"When I wished I was a Witch I meant like an Harry Potter witch, either before or after voldy or outside of England!"
As a little girl I always wanted to be special.
I read anything I could find in the fantasy genre, but the thing I was obsessed wit...
Aikido is often translated as "the way of unifying (with) "or as "the way of harmonious spirit", which I have to say sound pretty witchy to me. The reason I chose Aikido instead of Judo was pretty simple, both looked badass but Aikido looked fancy, and a lot like magic.
I mean, you barely touch your opponent but with the right turning movements you can redirect your opponents strength and attack towards himself. Basically you kick ass and you don't even have to use your own strength, it's badass.
"You want to spar?" Reid asked, as the instructor ordered us to pair up and fight. He was one of Gram's students, or he was before she died. The usual cocky college male student that seriously needs to get his ass kicked by a younger woman than him. Luckily he was easy on the eyes, if you get what I mean.

"Sure, why not." I easily replied, and placed myself in position with both of my arms up, facing my opponent.
Aikido techniques are usually a defense against an attack, so students must learn to deliver various types of attacks to be able to practice aikido with a partner. During practice one has to play both attack and defense, although waiting to see what you opponent does first is always important.
"Hey Bonnie, want to go on a date?" Reid asked all of a sudden, probably trying to make me lose my focus.
"If you can win against me, maybe." I replied, two could play that game. He flashed me a smile before he started attacking.
Reid started with a very obvious face trust, or better called, a punch in the face. Not that he got lucky or anything. I grabbed his wrist, and used my other hand to control his elbow, applying pressure into the ulnar nerve in his wrist, and threw him to the floor. I continued to apply force until he was face down in the mattress.
"You have to try harder than that." I said smirking, as he flipped himself up on the floor. When he looked at me I sent him a wink, and turned around to leave. I had a stupid fundraising event to get to, again. What is it this damn town and events?
--
I got to the grill in time to hear Damon proclaim on stage that Alaric's wife was delicious, seriously, do these vampire even know what subtlety means? Sure just proclaim the guy's wife was tasty in front of a town known to have a vampire killing council, stupid vampire.
I noticed the weird looks shared by Elena, Stefan and Jenna and I immediately regretted coming to this thing. Damn Caroline and her events. Said blonde friend was currently busy with the sound system, but I was apparently forced to be here anyway. Great.
Alaric's date ended up being won by Jenna, lucky him. Matt's mom, who I totally forgot even existed, Kelly won a date with Bachelor #3. Damon won a date with Carol, who definitely cheated just to win.
I got to steal free food from the event, which is a plus, and eventually got to spend a few minutes in Care before leaving. I'm pretty sure Alaric would get killed tonight, but then again, the guy does have the ability to come back to life. Mental list: check those damn Gilbert rings.
