To Prevent Good Luck - Emily Martha Sorensen
Chapter 1: The Luck
Veils of cigarette smoke drifted across the room. Dice were rolled, cards were shuffled, wheels were spun, and Felix placed a hand on his daughter’s shoulder.
This is my underaged daughter, Amy Marin,
he bragged to a casino employee walking by him. She’s my good luck charm. Aren’t you, Amy?
The girl’s voice was soft. Yes, Daddy.
The casino employee walked past without noticing either his comment or his daughter’s presence.
Felix guffawed in amusement. Children weren’t allowed in casinos, and magical girls certainly weren’t, but the two of them had been clever enough to figure out a way around it.
Namely, Amy’s focus item, a four-leafed clover that she had found and picked years ago and turned into a focus item so that it wouldn’t wither, gave her permanent good luck whenever she was holding it, even if she wasn’t transformed.
Because it was a focus item, it could never be taken from her, and she could never lose it.
Unfortunately, that luck only worked on her; she couldn’t give it away or transfer it, no matter how convenient it would have been for Felix to be able to borrow it.
But that was why she had her other power.
Hey, hey! Look at my eleven-year-old daughter! She’s standing right here! That’s against casino rules, right?
Felix asked one of the other gamblers at his table, grinning broadly.
The man rolled his dice and cursed loudly at having lost his money.
Felix chortled. He loved testing the limits of his daughter’s good luck. So far, only ten people out of all the hundreds he’d pointed her out to had paid attention to her presence, and only two had cared enough to insist that she leave.
Oh, sure, a few other sharp-eyed, shrewd people had noticed on their own and kicked the two of them out. Luck was luck, after all, not a guarantee. But the odds were always in their favor, and there were always more casinos to go to.
Can we leave and get dinner now?
Amy asked nervously. She never seemed to like it when he deliberately pointed her out to other people. The girl had no sense of fun.
After I win,
Felix shrugged. Speaking of which, my luck’s been bad tonight. Blow on these for me.
Amy’s head lowered. . . . Yes, Daddy.
She took the dice from his hand and left the room, walking past the bouncers at the exit just as they were eyeing a scantily clad woman on her way in.
Felix lit a cigarette, chortling. He loved the way her powers worked. They were the best team ever.
And to think that his ex-wife had left them. What had the woman been thinking?
Amy Marin was tired of this. She wanted her father to stop gambling. She wanted to live a normal life, instead of jumping from one wild risk to another. And she definitely didn’t want to be on a gambling cruise ship, where she got seasick every minute unless she held on to her four-leaf clover.
And yet, here they were, spending all of the money Daddy had won at his last major horsetrack victory, instead of saving any of it to pay their
