everybody," Ms. Carmona suddenly yelled above the din. She was waving her

"It's time to get serious and make contact with the greater

Shawna," Terilyn mouthed, beckoning Shawna with a wave. "Up

Someone had placed a large tub of
water in the center of the table. Shawna was pretty sure it was not for
apple-bobbing, but she could not even begin to imagine its purpose. On either
side of the tub were candles of all descriptions. Ms. Carmona lit them as the
guests settled into their places. Someone else turned out the lights.
"I'm going to cast a major spell
tonight, my little goblins," Ms. Carmona began in her best witch's voice.
"We're going to put a hex on that fundamentalist bigot candidate for
governor and turn him into a cross-eyed toad." To Be Continued
