《Phenomena the Basic Witch and The Mind Safari》Chapter 23: Know Who Your Friends Are
Advertisement
Everyone exchange looks of shock, but the most shocked of them all was Ashlan. She stood with her emerald eyes widened and her fangs bared. "Marie, Laetitia?! Why did you rat me out?!"
The twins traded looks. Mena observed that the dark haired Marie looked a bit sorrowful but Laetitia's face was firm. "You see, Ashlan," the silver haired Laetitia said, "We care about you, but after zee way zis peasant humilated us over the semesters, we'd like to settle the score."
"At least my sista would," Marie said, "I'd rather have you back," causing Laetitia to glare at her.
Mena grimaced at the terrible twins. "So getting me in trouble is more important than helping your dearest friend, Ashlan?"
Laetitia placed her hands on her hips and closed her eyes. "Zis is a necessary evil!"
"You've got the evil part right," Janus muttered. "You need better friends, Lionbrain."
"I can't believe both of you," Ashlan said, stomping her feet. "You should be crusading for my freedom and innocence, not trying to get even with Mena and her friends."
Marie looked remorseful, but Laetitia turned her head. "Ashlan, zat peasant humilated us so much in her first semester. Before zat we were never on probation. She sullied our records which were normally as clean as our fingernails!"
Janus rolled her eyes. "That analogy is as odd as they are."
Ashlan's eyes watered but she crossed her arms. "All the while, I've been avoiding Mena because of you two, but now...it's plain to see who my real friends are."
"Wait…" Laetitia said, stifling a cry. "Ashlan…" but the lioness was led away in cuffs.
"Talk to the paw," she said, and she turned to Mena. "I'm sorry that it came to this, Mena, but thank you for believing in me."

"I'm going to make things right for both you and Tal!" Mena cried.
Ashlan's shoulders slumped as she was led away by the Lollypop Security, leaving Mena and her friends alone with Electra and the twins.
Electra glared at them. "Why did you let this felon escape? Stellaris ought to have you tried at this for aiding and abetting a criminal. Then you will be expelled and…"
"They believe in due process…" a high and sweet voice said
Scalia stood up from her desk and marched over to Mena and her friends.
"As Mena said," the green fishysuaz said. "Miss O'Ryan is innocent until proven guilty."
Electra adjusted her glasses. "Excuse me, professor, but what do you know about the law?"
Scalia giggled. "Well my father is an attorney at craw...fish!"
"He's whaaa?!" Mena and her friends screamed.
"That's what my father always wanted me to be," Scalia said. "He didn't believe I could be history professor, he wanted me to keep up the family business, but I bucked the trend."
"Plot twist!" Mena sang
"That said," Scalia said. "I'm going to call him up and have him protect this lion's due process."
"Oh yeah?" Electra said, her hands on her hips. "How are you going to reach him so fast?"
Scalia reached into her pocket and whipped out a colorful conch shell. "With my shell phone, of course!"
As Scalia dialed her father's number, Electra stormed out with their terrible twins. Even as she left, Electra continued her tirade, "Good luck defending a murderess who stabbed my student in front of my eyes. Lightning strike me dead if I'm wrong."
Mena frowned. She was endlessly grateful for Scalia, but this would be a hard case for everyone involved.
Scalia hung up the phone. "Ok my father will be here. Right before the big case."
Mena held her hands together in prayer. She desperately hoped for the best outcome for everyone, but sometimes justice could be messy.

The New Community
In the not too distant future, the world is settling down after world war 3, recovering and rebuilding. From the ruins, new communities and governments arise, along with Talents, people with extraordinary abilities. Amongst the groups is the Community, based in Europe, an inclusive group of towns that values everyone, regardless of Talent status. Leading the recruitment charge is Zoe, a powerful technomancer, one of the first generation of Talents. On her adventures, what will happen? Your votes will decide. A/N: I'll update chapters when I get to places where I feel it's right, I don't know where to go and want some direction or would like to have you help with the narrative in some way. Having others make choices forces me to be creative and I think that's when I'm at my best. Keep an eye out for polls in post chapter notes, they usually last 2 days. As always, love each other, and know I am grateful for every single person who reads my works.

Part I(Completed story Part II - coming soon)Hesitantly, I turn my head and look at the other half of the bed. Spellbound, I stare at the back of a man with black hair. The image of Elvis flits through my mind and I swallow dryly. What on earth has happened? I look at the body beside me and my heart beats a few beats faster than normal. Broad shoulders, his back muscles clearly defined and pale flawless skin. His raven hair shines and the sun casts a soft light on his body. My fingertips begin to tingle. A feeling of re-membrance settles over me. My body remembers this man. But I don't know him.Smut and boyslove. Don't like it. Don't read it.The characters belong to Cassandra Clare.
