The Victim

Anna Pov :

I screamed at the top of my lungs," I am no witch ".

Let me go!

The guard sitting next to me sneered," But you look so young and pretty ".

" What do you mean? " I asserted.

He smiled," Witches constantly take the form of the young dead girls, don't you think why is that so?"

I think he was hinting at the fact that my appearance was not real. How could I possibly convince him?

It would be near impossible as in most cases he would say that I am reluctant to change and show my true form.

But in reality, I am just me-Anna.

The comment was also quite intimidating. I began wailing again and praying for god's mercy.

Seeing me, the guard commented, " Why are you petitioning for something holy?"

I replied with little confidence, " Because I m not a witch".

" Maybe you are and you just want to mock our holy God for fun ", the guard said firmly.

" No! I am mocking God and also, I am not a witch ", I scorned him with frustration.
