not want to put this off any longer. If Circa is into some type of witchcraft, she wants to know about it.

Raven tries and tries to call Circa but she does not answer her phone. Raven even lets the phone ring many times and she still doesn't answer. She knows it's early in the morning, but she thought if she'd let it ring multiple times, she'd answer. She begins to become more suspicious than ever, but then a little part of her is telling her, "It's still early" and that's why she didn't answer her phone. Nearly two hours pass by, and Circa hasn't called her back, Raven feels like if she had seen that she tried calling her, she'd call her back, but she hasn't, so she tries calling her again. She calls and her phone keeps ringing and ringing, she doesn't answer and now, Raven knows something is not right with her.

Raven takes a walk to clear her head. She walks through the woods just a few minutes from her house. She didn't want to see anyone that she knew because she didn't want to stop and talk to whoever she may have seen, all she wants to do is to find out what was going on. While she walks deeper into the woods she stumbles upon a garden, but it is not your average garden. She instantly stops, she looks around, her eyes bulging out in shock, she sees there are tall pieces of wood standing up in a circle, and in this circle is a small circle made of stone. She walks to the small circle inside the big circle of wood, she stands there and wonders what the heck this could be. Inside the small circle is dirt and a triangle shape, she stares at the triangle shape and begins to think that this is what Circa has created.

While standing by the circle, she hears whispers, she hears a few different whispers at a time saying, "Light the Flame, Light the Flame, the power of us." She looks around and sees no one, she runs off quickly, she becomes scared because she has no idea what's going on.

She races home, and when she arrives back home she runs to her bedroom and calls Allison and Melissa and asks them if they could meet somewhere, she must talk about what's happening to her. She must let them in on all of this weird stuff that has been happening.

Allison and Melissa meet her at the park. Once they all get together, they sit on the park bench. Allison already has a feeling about what she wants to discuss with them since Raven has talked to her already. Now she must tell Melissa about what's going on. Raven looks to Melissa and says, "I already told Allison what is going on, now I must tell you."

"There have been mysterious things happening around me. I don't know what all this means, but all I know is that these things keep happening around me," Raven said.

"And… What are they?" Melissa asked.

"I saw a shadow in the sky a couple of times, it was night. Then I keep hearing a whisper and no one is around," Raven replied.

"It's probably just your imagination," Melissa said.

"Yeah. That's what I told her too, but she says it's not," Allison said.

"Listen to me. I swear it's not my imagination. I'm going to show you two something and maybe you will believe me. And another thing, where is Circa? I can't get a hold of her. Have any of you heard from her?" Raven replied.

Allison and Melissa both shake their heads slowly back and forth.

"No. I haven't," Allison said.

"No. I haven't," Melissa said.

"See. Something isn't right here," Raven replied.

Raven stands up from the bench and says, "Follow me." Allison and Melissa follow Raven to the garden where she sees the triangle shape and hears those whispers.

"Where are we going?" Melissa asks.

"Yeah, Raven. Where are you taking us?" Allison asked after Melissa.

"Just follow me and you will see for yourselves," Raven replied.

They arrive at the woods, Raven leads them into the woods to the circle. Once they are near the circle, Raven stops and points straight ahead, and says, "Look. Look straight ahead at that circle. It's our circle, the circle of the witches."Melissa and Allison look at Raven and chuckle. Raven looks at them and says, "Keep laughing, this is no joke. Follow me." Raven leads them to the circle, and then inside the circle, they all stop and look at the small circle with the triangle shape.

Melissa and Allison look at each other and then look at Raven, their jaw drops in shock.

"See I told you I wasn't joking about this. This is the circle of the witches, but where is Circa?" Raven asks.

"Hmmm. Yeah, this is weird," Allison said.

"Guys, this is so cool. If this is really our circle this means we will receive more powers!" Melissa said.

"I agree with you, Melissa," Allison replied.

"Have any weird things been happening with you two?" Raven asks.

"No," Melissa replied.

"No," Allison replied.

"Why just me? And where is Circa?" Raven asks.

The three girls stand by the circle and cannot figure out what is going on. Now it's up to them to figure out how they will find out what's happening to them.
