I don't know whats going on.Everything that was my normal before is going up in flames and things are happening that I cant explain. I cant even tell my friends. So I'm going to tell you.
what is it that everybody writes? oh yea....
Dear Diary,
Two weeks ago this is what my life would have been like. i would have woken up, taken a shower and, went downstairs to go listen to my mothers daily lecture. this is what she would say. She's said it everyday for my 15 years of life.
"OK Miranda now i know your 15 but that doesn't mean you can do what ever you like. you have your responsibility as a teenager to go to school and get an education and be something in life. your only a teenager once in life enjoy it but do the right thing. i hope god blesses you in every way possible. now get your ass to school".
i would have pretended to listen nodding my head every once in a while. After her lecture i would have eaten breakfast and left to take the 5 min walk to school but instead of the usual i got the unusual.
One week before my 16Th birthday my mother did not give me her lecture instead this is what my morning looked like.i still did the usual woke up took a shower and prepared my self to listen to her stupid boring lecture. to my surprise my mother did not say the usual to me she looked at me with a worried expression and asked me how i was feeling.
"I'm fine mom why?" i asked bewildered.
She looked at me again and went on a rant about how ill be 16 in a week and my whole is going to change and how shes tried to stop it but nothing worked. she was pacing with one hand on her back and the other on her forehead. i was worried my mother was going to go crazy i didn't know what to say to her instead i just sat there and watched her talk about my life changing in a week. i finally decided to stop her
"MOM!! what are you talking about?!" she stoped in her tracks and looked at me with a worried expression.
"Oh honey" she said and came to me and put her hands on both sides of my face."I'm so sorry I cant stop it.It's going to happen either way"
I looked at her confusion written all over my face. she told me to have a seat and she would explain everything to me what was going to happen to me on my 16Th birthday. Get ready for this cause you are never going to believe it....
I just heard an explosion outside I have to go. I think I'm in danger. I'll write again to tell you what my mother said. Ill explain everything when i get the chance.

So where did I leave off? Oh wait I almost forgot.
Dear Diary,
I think I'm safe for now. so I'm taking my time and writing to you. The last time I wrote I told you that i would tell you what my mother told me. so here it goes.
"My lovely beautiful Miranda. I wish that your father was still around to help you in this difficult time" she took a deep breath and continued. "I know you have no idea what I'm talking about but once i tell you, you have to promise me you wont tell any one not even your closets friends."
At this point my mind and pulse were racing. Until this moment my mother has never brought up my father ever since his death when i was 9. I was never to ask for him, I wasn't allowed to go to his funeral or even visit his grave. I asked my mother once if she could take me to go see my dads grave so that i could say goodbye and she slapped me and told me i was never to speak of him again. I didn't even know how he died, I walked in on my mother crying one day and she told me that daddy was gone, all i wanted was closure but I did as my mother asked and never brought it up or asked again.So for her to tell me now that she wishes my father was here was a complete shock. My throat was getting swollen with every memory -that shot across my mind- of my father. I took a deep breath and looked at my mother so she can continue.
"Your father sweet heart, was a powerful warlock who gained respect of many but had plenty enemies as well. He was a good man, there was not an evil bone in his body. he died trying to save you Miranda"
She went on to tell me that on my birthday I was to become one of the strongest witches of my time. That I was going to have some kind of power that could possibly change the world. she also told me that there were going to be people, "evil people" coming after me to try and take my Magick or try and turn me over to the "Dark side". I started to laugh cause i suddenly felt like i was in an episode of charmed. My mother looked at me like i was crazy and she asked me if I was OK. my laughter broke off and i looked at her.
"I don't know mom you tell me. You just told me that I'm a "witch" not just any witch but a powerful witch. That theres something "evil" coming after me for this "power" that I didn't even know I had or think I want. that I've been lied to my whole life and to top it all off my father died because of me! how do you expect me to be jumping for joy? wrong." I was exasperated and I shook my head to clear it.
She stood up and started pacing again like there was more that she needed to tell me and she couldn't find the words. I saw the worry lines in my mothers forehead getting deeper and deeper. I couldn't take it any more and I finally stood up and stopped her."just spit it out." I told her. We stood there and she continued. she told me that my father belonged to the witches council and that hes always trusted them. She told me that this council was made up of 13 witches and warlocks and that they made up rules for young witches, like myself, to follow. She told me that they would teach me how to control my powers and use it the "good way". She also told me that they would be coming here the day of my birthday to take me to a school where I can be taught these things. So with everything that was just dropped on me all I could think of was, this bitch is sending me to Hogwarts. After that my mind went blank and I blurted "I'm late for school" I grabbed my bag and headed for the door. Of course the school day went by fast and when I went home. I wasn't in the mood to speak nor was I hungry so I went straight to my room shut the door and went to my laptop to look up "witches" . All i got was fictional stories that were no help at all.
The week went by quickly and I hadn't spoken to my mom since that "Drop the bomb on Miranda day." Then when I thought everything was going back to normal, one day before my 16Th birthday my life went to hell and the next thing I knew my mother and I where on the run. It started when I was on my way home from school and I felt like some one was watching me. I turned around and found no one there I shook it off and told myself I was being paranoid. I continued to walk but with a little extra pep in my step. I finally arrived home only to find my mother frantically packing things. She looked at me and yelled "go pack your things now!" I didn't argue and went straight upstairs. I packed the most important things to me you, my laptop, my Ipod (what can i say i needed my music) my cell phone and my phone charger. Not caring about anything else I sat to write in you for the 1st time since I got you for my 13Th birthday. My mother had given you to me and told me that my father had one and that he bought you for me. She decided to give you to me on my 13Th birthday, she said she figured I would need someone to talk to about my teenage years or now that I think of it she new this day would come and that I would need someone to vent to.
I was almost about to explain to you what was going on when I heard the explosion outside. Everything went black and all I saw where flashes of light like lighting. I ran to my window and attempted to look outside but was blinded by the growing fire outside. My mother yelled for me so I grabbed my bag and ran downstairs. She did not hesitate as soon as I hit the bottom step she grabbed my hand and bolted out the door, down the street, around the corner, and threw an alley. She finally stopped at a sewer hole. She unhitched the top and made me climb in first. I was disgusted but I did it any way and waited for her at the bottom. I didn't want to look around the horrible smell was enough for me. My mother lead me to an under ground safe house that my father had made cause he knew this day would come. I couldn't see anything that was going on while I was running I was to busy trying not to trip over my own feet so I have no idea whats going on up there but it cant be good. I asked my mother what we where going to do and all she said was " The witches council will find us". I rolled my eyes.
I'm writing to you now while I watch my mother pace again. I cant worry about her right now I have worries of my own. My biggest worry? these powers that I'm getting tomorrow. Thanks to these stupid powers my whole life is upside down. One thing I know for sure i will get it right side up again but for now I'm going to try and get some sleep, in this hell hole. I'll tell you what happens next when i find out myself.
From the hell hole down under yours truly,
~Miranda Heart

Hey Diary,
So its been 2 days since my last entry. So you know what that means. Yup, i got my powers and let me tell you it was SO PAINFUL! I was sitting on the floor on some old flat mattress abosluty hating my birthday. i kept telling myself that this has got to be the worst sweet 16 ever!! i sat there and gave my mother the evil eye but she didn't even notice she was to busy looking at her watch every 5 seconds.I was going to write in you that day but then my mother got up abruptly and said "its time" and looked at me (My mother was acting so strange these past few days geesh). My stomach turned and just when i was about to ask what it was time for. when this bright light came threw the shitty door. It looked like it was looking for something. Of course that something was me. It came towards me with the speed on a 90 MPH baseball and that's exactly what it felt like, like 3 baseballs hitting my chest and instead of falling i was lifted into the air. this force of light or my powers i guess started to spread within me. From the crown of my head to the tips of my pedicured toes and then i fell. Just like that , you would think these powers would set me down gracefully but of course not i just dropped. I was starting to really hate these powers so far. I stayed down and started to examine myself nothing felt different about me. i didn't feel powerful or ready to fight the evil that was after me. My mother rushed to me and asked if i was OK. i told her i didn't know and tried to get up, but i couldn't i was to weak to even stand. my mom helped me up but i couldn't stand up straight. I felt like Bambi trying to walk for the 1st time. My mother sat me back down on the mattress and continued to look at me
"Mom threes nothing new about me so will you stop staring at me already" i tried to shout it but it only came out as a whisper.
I felt it then the new power that i had and the urge to use it.I just didn't know how. Should i wiggle my nose and wish for something to happen? Do I point my finger? cross my arms like a genie? i didn't know what to do and so i suddenly felt excited about this school that i was supposed to go to. Just Where was the witches council and when where they coming for us? My mom told me i needed to rest so i leaned on my pillow and attempted to get some rest but as soon as i closed a females voice in my head
"Miranda this is Lexi from the witches council congrats on your powers coming to you today its how I'm able to speak to you mentally. We've been trying to find you but where you are seems to be heavily protected by magic. Can you tell us where you are?"
my head snapped up and i got a head rush in the process. My mother looked at me and asked me what was wrong and i told her about the voice in my head and told her in was some lady named Lexi. she told me that she was the high priestess of the witches council and that i should tell her where we are so she can come and get us. Easy for her to say. i didn't even know how to do that! she told me to hurry and i waved her off trying to get back this Lexi person. I lay ed back down and closed my eyes i figured if this was the way she got to me in the 1st place shell be able to do it again and i can tell her where we are. Sure enough as soon as i was calm enough and ready to speak Lexi was back in my head. She didn't say anything but i felt her presence there some how. I didn't know what i was doing but instead of telling Lexi where we were i showed her. She watched my memories of the day my mother took me by the hand and led me to this safe house. She blinked out for a second -I knew she did cause i couldn't feel her anymore- and then she came back.
"OK Miranda we know where you are and where coming to get you and your mother" i felt an overwhelming calm come over me when she said this i felt safe and protected for the 1st time since this whole mess started."just sit tight and we'll be there as soon as we can" she said. i laughed and thought "well where else are we gonna go?" she chuckled and told me she was glad i was being brave. she also told me she was looking forward to meeting me and teaching me the ways of the witches. i nodded my head i wasn't as enthusiastic as she was. She nodded in understanding and told me she would see me soon and blanked back out. I op end my eyes and saw my mom staring at me. Geesh get a grip mom I'm not a science experiment. I told her everything that was said and she looked a bit relaxed like i was. I just want to get out of here it stinks and i want to shower! any way I'm sitting here its 2 days later and where still waiting for the witches council. For witches they sure know how to take there time.
I couldn't write in you yesterday cause i was to weak to pick up the pen. I'm still pretty weak but i can move around now. I'm still trying to figure out how to use my powers but i cant seem to make any magic happen. My mother says that it ll take time to get a full handle on my powers and that i will be taught everything i need to know about my powers to be patient. Ive never been the patient type but i guess ill wait. I dint want to do something that i cant clean up, like start a fire. Although that would be pretty cool but i wouldn't know how to stop it. I asked my mother about my father today and she shot me a warning glance. i told her i had a right to know now that this was happing to me. Her face soft end and she told me that she would tell me all about him when she was ready. i was about to argue that she had 7 years to be ready when i heard the unhitching of the sewer entrance. my hearts stopped for just a second and then i heard a familiar voice call my name. It was Lexi she found us! My mom went to the door and unlocked the door and let her in. She wasn't alone but i couldn't see the other just yet they where still in the darkness of the sewer. Lexi was gorgeous her skin a was almost a rich honey nut complexion and she seemed to be glowing. She wore this beautiful long white dress that dispute the dirty sewer did not look dirty at all. Her eyes where a rich green color. and her hair was pulled up in to enter laced braids that created a crown on the top on her head. She looked at me and smiled and i was blown away by the comfort i found in her smile. She reached for me and i went to her without hesitation and she wrap ed her arms around me in an embrace. she smelled of all different types of flowers all at once but it smelled wonderful. If this is what it was going to be like as a witch i will gladly take it. she released me and told me to get my things. Shes speaking to my mother now while i write to you she told me that i could before i leave cause i wouldn't get a chance for a couple of days. How she even knew i kept a diary is beyond me but i didn't question it. ill write again as soon as i can and tell you about this school that I'm going to. She told me i would have my own room and a room mate (oh great). i hope i like. Anyway i have to go now. Talk to you soon i promise.
Yours truly

Hey Diary,
OK so this is going to be a short entry. i had to write to you and tell you about my new home and since Lexi told me i wouldn't be able to write to you, I figured any chance i get i should at least write something. So this is what happened after Lexi found us.
Lexi and her 2 unidentified men escorted us up to the top and immediately put us in a car. Lexi however did not come with me or my mother instead she stood outside and waved her arms around for a second before she let the driver take off. I noticed why i couldn't see the guys that where with her apparently they where wearing capes. Why? i don't know exactly but i knew i was going to find out eventually. Anyway the car took off and took us to a helicopter pad where a chopper was waiting for us. To my surprise so was Lexi. She ushered us into the copter and it took off almost immediately after my mother and i where safely inside. The helicopter took us to an unknown destination and we all filed out. On our where to what was hopefully our final destination i started to get antsy and asked a few questions.
"So where is it exactly that where going?". Lexi looked over at me and smiled."Well where going to the school. Its where we a live and its the most safest place for a witch to be"
"And this school is called?".she came over to me and put her arm around me. "Its called Spellbound And its absolutely magnificent." i kinda liked the name for some reason it made me feel like anything can happen.
we walked a little more and then we turned and there was Spell Bound. It was absolutely amazing! it looked like an old medieval castle. A little like hog warts but bigger and more spectacular. It was then that i realized that our UN known location was an island. I was in awe and i stared at the castle with my mouth hanging open. Yea let me tell you how embarrassing that was when i noticed. I picked up my jaw and continued to walk with Lexi and my mother, I noticed the 2 men weren't with her anymore. I wondered why but then i shook it off.
I walked in there the entrance and it looked more spectacular inside then out. There where candles everywhere to keep the halls ways lit and beautiful paintings on every wall. The was where old style brick just like the inside of an old england castle. "This place is amazing" i whispered to myself. Lexi took my hand and told me she was going to show me my room right after she went to the office. She told me to wait in the library. My mother and I did as we where told and headed for library, which was easy to find. There where signs directing us every step of the way.
We made it to the library and boy oh boy, this library was full of old and new books from wall to wall and some isles in between. i was really starting to like this school! We took a seat in one of the many tables and just waited. I'm sitting here now writing to you and waiting for Lexi to show us my room or our room? where was my mother going to go? hmmm i haven't thought about that yet? is that why my mother has been so quiet? I have to go. I must speak to my mother and ask her these questions. Ill write again when i can.
Yours truly
~Miranda Heart
