• The witch laughed as she paid the guard her money. She walked up to the boy on the stage and smiled down at him.
    He glanced up, staring at her for a second before bowing his head back down.
    The witch looked pleased and hollered over to the guard "I'll take this one."
    The boy was untied and given to the witch on a leash. She ssmiled. "Thank you."
    The witch brought the boy all through the town until she finally got to her house. "This is where you shall help me." she announced.
    The boy solemnly nodded.
    "First," began she "You shall help me go get groceries." she said, "But not just normal groceries. I need herbs from the store by the castle gates.
    "B-but that's a witchcraft store..." he stuttered.
    She shook her head. "Exactly."
