Chapter 2: The Little Witch's Curse!

"A Curse Placed on My Family's Last Name?, You got to be Joking Now there's no way something like that Even Exists! Said Nathaniel."

"Well My You are a very Stubborn Boy!, Maybe this will shut you up so I can tell you about everything about why you have a so Called "Curse" from Your Family Name, Young Man! Said Theodora as she Casted a Spell on him that made him Mute."
Nathaniel Got Mad that This But Couldn't really do anything."
Evanora had Giggled a little."

"Now It Seems you are a Hathorne?,
You See Your Family Curse May Date Back to The 1600s During The Salem Witch Trails, a Brutal Year for Witches and a lot of Innocent People in Salem at the Time, I believe it was Cause my Your Ancestor John Hathorne, you know him right, the Talk of the Town to be Precise even too this day said Theodora."

"But What does this Curse Has to Do With Him, that was over a Hundred years ago? Said Evanora."
Well It May Be Beacuse the Curse was made of Powerful Hatred, You see at that time, the actual Witches and Warlocks did Escape to the other world but some did not, one of those was Relative of ours Evanora, and I Believe they were the One who put a Curse on the Hathorne Family Name said Theodora."
Nathaniel Made a Shocked Face Expression as Theodora Unmute him."

"WHAT!, So you were the People that Caused by Family and made that Tree to Go out and Try to kill me! Said Nathaniel."
Keep your voice Down, young boy! Said Theodora."

"Even if It has been a long time, that Curse has grown quite a lot, I don't have many details on it myself, but will help you break the Curse if you want, it may take some time though too do so, depending on how long the Curse is said Theodora."

"So Exactly How Long Would That Actually Take If my Family had it for about 100 years? Said Nathaniel."
Well depending this was Curse of Hatred, it may take a long time, a Grudge like this has a Powerful Grip hell bent on making your family miserable just beacuse of what one ancestor of yours did said Theodora."

"Great Why Did My Family Have to Move all the way for no reason! Said Nathaniel to himself."
Well Nathaniel Hathorne, What Do you Think of Witches Now?, Not so fake now wasn't it?, Sense you know about us being "Witches" you better not tell anyone said Evanora."

"People May Call You Crazy Even if This is Salem, and You just might get Turned into a Toad!, Trust me you don't want to be there, my mom did it before to my dad and it wasn't pretty, He was Stuck as a Slimy Frog for a Weak Until Granny Convinced her to change him back said Evanora."

"Why are you telling me that? Said Nathaniel." Oh you know just thought you might want to know said Evanora." May I help you get home? Said Theodora." Nathaniel had a Shocked Expression on his Face."

"Oh No!, I had enough of this "Magic" for a Day!, I can walk home myself said Nathaniel Leaving the Pharmacy though the Front door."
You Think He Won't Tell Anyone Granny? Said Evanora."
Oh I am sure he wouldn't, But to Make Sure, Morgana Come over here! Said Theodora." The Cat Familiar Morgana came to Theodora's Side and Transformed into a Human."

"Yo what do you need lady? Said Morgana." As she stretched like a Cat."
I want you too watch over that Boy, Nathaniel Hathorne for me, He Knows about witches and his family has a Curse, you must make sure of his wellbeing and to make sure he doesn't get into any trouble with Magic Law said Theodora."

"Yes My Lady!, Well Evanora looks like I Won't be Sleeping on Your Stomach tonight, have a Great Sleep of Getting a Breather Once in awhile said Morgana as she Transformed back and Ran Off."

"Nathaniel Finally Got Home, After Running Half the way just to get away from that "Pharmacy"."
Oh There You Are Nathaniel?, Did you Get yourself lost? Said His Mother."
No I didn't, just Ran into Someone From The School said Nathaniel." Oh was it a Girl! Said Abigail Hathorne Nathaniel's 12 Year old Sister."

"There were Still a Lot of Boxes that Needed to be unpacked and when Abigail Brought up a "Girl" this Made Nathaniel Trip over one of the Boxes."
Oh Great Abby!, You made you lose Forcus! Said Nathaniel."
Now no fighting you too, Violence Gets to Nowhere said His Mother."

"Nathaniel Went up to his Room."
Where he Layed in his Bed exhausted."
When he looked towards the Window, He Saw a Cat Staring at him, Which Shocked him, that Cat came in without any problem and Transformed into a Human form, it was Morgana."

"What The!, Oh come on! Said Nathaniel." Hello There Mr. Hathorne, I Am Morgana!, Familiar of The Waterhouse family at your service! Said Morgana."
Why did that Send a Cat! Said Nathaniel." Not just any cat, A Familiar, now look here Mr. Hathorne, I am here to watch over as an order from my master, Theodora Waterhouse said Morgana."

"Oh That Old Hag? Said Nathaniel."
Theodora Waterhouse isn't some old hag!, She was a Powerful Witch in her Youth!, And she still is just more older now then before, Evanora is her Next of Kin for Powerful Witches, and Sense you know of Witches and that you are Curse I must watch you so you are Out of harms way said Morgana."

"So they don't trust me is what you're saying, I don't care if you watch me, just stay out of my face capiche! Said Nathaniel."
I don't know what "Capiche" means expect for that Italian Move a Witch from that Area has told me, Capiche! Said Morgana doing an Italian accent."
Just to Annoy him even further."

"Great Now I Have do Deal with an Annoying Cat Humanoid Thing!, Nathaniel Thought to himself."
His Sister Abigail Entered the Room."
Brother?, Are you alright? Said Abigail." This Shocked Nathaniel that he Thought his sister was gonna see Morgana but Morgana was back in cat form purring on his leg."

"What is it Abby? Said Nathaniel."
Well I Wanted to Say I am Sorry for making you Trip over the Boxes, I was just joking, I didn't know you would take it serious? Said Abigail."
Forget it Abby, it's doesn't matter anymore, I am just sick and Tried of moving place to place just so dad can get a Easy Paying Job, we even had to move into this Old Junk of a House! Said Nathaniel."

"It's not a Junk, and Mom and Dad won't be happy you say that Nath!,
As I matter of fact these are one of the houses that was from the Old Times, Plus your room comes with a Cool Bell Top! I Wish I had that, but mom says no! Said Abigail."
Nathaniel looked at Morgana."
Hey Abby look I Brought you a New Play thing! Said Nathaniel."
Oh a Kitty! Said Abigail."
Yeah play all you want! Said Nathaniel."

"Nathaniel gaved Morgana to Abigail and shooe them away and closed his Door."
Nathaniel Made a Sigh of Relief, Believing He Finally Got Though all his obstacles for the Day to Finally Rest."
Outside the Door, Abigail Hugged Morgana a lot."
Why that Little Bastard of a Human, Eak!?, Wait until I get my claws on him!, Morgana Thought to herself."

"Oh You are So Soft and Fluffy!, I wish I could tell mom about you right now but she probably get mad and put you back outside, it's a very cold Night tonight, let's go to my room you'll love it in there, you can sit on my bed too said Abigail."

"Abigail Took Morgana too Her Room."
Placed Morgana on the Bed and Went to Open some of her Boxes."
That's When Morgana Noticed that Abigail Took out a Lamp designed as a Witches hat, and Placed it on her Desk and Plugged it in the wall."

"You know you Being a Black Cat in All of Salem is Something, But I think it's not Very Rare this is a Town of Witches after all, but I do enjoy stories of them ever since I was Younger! Said Abigail."

"Abigail, Nathaniel it's Time for Dinner, Come Downstairs Dad Will be home in a minute said Mis. Hathorne from downstairs."
Oh coming said Abigail."
Abigail left the Room leaving Morgana in her Room."
So it seems he just recently moved to Salem Depending on the Boxes, but it seems his little sister really likes witches?, Strange for a Hathorne though they probably are not very familiar with there family history that much, I mean who wouldn't if it was bad or something they just want to forget but that Curse ain't gonna let them I am afraid, perhaps I should esse stop on there Conversation a little more?, Morgana Thought to herself."
She got off Abigail's Bed and Went into human form to open the do then turned back into a Case a Lay near the stairs to hear what was from downstairs."

"So Did Dad Found a "Job" Yet? Said Nathaniel." No not really, he thought moving to Salem would be good beacuse he have family history here said Mis. Hathorne." I've already heard of that mom, and it's Being spread out at my school Said Nathaniel."
That Reminds me how was your first day? Said Mis. Hathorne."
Fine I guess, I did met someone who I found annoying though, that's all said Nathaniel." Annoying?, You mean it was a Girl? Said Abigail."
It's none of Your Business Abby! Said Nathaniel." Nathaniel don't be rude to your sister! Said Mis. Hathorne."

"Mommy Why Do We Move A lot so Daddy can find a Job? Said Abigail."
Honestly I Don't know, we have been having a lot of Financial Problems lately perhaps we can find out why? Said Mis. Hathorne."

"I love your father really, but I just don't understand why he can't get a Decent Job, it's like bad luck for him, like once I married your father, my Boss from my office job fired me right on the Spot for no reason, it's like he changed into a different person, Beacuse I never did anything wrong, yet even if that was a long time ago I still remember it said Mis. Hathorne."

"But I am glad I had you kids, beacuse I found something new for myself, and that's what makes me happy, hopefully we don't have the move again after this, though sense You are older Nathaniel, perhaps you should start looking for a Job should be helpful for dad right, being a housewife goes some duties to get a hand of said Mis. Hathorne."

"So they are having Money Problems?,
Just beacuse they were all related to the Father, I got to report this back to Theodora and Evanora quickly as possible, this might be the Information,
Of what the Curse has done to this Unfortunate Family, Morgana Thought to herself."

"Evanora was Up at Night Doing Her Homework." Jeez how can human Homework be so hard said Evanora."
That's When Morgana Appeared."
Oh hey Morgana? Said Evanora."
I suspect you would notice me Evanora said Morgana turning into a Human."

"Did you found anything on Nathaniel? Said Evanora." Well it seems his Family is Having Problems with Money, no one will hire His Parents for some reason, but I believe that's what the Curse is doing, trying to make them miserable? Said Morgana."

"So Money Problems?, I can't tell on how They were able to last 100 years with that Curse, but it looks like the Curse feels like it's gone more violent recently said Evanora."
I wonder why, should I go back and investigate more? Said Morgana."
No I think you done enough for the night, you should go rest, but I think I got an idea that will help Nathaniel, Though I don't think Granny would like it, and I don't know if it would work said Evanora."

"Well Tell me what you have in Mind,
Perhaps I Can think of something about it? Said Morgana."
Evanora went to her bookshelf and took out her Spell book."
She Opened it to a page, to a Witch's Seal."

"The Witch's Sealing Spell!?, Evanora what are you crazy!? Said Morgana."
Well most likely, but a Witch's Seal is basically a Contract with a Witch, if I can perform this Spell with Nathaniel,
Perhaps I Can Slow Down the Curse Beacuse I am a Waterhouse, and A Waterhouse was the one that placed the Curse on the Hathorne Family! Said Evanora."

"Well You Got a Point, What Makes you think this will work? Said Morgana."
I don't know?, It's just a Feeling, Witch's intuition you know said Evanora."  Witch's Intuition Huh?, Well whatever you say Evanora, Seems your gonna Need a Dagger I'll see if I can get it without Theodora noticing,
Don't be afraid of Your Own Blood, just by the Sight of it said Morgana and she Turned into a Cat and scamper off."

"Tomorrow is a Weekend, So I Won't be Caught Holding a Dagger that would be Considered a Weapon, or Get in trouble of illegal ritual, sense this is outside of The Other World for the Magic Law Said Evanora."

"The Next Day, Evanora Went to Nathaniel's House." She knocked on the door and Nathaniel's Mother Answered." Oh Hello there said Mis. Hathorne." You must be Mis. Hathorne, it's nice to Meet you, I am Evanora Waterhouse, I am in your son's Class, is Nathaniel here? I'll like to speak to him said Evanora."

"You Want to Speak with Nathaniel?,
I think he is upstairs in his Room unpacking, you see we just moved here so we are getting Boxes unpacked a little slowly then usual, but I am glad he finally met some friends here, I'll call him down said Mis. Hathorne."

"Evanora Waited outside until Nathaniel Came Out." What do you want? Said Nathaniel." Oh well I to talk to you, I believe I found a way to help your family with the "Curse" said Evanora." Nathaniel Made an Annoying Sigh."
Look here, I will say it one last time I am done with Witch's and Spells, now if that's all you came here for then leave me alone and my family! Said Nathaniel."

"Nathaniel was about to Close but Evanora put her foot against the door."
Oh Come on Nathaniel, Trust me I know it would work said Evanora."
Then How Do you Know it's Gonna Work, Does Your Grandma Know what you are doing? Said Nathaniel."
Oh not really, I am still in Training, but Trust me I Went over the it Many times in my Book, so I know It will work! You just got to trust me Said Evanora."

"What are you two talking about? Said Abigail." Abby this is none of your business! Said Nathaniel."
Oh we are working on a Science Project at school, so we are talking about the Said "Project"! Said Evanora who was obviously lying."

"A Science Project?, Hm Nathaniel how about you go hang out with her and work on the project then said Mis. Hathorne." We're you guys all eavesdropping on us talking!, Fine I'll go, but if you make anything worse I am not talking to you again! Said Nathaniel."

"Nathaniel Left With Evanora, They Went Back to Her Theodora's Pharmacy so Evanora can get her Spell book from her Bedroom."
As they Opened the Door, Evanora's mother and Theodora's Daughter Sybil Waterhouse were Talking."

"M-Mom!? Said Evanora."
Oh Evanora Sweetheart!, Your here! I was wondering where you were my little pumpkin! Said Sybil Hugging Evanora." Mom cut it out I don't got time to for This said Evanora."
Nathaniel Laughed a little."
Well looks like you got your comeuppance with your mom embarrassing you too said Nathaniel Talking to himself."

"Nathaniel Shut up! Said Evanora."
Oh is this your friend pumpkin? Said Sybil." Yeah he's my friend!, Look we have to do I protect for school, so I need to get my things so can you please let go of my now bye! Said Evanora as she Pushes her mother away and Rushed up stairs and downstairs and Grab Nathaniel and Ran away."

"What on Earth Magic is Going On With her and that boy she was with,
Something feels strange about him? Said Sybil." Oh well I guess maybe it should tell you that boy is a Hathorne? Said Theodora." A Hathorne!? Said Sybil."

"Evanora Took Nathaniel To a Wooded Area." Why are you taking me into the Woods to Do this so Called "School Project" of Yours? Said Nathaniel."
Look I had to Lie to my mom, she isn't so calm and wise like my Granny, mostly beacuse my Granny is Older but still, you know how parents are when they Flip there Tails said Evanora."

"Evanora Opened her Book, Took a piece of Chalk from A Bag she was Carrying and Draw a Pentagram on a Dirt Ground."
Uh why do you need to Draw a Pentagram? Said Nathaniel."
Well I am a Witch, this is how they do Rituals, and if you're thinking what I know you may be thinking, no this is "not cult Stuff", at least where I actually come from that is said Evanora."

"She Then Took Out Candles and Place in a Circle on the Pentagram, and Lit then up, then took out the Dagger, Morgana was able to smuggle for her."
A knife? Said Nathaniel."
We are Gonna Need to Use Our Blood for this, Your Ok with that are?, Not afraid of getting yourself cut or Looking at Blood right? Said Evanora."

"No I am not said Nathaniel."
How in the Hell, Did I Get Talked Into This!?, Nathaniel Thought to Himself."
Ok Hold Out Your Hand with Me in the Circle said Evanora."
As they Stood in the Circle, Evanora Cut Nathaniel's Hand with the Dagger and then her own, as they let there Blood on the Pentagram, it Filled up the Lines."

"Now Time for The Magic Words said Evanora."
Ancient ones of Darkness and Light,
Let Our Bonds Connect As One, Seal as together until the End, To The End of The True Goal has been Completed to It's End!, Said Evanora Casting the Spell."

"The Pentagram Glowed."
Ok now hold my bloody hand Nathaniel said Evanora."
Um ok said Nathaniel."
He Held her Blood soaked hand with his Hand."

"The Candles Fire Burned Higher and Nathaniel Felt Something Burning on his Chest." Evanora Felt the Burning on her hand."
A Pentagram Appared on Evanora's Hand and on Nathaniel's Stomach."
The Ritual was Soon Done."

"Ok I think it's over said Evanora."
What did we do? Said Nathaniel."
We completed it, it says there will be a Marking, I see my one my hand where's Yours? Said Evanora."
I think it's on my Chest? Said Nathaniel lifting his Shirt up a little to look." Is this bad? Said Nathaniel."
No I am sure it isn't? Said Evanora."

"EVANORA!!!!! Yelled Sybil."
Mom!? Said Evanora." Oh God we are so In trouble! Said Nathaniel."
WHAT ON EARTH'S MAGIC!, ARE YOU CASTING MAGIC WITH THAT HATHORNE! yelled Sybil."
But it was to help get the Curse off of him, it's fine said Evanora."
I Can't even look at you, Look I don't really care that he is a Hathorne or not, he is still a human and use magic with him, that Still against Magic Law! Said Sybil."

"What's Magic Law? Said Nathaniel."
Sybil ignored his Question."
What Type of Magic did you use! I am going to break it right now! Said Sybil."
She Grab her Wand out."
Uh I don't think it's breakable it's a Witch's Seal? Said Evanora."
WITCH'S SEAL!, YOU MADE A CONTRACT WITH HIM! Yelled Sybil."

"Sybil!, There you are what are Earth is Going on you ran out in a hurry! Said Theodora."
Mother!, My daughter made a Witch's Seal with a Hathorne!, There's no way that Spell can get removed now! Said Sybil." Really now? Said Theodora."
Theodora didn't Seem that Surprised."
I did know I was Missing my Dagger, and that Evanora was acting Strange this morning, but I never suspect she was up to some magic tricks said Theodora."

"Mom Why are you not taking this seriously! Said Sybil."
Sybil Deary Calm down yourself, Your Stressing out too much said Theodora."
Nathaniel leaned his hand on a Tree and lit on fire, before Evanora used a Water Spell to extinguish it."

"Did I Just Use Magic!? Said Nathaniel."
Sybil couldn't say anything."
Oh Well that Spell just Means you are Sharing magic with Evanora, this is gonna be tough I believe? Said Theodora."
