Lita pales at Ruby's words. If that's the case, you definitely should wear this. She quickly removes the necklace and places it around Jasmine's neck. But as soon as it is clasped, it dissolves and re-appeares back on Lita's neck. She stands there looking shocked. That explains why somone would need to kill me and not just steal the necklace. She shrugs her shoulders, unable to explain the mystery of the jewel. This necklace has been in my family for generations. It belonged to my great-grandmother, Angelita Smith. She was a witch. Her hand touched the jewel, and she listened as it wispered its story to her. She got this necklace from a wizard, who at the time, was her admirer. He wanted to present her with something powerful and beautiful, ornimenal yet functional. She accepted the gift but eventually fell in love with and married a muggle, John Stealy. It seems, she was unable to return the necklace to her admirer and so eventually, she passed it on to her youngest daughter, my Nana. Nana didn't have any daughters, so she held on to the necklace and passed it to me. Lita stopped talking, the memory of her grandmother causing a knot in her throat. That was after I'd gotten my letter for Hogwart's, right before she . . . She refused to finish the thought. And continued with the story. When Nana gave me this necklace, she told me about Angelita being a witch. But she didn't mention anything about it being enchaned. In fact, it's never shown any sign of being in anyway special before tonight. These abilities it apparently has, is new to me.
