Did someone cast a spell or curse?? Amaryllis

Wearing


Amaryllis layed across her bed sideways. She moved a lot in her sleep, and often would end up on the floor if she wasn’t careful. Not that she ever noticed, but instincts often took over when she slept, and God forbid she ever got a bad night’s sleep. Tidus would often call her ’beasty’ if she was ever grumpy or in any kind of bad mood. As Vanya entered she was so startled that she fell down her bed and just looked up at Vanya from the floor.

”I think it has to do with that witch …. What a cunning little bitch,” Amaryllis sang and then gasped slightly, however it still sounded like a melody. Her eyes opened up and she shook her head. No. This was not real. Quickly she got to her feet and walked over to Vanya. ”Vanya things here are not right, we spoke about this last night,” she sang grabbing Vanya’s hand and walking out into the hallway. Around them people where singing as well when they spoke, however they didn’t seem to much aware of it.

”Oh no, oh dear – this is my worst fear. A world like a musical production, I think this is going to end with our distruction,” she sang looking around the big mansion.

Amaryllis hardly knew what to do, but the spell – or maybe rather curse – made her mind go at a million miles an hour. Songs, rhymes, lyrics, melodies. Everything in her mind screaming to get out of her mouth and show the world. ”I’m feeling that I might go insane, we should find the witch and get rid of this pain,” she sang as she followed Vanya into the garden. Her feet made a few skips as if she was beginning to dance to a number in her head. She stopped as Vanya sang and put her hands on her shoulders, her face getting slightly pink at the touch. ”Oh no I think it’s getting worse – the dancing, the singing, why it must be the curse,” she sang now feeling her legs move under her. She had barely any control as she grabbed Vanya and swung her around the garden. They were like well planned choreographed dancers, moving elegantly through the garden as Amaryllis hummed a melody to dance to.

”Vanya, I’ve always wanted to tell you that,” she sang as she swung Vanya through the garden. The next lyrics where to much to utter, so she quickly changed it. ”I think dancing is way worse than combat,” she sang and let out a groan.

Vanya’s small snort made Amaryllis laugh a bit as she looked at her friend. Love was a big word in this world, but they had that. Amaryllis wanted to tell Vanya what she really felt, but she was good at hiding her true feelings – even from the ability that Vanya had. Maybe it was because she knew how the ability worked, but she wasn’t really sure. Even though the lyric had been at the tip of her lips, she couldn’t bring herself to say it. What if it meant that Vanya would look differently at her from now on? She let out a sigh that sounded more like a small hum.

”Getaway would suggest that you enjoy this, so maybe ignorance is bliss,” she sang and watched as Vanya pulled away from her. A small bit of her felt like it hurt that she would move away from her, but she understood that they would have to find a way to solve this curse. Vanya was getting dramatic now, sitting down and singing about what it would take for them to stop it all. ”Dear friend, we must not delay, instead keep this curse at bay,” she sang looking down at her friend. She reached her hand down to her friend to help her up again. There was no reason to be sitting down this moment. They had to find the witch and get the curse off of them.

”Witches cannot always be trusted, but we need to stop this before we get busted,” she sang in a serious tone. If they couldn’t stop the curse then she feared their parents singing a whole musical number about how they were grounded for eternity.

Amaryllis felt her body moving to this rythm in her head, like every step she took was planned ahead of time. As if this choreoagraphy was predetermined by some unknown force. She felt Vanya’s hand entangle with her own, and a faint pink color appeared in her cheeks. However she could barely say or sing anything at this moment as Vanya pulled her through the garden and to the front of the house. Oh no. All of those people dancing around them. She felt like laughing, but instead a small giggle escaped her lips as they were surrounded by the staff. Though the situation was serious, it was so weird standing here with her best friend in some fucked up musical number, that was now their life.

”I can't decide what's wrong, what's right. Which way should we go? Should we prepare to fight?” she sang looking at the staff dancing around her. Amaryllis smiled to her friend and wuickly looked down as she blushed. Why was her emotions getting to her? Was it part of the curse? Maybe she was just going crazy from bursting out the lyrics in her head. She knew that as soon as she would sing, the whole courtyard of people would join her. Could she do it right now? Her mouth mumbled some melody and soon the many workers were singing her melody. ”I met this girl that rocked my world like it’s never been rocked, And now I’m living just for her and I won’t ever stop,” she sang and walked over to the dancers as she joined them. How weird was this?
”I never thought it can happen to a girl like me, But now look at what you’ve done, you at got down on my knees,” she sang as she felt her body drop to both her knees. Oh my god. This was really happening. She jumped to her feet and the dancers started to go into formation behind her. ”Because my love for is ridiculous, I never knew,” she sang. The dancers yelling back to her ”who knew?”, and she let out a laugh as she continued her song. ”That it can be like this,” she sang.

Amaryllis thought this was crazy and she watched Vanya as she sang to her. Did Vanya just blush? She couldn’t tell cause her body forced her to swing around. As soon as her verse ended she felt the melody of another song, and now it was Vanya singing to her. Amaryllis turned as red as a tomato as she looked at her friend, as she was pulled close to her. She couldn’t help but let out a little nervous laugh, and she looked away. This was probably the curse playing tricks on both of them, but it felt so real. She bit her lip as they started running, and Amaryllis joined in harmonies. As Vanya swung her around she let out a big laugh and now felt a new song coming to her. ” I close my eyes and I can see, The world that's waiting up for me, That I call my own,” she sang as she now smiled. Bringing down the tempo a bit, but still being very aware of what she was singing. She walked with Vanya, just holding her hand. ”Through the dark, through the door, Through where no one's been before, But it feels like home,” she sang as they stepped out into the streets. People were joinng them as the song picked up the pace.

”They can say, they can say it all sounds crazy, They can say, they can say I've lost my mind. I don't care, I don't care, so call me crazy, We can live in a world that we design,” she sang spinning Vanya into the city center, grabbing her and now dancing around the fountain in the middle of town. ”'Cause every night I lie in bed, The brightest colors fill my head, A million dreams are keeping me awake - I think of what the world could be, A vision of the one I see,” she sang looking at Vanya’s eyes and then letting her go to jump up on the fountain.

”A million dreams is all it's gonna take - A million dreams for the world we're gonna make!” she sang with a smile holding out her hand to her friend.

Amaryllis felt her cheeks grow even more red, if that was even possible at this point. As Vanya continued the song, she just stared in awe at her friend. Her heart was beeting faster, but she didn’t really know if it was because of all of the singing and dancing, or if it was really her feelings for Vanya acting up. She tried to ignore it, but the way that Vanya danced with her, now grabbing her arm. Amaryllis tried to stabilize her friend, so they didn’t fall into the water. She went closer to Vanya’s lips, but then pulled away, a new song ranging from her chest. ”I don't have time for dancin', That's just gonna have to wait a while,” she sang, jumping down from the fountain. People now looking at both of them as if this was the start of a new number, which it clearly was. ”Ain't got time for messin' around, And it's not my style - This whole town can slow you down, People takin' the easy way,” she sang skipping over the rocks lining the walkway.

”But I know exactly where I am going, Gettin closer 'n closer every day,” she looked over at Vanya. Did she know how Amaryllis really felt? Not just because of her powers, but really felt it? ”And I am almost there - I'm almost there. People down here think I'm crazy, But I don't care,” she sang, people now joining in a jazz dance as she spun around herself now looking at Vanya with a smile. ”Trials and tribulations - I've had my share. There ain't nothin' gonna stop me now, 'Cause I'ma almost there,” she sang out loud. Walking back to her friend, grabbing her hand and pulled her with her through the streets.

”I remember Daddy told me: Fairy tales can come true, You gotta make 'em happen, It all depends on you,” she sang as they now got to the town gates. She stopped up and looked at Vanya with a smile. ”So I work real hard each and every day, Now things for sure are going my way, Just doing what I do, Look out Boys I'm coming through,” she sang and pushed up the gate to let them out into the country side. Maybe if they got out of town, they could focus a bit more, without all their backup singers and dancers.

Amaryllis wanted to hit the theif, but another thief grabbet her by her waist, pulling her into the inn as the song continued. She was let go off and still stood with Vanya in her hand. What was going on? She froze as she saw the big thief jumping to the piano and playing as he sang, and she made a quick jump of surprise as the other people in the inn started singing along. Amaryllis turned her head to face Vanya as the room changed into the song her friend now was singing. She shook her head and let go of Vanya’s hand walking a bit away. The room changed once more at the crowd started cheering on Amaryllis to dance. ”You'll never know, Oh, I know, If you never try,” they sang but she simply shook her head. ”There's just one little thing that stops me ev'ry time, yeah!” she sang looking confused to the fact that she knew this song. A man pulled her up onto one of the tables singing to her: ”Come on!”. She shook her head walking across som etables to get away from the people.

”I don't dance!” she sang, but the people in the inn continues to cheer her on: ”We know you can,” they sang loudly. ”Not a chance,” she sang back, and couldn’t help but laugh a bit as she was grabbed and lifted into the air by another big man. ”If I could do this, well, you could do that,” he sang. ”But I don't dance, I don't dance!” she sang laughing. As soon as she was placed on the floor she felt her body move by it’s own to the beat and she shook her head almost at the point of giving up. She needed to get away from this. That’s when she felt a new song bursting into the room.

”Won't you come see about me? I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby,” she sang walking back towards as the inn sang the melody of the song. She reached for Vanya, because if Amaryllis was forced to dance, she would rather have her friend with her. ”Tell me your troubles and doubts, Giving me everything inside and out and, Love's strange so real in the dark, Think of the tender things that we were working on,” she sang looking away at the word ’love’. Was it weird that she felt like this for her friend? Maybe it was, but Amaryllis didn’t know how else to describe the feelings she had towards Vanya. She swung her around,

”Slow change may pull us apart, When the light gets into your heart, baby,” she sang biting her lips as the in started singing the chorus on their own. ”Don't you, forget about me, Don't, don't, don't, don't Don't you, forget about me,” they sang dancing along and around them. Amaryllis couldn’t help but laugh a bit as she felt her heart beat faster. Couldn’t she just do it? Lean in and kiss Vanya like she always had wanted to? Before she gave it any more thought the son continued, and Amaryllis was feeling the lyrics a bit in her soul.

”Will you stand above me? Look my way, never love me,” she sang trying not to let her feelings too obvious. She was bad at that. Fuck. ”Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling, Down, down, down,” sang the inn. ”Will you recognize me? Call my name or walk on by,” she sang. ”Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling, Down, down, down, down,” the inn replied.

Amaryllis broke into a big laugh as the crowd started singing another song, and she was honestly a little relieved. Maybe because that song made her feel stuff she wasn’t sure she was ready to share with her friend. Emotions like that could break a friendship like theirs in half, and the thought scared her. Amaryllis never felt like she was enough. She felt that she might as well could dissappear at times, but those feelings she was good at keeping. Her smile always on her lips, even when her emotions ran wild. Some would call her weird for having such a bond with her emotions, but truth be told, all her abilities were triggered by her emotions. While some of her friends could easily control their abilities, she was not as lucky. The smallest frustration could turn her into a hurricane of feelings. As Vanya started singing, she smiled however. Because how could she not? Watching her friend dance, being happy after what had happened to her was good.

Vanya pulled her with her and Amaryllis was now dancing next to her friend. Though she normally hated dancing, she felt it a bit of a relief to just throw out songs and feel the music in her body. But she also knew that they had to stop this. It had been going on for a while now, They had to get out of town, maybe then they could figure out a plan? All curses could be broken, that was just a fact of life and magic. Amaryllis didn’t have magic abilities, not that she could recall, and she hated not being able to just stop this. Her heart raced as she now grabbed Vanya’s hand, a new song filling the room. ”You stumble through your days, Got your head hung low. Your skies' a shade of grey, Like a zombie in a maze. You're asleep inside, But you can shake away,” she sang as they all now moved back into the streets. Amaryllis let go of Vanya’s hand, leading the crowd as she moved almost like an animal to the rythm of the music.

”'Cause you're just a dead man walking, Thinking that's your only option, But you can flip the switch and brighten up your darkest day,” she sang as dancers around her started jumping in front of her, spinning wildly to the music. They lifted her into the air and she reached her hands towards the sky. ”Sun is up and the color's blinding, Take the world and redefine it. Leave behind your narrow mind, You'll never be the same,” she sang now being sat down and dancing towards Vanya with the group of dancers behind her. She circled her friend as she sang the next part of the song.

”Come alive, come alive. Go and ride your light, Let it burn so bright. Reaching up, To the sky, And it's open wide, You're electrified!” she sang, now grabbing Vanya’s hand as she started running out of town, the dancers following close behind. The countryside was wide open and had a lot of room for the dancers. ”When the world becomes a fantasy, And you're more than you could ever be, 'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open,” she sang, letting go of Vanya’s hand to join the dancers. She swung around and let her body move to the rythm.

”And you know you can't go back again, To the world that you were living in, 'Cause you're dreaming with your eyes wide open, So, come alive!” she sang.
