The sky threatened to pour, and the wind blew chilly breezes through the streets of Aurora. It was bleak and lifeless in those empty alleyways, and boring to say the least. Evany stopped in front of an abandoned shop and looked from side to side. "Come one! Come all!" Bringing one arm back, she brought the other to wrap loosely around her stomach as she bowed her head at the people passing by. Evany cleared her throat, causing a few pedestrians to glance in her general direction. " Are you prepared to be thrilled? Amazed? Here from the Traveling Circus of Lidell, Comes his greatest masterpiece." With a flick of her wrist, The redhead threw small red sparks towards the crowd that slowly began to gather around her, causing them to flinch and take a step back. Evany had performed many a time, and had been doing the same act for quite awhile. She turned to face the abandoned shop, and slowly did a back bend, before she pushed her feet off of the ground for a hand stand. " I will now demonstrate to you, the matching of the cards!" The crowd whispered and gave Eva confused and annoyed glances. "Reach into your pocket, sir!" Evany pointed with her toes, to a man who was just about to turn and leave. The man stopped and patted his jacket pockets before slowly reaching into them, and pulling an antique card out with his right hand. He stared at it for a moment and looked to the performer with confusion. "What is this rubbish?" He asked plainly. " That! My good sir...is the King of Hearts." Evany bent to place her feet against the sidewalk, and lifted her torso up into a standing position. " The woman who holds The Queen of Hearts card, is sure to make your days live longer and happier." Attachments:

A set of hands began to clap to the trick that was performed in front of her. It was a love spell of some sort – yes. It was a spell. Any witch could point out another right then and there, it wasn’t a hard thing to do. Plus, the beauty of the other magic user made Morgan become more entranced by the woman, who’s movements reminded Morgan of a gypsy. She dropped some change into a small cup for the woman and smiled faintly, “Pretty nifty tricks you got there.”
A gentle smile remained across Morgan’s face as she watched as the crowd dissipated, some even asking Evany if they could have her autograph. Mostly the children in this town. She found it sweet about the children; for some of them actually believed she was a simple magician of a circus magic act. Little did they realize how real this all was. Morgan now wanted to know who was holding the Queen of Hearts from the last trick the woman did, just so she could see the outcome. She was a romantic at heart and loved romantic things like that. One would guess that a woman was a romantic deep down, or so she thought. She then turned her focus back to the woman and remained to be smiling, “I’m Morgan, by the way.” She said softly and held her hand out for the woman to shake.
That’s when it hit Morgan. This woman was not from here, this town was so small that one could know who the person standing next to them was. This girl was a new flavor added to the town that was Aurora, “How long have you been in Aurora?” She asked curiously. She wasn’t one to beat around the bush, if she had something to ask – then she asked, like just now. Her green eyes continued to scan the other female and smiled a bit. She couldn’t help but notice how different she was at just her general appearance. Not that she had a problem with it, but it was already turning heads to the nosey people of this town.

Aria made herself simply blend into the crowd that had formed; she had to know whether this witch was anything to be worried over. Shaking her head, she realised that the witch was just another "good" witch; they were the ones that Aria hated the most. Why did they have to run around sticking their noses in where it isn't wanted? Aria much preferred neutral or evil witches, at least they didn't make you want to wretch. She stood a while longer not wanting to miss a chance at causing devastation to the masses. It was then Aria spotted a second witch watching the small show. "Great, another one." Aria sighed inwardly. She continued to watch for her chance, when suddenly she spotted it.
“That! My good sir...is the King of Hearts." The young witch bent to place her feet against the sidewalk, and lifted her torso up into a standing position. “The woman who holds The Queen of Hearts card, is sure to make your days live longer and happier." It was perfect, just erase the spell and he shall never find The Queen Of Hearts.
As they stood together talking, Aria could feel the hatred for them rising, they were far too good to get along with. Aria quickly decided that a Grey Negotiation spell would stop any of the very recent spells of the young witch. Aria performed the simple magic and walked away satisfied, "He's never going to find The Queen Of Hearts."
Whilst she was walking through the small town an odd sense of guilt passed through her, but she decided that it was because she hadn’t had as much coffee as usual and headed for the nearest place that had coffee. While she was drinking her coffee she noticed the man who had received the card, his face was hopeful and happy, Aria knew that it wouldn’t last long. Aria gave a small chuckle and continued with her coffee.

Evany's attention turned quickly to the witch, and with caution she bowed her head with a soft smile. The sound of the change falling into the cup made her heart flutter. "Thank you. Thank you SO much.."
The man, totally baffled, thanked Evany before walking away. With a sense of fulfillment, Evany reached into her black ripped stalkings from the back and pulled out a queen of hearts card. With a flick of the card it disappeared.. But something was wrong. She felt something strange and her eyes grazed over the crowd that was slowly disappearing, minus the excited children.
Locking worried eyes with Morgan, she smiled as she patted the head of a small girl who desperately wanted her autograph. "Pleasure. I'm Evany." Evany got down on her knees to meet the childs gaze, and she snapped her fingers, a red feather Quil floated to the booklet the girl was holding, scribbling Evany's autograph before exploding into small sparks.
She could feel it. The spiteful gaze that was locked onto her and Evany's eye twitched. She may be a good witch, but she doesn't deal with meaningless conflict. Standing, the child ran off and she turned her head to stare blankly at the witch who sabotaged her magic trick. Just staring, she bowed her head a bit, to peek through red strands of hair, lips twisting into a heartbroken smile. She would not try to fix what had just happened...
Quickly she turned her attention back to Morgan and she tilted her head. Huffing a sigh, she licked her painted lips and smiled. "Been just a bit. I arrived a few days ago." As the other witch turned to walk away, Evany felt rage throughout her entire body, but made sure it wouldn't show.
