“Okay, Lilly lets see your water spells followed by a minor fire spell you don’t need to worry about causing damage to the house because I’ve had the basement insulated from magic getting in or out so all you have to do is show you’ve learned these spells we'll enough that I can teach you your next spell that I feel will provide you with the protection that you need from that football asshole, but more on that later.” Miss. Davis said waiting for Lilly top demonstrate

“Sure thing mom I’ll try water first.” Lilly said before concentrating on producing a small sphere of water in her hand then pushing it towards the wall. “How was that mom?” Lilly said

“Perfect dear now let’s see you cast a fire spell, that will determine if you are ready for the protection spell and if not you will learn it before the next game because I want you to be safe.” Miss. Davis said

“Mom I’m not a helpless thing who needs constant protection,” Lilly replied.

“I know dear but there are people who take advantage of girls simply because they are stronger and I want you to be safe.” Miss. Davis replied

“I guess you’re right I’ll try my hardest to learn the spells I need before next game, promise,” Lilly said smiling before she began to focus on creating a ball of fire in her hand and throwing it forward causing a small hole in the wall causing Miss. Davis jaw to drop

“Sorry mom I didn’t mean to honest please don’t be made.” Lilly pleaded.

“How could I be mad? You caused a crack in a magic proof wall, that shouldn’t be possible in any sense, you are without a doubt ready for the spell I was going to teach you but you need to dial it back you don’t cause significant harm to anyone.” Miss. Davis said happily. “Now dear I want you to use a similar technique to that of the fire excel don’t focus on the blaze but rather the heat itself and then convert into a shock of power,” she explained.

“So, lightning? “ Lilly asked confused.

“ Yes, exactly it’ll be like having a taser at all times without being in trouble. for having a weapon.” Miss. Davis explained.

“Okay, I’ll try it out on a practice dummy and see how much I need to dial it back,” Lilly said confidently before concentrating on converting the fire into an electrical force which took her a few hours but she was eventually able to produce electricity and once she was able to do that she walked up and touched the dummy and it quickly turned to dust

“Okay, so you need to dial it way back so you don’t kill anyone” Miss. Davis said calmly
before Lilly tried the spell again on another dummy snd this time it exploded sending cotton and fabric everywhere.

“Dear that was better but try again and this time try visualizing it as though you are trying to deliver a small static shock, okay?” Miss. Davis said calmly.

 Lilly tried to lower the output of her magic power to a much lower level and shocked the dummy but this time it remained intact “How was that mom?” Lilly said with a yawn.

“That was good dear but there’s no real way of knowing whether or not you did internal damage, tomorrow I’ll have the dunny with a heart monitor set up but I think that should be enough magic for the day.” Miss. Davis said

“No mom it’s fine I can continue a little bit longer,” Lilly said as she tried to cast a spell before collapsing.

“No dear it's fine honestly you worked really hard today and used a lot of energy, I think
tomorrow you have a well deserve rest you can practice more Monday after school, but for now up and get some rest.” Miss. Davis said helping Lilly up to her room for some much-deserved rest, once Lilly was in bed, Miss. Davis walked downstairs and dialed Danielle’s number

“Hey, how are things going with my little sis?” Danielle asked

“Good and she has just started on converting spells into different forms the first one lighting.” Miss. Davis explained

“Wow that was difficult for me and I knew I was a witch my whole life I can only imagine how hard it is for her since she was born with a boy body,” Danielle stated.

“Honestly Lilly is really good with basics of magic like she can pick up spells fairly quickly however when she uses certain magics she goes all out which is where she is struggling.” Miss. Davis replied

“I figured as much but enough about her studies in magic how is she doing in school?” Danielle asked

“She is honestly doing way better than she was as Joey she is more outgoing and she wants to jump right into this naively it’s honestly adorable.” Miss. Davis said happily

“I’m glad to hear it she always did talk about all the things she’d do as a girl and now she can actually do them!” Danielle gushed

“Yeah, she actually had her first game as co-captain of the cheer squad yesterday,” Miss. Davis said

“Really! You didn’t tell me she made the squad and made co-captain too, I’m so happy for her! Do you have any pictures?” Danielle said happily.

“I’m her mother, of course, I have pictures.” Miss. Davis said with a slight chuckle

“We'll don't leave me hanging send them over!” she said excitedly

Shortly after Miss. Davis sent over the photos and Danielle gushed.

“Oh my god, she is sooo cute! Bet the boys were all over her to bad for them she is both taken and gay huh” she said with a slight laugh

“Unfortunately it didn't stop this creepy football player from hitting on her and threatening to hurt her hence why she is learning form change magic so soon.” Miss. Davis said

“If any little punk harms my little sis they will have hell to pay!” Danielle said angrily

“Speaking of which have you found anything out about the coven and if they have plan’s for Lilly?” Miss. Davis asked worriedly

“Sadly I couldn’t get any information other than they are planning on using her for something, but I do know one thing is for sure, our parents are the leaders of the coven and they know Joey is Lilly,” Danielle said in a concerned tone.\

“So it's even more important that she learn protection magic asap.” Miss. Davis said.

“Correct I’ll relay this to the grand council, I thought I’d let you know before so” Danielle said

“Okay stay safe out there.” Miss. Davis said before hanging up the phone and going to bed.

Lilly woke up late Sunday afternoon realizing she missed breakfast and walked downstairs to her mom sitting at the dining room table grading papers at the dining room

“Hey sweetie I’m just working on grading papers so you are on your own for lunch today sorry,” Her mom said grabbing another paper from the stack in front of her.

“It’s fine mom I can find something for myself to eat that isn’t too difficult,” Lilly replied before walking into the kitchen to see what she wanted to make before quickly deciding on some leftover pizza from Friday, she sat at the dining room table and ate her pizza before going up to her room and seeing she missed a call from Abby and called her back

“Heyyy, what’s up?” how did things go with your mom yesterday?” Lilly asked

“It was alright we talked and I’m a bit more understanding of why her work is important and she is understanding of why I was upset,” Abby replied.

“That’s good I’m glad things worked out between you two it makes me sad when you guys fight,” Lilly said

“Hey Lil, I’m sorry I snapped at you on Friday I honestly didn’t mean to and shouldn’t have directed my frustration towards you.”

“Abbs it’s fine honestly I shouldn’t have pushed it and that is my fault and I’m sorry for running off like I did, that wasn’t safe and I’m sorry,” Lilly said apologetically.

“Lil you’re fine honestly we both need to be better at communicating our feelings,” Abby said

“Agreed,” Lilly replied “, so what do you have planned today?” she asked.

“Well, I thought I’d finish up homework and just hang out, why?” Abby replied

“I was just curious I finished it earlier with my mum being a teacher and all that ya know,” Lilly said.

“Sorry I can’t hang with you my mom has been on me about my grades since I joined the squad, she’s worried for nothing tho right?” Abby said

“Are you kidding you are in the top ten of the class, I’m not even that high she’s worrying for nothing,” Lilly replied

“Exactly! I better go before mom finds me on the phone instead of working, bye have a good day mwa,” Abby said hanging up the phone leaving Lilly to wonder her room and practice guitar a little bit and singing for a few hours before her mom came into her room and told her that she should get ready for sleep.
