When I transfixed gazes with Anika, a slot machine type display manifesTugged me in, rollers individually zipping around in blur, stopped left to write a bastardized pun'ch of her surname: Zen•|way•|Jabs!

 =× LeapinGrind between these slot jams to inhabit her humble stature, I never felt such spurning degree of inadequaClumsy. She was born into culinary inheriTacTrade -- but severAiLergies curtailed her from participating around spices, including some fabric sensitivity. She usually dressed loose, in black and blues. Conflictingly, her older sister Koretta, excelled as a chef, especially with beans and cheese, alwaySteering a fresh flavor or gradient.

Nika cared nothing for analyzing compositions, aside from checking labels for nutty contents, oils, and artificial sweeteners. She also took special drops due dry eye. When not worried over diet, she soaked up jazz slinginGuitar stuff, alongside documentarieSound same. Thus was her outcast routine, thirsty for interaction while her interests were a bit narrow and mannerismSpontaneous to attraCharming.

For advenThrill she'd go roller skating and adopToy with stray animals -- whilEngaged in this, she could be found with eyes also hunting the nearest perky female breast (or even eavesdropping on them): a favorite of which was TraXcey, who was consistentLeafing files at the library. She substituteDejectedly any fuzZoo four-legger for her wilDespairinGust fulfillmenTag burden behind yearning belong part of a band or sitcom star, which was unlikely to come together under her poor patience.

Fit came to pass on two occasions, Korey witnessed my devianTaboo indulgence: when I tried straddling a canine & tickling a couple chicKats - then frequently flung her repudiations - until the town was of course guessing about my mentality. Despite doing my best to creep attractPlans hush-hush, fantaSTEered me to investing non-mandated time catering to animals instead of human company... that's abouTime my heart began to unravel & uncontainaBleeDown sleeve... See I especially was fond of flexible and shifty animals, ones that coulDistort their features to unrecognizable poinTerms: the oddballs that made biologists want to overlap categorieSpecies. Deep down it was sort of a NymphatiCharm...a karmic urge to blend seamlessly, immerse at will without barking repulsion -- the natural response to being berated as degenerate. Since deficient in patience, there was barely release for me in a sloWorld... But the environment was listeNoting, planning our renaissance refinement, a release to roam with relish.

fuRopeSlick solvents escort*hopped in my affairs from unseen avenues. Gifts were being brokered into my backpack between school hours: rustic planThread weavings and bouncy root jewelry. All I could feel was secretly admired for the firSTime - ecstatically grateful for it! They were always bioluminescent when retracTucked from light.

But then one day an actual message showed up in three parts: scrawleDirt in native chicken-scraTongue -- under by paws in her chinchilla cage, as well as noodles inside salamanDen: "Your sister's lack of charity withholds even crumbs -- but you have showered us as if veTherapist. + Grant us, terrain fertilizers, to replant her temporarily, until she is made to realize relative reduction ו whilst the meantime you kin replace her respects until cresting crowns of charisma. SpringSpearly, regardens from packyarDENymphs."

After a touch of pondering the suggestion, I quickly wished upon these Admirers of mine as i scrubbed away loose message tracks, looking forwarDismissal of Koretta (even without stipulation how long or under what conditions she would be returned); ~ eagerNose to avert myself overlooked such concerns, as the conditions promised my own assertion at the expense of the bitCHef who had exacerbated my formerly run-of-the-mill humiliations. "Take whateveRetardants they saddle over you, Cutie-crueLaced-shoes!" i spat out at shiftinGloWindy sunset. "Her venom deserves it, and nothing less."

AmonGaps and beneath stacks, roguish relays were being bundled burroWidth rodentia; and amphiBrines were stretchinGuiles unanchored in my favor.

As night rustled its cloak, An owl shrieked against my window, parading around lucidly. By the time i rubbed my sticky eyes and rose, the area was vacant, lefTranslucent as the window above pane. Unnerved restless, i recalled my wisHours ago... Then hustled out into the hall toward Koretta's room. I knocked; and received unstirring answer. So i forced entry = and my stomach lurched at the scene; Her sheets were tousled, and curtains billowed rumples in the wind, that snapped at my soul in bitter-sweet rotations. Koretta was nowhere in sight in the dead of a school night. I was the only one who ever had fuREason to sneak out.

JusThen i caught a sweep of my stiff hair pitching in the breeze, atop corner of a body-length mirror (t'was medium length at that point) = astonishingly, my stubBurn cleft lip was almost unpronounced... my body type had morphed from lumpy to curvy brown skin, eye color had shifted muddy to a hazel. Gawking, I danced and twirled without knocking anything over - i pulled the window shut, without any of the drapes getting clogged in the frame. 

I'd been satisfactorily transformed, swaddling more struCHoardination than ever known! My internal struggles were barely fault of my own. And InternAll-Sew why kneWherever my sister was hookinGlimpse... she must beginning to sink forsakeNumb among unfamiliaRegards; anDiffered prolly without her conSISTalent to guide her measures, since I had adopToward her bygone features. The days of my sniveling messes, were every bit someone else's burdeNoose to drag now...

Positively grooving back down the hall, I was startled temporarily to observe, that my doorframe was absent. It just simply had been wiped out of existence. In it's spot a squiggly worm of movement, my salamander was crawling, latched to the wall ~ it whippeDamp tail with precision, poinTapping trail of goo along the wall. Leaning closer, i scooped up my cold critter, beginning to reaDriPenmanship = We elemenTolls will constrain her, until admitting your three mosTaboo urges to five heartfelt familiars, and likewise three mosTreasured behayValues. At the moment, it didn't appear like a tall task if i ever desired her return. And I was drowsy again, leaving little choice but to return to Koretta's chambers = whereupon i found all my own items were piled neatly in one corner. I set the lizard free beneath the bedframe as I thanked my mysterious whispeRoars, nestleDrowsily into her mattresStuff, dreaming of fancy recipes I might future bake and be praised over...

IncreDisbelief, the next day at all remained, and at school proceeded true fruition; people were complimenting my hygiene and fashion left and right; strangest of all, contacts came consulting MY opinions to ponder. All things that formerLay smothereDesertion around my presence, hood become attractive. I was invited to slumber parties... + I was Revered for my elegant, calMannerisms and baking. (AnoTHing refreSHowering however, was the way the bulk of teachers didn't bend their dutiful mindseToward applauding me more than encouraging students who were struggling and distracted like my former awareness). In that recognition, I was determined to avoid Koretta's previous pompous pitfalls. But the charManifested seamlessly foreign, like I didn't even have to try to blend. I could see how my sis ballooned into a sweeping snoBird, and how her acquaintances were rather hasty to paste desigNudgments. Likely how she picked up the snooty traits - cause she'd d attended sensitively to me until puberty came prickling.

Had mob mentality strained Korey's course to view so many inferior, of was it ingrained in her nature? What about our hearts -- why didn't she attune for the less fortunate inside? Maybe she just had too many intriguing distractions - and I coulDeliciously hope to jump through sucHoops. Even so amidst these new influences, I inserted my commoNurturEmpathy: all the sweet while stuck with nagginGuilt that I should rescue Korey via confession. -- but then, I'd be scrutinized all over again, as it always has been -- appalleDistance of rejection.

Despite how Korey spurned me, I sensed she'd be peevishly reconsidering sucHarDemeanor soon. I shook off the grotesque implications and previous disfavors... I needed to knoWho I was really dealing with in these sudden magical seeming changes... The perspective peeled out from Nika as she began searching into mysticaLore, and spiritual oaths...(Blow me down, I cook'd breathe again! It wasn't my pressing fiasco...) Assuming not just one likeness, we had worn two, and felt forms of isolateDivisions in both!

Nika went on to conclude perhaps she'd been lulled by fae or else djinnto a sort of discomforting promiSituation. She decided to seek any nearby wiccaNext, who seemed calm and inviting enough -- of course this proved to be our local witch doctor, RubeaKurvatoix and maternity... Perhaps there was a critical ritual to mitigate the terms of confession to some extent. Or perhaps could even bribe the fae with something more "personally affordable" and less excruciating.

When Rebecca agreed to meet a few days later, she asked whetheRetaliation was wortHit... Nika replied, "idk, its kinda indirect. But the benefits are undeniably fabuLush."

Becca stated, "You want to revise the terms howevSour... Seww, one hope is to leave sparkling crap for the rodents, and to crystal purify nearby ponds for the amphibians. If revoked, then my engineer maybe threaten destabilize their burrows. But I'll get in contact with reps from each group, in case they seek something else specific in hour area this season..."

The Amphers wanted exaCrystally that surmised salve, but turned out the rodents helDesire for permission to occupy some factory, which seemed complicated at first -- until Saul proposed his own warehouse to share, but only as refuge during monsoon season, since it was only half his problem. With the measure mollified by a substitute, NikAlso was asked to enter a form of payment for Mager services, if able to return life to normal = the Coven. A price that was simply a mutual bonus in Nika's brain pattern, so she joined almost instantly ~ plus her hopes soared higher than ever before that she'Discovered a place of Xtreme sisterhood belonging apart from scathing assessment.

Not to mention, a wooDrum screWeaVEil wished to be her personal palaDiGuide, bestowing archaiClock founTouch and gusTuNEt cloth illustration = they got to working on cosmetic solutions for healthy bulk loss. They called that first one blowiNEck conditioner, and then did Falco a favor by pondering long-term Deodorant doses for his dad. But with her life going so socially smooth, Nika lost amount of interesTouch in the supernatuRAYcling -- keeping up motions merely for trying to impress Becca's youngest sister, Lasciel. Her advances were met with a reluctance, due to unnatural energy toleRinse apporTUnits, and so the low key relationship was limited to less thaNude rubs, and left open to options.

The middle sister on the other hand, Camille, wanted nothing to do with Nika's dilemmas or drama. She was awfully preoccuPryinGraphs. Both sisters were bushy haired, except Cam's had blue tendrilSlipping at the bottom. While her rounded brows ovaLilac eyes seemed to question her own sanity... I observed Cammy strictly limiting herself to only sacrifice and instrument mad'jAches, on a quest for merging elementals and thereby comstrucTough locks and armor. She was far more willowy than either sister.

Meanwhiles, Lascey was frequently getting chased by Nika between study intervals; she pounced and pronouncedly pinned the gypStYle brunette onto a couch, calling her naughty niceTease, while tangling around her hair chimes. Lasciel squealed and kicked about playfully = whapping me square pegged in the chin! #)√<

When I flinchdd, I was again sheltered in the catatonic circle of entranced members.

There was now a sound of blustery pressure in the caldera chamber, as Rovo & Nika angled out a couple muffled whimpers and shivers - which wasn't very encouraging now that I had only left to merge intrueLong term friend. As i beheld Sig'Square bolstered jaw murmuring between malice & mushy amends, I got wondering what the group would be collecting from within my CAMemory jars... His bronze-spackled eyes were the only ones blinking when I adjoined eyes with my lifelong homie =¢_(∆% WheREd s¢ulls hurled like pair of baseBolts into swinging bat and squeezinGlove - both pulverized to ash on contact!* 

AlreaDial sensed something was luxurianTainted, even though he'd warned me his actionSwept ugly a few minutes prior. Yet, the scenery developed aparTrade from my Pal to begin; an aerial view tracked Rivera father on a salty peregrination from jungles between the AmeriCause, emigraTrYoung hitchhike by boat to North American soil -(i saWeeks shreDown a calendar for a soliDuring temperate fall months)- even after obtaining his greENtry card, all the gritty, ramshackle living conditions entrencheDeprived hymn to alleviate little in the way of hygiene upkeep. He'd eat in a hurry, wear stained clothes, and never gave thought to mouthwash besides a cup of tequila.

This first-generationaLag led firstborn Falco steeping in superstition. But the mannerisms also wedged eventual theraPhysiClutch mom, to affaiRiveRoute by time Saul was even in preschool phases, and ultimately split the parental unit. Yet she didn't tunnel roots far from town, just thirty miles to the nearest suburb. Falco desperately fluttered in touch with her, but elected to remain in town where his familiar school friends congregated.

It meant staying to encourage his padre, making sure that his outlook never sank away totally absorbed by liquor over company. It was clearly a volatile spoTime to be pitted against - situation spurring him mature rapidly, for dealing about colDarker cobwebs and quicksand sooner than a sheltered child like myself or even baby bro Sig who was currently swelling along in the womb from alternate Seed.

When Siggy blinked into the light of our Sun a half year later and greWinDOve the grasp of these family shifTears, the exceptional Falcion captivated Siggy so much that he requested to attend our meager elementary. Saul however, wasn't too keen on being toddled after by a sort of lad he considered bastardized. The next semester after Sig adjoined, he transferred out over to a city school and began splitting time between homes. That's when Falco realized his "seconDad" wasn't half bad; in fact unique in opening his mind to technicaLift and light structures -- a frenzied combo cross-pollinated between his origiNative blooDaDevices of manuaLabor. Together it jumpstarted him onto Trade school paths, and he dropped out of highschool only a single year in, in order to pursue specialTinker expertise. While SiGave up chasing his bros magic mysteRows, for more common bonds.

Truly I beheld the scholastic-mystiContrast as a lovely dichotomy, except Falco was hoisTaking the heavy end of the log -- Nevertheless, Siggy wanteDistance & barest to dialogue with alterNative 3rd parental folklore or superstitiouSniveling -- while Falco was scooping it up like eggs for breakfast, and allowinGuru rattles to brim over into his engineerinGoal arrangements.

These comBrO doSEct swings imprinteDeeply on me from elementary, chipped me street savvy above simPull seclusions. There finally cruised into the frame now, myself skittering around playground alongside miniature Siggy!_} or of camping over in suburbia in the Waggire backyard talking about ancesTrail home Honduras, or ancienTech astronomy ~ then watching history programs on cable TV and racing cars while bouncy music was fueling our pistons and pedals... Ah those were the nights! 

On following morning weekends we often watched FalCATimes, tinkering atop slaBricks and graphs in the garage. He would be sucking tubes and exteriORienting supplanted flasks of mulch extracts and chunky, throbbing textures ~ he was shootinGrip for biomechanics, championing ways more fluiDurable than allied synthetics & metALone. I hadn't given quail's questioning crest back then, because the grindiNoises and heat waves were irritating, but it made powerful sense at this alien stage, whether I was sprouting explicit expertise or not -- revisiTooling the measures incorporated, caused me later on to engage studying plant specimeNectar & modes of fertilizer. It always made me ponder how long mankind may have been forgiNatural springs, and filTarping after luxury produce. But what had we failed to extract and manipulaTrack, that other creatures had apparenTinker discovered abouTunnel energy roots or combos?

RegardlesSeemingly by the time nostalGrin flushed across my heart ventriCoils & i refreshingly paThanked the universe for permitting me to perceive, Sig was transitioning far away from mechanicaLoRElish and fairy tale phases in middle school. He proceeded to get really into sporTechniques and social magazinEnsembles - Among a large passion for baseball, he severeDashed major teaMentality from it -- i guess such was kind of a tough strateaGame to sympatHeed with when the bulk of battle was one on one between hitter and pitcher, or else glove and ball. Passing was rarer and less urgent than most other sports.

He excelled better than even a lot of the city kids, perhaps due martiaLearning arts flexibiLending a chiPrecision his shoulder. You can bet the girls came easy with praisEveRound a dual pitcher-hitter (with exotic axeHunt & shooting skills no less). But he slid ever mode careless abouTeam and females once he considered them boring and weak, unworthy of his genuine respect. Whether he wanted to stay out late exercising and hunting, or remain indoors half the day smashinGym and cunt -- if one should refuse a participation request, he'd be miffed unless they had some serious sociaLegiTask. He expected a lot of himself, and thus of others -- offshoots of an entitled upbringing.

He soon yawned at recreational sports & wenTraveling off into extreme sports and daredevil stunts. Falco got worried about his circus acts and started inveSTudying exoskele'Skin reinforcement, while I only admired and encouraged Siggy to every height. Sometimes I'd join him for sessions - despite feeling as a half-League beside his balance. I didn't mind falling second-rate. Activity just gave us some excelLaunch talkNique about. Even for all Sig was, he venteDisdain about Rovo's handsoMuscLEnt mass which they guy must be "taking force granted" wasted on gentiliTYpe tasks. (SiGroucHad to work so hard to hold his own, robustness ones like Rovo inherited at birth)

"What about responsibility?" I used to question. "We shouldn't juSTake claims and get all boasTerritorial abouTalent and success - we weren't the only effort that went into sculpting our abiliTide - altho we may have targeted the path by which others propelled us to possibility..."

"Bud some of us cultivate what we ARE given," he'd counter. "While udders squandeRip: and wad i hate is bums. There lot of 'em at ease beaches, consuMain way more dan dey give back..."

One day while at Dick's sportinGoods gettinGear, he bumped into Sienna sales clerk, & quickly sifted her personality from the resThrong of damsels. It didn't matter much that she was hispanic too, ReasoNow evident being she was rather timiDull, allowing him to take advantage of her without an uproar. Obviously he had a stern thirst for control, and he didn'Tolerate backtalKnots whatsoever - in private, he'd deliver shoves and backhands. Of anyone, the docile dove didn't deserve to be slung down and chafed. But she would apologize and hope it'd soothe him. She thought he just needed the open arms of a chill mother. My fisTightened. There were traces of Capone in his burninGestures!... How did I brush it away for so long? Guess it would have been tougHaving to push him away after a decade - especially since I spilLoved Saul's ingenious crafting, hoping to avoid creaTEnsion.

My concerns fluttering upon Falco, seemed to attract flashes clatteRoping round how frustrated SiGone from afar, about his brother's exclusive perspective -- see Falco refused financially profiteering from inventions, rather citing how they were all natural gift baskets of luxury that could prosper a man'$ basiCritical energy neeDefenses - by sifTapping mothEARth herselForGEneration of fabric and sustenance. Plus he purported it'd backfire to provoke a monopolized half-ass market, since peace pipes of longevity would threaten to smother weaker stimulants into obsoletion. So Sig sabotaged his materials at times. He ripped Falco forsaking minor holidays in favor of machinery whilst not even attempting to attain wealth from such impressive feats!

Recently it appeared he was erecting potenTools that would perform directed choREmotely, and hydrants that funneled vapor and grass into dried meats and salt cloths. In similar ways, from crystals he also made jars and horns that could locaTEXTract phantasMoat frequenSeeds and store dimensional properties for examination. What circus acts of service! I had no idea about the ghosTracking stuff. I guess that was a benefit of cooperating, or snuggling beside Becca.

And because the power he was containinGhost, he was feeding vehicles that could appear like casual cars, but had starLocked GPS and cloak fliPancake into indistinguishable hoveRide more like frisbee or else palpitating bird flock. 

So many advances Siggy and a small pool of others could have enjoyed for free -- if he hadn't fuminGone saBOTriaged multiple prototypes. He'd sneak in and recalibrate a portioNotebook, or offset gear among hydranTools and capsules. SuCHarTampering acts causeDoubt in Falco's ability to calculate correcThrust. Yet he knew in the past, he hadn't been sloppy enough to cause so many successive failures as 3-4 projects in a row.

BuThere were only 4-5 folks who even knew about his garage outfit... so it was only a few weeks before he had pinpointed the culprit as his own brother, from excessiVEily dodging robust subjects. As Falco unfurled fracas, the confession flooded furiously, but the repercussions advanceDeliberately cushioned from Saul, instead of derogatory: forgoing with the fruit of compromise to sell one or two frivolous projeCheaps to mainline manufacturers.

Sig began to feel like a raunchy tobacco puddle after being undeservingly pleasanTreated, but was still happy about the outcome that his bro wouldn't handicap himself as much. He made sure inquire about Becca too, where she was drawing resources from. That's where Saul decided best to diverTrail, to prevent Sig from flipping out: "Her boyfriend works in the mines toward Georgia, and sisters work in an orchard."

Siggy axe`Skepted the narrative without further push, uncertain if prying woulDamage nerves long-term. He left bro to business, & purchased a contract to his first roadworthy vehicle = the Audi which was currently almost paid in full. Because he was of course, born to a father of acadeMerit prestige Architect, merely their shared mother's infedeliTendrills kept him honesTethered in proximiThanks to dodge abrasive hardshiPlumes.
