Episode 19
“This isn’t good Kay.” Said Tabitha. “This isn’t good at all. Now I have not one but two apprentice witches living under my roof.”
“I’m not quite as bad as I used to be.”
“Yes, yes, I know that dear, but you still have so much to learn. And now, Essme with powers; why, that’s like giving a pyromaniac a book of matches.
“Excuse me I’m standing right here. Pointed out Essme.
“Why couldn’t you have used that last wish on something else, anything else? Why did you just leave it hanging out there? But that’s my fault I should have reminded you. Oh I don’t know I just don’t know. At this point Maria knows more about magic than you do.”
“Again- - Me- - standing- - right- - here.” Said Essme.
“It’s alright Tabitha.” Said Kay. “We can teach her.”
“Oh that’s rich ‘We’.”
“Tabitha?!”
“I’m sorry dear it’s just with all I’m dealing with right now this is the last thing I needed.”
The three women were so absorbed in their conversation that they didn’t notice that Endora and Mariah had left the kitchen for the living room.
“There’s never a dull moment around here with your mom and my mom.” Bubbled Maria.
“You said it.” Bubbled Endora.
“Hey why don’t we go outside and check out the pony Essme conjured?”
“Lead the way.”
When the two little witches stepped outside they were met by Marty, Sarah and James coming through the gate.
“We were just coming over here to talk to you two.” Said Marty.
“Or your moms.” Put in Sarah.
“Our moms are busy in the kitchen right now with Essme.” Bubbled Maria.
“What did you want?” Bubbled Endora.
“We were wondering about the pony in your back yard.” Said Marty.
“I haven’t seen it yet.” Bubbled Endora. “We were just coming out here to look at it. Oh there it is.”
“Are you going to ask them Marty?” Said James.
“Ask us what?” Bubbled Endora.
“When he saw the pony James had this idea that we could borrow it to help us try to find Sarah’s Mom.”
“That sounds like it would be a fun adventure.” Bubbled Maria. Can we come?”
“I don’t see why not.” Said Marty.
“But where do we start?” Bubbled Endora.
“Why don’t you and Maria use your magic to help us figure it out?”
“James!” Marty scolded.
“What? They’re witches aren’t they? And why hasn’t Sarah used her powers to try to find her Mommie? She’s a witch too isn’t she? Remember how she rubbed a hole in the kitchen door.”
Sarah looked stricken. “No one else was supposed to know. Marty I meant to tell you not to tell anyone about my powers and then I forget and use them in front of James.”
“It’s alright Sarah. I promise…and James does too; not to say anything to anyone. Right James?”
“Right.”
“It’s just that I got so worried yesterday when I heard Endora’s mom say to that man Julian that the town would burn you at the stake if they found out you were a witch.”
“I don’t think they do that anymore.” Bubbled Endora.
“But it’s sill a good idea to keep quiet about it.” Bubbled Maria.
“So, do you think you can find Sarah’s Mom by using your powers?”
“I don’t know but we can try.” Bubbled Endora
“Let’s try something simple.” Bubbled Maria. “She is a girl we met only yesterday/The house next door is where she’s now from/Please can we see Sarah’s Mom.”
An image of a house appeared in the air before them.
“That must be where she’s staying.” Bubbled Endora.
“But I’ve never seen that place before.” Said a confused Sarah.
“We need to go check it out.” Bubbled Endora
“I’m game if you guys are.” Said Marty.
“Now we could just pop over there but we said we wanted and adventure.” Bubbled Maria. “I think James had the right idea. Let’s take turns riding the pony.”
“And to guide us on our way.” Endora reached into the image in front of them and pulled out a piece of parchment. “This map.”
The fivesome were soon on their way with the image of the boarding house where Ethan and Gwen live slowly fading behind them.
