ANNA VISITS A NEIGHBOR-WITCH, LOSES HER VESSEL WHILE DOING SO
SO I WAS DRINKING A LOT LITTLE LAST NIGHT, AND DECIDED TO TAKE A STROLL THROUGH OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. THERE WAS A HOUSE DOWN THE STREET THAT HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN UP FOR SALE, BUT IS NOW OCCUPIED, SO I WENT UP TO GREET THE NEW RESIDENTS.
AN ELDERLY WOMAN ANSWERED THE DOOR AND INVITED ME IN.
SHE WAS VERY SWEET (AT THE TIME, THAT IS). I CAN'T REMEMBER MUCH OF WHAT I SAID TO HER, BEING PRETTY TIPSY, BUT SHE LAUGHED A LOT. EVEN OFFERED ME SOME STUFF TO DRINK. LOOKED LIKE PURPLE NURPLES, SO I TOOK A FEW SHOTS. WE TALKED A LITTLE MORE--I DON'T KNOW ABOUT WHAT--BUT I BLACKED OUT SOON AFTER.
I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG I WAS OUT, BUT SHE WOKE ME UP WITH TEA.
I STILL FELT A LITTLE GROGGY EVEN AFTER DRINKING IT, SO ASKED IF I COULD USE HER BATHROOM TO WASH MY FACE.
WHEN I LOOKED IN THE MIRROR...
THAT WAS MY REFLECTION.
CLEARLY, NOT MY FACE.
I FREAKED AND RAN OUT OF THERE AND STARTED CALLING FOR HER, BUT SHE WASN'T IN THE DINING ROOM WHERE I WOKE UP. I HEARD SOME CLANGING AND BANGING, SO I BROKE INTO THE BASEMENT.
THE OLD BAT HAD MY VESSEL DANGLING FROM A ROPE ON THE CEILING ABOVE A VAT OF HEAVEN-KNOWS-WHAT. IT HIT ME--THIS LADY WAS SOME KIND OF WITCH, USING MY BODY FOR SOME WHACKED OUT SPELL, SO I LUNGED AT HER WITH A CROWBAR.
DURING THE FIGHT, SHE SAID SHE'D MOVED INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO SPY ON ME AND GABE, AND NEEDED OUR ANGEL-BLOOD FOR SOME WEIRD RECIPE. I DIDN'T WANT TO FIND OUT WHAT, SO I BEAT HER OVER THE HEAD REPEATEDLY UNTIL SHE STARTED BEGGING FOR MERCY.
SHE PROMISED NOT TO HARM MY VESSEL AS LONG AS I STOPPED TRYING TO KILL HER, SO I BACKED OFF. BUT AS SOON AS I PUT THE CROWBAR DOWN, THE WENCH POOFED AWAY--WITH MY BODY. I SEARCHED EVERY SINGLE NOOK AND CRANNY IN HER HOUSE, BUT IT WAS NOWHERE.
I STARTED CRYING AFTER RUNNING AROUND FOR AN HOUR, BUT I FINALLY FOUND A NOTE IN THE BATHROOM--TELLING ME THAT I HAVE UNTIL AUGUST 9TH TO FIND MY BODY OR ELSE SHE'S GONNA DRAIN THE BLOOD OUT OF IT. SHE DIDN'T LEAVE ME ANY HINTS OR CLUES, ONLY HER NAME (MATILDA) AND THE NAMES OF A FEW OTHER WITCHES IN HER CULT OR WHATEVER.
NEEDLESS TO SAY, I'M PISSED. AND I'M GOING TO SMITE THAT WENCH AS SOON AS I GET MY REAL BODY BACK.
BUT UNTIL THEN, I'M STUCK IN MEGAN FOX.
ON THE BRIGHT SIDE, SHE'S REALLY BEAUTIFUL. I SHOULD BE THANKFUL THAT I DIDN'T GET JOAN RIVERS OR SOMEBODY GROSS LIKE THAT.
I'M NOT SURE HOW I FEEL ABOUT ALL THESE TATTOOES, THOUGH...AND I'M SHORT. AND THIS HAIR IS SO, SO LONG. AND NOT RED. -SIGH-
SO I'M GONNA HAVE TO SET OUT TO FIND THAT WITCH BEFORE SHE DOES SOMETHING TERRIBLE TO MY VESSEL. GONNA BE HARD WORK, GIVEN THAT I'M WITHOUT MY MOJO, BUT I'M DETERMINED. I CAN ONLY HOPE I FIND HER IN TIME...
WILLA SAID SHE'D BE AT MY SIDE THROUGHOUT THIS ENTIRE GOOSE CHASE. IN CASE ANY OF YOU WANT TO JOIN ME (GABE, LUCI, TESSA, LIL?) ON MY JOURNEY AT ANY POINT FOR HOWEVER LONG YOU WANT, YOU DEFINITELY CAN. I COULD USE THE HELP, BUT I DON'T WANNA KEEP ANY OF YOU FROM GOING ABOUT LIKE NORMAL. I WAS STUPID AND I'VE GOTTA PAY FOR IT. GIVE US A CALL AND WILLA SHOULD BE ABLE TO BAMF US BACK TO YOU WHEN WE GET THE CHANCE.
WE'RE LEAVING TOMORROW EVENING. I'M GONNA TAKE A GOOD 24 HOURS TO, YOU KNOW...GET USED TO DOING STUFF. THIS IS ONLY THE SECOND TIME I'VE EVER HAD TO BE IN A BODY OTHER THAN MY OWN, AND IT TAKES SOME ADJUSTMENT.
I WOULD SAY I NEED A DRINK, BUT DRINKING GOT ME INTO THIS MESS...
[ooc: this whole thing is to compensate for mine and my sister's being away in florida for a month and a half with little/no internet access ;_; i'm gonna be busy with rl friends tomorrow and with my mom sat so i can't be on much before we go on sunday morning. we'll try and come on as often as we can while we're there, but it won't be a lot :/ i'll be back on the regular when i get home in august, willa will come home some time in july. we both love you all sfm<3]
