Well here it is, my very first attempt at writing a story please be kind to it, it' was only a baby...
Ah and because i'm kind and do not want to keep you waitin, it was never finished.
I publish it here raw and uncorrected, hope you'll pardon me.
Hope you'll enjoy some petty magic and superheroine action.

The Codex
Part I
My Name is Chloé. Chloé Badelaine. I’m a librarian and I work in the campus library of a rather large city in the north of France. And Yes. I’m French.
Librarian is quite a safe and dull job, but sometimes it gets really interesting. Like these time where i had some adventures with some friends in Watertown, and this one when U.C.L.'s library was host to an exhibition of old and sacred books and Babylonian texts…
You’d never believe how many people are into these things and want to lay their hands/claws/paws on it… After all who cares about old dusty manuscript ? Besides eons old demons, demented ancient babylonian cultists and their goofy supapowered hired goonettes ?
Me ! Fichtre !
This was late on some Friday night. The Babylonian exhibition was due on next Monday… I had all week end to set up things.
Fichtre, these things always occurs at the end of one's shift...
Well when I say things…
This one Thing was 5'10\" tall, with dark hair and blue-green eyes. She had a lovely shy smile and was dressed in some lovely green sweater and miniskirt. She had on thick white tights (and that reminded me why winter was one of my favourite season) and pumps on her feet… She was holding a pile of really big books and I could only see her eyes on top… Cute as hell.
She dropped the books on the desk with a loud THUMP. !
I slowly rose my head and met her eyes… Blue green I told… Lakes. I could easily have drowned in them…
- « Oui qu’est ce que je peux faire pour toi ? »*
- « Ummmâ€, she paused, visibly searching for her words. “I don't parlez le French well...â€
Aaaww Cute.
Gave her my numero cinquo smile
- “Well, what can I do for you miss ?â€
- “I'm looking for a reserve book, for the Babylonian Archaeology course.. . Please tell me it's not checked out.â€
I stopped breathing for a sec and looked at her. Babylonian ? Well… This was interesting, none of the local students would have asked for such a thing.
- “Oh you must be one of these exchange students from the US of A...â€
- “Ummm yes†she said “I'm Marcyâ€
- “Well Marcy I’m Chloé, Nice to meet you. So tell me what kind of book are you in ?â€
- “ It's the Babylonian Codex... the copy, of courseâ€
Of course the copy. Even I had some trouble seeing the original one. How did she know about this book ? Well that was so unusual that I totally forgot to ask her.
- “Well .. I'm sorry but you'll have to wait a little while... Someone just asked it…But it must be back soon… Tomorrow morning in fact. 8 !â€
She frowned.
- “Are you in some kind of a hurry ?â€
- “A little...please, maybe I could look at the original in the back ? It will just take a moment...I'm looking to copy one passageâ€
And then she gave me a flirty pout and smile… Fichtre !
