Chapter 2: Get a Job

"I'm sorry," the big man's black mustache twitched as he shook his head, the motion setting his large belly into a slow-motion wobble. "No experience, no job."I was getting very sick of hearing that. Had spent an entire day being told the same thing over and over in various wordings. "Oh, you've never waitressed before? I'm sorry, this job requires someone who has." "Our spring training for summer students is already over. Unless you've done this before?" "Our customers expect our staff to be knowledgeable and confident."Grumble, mumble."How," I said, trying to keep my voice down, my temper in check, knowing it brought out occasional sparks of magic and absolutely needing to keep a lid on my power if I was ever going to make Mom trust me, "am I supposed to get experience if no one will give me a job?"He didn't seem to care. Turned his back on me. The line of sweat down the middle of his white t- shirt made me gag. I left the bakery, thinking maybe this rejection was for the b

Chapter 3: Dreams

The ball leaps from my foot, back and forth, right and left as I run and dodge my way down the soccer field. The crowd roars their appreciation, my team one goal off the world championships.This is it, my moment, my chance to prove I'm the best soccer player who has ever been born. The sky overhead turns a multi-hued rainbow of colors as the demons on one side of the field stomp their feet in time with the human crowd screaming my name.I feint as a demon player rushes me, her horns down, charging me like a bull, bright red uniform matching her skin. She rushes past me, missing me as I twirl like a ballerina, the ball still in perfect balance between my feet. I complete my pirouette and pull my right foot back, the goal only feet away.Easy in. Easy win.The roaring crowd goes wild, my name chanted wildly, the air thick with heat.No, wait. Cold. Icy cold, prickling goosebumps on my arms as my foot slips and I fall-***I jerked upright, breathing out a gasp of air in a mist of

Chapter 4: First Day

I was up and out of the house as early as I could manage. Partly because I didn't want to have to talk to Mom about the night before, and partly because I hadn't slept and just needed to get away from home.Sassafras caught me sneaking my way through the front door, his humming growl stopping me in my tracks. I turned to see him standing at the foot of the stairs, glaring his cat-glare at me."Have a nice day at work," he said. Like he totally meant it. Not.I stuck my tongue out at him, turned to go again when he laughed wickedly. "Don't forget Ethpeal wants her hair done."I spun back on him, feeling the blood rush from my face, neck, chest to pool in my suddenly unhappy stomach."You wouldn't dare." Would he?Syd. This was Sassafras we were talking about. Oh crap.I bolted before he could say another word, shivering internally at the thought of Gram having a major-or even a minor-explosion at Evie's. Everything would be my fault, naturally, and we'd be forced to move less tha

Chapter 5: Echoes

I felt my hackles rise even as Jared Runnel, Erica's boyfriend, rose from the table and headed for the door, past me. He rolled his dark eyes, one hand rising to squeeze my shoulder on the way out.Normally, I would have taken a few seconds to sigh over the very handsome, dark-haired Jared, to feed my secret little crush on his broad shoulders, muscles and chiseled jaw, but not now.Not while doom waited for me in the faces of three witches and a demon cat.I ground my teeth together, considered a dash for the stairs and my room, but before I could bolt, Mom spoke up."Sydlynn," she said, words heavy with concern, "we need to talk about the echo you encountered."The what? Oh, right. A part of my fear faded, stomach unclenching as I realized this wasn't about my job or Evie. In fact, I hadn't done anything wrong this time, not technically. It was Mom's fault formissing him when she swept the house.A little spark of smug woke inside me as I shrugged, confidence rising."What

Chapter 6: Undead Support Club

I managed a fast, hot shower which did little to dull my mood. In fact, I spent the entire time scrubbing my skin raw while I argued with Mom in my head.Productive? Totally.By the time I snuck across the hall and back into my room, I felt even worse than before, a sullen and bitter cloud hanging over my head. It really bothered me when I slipped into petulant whiner mode, but there were times when I just couldn't help feeling sorry for myself.I figured this one was bad enough I should cut myself about a hundred years of slack.I paced my room for a while, wet hair soaking the back of my t-shirt as I struggled with what to do about the echo. No way was I going to be able to sleep up here if he repeated his popping out of nowhere performance and went all pissy on me.My stomach growled about an hour into my pity fest, but I refused to go downstairs and join Mom and Meira for dinner, even when my little sister came to my locked door and begged."Syd, it's okay," she said through

Chapter 7: Ghostly Visitor

This time I didn't freak out. Okay, I did a little, but not with the mind numbing terror which sent mescrambling last time. Instead, I reacted with magic right away, my demon power crawling in between the echo and myself, holding his bitter cold at bay.He winced as the amber flames licked at him, but didn't run when they threatened. "Give it back." His anger was a heavy, tangible weight in the cold he brought with him. I slipped the bracelet from my wrist and held it out to his ghost."I'm sorry," I said, proud my voice only shook a very little. "Here you go."He scowled at me, ghostly form shuddering as he tried twice to take it. I was grateful for the heat from my demon, keeping him from sliding his hand through mine.Frustrated, even more angry, he backed off, cold pouring from him, so much the edge of my shield misted up from the change in temperature."You do know you're dead, right?" The words slipped out before I could think how heartless they sounded. But the young ma

Chapter 8: Evie's Story

Another morning, another Mom avoidance tactic. She almost caught me as I slipped out, much later this time than yesterday thanks to another sleepless night ending with a doze pushing me past 8am.Sassafras preceded her down the stairs by a fraction of a second. He hissed at me as I dodged out the door and trotted off up the street on my way to Evie's.Though I didn't have Alex's echo to worry about, at least not when it came to being woken in fright in the middle of the night, his situation and the pressure I was under to find a way to tell his grandmother about the bracelet didn't make for an easy time, either. After a heavy day's work yesterday and two nights with little rest, I was ready to fall over.Only the stress of my predicament kept me upright and shaking like a caffeine addict on her tenth shot of espresso.The bracelet weighed heavy, almost dragging me down the street toward the salon. I knew Alex's need was feeding the burden on my shoulders, but my hissing admonishm

Chapter 9: Oh, Gram

I almost spun and went back into the staff room. So. Close.But Evie spotted Gram waving, Mom's attention to me, and rushed forward, eyes alight."You must be Sydlynn's mother." Okay, I knew we looked a little alike. "She is your absolute clone, my dear. Are you sure you're not her sister?"Gag.Mom laughed, her deep, surprised but delighted laugh, one hand rising to her gorgeous black hair. "Quite sure," she said, a new sparkle in her gaze.Eyeroll."Tell me you're here to let me do something with this amazing hair!" Evie's gushing would get old fast, but Mom didn't seem to mind.Until Gram poked her and grinned at my boss."Mine!" She danced her jig, around and around while Evie smiled and nodded."Of course, darling," she said, patting Gram's shoulder when my grandmother fell still. "And you're Syd's aunt, yes? Or young cousin?"Gram giggled behind her hands, wicked joy in her faded blue eyes. Winked.Oh boy.My stomach a knot of anxiety already, the ball of stress grew

Chapter 10: Exodus

And, as usual, it somehow came back to being my fault in the end.Mom arrived a short time-okay about five seconds-after the kerfuffle was over, fury in her face and power crackling, ready to erase memories of the normals in the salon. It was only Evie's continuing ravings about being a witch that saved her and her clients, Blue and Madge included, from having their minds wiped.While Mom was glad the boy's echo had moved on, she was furious I had failed to watch over Gram. From the startled look on her face when I told her what Gram had done, Mom wondered herself why she'd even considered leaving my grandmother in my care. As though it hadn't been her idea at all.Another thing to make me go hmmm about Gram.My grandmother fell into her worst lapse of sanity yet, barely able to focus on anything and I had to wonder if she'd somehow used up part of who she was, the woman who remained intact deep beneath the crazy, to help Evie and Alex. I felt terrible for her, guessing such was th
