Transcript
00:00I jumped onto the table and pushed my hands forward.
00:03Don't you dare mess with me!
00:05My fingertips shot out red sparks,
00:07shaping into a fiery ball hanging in the air
00:09as I looked around the room.
00:11All of a sudden, something grabbed my ankle
00:13and pulled really hard.
00:15The room seemed to flip upside down.
00:17I tried to scream and woke up.
00:19These nightmares had been haunting me for a month now,
00:22and every time I woke up, I felt nauseous.
00:25It was like they were draining my energy,
00:27leaving me feeling weak and dizzy.
00:30We need to run some tests.
00:32My parents were great doctors,
00:34but they were always consumed by their work at the hospital.
00:37They called it dedication.
00:39Well, I called it obsession.
00:41I often wondered how they even found time to date,
00:43let alone raise me.
00:44They were always at work,
00:45and on the rare nights we did manage to sit down for dinner,
00:48all they talked about was work.
00:50Got a patient today.
00:51He thinks shadows are tailing him.
00:53Well, shadows tail us all, especially in bright light.
00:56I told him the same thing,
00:58but he insisted they meant him harm.
01:00So I sent him over to Morrison's.
01:02He's the top psychiatrist in town.
01:05I didn't care what they talked about.
01:07All I wanted was more time with them.
01:09When I was younger,
01:09I'd even fake being sick just to have them around.
01:12Daddy, my elbow hurts.
01:15Oh, that sounds rare.
01:16We might have to call in a team of specialists,
01:19consult the Encyclopedia of Unbelievable Joint Problems,
01:22and possibly even consider a bubble wrap suit
01:25to ensure absolute safety.
01:27Mommy, my tummy feels funny.
01:29What color was your last stool?
01:31Was it a normal shade?
01:33If it's green, it might indicate an alien infection.
01:35Very rare, but possible.
01:38Consistency is crucial, too.
01:39Was it hard like a rock or liquidy like a smoothie?
01:42Ew, Mom!
01:43It was normal, I swear!
01:45When my plan worked,
01:46they'd whisk me off to the hospital,
01:48run a bunch of tests,
01:49and sometimes even chill at home with me
01:51for a day or two.
01:52Still, I stopped faking it eventually,
01:54while those were the best times
01:56because I was closer to them.
01:57Afterward, when everything was back to normal,
01:59I'd feel even lonelier.
02:01You seem perfectly all right, darling.
02:03Nothing to worry about.
02:05Only this time, I truly didn't feel well.
02:08It's gotta be this town.
02:09This phrase became my daily ritual.
02:12We relocated here several months ago,
02:14but ever since,
02:15I've felt out of sync with everything around me.
02:18You just miss home.
02:19But my problem was not homesickness.
02:21I never felt quite at home anywhere.
02:23Yet here, in this town...
02:25Oh, not again!
02:26A gust of wind smacked me in the face,
02:29followed by a sudden downpour.
02:30Those bizarre weather patterns were quite recent,
02:33but they quickly became the most annoying thing
02:36about this town.
02:37And trust me,
02:38there were a lot of annoying things to choose from.
02:40I dashed towards school,
02:42kicking up my pace.
02:42Then, as abruptly as it had begun,
02:45the rain stopped,
02:46leaving the sun shining brightly once more.
02:48But my outfit was drenched,
02:50and my hair was a complete mess.
02:52Happy sweet 16, Aurora.
02:55Well, it was indeed my birthday,
02:57but little did I know that just in an hour,
02:59my whole life was about to flip upside down.
03:02Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!
03:04What a freak!
03:06Why is there always that one person in every school
03:10who's just out to mock everyone?
03:11There was ours, Regina.
03:13I tried my best to ignore her,
03:15but for some reason,
03:16she seemed to have it out for me more than anyone else.
03:19I didn't realize the drowned rat look was in style now.
03:24Guess you're just not keeping up with the trends.
03:26I didn't have time to waste arguing with her.
03:28My focus had to be on my project.
03:31We were paired up for this assignment,
03:32but my partner, Leo,
03:33bailed on me for his video games,
03:35leaving me to handle everything by myself.
03:38Next up, Aurora and Leo.
03:40What did you two come up with?
03:42This lazy jerk didn't do a damn thing.
03:44Did you say something, Aurora?
03:45Nah, just a little cough.
03:47I carefully placed my volcano on the front table,
03:50but a part of it fell to the floor.
03:52Looks like she wet her volcano,
03:55just like her bed.
03:56The whole class burst into laughter.
03:59My face turned red,
04:00and I felt like I was about to explode.
04:03But as I tried to fix things,
04:04something crazy happened.
04:06I saw my hands start to glow like a hundred fireflies,
04:09and then boom, the volcano erupted.
04:12It was insane.
04:13Lava spewed in every direction.
04:15Flooding the floor like there was no tomorrow.
04:18Yeah, like literally,
04:19the floor was lava.
04:21Everyone freaked out,
04:22jumping on desks and screaming.
04:24The teacher was yelling something,
04:25but I was so embarrassed and scared,
04:27I just bolted out of there.
04:29What on earth just happened?
04:31I knew I only used a tiny scoop of chemicals,
04:33so that was not it.
04:35It was something else.
04:36Something.
04:37I didn't know you were a witch.
04:38What?
04:39I must have misheard her.
04:40A snitch?
04:41A witch.
04:43I hadn't misheard her.
04:44My family's roots go all the way back to the Shipton's.
04:47How about yours?
04:48I have no clue what you're talking about.
04:51I'm not a witch,
04:52or whatever you mean by that.
04:53But you just did some magic back there.
04:55I saw it.
04:56You're crazy.
04:57There's no such thing as magic.
04:59I walked out of the restroom,
05:00totally confused over that weird conversation.
05:03I've never really chatted with Sarah before,
05:05but it was clear that everyone seemed a bit nervous around her,
05:09trying to keep their distance.
05:10And she definitely seemed to revel in that.
05:13Magic.
05:13It's called chemistry.
05:15But man, I was so annoyed.
05:17Somehow, I was pretty sure now
05:19that it was just Regina messing with me again.
05:21I'll make her pay for-
05:23Whoa!
05:23I jumped back, totally freaked out.
05:25My anger instantly faded,
05:27replaced by that sick feeling in my stomach.
05:30My heart raced,
05:31and I felt like I couldn't breathe.
05:32I definitely need some air, like a lot.
05:35I dashed from school, trying to keep my balance.
05:38My ears felt like they were plugged,
05:40muffling the sounds around me.
05:41Then, I spotted a cafe nearby.
05:44Maybe some coffee and sugar will help.
05:46I stepped into the cafe, feeling woozy.
05:48My head was spinning a bit.
05:50As I waited in line,
05:51I couldn't resist checking out
05:52the colorful cupcakes on the counter.
05:54Those look delicious.
05:56I daydreamed about sinking my teeth into them,
05:59until, whoa, hold up.
06:01They started moving towards me,
06:02floating in midair.
06:04It was like magic.
06:05I screamed and bolted out of there.
06:07No, no.
06:09I can't be losing it.
06:10Not before the year-end exams.
06:12I kept on running down the street,
06:14moving like Jack Sparrow,
06:15making a getaway.
06:16Then, out of nowhere,
06:17a car honked at me,
06:18and I nearly jumped out of my skin.
06:20At the exact same moment,
06:22all the fire hydrants along the street burst open,
06:25spraying water everywhere.
06:26Okay, I am losing it.
06:29Now, my head was spinning like crazy,
06:31and I had to lean against the wall
06:33just to keep steady, panting hard.
06:35Suddenly, everything went blurry,
06:37and then I blacked out.
06:39Is she gone?
06:40Honey, don't be ridiculous.
06:42Her mind's just overwhelmed.
06:44I blinked my eyes open
06:45and found myself in a brightly lit living room.
06:48A gentle-faced woman was moving burning herbs over me.
06:51I coughed.
06:52Who the hell are you?
06:53And what are those herbs?
06:54They smell awesome!
06:56Welcome back, dear.
06:57I'm Evelyn, Sarah's mom.
06:59I sat on the couch, scanning the room.
07:01Sarah was nearby,
07:02putting on this whole act
07:03like she couldn't care less
07:04about what was going on around her.
07:06Why am I here?
07:07What's going on?
07:08Sarah brought you here.
07:09It seems like your powers just awakened,
07:12and your mind couldn't handle it.
07:14It's normal.
07:15It happens to a lot of witches.
07:17I burst into hysterical laughter.
07:20Your family is all kinds of nuts, huh?
07:23Evelyn flashed me a smile,
07:24then mysteriously moved her hand,
07:26and a flame flickered to life
07:28in the center of her palm.
07:29I jumped off the sofa, scared as heck.
07:32Is this some kind of trick?
07:34Oh, for heaven's sake!
07:36You saw what you did back at school and later.
07:39Everyone saw it,
07:40and I had to clean up your mess
07:42and wipe out dozens of memories.
07:44Do you even know how difficult the memory spell is?
07:47It's freaking exhausting!
07:49So stop denying the truth,
07:51because I'm seriously pissed off right now!
07:54You're a witch!
07:55I think I need a second opinion.
07:58My whole life,
07:59I grew up in a family that believed only in science.
08:02Right now,
08:03every fiber of my being should have been shouting,
08:06fake, fraud, insane!
08:07Still, deep down,
08:09I knew it was real.
08:10Does your mom have any powers?
08:12She's the most ordinary person you could imagine.
08:15Hmm, that's strange.
08:17Usually, powers manifest through women's DNA
08:20and awaken at a very young age.
08:23Well, you're certainly late by exactly 16 years, then.
08:27Wait, you're turning 16 today?
08:29Yeah, talk about a birthday surprise, huh?
08:33Curious.
08:34Very curious.
08:35As Evelyn drifted into her thoughts,
08:37I concentrated on my hands.
08:39I moved them around,
08:40feeling awkward,
08:41but despite a slight itch in my palms,
08:43there was no hint of a flame.
08:45You're not going anywhere until you truly believe.
08:48In what?
08:49In magic and yourself.
08:51Yes, belief and focus are the first steps to unlocking your power.
08:56But let's save that for another time.
08:58It's getting late.
09:00Sarah, could you take our new witch to her home?
09:03She's perfectly capable of doing it herself.
09:06Just make sure she doesn't accidentally blow anything up along the way, okay?
09:11Ugh, fine.
09:12Let's go.
09:13The night rolled in as we walked through the park in complete silence.
09:17I'm sorry if I caused you any trouble today.
09:19I didn't mean to.
09:20And thanks for helping me out.
09:22Just learn to handle your magic, okay?
09:24Or it could cause a ton of problems if people catch on.
09:27Normies aren't supposed to know magic's real.
09:30Oh, like in Harry Potter.
09:32Got it.
09:33Happy birthday, by the way.
09:34Thanks.
09:35So, now that I'm a witch, what can I do?
09:39Right now, not much.
09:40But with some time and practice, you'll be able to do all sorts of things.
09:44And what can you do already?
09:46Me?
09:47Pretty much anything, really.
09:48I'm a powerful witch.
09:50Suddenly, a scream pierced through the quiet of the woods.
09:53We need to be quiet and careful.
09:55I'm a newly minted witch.
09:57Do I need a secret password to survive this?
09:59Is it bubble, bubble, I'm in trouble?
10:01Ugh, bogus.
10:03Sorry.
10:03Humor is my defense mechanism.
10:05Suddenly, I felt a hole inside me.
10:08And without overthinking, I dashed toward the sound.
10:10Where are you, Aurora?
10:13Are you insane?
10:14She followed after me.
10:16Up ahead, there was a dim path, totally deserted.
10:18Except for one guy, just lying there.
10:21And around him, things were getting really weird.
10:24Something like foggy darkness was swirling around, shifting into all kinds of strange shapes.
10:30And slowly creeping over his body.
10:32It looks like it's eating him.
10:35It certainly looked that way.
10:37Like something straight out of a horror movie.
10:39I felt a shiver creep down my spine.
10:43Help.
10:44Do something.
10:45Me?
10:46You're a freaking powerful witch.
10:47Help him.
10:48She muttered something under her breath.
10:50And began unleashing bursts of light towards the strange shadow.
10:54At first, it seemed like her efforts were in vain.
10:56But then the creature stumbled and vanished into the shadows between the trees.
11:00That's it?
11:01Did I win?
11:02It looks like it.
11:03Ah!
11:04Darkness surrounded us from every direction.
11:07It seemed like this thick, smoky wall closing in on us bit by bit.
11:10Sarah kept shooting bursts of light.
11:12But they ended one after the other.
11:14We stuck close together, desperate to avoid touching the shadows.
11:17But within its suffocating hole, we couldn't see anything else.
11:21No trees.
11:21No sky.
11:22Just pitch black darkness all around us.
11:24We're toast.
11:26She was right.
11:27It felt like our final moments on Earth.
11:29I closed my eyes, preparing for the worst.
11:32And then I felt something warm stirring inside me.
11:35I didn't know what it was, but I believed it and focused on that feeling.
11:40My body began to tremble.
11:41In the next moment, the brightest energy burst out from within me, flooding the area with
11:46light as if it were midday.
11:48How?
11:49How did you do that?
11:51Sarah seemed shocked, scared, and frankly a little jealous.
11:54I glanced down at my body, confused.
11:57No idea.
11:58But what was that thing?
11:59No idea.
12:00I've never seen anything like it before.
12:02We heard some murmurs coming from the guy we saved from the darkness.
12:06As we got closer, I recognized him.
12:08He was from another class.
12:09We'd crossed paths a few times before.
12:11Are you an angel?
12:13Should we wipe his memory?
12:14I'll take him to my mom.
12:16You go home.
12:17I can help.
12:17No.
12:18You've done enough.
12:19Her tone was icy for some reason, and I could sense the jealousy in her gaze.
12:24With a quick move, Sarah effortlessly lifted the boy as if he weighed nothing, definitely
12:28using some magic tricks.
12:30Without a glance my way, she walked off in the opposite direction.
12:34My head was spinning as I walked home.
12:36After everything that had gone down today, I couldn't shake the feeling that maybe I
12:41was just dreaming it all up.
12:42Suddenly, I felt uneasy.
12:44It was like someone was watching me from the shadows.
12:46I looked around, but there was nothing there.
12:48Must be my nerves from today's craziness.
12:51I picked up my pace, and then I heard noises behind me.
12:54Before I knew it, a shadowy figure emerged from the trees and started heading straight
12:58for me.
12:59My heart raced like crazy, and all I could think was, I gotta run.
13:03Now!
13:04And so, I ran.
13:06I waved over fallen logs, ducked under branches, and bulldozed through bushes, not stopping
13:11for anything.
13:13Then BAM!
13:14I didn't see this stupid hole in the ground and tripped, eating dirt like a champ.
13:19As I lay there, trying to catch my breath, I heard footsteps closing in, each one sounding
13:24louder and heavier than the last.
13:26I was trapped.
13:27What magical creature would I encounter now?
13:30A wizard?
13:31A warlock?
13:31A knight?
13:32A demon?
13:32Or something even worse?
13:34What the heck?
13:36I flipped over.
13:37It was just my classmate, Leo, peering down at me with a mix of confusion and worry.
13:42Oh, it's just you.
13:43Who did you think I was?
13:46Why were you running?
13:47Why were you chasing?
13:48He reached out a hand to help me up.
13:50I just wanted to chat.
13:52Chat?
13:53You always just sneak up on people in the middle of the forest like some horror movie
13:57villain just to chat?
13:59He smiled and ran a hand through his hair, a move that had all the girls swooning, except
14:04me.
14:05No one ever mentioned I had a villain vibe.
14:08Oh, don't worry.
14:10Aging can be tough on some.
14:11We locked eyes, the air thick with unspoken words.
14:15All right, Spill, what's this chat really about?
14:18Well, for starters, I know about your powers and...
14:22Powers?
14:23You've been reading too many comic books, Leo.
14:26Quit messing around.
14:27I've seen what you did at school.
14:29I usually stay out of witches' business, but...
14:32Witches, Leo?
14:33That hair gel's really seeping into your brain.
14:36What's next?
14:37You're gonna tell me you're Harry Potter?
14:39Nope, just a pro-demon hunter.
14:42And I've been assigned to monitor an amateur witch who can't control her powers.
14:47You.
14:47Assigned?
14:48Yeah, I'm not thrilled about babysitting you either, but it's what I'm stuck with.
14:53So from now on, keep me updated on your witchy activities and whereabouts so I can keep you safe.
14:59Whoa.
14:59Hold up.
15:00Safe from what?
15:02Looks like from yourself.
15:03I can take care of myself just fine.
15:06I don't need your help.
15:07It's not up to you to decide.
15:09And who gets to decide?
15:10You?
15:11Not me.
15:12But the ones I answer to.
15:13And who might that be?
15:15That's...
15:16None of your business.
15:17And my life is none of yours.
15:20Now it is.
15:21So, you wanna know my every move?
15:23Well, I'm going home now.
15:25Feeling a surge of anger and exhaustion, I turned away, yearning for the simple ability
15:31to teleport straight home.
15:33I gotta ask Sarah if that's possible.
15:35When I finally made it home, I felt like a deflated balloon.
15:40But what really knocked the wind out of me was walking into an empty house.
15:44With their new jobs, my parents worked twice as much as before.
15:48Soon, I'll probably forget what they even looked like.
15:51I hoped they'd at least be here for my birthday, but the fridge was empty, with no cake in sight.
15:56I made myself a really sad sandwich, stuck a candle in it, and made my usual wish.
16:02I wished to have people who truly understood me and who were always there for me.
16:07Is that really too much to ask?
16:09When I returned to school the next day, everything appeared to be back to normal.
16:13It seemed like nobody remembered my volcanic disaster.
16:16Maybe Sarah is actually a good witch?
16:19I saw her at the end of the hall, and I waved, but she pretended like she didn't see me.
16:24Why is she acting like that?
16:26Hey, Aurora!
16:27Have you seen Rose today?
16:28No.
16:29Why?
16:30She was supposed to meet me last night, but never showed up, and I haven't been able to reach her since.
16:34I'm sure she'll turn up.
16:36Rose was always the quiet one, easily overlooked.
16:38It seemed like no one else really cared about her whereabouts, except for her only friend.
16:43But I had my own worries for the day.
16:45My mind was elsewhere, lost in fog, making it almost impossible to focus on anything happening in class.
16:52I still couldn't wrap my head around what happened to me yesterday.
16:55Out of nowhere, my whole life got flipped upside down, and there was no one to help me make any sense of it.
17:02Why me?
17:03Why now?
17:04And what am I even capable of?
17:06I fixed my gaze on the pen resting on my desk, and I tried to move it, without touching it, of course.
17:12At first, nothing.
17:14I put more strength into it.
17:15Then, the pen started to tremble.
17:18I concentrated harder and harder, and...
17:21Whoa!
17:21It suddenly leaped into the air, flew halfway across the classroom, and hit Leo right on the head.
17:27He looked back, surprised.
17:29After our odd chat last night, I wasn't in the mood to apologize.
17:33What a demonstration of Newton's laws, Aurora.
17:36Remember, folks, physics can be a real head-turner.
17:40The class giggled.
17:41At that moment, the bell rang, and the class was dismissed.
17:44See you next week, kids.
17:45Just after the teacher left, Regina couldn't resist throwing her two cents in.
17:50She turned around and looked at me.
17:52Yeah, Aurora. Nice demonstration of how desperate you are to get Leo's attention.
17:59I was not...
17:59Don't get me wrong. I admire your confidence.
18:03Especially when he's so obviously out of your look.
18:07Everyone laughed at me.
18:08I wanted to jump on her and ruin her perfect makeup, but I restrained myself.
18:13I looked down, but surprisingly, someone jumped to my defense.
18:17Shut up, Regina. You want to talk desperation? How about you keep throwing yourself at Leo and he keeps swerving?
18:24Look at that. Of course. Freaks have each other's back.
18:28Who are you calling freak?
18:30You. You're just as weird as your mother.
18:33Suddenly, Sarah lunged at Regina, grabbing her hair from behind.
18:37The classroom erupted in cheers.
18:40I hurried over to break up the fight, but just then, the principal, hearing the noise, stepped into the classroom.
18:45What's going on here?
18:47Everyone quickly backed away, leaving us three in the center of the quarrel.
18:51These two weirdos just jumped me out of nowhere.
18:55What? She started...
18:56You two, silence now. Your parents will be getting a call from me today.
19:01I won't tolerate such behavior in this school.
19:04He left before we could explain.
19:06That's so unfair.
19:07Regina walked away triumphantly towards the cafeteria.
19:11Enraged, I went after her. Sarah rushed behind me.
19:14Aurora, stop.
19:15In the cafeteria, I focused on a soccer ball in a boy's hands nearby and sent it flying straight towards Regina's head.
19:23Don't!
19:23Sarah redirected the ball, causing it to hit the opposite wall.
19:27I looked at her, taken aback.
19:29You can't use magic at school. You'll be seen.
19:32But it was you who started the fight. She deserves it.
19:36She absolutely does.
19:37But using magic recklessly can have consequences, especially when you can't control your powers yet.
19:43It's gonna be fine.
19:44Don't brush me off.
19:46First, you need to learn.
19:47Stop it, Aurora.
19:49Regina tried to sit down at the table, but I made her chair disappear, causing her to fall to the floor.
19:55The entire cafeteria burst into hysterical laughter.
19:59See? Everything's fine.
20:01Where did you send the chair?
20:02I just made it vanish.
20:04Magic doesn't work like that. If an object disappears, it has to go somewhere else.
20:09She shut her eyes and focused.
20:11I can't find its trace.
20:13Meanwhile, Regina, red with embarrassment, tried to sit down once more.
20:17But yep, I made another chair disappear.
20:21Sorry, not sorry.
20:22Regina leaned hard on the floor and immediately sprang to her feet.
20:26What's going on?
20:27She looked around, her expression filled with fury and confusion.
20:32Her girlfriend shook their head in disbelief, clearly unable to explain anything.
20:37I think I'm getting the hang of it.
20:38You should stop now.
20:40But I didn't want to stop.
20:42After years of torment, it was finally payback time.
20:46I kept pranking Regina, changing her glass into a potato, putting worms in her food, tying her shoelaces together, and more.
20:53I couldn't stop.
20:54Some pranks were screaming magic, so Sarah had to undo them fast before anyone would notice.
21:00I will not risk using memory charm to save your butt anymore.
21:04You can't imagine how hard.
21:06She fell silent as Simon approached, looking much better than yesterday after we saved him.
21:11His gaze had an affection that caught me off guard.
21:14Do I have a fly in my ear?
21:16I had the strangest dream about you last night.
21:19You were like an angel saving me from some dark monster.
21:22I choked, exchanging a questioning look with Sarah before turning back to Simon.
21:27Glad I could help.
21:29But do you usually share your wild dreams with people?
21:33I, um, no.
21:34It's just, it felt so real, you know?
21:37He blushed deeply and hurried away, muttering to himself.
21:41How come he remembers?
21:42Wiping his memory was way too risky.
21:44With all he went through, it could have messed him up bad.
21:47That's what I've been trying to tell you all along.
21:50That he's a wreck?
21:51No, that using memory charms is too dangerous.
21:55You never know what might happen, so stop being so careless.
21:58Suddenly, there was a loud bang followed by laughter.
22:02The tied shoelaces on Regina's sneakers had done their trick.
22:05Now, she was sprawled on the floor with a nosebleed.
22:08Ha ha ha ha, that's priceless.
22:11Oh, I love magic.
22:13Oh, no.
22:14I followed Sarah's gaze and gasped.
22:17There was a strange black thing floating in the air above our heads.
22:21Is that a ball?
22:23A gap?
22:24A hole?
22:24I'm not sure, but it doesn't look good.
22:27The thing pulsed slightly, but everyone seemed too distracted with their gadgets to notice it.
22:32It feels like something magical.
22:34Easy peasy.
22:35I tried to make it vanish like the chairs before, but it only grew wider.
22:40Fork?
22:41I didn't mean to.
22:42Don't do anything, please.
22:43There are too many people here.
22:44Let's come back after classes.
22:46But what if somebody notices it?
22:48Can we at least cover it somehow?
22:50Good idea.
22:51She waved her hand, and the thing blinked and disappeared under what seems like a veil.
22:56Great.
22:56Problem solved.
22:57Of course, the problem was far from solved.
23:01After school, we went straight to Sarah's house because her mom wanted to have a chat with me
23:05and to wait for everyone else to clear out of the school.
23:08Before going in, Sarah made me promise not to say anything about the huge black hole in the middle of the cafeteria.
23:15Sarah told me everything.
23:16I looked at Sarah in panic.
23:18About how you saved that boy yesterday.
23:21Don't forget I set the stage.
23:24Can you explain to me how you did it?
23:25I just felt a warmth inside me and believed I could do it.
23:30How simple.
23:32Absolute genius.
23:34Your potential is extraordinary.
23:36If you learn to embrace and develop your abilities, you can become a truly powerful witch.
23:43Almost like me.
23:44But you should be careful, Aurora.
23:46With great power comes great responsibility.
23:50Great.
23:50The Uncle Ben speech.
23:51She didn't pay attention to my comment and bombarded me with questions about my family background.
23:57Still, she had no evidence of any magical heritage.
24:01I also shared the details of my mundane life, which sounded even duller than I thought.
24:06Looks like your powers were suppressed until yesterday.
24:10But I can't figure out why.
24:12Is there a way to find out?
24:13I'll try my best.
24:15But you may never know why this happened.
24:18For now, focus on mastering your powers.
24:20You need to be strong.
24:23There are many dangers out there.
24:25Suddenly, I recalled Leo's words from last night.
24:28You're an amateur witch, and I'm a pro demon hunter.
24:31I was assigned to watch over you.
24:33By whom?
24:34And why?
24:35I thought about asking Evelyn, but something stopped me from doing so.
24:39It wasn't like I didn't trust her, but my guts told me to stay quiet.
24:43For a change.
24:44For the next hour, we practiced basic magic skills in their backyard, which felt easy to me after my recent pranks on Regina.
24:51That's great.
24:52But be careful with magic so you don't hurt anyone or get caught.
24:56Sarah shot me an I-told-you-so look.
24:58But what if someone really deserves it?
25:02Is it your place to decide?
25:04Besides, there are consequences on using your magic carelessly.
25:09Maybe I shouldn't have messed with Regina at lunch.
25:12Then Evelyn explained the concept of the realms between worlds.
25:15There's the thing called the midworld.
25:18It's like a buffer zone between different worlds and realities.
25:21It's basically just empty space.
25:24Pure nothingness.
25:26And that's where you can safely use magic that might mess up our world.
25:30How can I use it?
25:31Take a look.
25:32And she opened up the air in front of me and put an apple into that space.
25:37We mainly use it for disposing of things or hiding them away.
25:42The only rule is don't put living things there.
25:45They won't make it if you seal the gap.
25:48No hiding puppies in there.
25:49Gotcha.
25:49You don't need to physically open the door.
25:53Just thinking about it is enough.
25:54And what happens if I just make stuff disappear without sending it to the midworld?
26:00You don't.
26:01It could cause chaos in our reality.
26:04I gulped.
26:04My mind flooded with image of that strange black object hovering in the cafeteria.
26:10Oopsie.
26:11When we stepped back into the empty cafeteria,
26:14the air was filled with a strange buzzing noise,
26:17like a swarm of bees.
26:18What on earth is that sound?
26:21But as soon as Sarah removed the veil, it all made sense.
26:24That black thing was indeed a hole.
26:27It was swirling and pulsating wildly.
26:30And it had grown much larger than before.
26:33It's your fault.
26:34So go on.
26:35Use your extraordinary magic to fix it.
26:38Don't pin this on me.
26:39It might just be a coincidence.
26:41No, it's not.
26:42It was you.
26:43I don't know how to fix it.
26:45I thought it was easy for you.
26:46All you have to do is believe, right?
26:48I got angry and started trying different things.
26:51But nothing worked.
26:52It just made it worse.
26:53The hole kept growing fast.
26:55The buzzing getting louder and louder.
26:58Almost unbearable.
26:59Oh yeah, truly extraordinary powers you've got here.
27:02Sarah?
27:03Okay, you win.
27:04I'll say it.
27:05I need your help.
27:07Then the hole suddenly exploded,
27:09and a bunch of stuff started pouring out of it.
27:12Tops, pillows, loaves of bread, a small tree,
27:15even a bicycle.
27:16Look, there are those chairs you made disappear earlier.
27:19Shoot.
27:20So it was me.
27:22Sarah was right all along.
27:23This chaos was caused by my careless use of magic.
27:27I sprinted around, grabbing stuff and throwing it back into the crazy hole in the air.
27:32But it felt like I was stuck in a never-ending loop,
27:35with more and more junk raining down at me, no matter what I did.
27:39All right, make some space for the real witch.
27:42Can I help?
27:43Stick with me.
27:44She guided me through the process, shouting out instructions along the way.
27:48Concentrate.
27:49Spin.
27:50Squash.
27:51Push.
27:51Together, we worked our magic,
27:54turning buckets as we gradually sealed the hole shut.
27:57Whoa.
27:58That was intense.
27:59But it didn't stop there.
28:01The area around us was filled with a jumble of objects.
28:05Remember your training and help me move everything to the midworld.
28:08For the next half hour, we busted our butts,
28:11getting rid of all the junk in the cafeteria.
28:14It was exhausting.
28:15But I was loving every minute of it.
28:18Feeling the magic coursing through my veins was incredible.
28:22I was a witch.
28:23I was special.
28:25And my life finally had meaning.
28:27Nothing could go wrong.
28:28Um, Aurora, we've got a situation.
28:31I spun around, and my heart skipped a beat.
28:34There stood Regina at the cafeteria entrance,
28:37staring at us with her jaw practically hitting the floor.
28:40Uh-oh.
28:41Uh-oh.
28:41Uh-oh.
28:41Uh-oh.
28:42Uh-oh.
28:42Uh-oh.
28:43Uh-oh.
28:43Uh-oh.
28:44Uh-oh.
28:44Uh-oh.
28:44Uh-oh.
28:44Uh-oh.
28:45Uh-oh.
28:45Uh-oh.
28:45Uh-oh.
28:46Uh-oh.
28:46Uh-oh.
28:46Uh-oh.
28:47Uh-oh.
28:47Uh-oh.
28:47Uh-oh.
28:47Uh-oh.
28:48Uh-oh.
28:48Uh-oh.
28:49Uh-oh.
28:49Uh-oh.
28:49Uh-oh.
28:49Uh-oh.
28:50Uh-oh.
28:50Uh-oh.
28:51Uh-oh.
28:51Uh-oh.
28:51Uh-oh.
28:53Uh-oh.
28:53Uh-oh.
28:54Uh-oh.
28:54Uh-oh.
