       HOCUS PINKUS! That is an actual attack name on a Pokemon card and I'm making a deck with the Pokemon with that attack in it. It is a joy when you're playing a game and you get to say something as silly as “I attack with hocus pinkus!” and it is an actual threat to their dragon monsters. Anyway onto the flash fiction!

A Wizard And Her Pranks

     Sally confronted Ginger in the hallway of the Wizard School dorms. “What is wrong with you? This prank has gone too far! My room smells like rotten eggs...and all the teachers have been trying to get the curse off it for hours!”

       “Aw, you mad smarty pants?” Ginger took her anger out on other students with magic pranks. And her anger was mostly jealously. Though her teachers couldn't find evidence for 99% of the pranks the 1% still provided enough punishment to label her a delinquent. “You can't catch me for this one. This is the best from my grandpa. Unstoppable.” Her grandfather, who believed everything she said, was a powerful wizard who taught her the magic for her pranks. If only it would have gone towards schoolwork. But Ginger is not a good girl like Sally. Ginger's like a gremlin while Sally's like a fairy.

But the fairy had a plan.

      “Well, if it's unstoppable, you'd better stop it. The teachers thought it might be good if we switched rooms for us to be closer to our classes or something. Guess you'll have the rotten room if you can't fix it.”

Ginger's face hung low. “But only Grandpa or a super wizard like him can stop it!”

       “Well, I guess you'll have to get you're grandpa out here. Oh, yeah he's never talked to the teachers before has he? Only heard your side of the story. Why I bet you never told him you got in trouble and goofed up one of his pranks or that you've been labeled as bad. Otherwise he'd have stop letting you do them right?” Now the girl with the kindness of a fairy grinned like a sinister goblin.

        Ginger left to cast a communication spell to her grandpa, ready to cry real tears, instead of the fake ones she would shed for him to give her curses.
