"Why does she have to do this!" Daniel uttered profanity as he ran so fastly until he came before the weeping people who had their dead babies in their arms. All of them had swollen eyes and soaked up torn clothes. Their clothes dripped of both tears, sweat, and blood.'I don't think father explained this so well. Havoc is just a little word to consider the sight before me right now' he surmised and didn't even know when his knees hit the ground as tears flowed freely from his eyes and clouded his vision.Daisy and her parents arrived at that instant and shook their heads at the sight before them as a heart-wrenching pain coursed through them. They strolled to Daniel and raised him.Just as Daniel stood up with the help of Daisy and her parents he thought of Theodora and started wondering where she might be.Not getting answers from his thoughts he looked far behind the people and there she was still killing and ripping babies with a huge scowl on her face and a smile on her lips.He
"You deserve to die!" Another voice shrieked from the crowd. "You're the most foolish being I've ever seen in my life..." "Ugly asshole..." "Loser..." While all the taunts and curses were going on Daniel kept calm and didn't even do like he could hear them. He took his mind to the last words of Theodora which was 'good luck on your quest' as his mind sought for answers. "What quest is she talking about?" He breathed staring at the ground. "Does she in any way know of my desire to go find the wizard or was she just talking about my challenge?" He ruffled his hair in obvious frustration, stood up from the ground, dusted his body, and stared at the dead bodies all over the arena as tears trickled down his cheeks. Adhering to his instinct which was pushing him to touch the babies he strolled to them and touched those without heads as much as he could and walked away sobbing lowly. A sudden wind hovered over the babies that he touched immediately he walked away and after the wind
The people of Hilton Bale after crying their eyes out on the cold blood-filled ground stood up with their puffy eyes and began leaving one after the other. All their heads were lowered and it slammed so heavily as if it wants to break apart. Most left with their dead babies in their arms while others shook their heads and left theirs there on the ground. Tears kept trickling down their cheeks as everyone made a slight bow to dead Daniel's body before he or she leaves. Most of their clothes were torn in several parts and dripped with blood and sweat.Husbands held their sobbing wives in a warm soothing embrace while trying their best not to cry cause they wanna be strong for them but for the first time failed woefully.Both husbands and wives sobbed feverishly like little kids not minding their age.Once they all left Mr. Robert and his wife strolled to their daughter in tears too and helped her stand. They dusted her stained gown and pulled her into an embrace as she sobbed in the
"Help me, guys. I can't carry him alone" Daisy directed at her parents and like if they knew she was gonna say that rolled their eyes at her."Thought you're all-powerful and great. Carry him yourself then, baby girl," her mum mumbled, keeping her gaze away from her.Daisy's jaw dropped and her mouth hung open as she stared at her mum with one brow up. "Do you really mean that, mum? Like, are you fucking serious?""Yes I am," her mum retorted and eyed her."Ain't you gonna say anything, dad?"Her dad shrugged off and fiddled with his fingers for a while before staring at her. "For the love I had for Daniel when he was alive I'll help you carry his body, not him. Is that okay with you?""Whatever." she rolled her eyes. "At least you gonna help me not like some people who don't want to."Her mum chuckled, strolled to her, and smacked her head."Ouch! What was that for?" She whined rubbing the spot she smacked her."That's for thinking that I'll let you both carry Daniel's body alone. Do
Tremendous thunderstorms resonated all over the arena followed by a series of flashes of lightning as a great downpour descended on the little village of Hilton Bale. The morning cries and howls of animals blazed all over as the sky released a great downpour on them. From a distance, running footsteps could be heard followed by heavy panting and screams. Cries of pain were so high in the air and blood kept spilling and splashing in it like a massive downpour. The whole arena was in great havoc as a female who had a deep scowl on her face scattered and destroyed things without mercy. A malicious aura surrounded her as she did things eyes ain't supposed to behold. In swift movements, she yanked off the heads of several mortals both young and old from their shoulders and took out their hearts, drinking their blood and eating their hearts so sweetly with a grin plastered on her face as if it was fresh red wines and bread for body rejuvenation."Spare us, witch! We did nothing to you!" O
"Power is the best feeling in the world." Theodora soliloquized and permeated into her huge castle without unlocking the door. She strolled to her chamber and fazed in with an evil grin on her face. She stared around her flower-decorated chamber as if seeing it for the first time with admiration and smiled. The room alone screamed great power, dark magic, and authority. Ancient books and scrolls filled one part of the room followed by herbs. The scent of her chamber was enough to make anyone keep sneezing. But then to her, it was the best scent ever.Hung on the wall all over her room were dark uncompleted portraits which emitted a dark smoke like the one coming out of her body. Some of the images in the portraits had just heads while the sketch of their bodies were missing. Some had the sketch of the bodies while the heads were missing. Some were just hands while others were hearts and the rest were different parts of the body of both mortals and animals. There was only a full
Morgan Marguerite sighed, tousled her hair, and shrugged off. "You know I had no choice, Theodora. There was no way I could've saved you and saved myself. You should be thankful that I gave my life in exchange for yours.""Yea, whatever," Theodora scoffed and rolled her eyes. "Save me the preaching and answer my question. Why are you here?""Ain't you overdoing your torture on them? Isn't it time for you to move on with your life and let the past be in the past?""It isn't, mother. I'm not yet satisfied. I'll never stop till every one of them dies.""I feel it's time to move on, daughter. Get a life of your own. Get a man. Make babies. Be happy and forget about the past.""Don't tell me that shit!" Theodora suddenly yelled and a great thunder rumbled. "I lost you! I lost father! I never felt motherly and fatherly love and you're asking this of me..." She paused, blowing in hiccups and with just a stare at the mirror hung on the wall it shattered."I know how you feel daughter...""No,
"Relax, little Daniel, I mean you no harm. If I did, you wouldn't still be alive," Theodora whispered and smiled up at him.Daniel cursed incoherently and took steps backward. "You are a witch and your words are not to be trusted. By the way, I'm not little. Can you not call me that again?"Theodora chuckled and waved her hand in the air and a soft warm air began blowing around them. She took a thorough peek at Daniel and shook her head. "You're only but a kid to me, so I'll keep calling you little Daniel. You can't stop me, can you?"Daniel stared away from her without saying anything knowing that there wasn't anything in the world that can stop her from doing whatever she wanted and liked. He wrapped his arms across his chest not being able to stop his shivering body and kept looking around at every sound that chimed."I guess that's settled then, little Daniel. Let's take a walk. I kinda need company.""Why would I do that? I can't be seen walking around with a witch who does nothi
