CURSED

~Chapter 12~

~Witch's territory~

~Nancy's POV~

It's been a while since I was escorted back to the cell I've been locked in the past couple of days. The dripping sounds of water from the ceilings drowned in my thoughts.

My life flashes before my eyes as I try to make sense of the past couple of days.

Why couldn't the witches see what I am?

Why do they say I'm not human?

Why do my masters keep acting weird?

Why do I keep hearing those voices?

I pace up and down the room trying to find an answer. After a while, I get tired and seat down in the warmest corner of the room; away from all the water puddles. I feel my eyes droop, but I struggle to keep them open. Somehow, sleeping right now doesn't feel right. It's like someone's watching me

I look around the room, trying to see if there's anyone else with me but the little light in the room isn't doing me any good.

Suddenly, I see a shadow run swiftly across the room and I seat up a bit, straining my eyes to see in the dark. Nothing happened for a while, so I relax and decide some sleep would be good after all. I lay down with my back pressed against the wall for comfort and curl myself up into a ball. A few minutes pass and nothing happens, so I close my eyes and allow my mind to travel wherever it pleases.

A creaking sound comes from the door and I seat up, expecting to find one of the sisters. What I find, however, shocked the freak out of me.

Three tall figures walk into the room, right through the freaking door!

Oh! And how did I see this in the dark room, you ask?

Well, there's suddenly, out of nowhere, a light bulb suspended mid-air in the middle of the room.

"Hello, Nancy."  One of the creatures says as they come dangerously close to me.

And how exactly do they know my name?

They finally stop moving when they get about six feet from me. I take a scrutinizing look at their faces as I shake in fear.
They look like horror and nightmare.

One of them is a beautiful female-looking creature with three horns growing on her head. She has an eye of a snake and the aura of a vampire. Her long black hair; matching that of the other two, flows all the way to the ground. She has claws on her fingers and hooves as feet. She is clad in a straight white dress, stopping just after her knees.

The second is a hideous female-looking creature with just one horn on her head. She has just an eye that is in the middle of her head. Two tiny holes are in place of her nose and her lips look dry and crusty. Her skin is like that of a snake and her cloth are all torn and tattered, with patches here and there. Her hands are replaced by tentacles and her feet by paws.

The third however is a male-looking creature. His lower face is covered by a piece of clothing tied behind his head. However, he has a pair of red eyes that glows and a well-toned body. He is clad in what looks like a warrior's uniform, but he has fingers in place of toes and toes in place of fingers.

"Who are you?" I manage to ask as my teeth clatters in fear and goosebumps spread across my arms.

"You question the wrong things, Nancy." The ugly one says.

"How did you get in here?" I swallow as the goosebumps travel down my back.

"Melania let us in," the ugly one replies again.
