Chapter 2
Every fiber in my body ached as I awoken to the feeling of being dragged by my hair.
My eyes burned and my sight was blurry.
Was I still somehow alive?!... or was this a demon dragging me through hell?
I blinked several times to try and see around me to get a grasp of where I was.
To my dismay and joy, I was in the woods.
Whoever had been dragging me stopped and I heard a creaking noise of a rusty door open.
A strong putrid smell ran out of it and I felt myself getting sick from it.
I turned to throw up but when I went to turn over to do so, my captor swung me into a wall.
My back hit first then my head, I was dizzy and was finally able to puke.
It was just blood, and it brought back the memory of the fight and my wounds.
I was still covered in blood and bleeding out, how was I still alive?
A loud grunt made me snap my head up and look to see who or what had brought me here.
A tall beast like creature with red eyes stared down at me.
It had four huge fang-like teeth sticking out of its mouth, two on each lip.
This must be a demon...I had to be dead.
It moved towards me and I braced myself for a fight, but it only bent down and sniffed me.
Disgusting!
I was not going to be dog food or a prisoner to this abomination!
With all the strength I had left I tried to hit it in the face with my good arm.
It should’ve connected with ease, but something else caught me in mid swing.
In shock, I turned to see an old woman there holding my arm with the strength of a man, not some feeble looking old woman!
“Looks like this one has some fight in her still.” she laughed.
“Let me go!” I yelled and tried to yank my arm free but I regretted it right away.
My gut twisted and turned as I moved and I felt dizzy and fell.
“Do you wish to be saved, girl?” the old croon cooed down at me.
My vision was spinning so fast I felt like I was going to be sick again.
“Time is of the essence and I can’t save you unless you agree to let me, we have rules too, they’re not all just for you humans.”
Oh shit...
I coughed up blood as it sank into me I was captured by a witch.
The tales of them living in the woods kept people out, well mostly.
Horrible as it was I coughed out a laugh.
“Is that a yes?”
My eyes met hers and I felt my body going numb.
She smiled down at me seeing the way I looked at her must have given off my answer.
“Well, then shall we begin?” she said happily and clapped her hands together.
What horrors would I awake to, if I even awoke at all?
Before my world went black I thought of him...
“I will not break my oath.” I choked out and then I was gone.
