His
face reddened. “You’ll be fine? Your heart stopped six times. You
were dead, Maddie, for nearly ten minutes. You were dead.”
I
waved off his concern. “Well, I’m back now so cancel the
funeral.”

Excerpt
He
took a seat with his buddies, not a care in the world. Call it my
sense of injustice or whatever, but I couldn’t stand to watch him
sit and relax with a smile on his face. My parents never let me
perform magic in public. For obvious reasons. News stories tended to
follow about suspected terrorist attacks, but really, that was only
like once. Or twice.
My
muscles tensed to get up and walk over to do something mundane like
throw coffee in his face. I know, being a witch should be way cooler.
But I had to do something.
Before
I could stand up, the tiny lights of my blood cells flashed in my
mind. I paused, I already had to have an uncomfortable talk with my
parents about the burning blood. What was one more tiny problem? I
settled back into my seat. Across the room Nathan laughed and lifted
his cup to blow on the steaming drink. I focused my aim, carefully
using only a little of my energy to undo the electromagnetic bonds of
the molecules in his cup.
It
took all my attention. I’d only managed success with this
particular spell a couple times and if my aim was the least bit
off…Well, let’s just say it wouldn’t be pretty.
The
bottom of Nathan’s cup blew out, and the contents covered his
crotch in mocha napalm. My excess energy had superheated the coffee
to a scalding temperature and sent chunks of the cup flying through
the air. He sprang from his seat and fanned his pants while his
wide-open mouth emitted a surprisingly high pitched shriek. My hand
slapped over my lips, my entire body shaking with enjoyment. A little
overkill, maybe. Too bad my mom wasn’t around to see me actually do
a spell right.
