A voice echoed the incantation over and over again.
Wooden squared table with rough surface was covered with a pure white veil net. Four white fat long candle sat by the edge of square shaped table each, with a valcano stone placed by the side of the candle. Ginger and garlic were scattered round about the table top, a steel short dagger and a bowl of pepper was placed not far from the front candles.
Two transparent high cup filled with rainwater stood close the coal medium size pot which sat right at the center of the table. The pot was filled with unknown liquid boiling, birthing smoke and steam that filled the room.
A finger dropped a strand of human hair into the boiling pot with her eye lids close, exposing her dark full, well drawn eyeliner. A black thin clothing material having a gold ring as a pendant was hooked to her neck as a necklace. Her orange shoulder length hair fell down, the woman was dressed in black, matching her necklace and hat.
This woman used the steel dagger to mix the hair she had just dropped into the pot. Turning the substance in the coal pot in one same direction, the smoke in the room combine to form a long large snake, still in a smoke form. Just like it’s master commanded, it open its jaw wide revealing it’s teeth and long tongue before dashing out of the room to go it’s master bidding.
Azara let out a wicked laughter, last time Vimdraolf escaped from her grip, this time there is no one to save his mate from her. Her pet would drain out all her blood, no one can stop the witches from resurrecting.
Azara stands up from the chair, leaving her alter. She walks up to an old decayed woman, her cheek were replaced by bones, her eye socket were almost throwing out her eyes ball.
Mother the job will be done, only fools takes hold of a knife and cut lose trouble. Your freedom awaits you, soon you would be liberated from the pain and take revenge on the dog who thinks he can bite his owner and get away scott free, Vimdraolf who let lose and gave you unspeakable pain. This time vengeance is ours, once again you would rule again Mother Amargo, the one and only supreme witch.
Through the balcony, Azara pet smoked his way into the castle secretly without calling any attention.
Esmeralda felt it like a thick rope on top of her neck, her mind went to Seline, even though she is fifteen, she is still as mischievous as the first day she met her, so she decided to play along and know what Seline was up to. Esmeralda didn’t open her eyes till she felt the rope grow tight, all of a sudden, her air pipe was blocked, she pushed her eye lids open.
The girl she had expected was no where to be found, her hands automatically move to her neck trying to figure the cause of her choking, to Esmeralda amusement, she felt nothing, just saw bunch of smoke, the smoke could not possibly be what was hurting her right?
Esmeralda eyes both widen out of shock, even though her neck was released, fear didn’t let her breath. Lo and behold the smoke she saw turned to a huge snake having two heads.
She fell to the ground right on her back, coving her face with her hand, awaiting the strike from the weird impossible creature, after some seconds of awaiting it’s strike with nothing happening, even in her fear she wanted to know the reason, so she opened her eyes. The smoke snake was replaced by pair of legs, Esmeralda gradually lifts her eyes, she noticed those legs belong to a woman thanks to her waist length hair and pronounced body shape.
Run, Leave The Room Now
Esmeralda did not wait to receive the instruction twice, her legs had a mind of its own, it took her body out of the room quickly, their was no time to think who that woman was, where she came from, and most importantly what kind of creature was that?
Esmeralda you are twenty one, yet you run around this castle like a child, and where is your second, your one and only partner Seline?
Rosa awaited an answer from her child, but got silence instead.
Will You Speak Up Child, Why Are Your Eyes Wide Open As If You Just Witness A Ghost.
Ghost? That I Can Bear Mother, But Not What I Just Saw. Where is Seline? We Have To Run To Safety.
Rosa didn’t understand a single word Esmeralda was blabbing about.
What Do You Mean By Run To Safety? Snap Out of Your Game Child, I’m Not Falling For Your Trick.
Esmeralda pulled her mother by her hand, pushing her to follow. She smiled when she saw the castle gate, at least they would soon be away from that smoke creature.
Seline appear from no where joining the two to run, the girl who had already known about Azara pet snake ran with the Mother and daughter without asking questions.
Two steps and they are already out of the castle, when the gate shut on its own. Esmeralda tried pushing in vain, the gate didn’t bulge.
They saw the smoke, the three move, fearfully turning around. It was at this point Rosa understood Esmeralda.
