OH, NO.” MARIEL SPARK STARED AT THE STARTLED
chicken that had materialized on her kitchen counter. “That wasn’t
what I meant to do.”
At the kitchen table, Calladia Cunnington nearly choked on her tea.
“Well, that’s surprising. At least they both have wings.”
Mariel gave her friend a look. She’d recited a summoning spell for an
air sprite, not poultry. “Literally the only thing they have in common.”
“Points for creativity?” Despite the joke, Calladia’s wince was
sympathetic. As a witch and Mariel’s longtime friend, she knew how
upsetting it was for Mariel to mess up a spell yet again.
“It’s a basic summoning spell, not a Jackson Pollock painting.” Mariel
blew a stray curl out of her face, frowning at the surprise avian guest
currently preening its ruffled feathers next to her toaster. Her spells often
backfired, but this was a new level of fucked-up-ness.
“Well, I think it’s cute,” their other friend Themmie—short for
Themmaline—Tibayan said from where she sat cross-legged in midair. The
pixie’s iridescent wings fluttered as she took pictures of the bird with her
smartphone.
“Sure, but what do I do with it?” The chicken was now scratching at the
chalked pentagram beneath it. What would soothe an alarmed bird that had
been teleported into a witch’s kitchen?
“Can you send it back where it came from?” Calladia asked, tightening
her blond ponytail. She looked disgustingly peppy for a Friday morning, her
blue tank top damp with sweat from a recent gym visit.
Mariel bit her lip, trying not to snap. Calladia was the best person in the
world, even if she set unreasonable fitness standards, but she’d never
struggled with magic the way Mariel did. “Maybe. If I had any idea where
it came from.”
She wasn’t sure how she’d summoned a chicken to begin with. Granted,
her mind had wandered to her grocery list while chalking the spell, but it
had been a brief distraction, hardly worth noting. And why a live chicken,
rather than chicken cutlets or brussels sprouts or a gallon of milk?
Themmie cooed at the chicken as she took more photos. “Cluck for the
camera, cutie. Strike that pose!” As a social media influencer, the Filipino
American pixie documented everything, and her look changed constantly.
This week, her straight black hair had been bespelled green and pink, and a
nose ring winked in the sunlight cascading through the kitchen window.
Calladia rolled her eyes. “What is this, America’s Next Top Chicken?”
America’s Next Top Witch was a popular national TV show among both
magic and nonmagic humans. The America’s Next Top Model spinoff
focused more on lingerie than spellcraft, but the models still cast illusions
or shape-shifted during photo shoots. Mariel had enjoyed the show up until
she’d realized as a teenager that she was way, way behind even those reality
TV disasters in terms of magical competency.
“On the bright side,” Themmie said, “you probably rescued it from the
cruel world of cage farming.” Environmental activism was never far from
Themmie’s mind, and her face lit up. “We can build it a coop.”
“I’m not keeping it,” Mariel said. Even though it did look adorable as it
goggled at her air fryer.
