CURSED

~Chapter 6~

Or is it a wizard?

Oh well, you know what I'm talking about. He has jet-black hair and matching black eyes just like Lyssa.

"You're even more beautiful in person." He says.
Creepy much!

"What's your name, pretty thing?" He asks in a voice that clearly says 'I have no business with your name and I'm just trying to stall before I do the deed'.

"Patricia," it's not lying, technically. I changed my name, remember?

"Then I guess this is the wrong cell. I was asked to bring a Nancy to lunch." He turns around and I do nothing. No way I'm going anywhere with Mister creepy voice.

"Follow me, pet. I don't have all day." He snaps all of a sudden.

I stand up and follow him. He leads me up a set of stairs, into the main house leads and then out to the garden and I begin to wonder if I'll be served lunch in the garden.  He suddenly stops and I collide with his back and land on the ground.

"Ouch!"

I look up and mister creepy voice is staring at me in a...creepy way. He offers his hands to pick me up and I take it. His eyes flash a bit of red and shock travels across my body.

He's possessed

Even as a human, I know a bit about supernaturals and when a black-eyed witch has a bit of red in his eyes, he's possessed and if it's a lot of red, they're more than one demon in his body.

Adrenaline courses through my bloodstream pumping its way to my legs. I used a lot of force to yank my fingers out of his hold and dash across the garden.

Fear...
That was all I can feel right now.
I can't feel the stones cutting through my foot
Or the branches piercing through my body
But I can feel the fear.

I run till I reach the end of a cliff and I keep running till the ground beneath my feet is exhausted.

You would think everything turns blank from there right?

Wrong!

I'm still very much conscious when I hit a tree and the branches cut through my skin, I'm still conscious when a rock bruises my hand and I'm still conscious when I hit the large body of water at the bottom of the cliff. I struggle to find my way back up in vain. Water floods its way through my ears, nostrils and mouth and soon enough I'm back in the dar...umm, light.

Yeah, the light.

There's the water-like floor again and there's the endless light all around me. And yes, there's that stupid voice again.

Nancy...

Oh, God!

Buried deep in what she's not...

You shall find the sacred lot...

Cursed is she until she knows...

The screeching sound comes back and so does the burning sensation. I let out a scream as I crouch down and press my fingers to my ears. The burning sensation increases and I trash around begging whoever for it to stop and soon, it does stop and I feel like I'm floating. The light is completely gone and it's just the darkness now.

Jason's POV

"Lord Jason,"

"Judas," he walks into my office and closes the door behind him.

"A witch is asking to see you."

"Who?"

"Athena."

"Let her in."
There's only a handful of witches in my territory and Athena the head of their little coven. I offer them protection in return for their services.
