"Bitchcraft"

Please enjoy and review!

Standing in the middle of an airport in Louisiana, a 15 year old girl with raspberry colored hair, tanned skin and brown eyes was looking around nervously.

It was her first time in Louisiana and she was thrilled that she was going to be living in New Orleans, but she was anxious over the reason why she was there.

When she was a little girl, she had been watching a movie about a black cat that seemed to be always getting into trouble and she started acting just like it for fun.

But then, much to her surprise, she had transformed into a black kitten and she panicked over it, scared over how she had done it and how to change back.

The only person who knew was her father who had found her that way and he told her to keep it a secret from her mother and older sister since he was worried they wouldn't understand.

Her father had a feeling that something odd would happen to her as she grew older since there were a few signs when she was a child.

He wanted to keep this little fact a secret from everyone though since she was so special to him.

Over the years, she had learned how to control her newly discovered powers, being able to transform at will and even managed a few half transformations that made her label herself as a werecat.

She had perfect control of her abilities and felt like she didn't have anything to worry about, until one day something shocking happened to her that changed her mind.

A group of students were sitting in the computer lab of the high school, completing their project for english class.

"Hey, Daisy, are you almost done?" A blond boy with peach toned skin, azure blue eyes and golden blond hair asked.

The raspberry haired girl, Daisy Motomiya, glanced over at the boy, TK Takaishi, who was sitting beside her and grinned.

"Almost. I just got to save this and then I'm done." Daisy said.

On the other side of the girl was a boy with shoulder length navy colored hair, pale skin and bright blue eyes who glanced over at her and smiled in encouragement.

"I'm glad to hear that." Ken Ichijouji told her.

"By the way, what are we going to do for your birthday? It's a few weeks away." TK brought up.

Daisy was meant to be born in late September, but her mother had issues with the pregnancy which ended in her giving birth to her youngest daughter in late October.

The doctors assumed she would be born November 1st, but Daisy had other ideas and decided to come out October 31st instead, making her a Halloween baby.

Her friends all thought it was exciting to be born on a holiday and thought it would make celebrating her birthday even more fun.

"Not a clue. I think Yolei may be planning something. I saw her running around shopping with Mimi the other day." Daisy said as she typed on the keyboard.

"I think she might be planning on some sort of Halloween/Sweet Sixteen party for you. I'm a little worried over what type of costumes Yolei may have picked out for us to wear." Ken grimaced.

His girlfriend could be very crazy when it came to parties and he was worried over how extravagant Yolei Inoue would go with their friend's birthday.

Groaning as Daisy felt her head throb, the girl tried to shake off the pain.

"Yeah, well, hopefully I'm be okay enough to enjoy it." Daisy groaned.

"You still have those migrains?" TK noticed.

It had been a few days that the girl had been suffering through the migrains while her body would heat up and it made TK worry over her.

When someone would bring it up, she would smile and shrug it off as something caused by stress since exams would be coming up soon.

"They feel worst today for some reason, but it must be because of this project. It is worth 60% of our grade." Daisy shrugged.

"This doesn't seem normal. Maybe you should go see a doctor. I'm sure Joe's dad could see you if we asked." Ken insisted.

Just as Daisy was about to smile and tell her friends they had nothing to worry about, an intense pain spiked through her skull much to her shock and it caused her to jolt up in her seat.

Hissing in pain, the girl hunched over the table which caused her friends to quickly stand and hover around her.

"Daisy, are you okay?" TK gasped.

"What's going on over there?" The teacher demanded.

Whimpering in pain, Daisy tried to will it away, but it grew more intense as her body heated up to an alarming degree and she felt her spine tingling as her tail and ears almost popped out in front of everyone, but she reeled it in.

Finally, unable to handle it, Daisy decided to let the pain consume her and she felt it fade away as soon as she released it, her body feeling at ease for the first time in days.

Screaming was then heard and Daisy looked over to find that the computer in front of her had erupted into flames and she was being dragged away by Ken as the teacher herded the students out.

Snapping out of the memory of what happened a week ago, Daisy made her way over to claim her bags that were filled with her clothes, laptop, cell phone and everything else that her father helped her pack up.

The fire, she now knew, she had been the cause of it.

Everyone managed to escape safely and the only part of the school that was damaged was the computer lab.

When the fire department arrived to access the damages, they concluded it was a faulty wiring problem that caused the inferno that destroyed the computer lab.

As for David Motomiya, he knew better.

Walking into his youngest daughter's room, David watched as the girl sobbed into her pillow, upset over the fire that she knew she had created.

"Daisy, we need to talk." David spoke up.

Looking up from her pillow, Daisy turned towards her father and the man felt his heart ache at the sight of despair and guilt on her face.

"Am I a bad person?" She whimpered.

"No. No, no, no. Never think that way." David exclaimed.

Making his way over to the bed, the black haired man pulled his daughter into his arms and comforted her as she sobbed into his chest.

"This is my fault. I saw the signs that you had special gifts ever since you were a baby. I should have warned you or helped prepare you better. I wish I knew what it is you're going through, but I don't. Listen, sweetheart. I need to tell you about something." David said.

Pulling slightly out of the embrace, Daisy met her father's blue eyes and gave him a curious expression.

"There's a school in New Orleans. It's a safe place for girls like you. You can learn how to control your gifts there." David informed.

He had come across a website for the school a few years earlier when he worried about his daughter's powers growing and knew he would have to send her there one day.

"Are you sending me away?" Daisy asked in surprise.

David gave her a despaired expression as he stared down into her eyes.

"I don't want to, but I know it's what's best for you. You can be with others like you who will help you master your powers. It'll be for the best, sweetheart." David promised.

Going silent for a moment, Daisy began to think it over.

She had no control over the new power, Pyrokinesis, that she had just awakened and would need to learn how to control it or else she could hurt someone.

TK and Ken, two of the most important people she cared about, had almost gotten hurt because of her and she would never forgive herself if they hadn't escaped the fire.

"Okay. I'll go." Daisy nodded and wiped away her tears.

"Are you sure?" David asked.

He felt awful that this needed to be done, but she needed help.

"Yeah. I'm sure." Daisy said.

Nodding in understanding, David leaned forward and pressed a kiss to his daughter's forehead.

"I love you, kitten. And I have always been proud of you. Never forget that." Davis told her.

Daisy smiled up at her father before he left to make the call to the school and she began to pack what she would need.

Grabbing her bags, Daisy then glanced around at the people and wondered where she should go.

Her father told her that when she landed in the airport, that someone would be there to pick her up and take her to the school.

She stood there for a few minutes, confused, unsure of who she should be looking for or where to go.

"Daisy?" A female voice called.

Turning around, Daisy saw a beautiful woman with bright blonde hair, fair skin and dark brown eyes standing behind her with a kind smile on her face.

"Are you the lady in charge of the school?" Daisy asked.

"Yes, I'm Cordelia Foxx the headmistress of Miss Robichaux. It's nice to finally meet you. How was your flight?" She questioned.

"I was kinda freaking out. I mean, I've been on a plane before, but I never had to worry about setting it on fire because I got too emotional." Daisy said.

Cordelia smiled in understanding and grabbed two of the bags that the girl brought with her.

"But you managed just fine. I think you have more control than you realize. Come on. It's time to see your new home." Cordelia told her.

Nodding, the raspberry haired girl followed after the older witch as they made their way out of the airport and over to a black car.

"I hope you don't mind, but I had to get some groceries along the way. We only have one staff member at the school and I needed him to stay behind to watch the other students. Also, a member of the council went out to pick up another girl who we found a few days ago." Cordelia explained.

"So, I won't be the only new student." Daisy stated.

"That's right. She recently learned that she was a witch when her powers suddenly awoke." Cordelia informed.

Placing her bags in the car and then climbing inside, Daisy watched as the scenery went by as Cordelia drove off to the school.

Soon enough, Cordelia pulled up to a large white mansion that had a black iron gate around it.

"Whoa, it's huge!" Daisy exclaimed.

Cordelia chuckled at that as she thought back to the first time her mother had dropped her off at the school.

"I was sent here when I was your age. I was a bit scared myself and upset that I had to come here, but I learned to love this place as time went on. It became my home." She said.

"I think the only thing I'm looking forward to is getting to finally see New Orleans for myself. It's one of the places I always wanted to visit." Daisy said making Cordelia smile at her.

Parking the car, Cordelia then led Daisy inside the house while an old man dressed in a black suit with long grey hair started unloading the lugage.

Screaming was heard which made Daisy jump in shock and Cordelia sighed in annoyance.

"What was that?" Daisy asked.

"That was some of the girls causing trouble." Cordelia said as she made her way into the house.

Chasing after the blonde woman, Daisy then peaked around her to see a room filled with portraits of various women hung on the walls.

There were four teenage girls in the room, all of them dressed in black.

A girl in a black dress and sweater was sitting on the table, looking startled as her dirty blonde hair was a bit messy and her hazel eyes were wide.

Standing in front of her were three girls dressed in black robes wearing masks with bird peaks, but they were taking them off to reveal they were students.

"Jesus, Sabrina, relax. We're just messing with you." A girl with pale skin and brown eyes said as she flipped her blonde hair over her shoulder.

"Holy shit, are you?" The dirty blonde asked in surprise.

"Madison Montgomery. Movie star." The girl blonde in the robe smirked.

"Shit. When was the last time you were in a movie?" The large African American girl scoffed.

"I'm Nan, hi." The brunette with Down Syndrome greeted kindly.

"Zoe." The dirty blonde girl said

"Queenie." The large girl greeted.

"Soo bored now." Madison muttered.

"So, is this all of you?" Zoe asked staring at the girls.

"At the moment." Cordelia spoke up.

Everyone turned to stare at the woman and the teenager standing beside her.

"Cordelia Foxx. Headmistress. All right, girls, there's a van full of groceries that needs unloading. I'll show Zoe and Daisy to their rooms, then we'll gather for midday gathering. Let's go." Cordelia ordered.

Madison seemed to be mentally grumbling and tossed her mask onto the table, making Zoe jump a bit.

Giving the girl a comforting smile, Cordelia gestured for Zoe to join her and Daisy.

"Zoe Benson, this is Daisy Motomiya. She's another new student here. I hope you both will get along with the rest of the girls. Although, Madison will take some time to get used to." Cordelia informed.

"Hi." Zoe gave the Japanese girl a small smile.

"Hey." Daisy greeted with a more open smile, one that radiated warmth.

"Come on girls, let's go." Cordelia said as she herded them towards their rooms.

Zoe was going to share a room with Madison, but Daisy was given her own room since there was an odd number of girls at the school, but f a new student arrived, she would be rooming with the half-Asian girl.

"Miss Robichaux's Academy for Exceptional Young Girls was established as a premier finishing school in the 1790's. During the civil war, it was converted into a military hospital. Afterwards, it came under new management. Our management. In 1868, Marianne Warton, a prominent east coast society matron, early suffragette, and author of several children's books and as it turned out, the reigning Supreme of that time, purchased this facility, retaining the name as a cover, establishing a safe haven where witches could gather to learn. In its heyday, the academy was home to as many as 60 girls. Over the years, those numbers dwindled." Cordelia explained.

Once she was finished with showing the girls to their rooms, Cordelia gathered all of the students in the ancestry room where she could explain the history of the school to the new comers.

It was also a way for them to learn more about each other and their powers.

"Why?" Zoe asked after the history lesson.

"We're a dying breed, Zoe. Many families who knew they carried the bloodline made a choice not to reproduce." Cordelia informed.

That made Daisy think back to what her father told her.

David said he noticed that something was different about her since she was a baby.

Did he know about her being a witch and could the magic have come from his bloodline?

"So, what's a Supreme?" Zoe questioned.

"An average witch is born with few natural gifts. But in each generation, there is one woman who embodies countless gifts. Some say all of them. She is the Supreme." Cordelia told her.

"Are you the Supreme?" Zoe innocently asked.

Queenie chuckled, and Madison looked highly amused.

Daisy looked at them, annoyed with the way they seemed to be mocking Cordelia who looked uncomfortable with the question.

"No. I'm like you. Just a witch. And a teacher. I'm here to help you identify your gifts and teach you how to control them." Cordelia shook her head and explained to Zoe and Daisy.

"She means supress them." Queenie interjected.

"Not suppression. Control." Cordelia corrected.

"She thinks it's still the 1600's." Madison said.

"No, back then our kind understood the dangers. Today, so many families know nothing of their ancestry. Too many girls aren't lucky enough to have found us or weren't identified to us in time for us to have found them. Like that poor Cajun girl outside Lafayette a few months back. Misty Day. She wasn't that much older than any of you. And she had a gift, the power of resurgence. Misty could reach into that place between life and death and draw a soul back from the precipice, back to this side. Back to life. To some, this appeared to be the God-touched power of resurrection. To others, necromancy." Cordelia said sadly.

"So, what happened to her?" Zoe asked.

"The same thing that has happened to women like us throughout the centuries." Cordelia stated.

"What? Did they burn her at the stake?" Daisy asked in disbelief.

Cordelia was silent and everyone became disturbed when they realized that that was exactly what happened to Misty.

"Jesus." Madison muttered at the horrible news.

"We are under siege, ladies. Our lives, our very existence, is always at risk. Know this or face extinction." Cordelia warned.

When the meeting was complete, everyone went back to their rooms until it was time for dinner.

Returning to her bedroom, Daisy began to unpack her things and put them away before heading off to the private bathroom she had to wash up after the long flight from Japan.

Washing herself, Daisy stepped out of the bathroom, freshly clean and her hair smelling of apples before she got dressed in a pair of jeans and a white tube top.

She then hooked a rose quartz necklace around her neck that was on a silver chain and started brushing through her long hair.

Having long hair was a pain to deal with, but Daisy kept it at that length since Jun and Yolei had both pitched a fit about her cutting it since they thought it was beautiful the way it was.

Finished with her hair, Daisy then pulled out her D-Terminal and checked over the messages her friends had all sent her, telling her about what she was missing back home.

Yolei was also complaining about how she wouldn't be able to go through with the party she had been planning, but Daisy informed her to do it anyway since she already bought the costumes and decorations.

After talking with her friends and making them know that she had arrived at her new boarding school safely, Daisy quickly got bored and decided to wander around the building.

Making her way down the stairs, the raspberry haired girl started exploring every room of the mansion, her curiosity getting the best of her.

Locating the kitchen, Daisy walked inside and found a man with tanned skin, dark hair and eyes who was sipping from a coffee mug.

"Um, hi." Daisy greeted in confusion.

Looking over at the girl, the man gave her a smile and set the mug down.

"Hey, you must be one of the new students. I'm Hank Foxx." He said as he held his hand out.

Smiling, Daisy accepted Hank's hand and shook it as the man seemed to be soaking up the possitive energy he felt from the girl.

"Foxx? Are you…" Daisy trailed off.

"Cordelia's husband, yeah." He confirmed.

"So, are you a…a warlock?" Daisy asked wondering if that was the proper term.

He chuckled at that and shook his head.

"No, I'm human. But I am supportive of all this. I wouldn't marry a witch if I wasn't." Hank grinned.

Daisy shrugged at that and moved to sit at the table while Hank joined her, bringing over a plate of cookies.

"So, you're…Daisy, right? Cordelia said you were half-Japanese and I think I can see a little bit of these Asian features in your face." Hank said.

"Yeah, that's me. My parents are both a mix of different cultures. Most of the people in Odaiba are like that." Daisy said as she nibbled on a cookie when Hank offered the plate to her.

"I've got a mixture in me, too. My ancestors were from Europe." Hank informed.

"Cool." Daisy grinned.

Hank grinned back, feeling oddly at ease and comfortable around the girl.

There was something about her that radiated warmth and goodness, something that he didn't feel from the rest of the girls at the school.

"I'll admit, I'm a bit surprised. The girls here don't really like talking to me. The second they see me, they scoff or roll their eyes and walk away." Hank commented.

That caused the girl to blink in confusion at the news.

"Why would they do that?" Daisy asked.

"It's probably because it's in their DNA to act that way around men. When it comes to magic users, women are the dominate ones. Men, especially warlocks, are meaningless to them. Something they can just trample over." Hank explained.

Shocked by what she heard, Daisy's face scrunched up in disbelief at what she learned.

If anyone tried to treat any of the boys she was friends with like that, she would destroy that person for it.

"That sounds terrible!" Daisy exclaimed.

Hank simply shrugged, having gotten used to being treated badly by the witches of the coven, especially the Supreme.

"You learn to not let it bother you after a while." Hank said.

"That doesn't make it any better. I mean, men have treated women like trash for centuries. We're no better than them if we do the same thing." Daisy stated.

Staring into the girl's eyes, Hank was able to tell that she was different from the rest of the witches he had met.

"Maybe things will change if a better Supreme rises." Hank commented leaving Daisy confused.

Deciding to leave that conversation behind, Hank began telling Daisy all about how he met Cordelia and how they got married despite how much her mother hated him.

(Later on…)

Hank had gone out and Cordelia was in her office doing paperwork while the butler, Spalding, served the girls their dinner.

"Hey Jeeves, can I get some iceberg lettuce and blue cheese?" Madison asked.

"Girl be nice to Spalding. Poor bastard ain't got no tongue." Queenie scolded.

"Is that true, Jeeves? Did you use your tongue for something wicked? Or maybe you just suck at going down." Madison taunted.

Setting Zoe's bowl down in front of her, Spalding turned to the cart and started pushing it out of the dining room.

Daisy glared at Madison, feeling disgusted by the girl who seemed to think it was appropriate for her to talk to someone like that.

It angered Daisy and she had to fight hard to not loose control and set the girl on fire or claw her face apart.

It seemed like Hank was right about the way the witches treated the men around them.

"Oh, come on, Jeeves! Show us your stub! Maybe we can put it to use." Madison called after him.

Once Spalding was gone, Madison turned her attention onto Zoe and Daisy who were sitting beside her.

"So, new girls, what are you in for?" Madison asked, and Zoe looked like a deer in headlights.

"I accidentally set the computer lab on fire." Daisy shrugged as she ate her stew.

Madison's eyes seemed to light up in fascination while Zoe seemed surprise.

The pink haired teen seemed sweet and not capable of doing something like that.

"Did anyone die?" Madison asked.

"No. It just destroyed that one part of the school. Everyone got out in time, thank God." Daisy said.

"Well, that's boring. And what about you?" Madison asked Zoe.

"Her boyfriend." Nan stated making everyone look at her.

"Nan, shut up before you get your ass in trouble." Queenie told her.

"Did you kill him?" Madison asked eagerly.

"No, it was an accident." Zoe shook her head.

"It was an accident, Zoe. And you will find love again. A strange and unexpected love." Nan smiled knowingly.

Her dark brown eyes then land on Daisy and it appeared that Nan wanted to say something to her, but Queenie stopped when she spoke up.

"Girl, are you deaf or just stupid?" Queenie slammed her utensil down.

"Tell us about this accident. And don't spare all the gory details." Madison grabbed her drink.

"So, why are you here?" Zoe questioned.

Madison was a bit surprised by the question but tried to keep herself composed.

"My agent staged an intervention. Ever since my drunk and disorderly, I get blamed for all kinds of shit I didn't do." Madison said sounding annoyed.

"But you did it. You killed the man." Nan insisted.

"Whoa, you killed someone?" Daisy exclaimed as Zoe's eyes grew wide.

"I get it, bitch! You're clairvoyant." Madison snapped at Nan.

Sighing, Madison then looked over at Zoe who was stunned while Daisy was staring at her with curiosity, wondering if she should watch her back around the former actress.

"You want to know what happened? Here it is." Madison said.

She then told her story on how she was at an audition for a play.

While she was performing, the director kept giving her critics and how she needed to be standing where the light would hit her.

Becoming angered, Madison had awakened her Telekinesis and it made a stage light drop on the director's head, killing him instantly.

"The light hit him just fine." Madison shrugged.

"All he said was hit your mark. Why don't you just do the world a favor and take an acting class you D list Botox bimbo." Queenie insulted.

Zoe smirked in amusement at the insult while Daisy snickered and Madison glared at Queenie.

Moving her hand, Madison used her Telekinesis to flip Queenie's plate onto her shirt making the African American witch exclaim in shock.

Angered, Queenie grabbed her fork and shocked everyone by stabbing her own hand which caused Madison to scream.

Jumping in surprise, Daisy saw that Madison's hand had bleeding fork marks on it and realized that Queenie was using her powers to transfer the pain to the other girl.

"Uh huh." Queenie said smugly.

"Stop it, you bitch!" Madison yelled.

"Stop what? I don't feel nothing. I'm a human voodoo doll. You like this?" Queenie taunted as she twisted the fork.

"Stop! You're going to get in trouble. Queenie, stop it!" Nan wrestled the fork away from her.

Not one to be deterred, Queenie grabbed a knife and held it to her throat as she stared Madison down.

"I'll do it. I'll do it." Queenie told her.

"Okay, whoa! That's enough." Daisy said.

"Come on, Queenie, let's take a walk." Nan tried to calm her.

"A walk? Fine, I'm not hungry anyway." Queenie stood.

The two girls left the room and Madison rubbed her injured hand while Zoe was stunned into silence from what happened.

"Geez, are dinners always that eventful?" Daisy muttered.

"Like anyone believes that fat bitch isn't still hungry. Well, that was disturbing. Given the choices around here, looks like you're my new best friends." Madison told Zoe and Daisy.

"Joy." Daisy rolled her eyes.

Just then, Madison's cellphone vibrated and she picked it up to check over the message she had gotten.

"Do you own any clothes that don't come from the GAP?" Madison asked after she checked her text.

"Not really. Why?" Zoe asked trying not to show her exasperation.

"Hm, you can borrow something of mine. Frat party tonight. I just got the tweet." Madison said.

"How are we even going to get in?" Daisy asked.

"We're hot. Duh." Madison exclaimed.

Finishing up their meal, the three girls went upstairs and started getting dressed for the party.

Madison picked out a white cocktail dress for herself.

Zoe was given a black cocktail dress to wear and she felt awward in it since she was a tomboy.

As for Daisy, she was given a white sundress to wear that had a skirt that flared out and went to her knees almost, but it was tight around her breasts and exposed her cleavage in a tasteful way rather than a raunchy one.

The other two girls wore dresses that were tight on them, but it upset Madison that Daisy seemed to have bigger boobs than her while Zoe was a bit mortified that she looked like a stick figure beside the Asian witch.

Arriving at the frat house, the three witches found the party in full swing and everyone was drinking and having fun.

As soon as Madison stepped inside the building, everyone began to stare and whisper.

"Oh my God, that's Madison Montgomery!" A girl exclaimed to her friends.

The sound of all the voices made Daisy's ears ache and she tried to push back her sensitive hearing which had flared up when in a large crowd and glanced around at all of the people.

"What's a girl got to do to get a drink around here?" Madison asked.

"Come with me." A girl walked over and took her hand, leading her away.

"She dragged us here just to ditch us? What a bitch." Daisy shook her head.

"What are we supposed to do now?" Zoe asked.

"I don't know. Look for a drink or some food. Come on, let's go check around." Daisy said.

Zoe flinched back when someone walked by her and stayed close to Daisy's side as they wandered around the room, unaware of the fact that a boy with blond hair and dark brown eyes was watching them with a mesmerized smile.

"Is that seriouslly an ice sculpture?" Daisy chuckled in disbelief.

Spotting the large block of ice on the table, the two girls walked over and stared at it in disbelief.

"Wow, I wonder how much money this place has to afford an ice sculpture for a frat party." Zoe mused.

Humming in thought, Daisy glanced around and saw that a few people were staring at them and she turned away, not wanting to bother with these strangers.

Just then, Daisy noticed that a boy with blond hair was standing on the other side of the ice sculpture and he was staring at them, namely Zoe.

"I think that guy is checking you out." Daisy whispered.

Surprised, Zoe looked and she gave the boy a small smile, before remembering what happened to her boyfriend and shook her head.

"Come on, let's keep looking around." Zoe said leading her housemate away.

"Uh, okay. Remind me again why we agreed to come?" Daisy asked.

"I honestly can't remember. I guess it seemed like a good idea at the time." Zoe shrugged.

"Yeah, well, next time we make plans to go out, I say we go to a restaurant. I want to try some cajun food." Daisy grinned making Zoe laugh.

"That sounds great. We should do that some time." Zoe nodded.

As the two girls were talking, the blond walked over to them with three cups held carefully in his hands as he carried them over to the teenagers, hoping to start a conversation with them.

"Hi." He said once he stood in front of them.

"Hey." Daisy smiled in greeting which made him smile as well.

"I thought you looked thirsty." He said holding the cups out.

Zoe gave him a grin and took one of the cups and Daisy took one as well.

"Is that your superpower? You can sense dehydration?" Zoe teased.

"Among other things. You should also drink slowly. They tend to spike the punch here." The blond informed.

"Thanks for the warning. I'm Daisy by the way. This is Zoe." The raspberry haired girl said.

"I'm Kyle." The blond introduced himself.

"So, frat boy, huh? I think frats are full of facists." Zoe commented.

"Well, I don't mind being reduced to a stereotype, but I'm on a schoolarship. My mama lives down on the ninth ward." Kyle said and his cajun accent was heard.

"So, what are you going to college for?" Daisy asked.

"Enginering. What about you two? You go to school here?" Kyle questioned.

"No, we go to a boarding school. We both just started today." Daisy explained.

"A boarding school, huh?" Kyle mused.

"Miss Robichaux's Academy for Exceptional Young Ladies. I don't want to talk about me anymore." Zoe said.

"You're the first hot girl who doesn't want to talk about herself. There's got to be something wrong with you. I know. You've got a boyfriend." Kyle covered his face.

Daisy rolled her eyes at the boy, knowing that he really seemed to like Zoe all from just seeing her.

She never understood how people fell for someone upon their first meeting, it seemed weird or maybe a bit shallow to her.

"Actually, Zoe just got out of a relationship and doesn't feel comfortable with dating right now." Daisy told him.

Zoe relaxed at that, standing close to Daisy as Kyle peeked at them between his fingers, deciding not to push the subject.

"Okay. I can respect that." Kyle nodded.

"Thanks. Have you seen Madison?" Zoe questioned.

It had been a while since they last saw Madison and she seemed to have just disappeared.

Walking around, the trio began their search for the blonde girl, wondering where she was.

"Do you think she ditched you?" Kyle asked.

"No idea." Daisy muttered.

"I'll go check around upstairs." Kyle said.

He left to head upstairs while the two girls walked around, searching for the girl.

They asked a few people and one girl said she had seen Madison being helped upstairs by a few boys from Kyle's fraternity.

Feeling worried, Daisy raced up the stairs, hoping that nothing bad happened when she heard Kyle yelling before he chased his frat brothers out of a room.

Heading for the room, Daisy looked inside and her eyes grew wide in horror at what she saw.

Madison was whimpering and crying on the bed while her underwear was pulled down and her dress had been tugged upwards.

"Oh my God!" Daisy gasped.

Rushing inside, Daisy started to fix the girl's clothes and pulled the blanket over her while Madison seemed to be clinging to her for comfort.

"Daisy, did you find her?" Zoe asked as she peeked inside the room.

Gasping in horror, Zoe ran over and leaned over Madison as Daisy checked her over.

"What happened? Madison, did they give you something?" Zoe asked.

"Yeah." Madison said softly.

"Do you want us to take you to the hospital?" Daisy asked.

"No!" Madison whined and curled up on Daisy's lap.

"We need to get out of here. You need help." Daisy told her.

"I'm not gonna let them get away with this." Zoe said before running off.

"Zoe, wait!" Daisy yelled.

Groaning in disbelief, Daisy helped Madison stand and she limped with her out of the frat house, finding Zoe trying to chase after a bus that had the boys who had drugged and taken advantage of the disgraced actress in it.

Realizing that she wouldn't be able to catch them, Zoe stopped running and panted and sobbed as the bus drove down the street.

Regaining her strength, Madison pulled out of Daisy's arms and walked over, standing in front of Zoe as she stared at the bus with pain reflecting in her eyes.

Lifting her hand, Madison caused the bus to flip through the air and crash much to the shock of the few people that were nearby who were unaware of the fact that a witch had caused the accident.

Trying to calm her breathing, Madison turned and walked by Zoe and Daisy, making her way over to the frat house so she could call an Uber to pick them up.

"Please don't tell me Kyle was on that bus." Daisy said as tears fell down her face.

Turning to look at the girl, Zoe burst into tears and Daisy pulled her into a hug, comforting the distressed girl.

Staring over Zoe's shoulder, Daisy watched as people gathered around the bus, crying out for help and she said a small prayer for Kyle and the driver who were innocent of any crime, but had been punished along with the rapists.

(The next day…)

Pulling on a black tube top and black jean skirt, Daisy walked down to the kitchen where she found Queenie and Nan eating as they watched a news report on the bus trash.

Groaning at the sight of the news, Daisy grabbed her breakfast from Spalding and sat down just as Zoe walked into the kitchen, her eyes drawn to the TV when she heard that there were two survivors from the crash.

It gave Zoe hope that Kyle was one of the survivors, but Daisy knew how curle the world could be and knew that he had died.

Madison then appeared, turning the TV off on her way to Spalding to collect her food.

"Hey, I was watching that!" Nan complained.

"Why? It's yesterday's news. Hey, you got any Greek yogurt?" Madison asked Spalding.

Zoe then made her way over to Madison and Daisy stood, deciding to make sure the two girls didn't get into an argument that would reveal they were part of the incident on the news.

"We have to tell somebody what happened. The one I met, Kyle? Madison, he tried to stop it and he was on that bus." Zoe told her.

"I don't think there's anything we can do if he's dead already. Besides, we have to keep what we are a secret. Or are you looking forward to being the next witch burned alive?" Daisy asked.

"I sure as hell don't. And especially not for those assholes. I say we keep quiet about it." Madison glared.

Nan looked up when she sensed someone new walking towards them.

Soon enough, all of the girls turned around to see a woman dressed in black who had shoulder length blonde hair, brown eyes and red painted lips strutted into the kitchen with a cigarette in her hand.

Looking her over, Daisy realized that this was Fiona Goode, Cordelia's mother that Hank had warned her about.

"What are you talking about? College boys taken out of the prime of their lives. Such a tragedy. Almost makes you want to cry, doesn't it? But then again, no one's gonna miss some assholes in Ed Hardy t-shirts." Fiona mused

"Who are you?" Madison demanded.

"You know, I gotta hand it to you. The bus flip, not an easy thing to pull off. But you were a sloppy little witch bitch." Fiona scolded.

"Go to hell, you stupid hag." Madison glared and turned her back on the older and more powerful witch.

Fiona kept a stony expression on her face as she raised her hand and sent Madison skidding across the floor and she slammed into the wall, knocking her off her feet.

"Say that." Queenie looked amused.

"Now, I've read all your files and you're never gonna become great women of our clan sitting here at Hogwarts under the confused instruction of my daughter. We're going on a field trip." Fiona said.

She put out her cigarette on a plate and then she looked at Queenie and Nan, taking in their clothes and frowned in disgust.

"Jesus, change your clothes. Wear something…black." Fiona drawled as she walked out of the room.

Madison stood up and brushed herself off and the witches all shared a look.

"I'm already wearing black." Daisy stated.

Getting up, Daisy walked out of the kitchen and the rest of the witches followed, making their way to the stairs, passing by Fiona who was handed an umbrella and pair of sunglasses by Spalding.

"Ah, not you, little hellcat." Fiona called.

Pausing as she knew the woman was talking about her, Daisy turned to look at Fiona who smiled at her and the girl felt like she was facing a serpent.

"You're already dressed. Come here and wait with me." Fiona crooned.

Everyone stared at Daisy who felt uncomfortable with being left alone with the older witch who gave off a dangerous aura.

Looking at Zoe and Madison who both appeared worried, Daisy shrugged and made her way over to Fiona while the rest of the girls continued their way to their rooms to get changed.

"Uh, all right then." Daisy said.

Smiling, Fiona gestured for the girl to walk closer until she was standing right in front of her.

Unknown to Daisy, the Supreme was able to sense the warm aura that surounded the girl and it made her curious.

"Did you know that you're the first witch that isn't from America that we've had here?" Fiona questioned.

"Really? Was this usually a school for white girls?" Daisy asked.

"It was at first. We've had a few Asian girls showing up here in the past, but they felt uncomfortable being surounded by privilaged white bitches and they left. I don't blame them, but I feel like they should have grown a back bone and stayed. They'd be safer if they had. You got lucky. You're different compared to them. You're stronger." Fiona told her.

"Thanks, Ms. Goode." Daisy ducked her head.

"None of that Ms. Goode bullshit. Fiona is fine." She stated.

"Okay then…Fiona." Daisy relented.

Smirking, Fiona reached out and brushed the girl's raspberry colored curls out of her face.

"I think you and I are gonna get along, little hellcat." Fiona crooned.

Soon enough, the rest of the girls walked down the stairs to join Daisy and Fiona, then they made their way out onto the streets of New Orleans, all of them wearing black and walking in a single line behind the elegant older witch.

"Where are we going? It's too hot and my freaking vagina is sweating." Madison complained.

"To Pop's Fountain. A kind of holy place for our kind. Back in the 1970's, Mary Oneida Toups lead an alternative coven down here. She and her sister witches would gather there, proudly and publicly, very much in the spirit of the times. But it was damaged during Katrina and the authorities used this as an excuse to declare this sacred space a safety hazard. It's been closed off ever since." Fiona explained.

"I don't understand. What are we supposed to do if we can't get in?" Zoe questioned.

"Tear the wall down. When witches don't fight, we burn." Fiona said.

"This is seriously the worst field trip ever." Madison huffed.

"Each one of you has a unique gift. But that's not nearly enough to be a real witch." Fiona told them.

"And you're a real witch?" Madison gave her a look.

"She's the Supreme." Nan spoke up.

Fiona chuckled at that and looked behind her at the girls following behind her.

"You know, that one? She's smarter than all of you put together." Fiona said.

The group continued walking down the street, but Nan stopped, interested in the old Lalaurie museum, hearing voices from it.

She walked inside to find the source and soon enough, the rest fo the coven followed her inside when they noticed she had broken off from the group.

They stood off to the side, staring in on Nan and the tour group as they were being given a lecture by a woman.

"Do you want me to get her?" Zoe asked the Supreme.

"No." Fiona told her and stepped into the room.

The tour guide looked at her and frowned at the coven as they roamed around the room.

"Excuse me? Uh, you can't just barge in on the tour without purchasing a ticket." The woman informed.

The hairs on the back of Daisy's neck rose as she saw Fiona stare down the woman who froze at the Supreme's look.

"You're giving us a tour for free." Fiona ordered.

"Free, of course." The woman agreed.

Daisy narrowed her eyes at that, wondering if Fiona had the power of mind control or if the woman was just scared of the witch.

"The code noir, a decree that dictated conditions of slavery, did not exist on these grounds. It was replaced by the madam's own code of terror. And the torture she inflicted on her slaves would spawn 179 years of hauntings." The woman said.

Everyone stared at the portrait of one of the most notorious female serial killers Marie Delphine LaLaurie.

"Wasn't this house owned by the guy in Face/Off?" A girl in the group asked as the guide began to lead them elsewhere.

Nan didn't seem to be moving and kept staring at the portrait, almost like she was transfixed by it.

"Correct. The actor Nicolas Cage was a previous owner." The tour guide smiled.

The woman was leading everyone upstairs to the attic where Delphine had kept her slaves.

"Madam LaLaurie was infamous for her vanity. She fought the rigors of age with a sacrament of expensive creams from Europe and something else far more exotic. The secret ingredient to the madam's beauty ritual was a poultice made from human pancreas." The woman explained.

"Shit, what was this woman, a Satanist?" Daisy blurted out.

All eyes turned towards her and she ducked her head down, feeling embarressed of the attention while Madison stood beside her, snickering.

The tour guide grinned at that with a knowing expression, like she knew at least someone would exclaim in shock at the information she had just revealed.

"Yes, I know. Quite horrific. This is the infamous chamber of horrors. No flash photography, please. The attic where Madame LaLaurie inflicted heinous torture upon her slaves. Where she ultimately met her own demise. Unbeknownst to Madame LaLaurie, the slave she had brutally mutilated was Marie Laveau's lover. She came to exact her revenge. The madam was given a love potion that was said to help her stay young and keep her husband from leaving her. What she didn't know, was that Marie Laveau had different plans for her. The potion inflicted its cruel justice and she got what she richly deserved. But her body was never found. To this day, no one knows the final resting place of Madame Lalaurie." The woman informed.

Nan had snuck outside to the garden and Fiona went down to speak with her, wanting to know what had gotten the Clairvoyant's attention.

Queenie and Madison were still roaming around, looking at everything around them while Zoe grabbed Daisy's hand and dragged her off to a corner to speak with her in private.

"I want to head off to the hospital to see if Kyle was one of the survivors." Zoe spoke up.

"What? Zoe, I don't know if that's a good idea. It was bad enough that we were there when the accident happened. If you go to the hospital, it might get someone's attention." Daisy told her.

"But I need to know if Kyle is okay." Zoe insisted.

"And what happens if he isn't? What happens if it's those two assholes who are still alive and Kyle is dead? What are you going to do then? Don't go, Zoe. I'm sure the news will release the names of the people who died soon enough. Just wait until then." Daisy said.

The police were getting involved to find out what had caused the accident and she was sure that people would tell them that Madison was there and she arrived with two other girls.

Sadly for her, Daisy stood out with her raspberry locks, so she would be easy to point out in a crowd.

It would lead the police right to them and Daisy was sure that Fiona would be furious if that happened.

They didn't need Zoe to do anything that would get them into even more trouble.

"I can't wait that long. I need to see if he's okay." Zoe insisted.

As the girl turned to leave, Daisy reacted quickly and grabbed her arm, startling the girl who turned and her eyes grew wide in shock.

Daisy's warm brown eyes had turned a piercing golden yellow color and her pupils had become slits, making her appear like a demon.

"Zoe, don't do anything stupid." Daisy ordered.

Growing determined, Zoe shook the Black Cat witch off of her and left for the hospital which made Daisy worry over what the girl would do.

"If she leads the cops to us, I'm gonna drop a house on her." She growled.
