Chapter Two : 1692 Witch Attack
Annabelle and Roland hovered nine
feet in the air. Each time they tried to
escape, one of the witches sent blazing magical fire to block their path.
Roland landed and gently pushed
Thomas behind him. Annabelle did the
same with Polly. They had to escape but
how?
Roland shouted, “If you hurt our
friends I’ll make you sorry you left your cabin.”
“Two lost children, victims to the
harsh woods,” Gertrude coldly replied as she quietly moved towards them. “Besides, it’s what they deserve for getting
involved with creatures like you.”
“They’re more human than you!”
Polly shouted from her hiding place behind her big brother.
“Take that back, witch!” Thomas shouted as he threw a rock towards the
old woman.
A cruel sneer crossed Gertrude’s
wrinkled face. She sent another hex bolt
but it hit the bushes behind Thomas.
Roland grabbed their friends and
sped further back into the thick trees.
He pushed Tom and Polly behind some thick bushes for protection. “Stay.”
Tom began to stand up, his
shoulders squared and his brow knit.
“We’re not dogs.”
