MAGICAL STRINGS OF LOVE

One day during summer season, Susan had just finished fetching firewood felt that there was some unsettling feeling making her worried. Victoria was playing with the other children while Frank and his father went to work.

The weather was warm and the sky clear, the day appeared to be just perfect and normal like any other day.

Where the children were playing, one of the girls became angry and jealous that Victoria kept winning in each game and so she decided to attack her . When she was about to hit her, a big and massive wind out of nowhere appeared, when the wind stopped what was infront of them was shocking.

Where Victoria stood,, different flowers and plants that are unknown had appeared out of the blue and were surrounding her as if to protect her. She was beyond shocked and frightened. Suddenly the flowers and plants disappeared and that was enough to scare the children and run away.

Susan who had returned from the river to fetch water saw the children running while shouting. She hurried her steps to her house and dropped her bucket and ran towards her daughter.

In front of her stood Victoria who had tears , seeing her mother she broke into fresh tears

"What happened dear,why are you crying?" Susan asked while kneeling on her knees near her daughter.

"I-I d-dont know, I-we were p-playing w-when wind came and aaand"she began sobbing not knowing what to say.

"Then what happened,, were you hurt??"she asked while checking for any injuries

"N-no I was not hurt, it is i-s just that the wind threw everyone around while I was the only one standing and plants and flowers were surrounding me." Victoria managed to say in one go.

Susan didn't know what to say as she was beyond shocked. It did not take her time to know what had just happened. She held her daughter's hand and led her to their hut.

On their way they passed across some children who went into hiding. Arriving at home, Susan made her daughter sit and gave her something to eat.

"Witches are still amidst us yet we knew nothing about them."

Came the remarks from different people after being told what had happened by the children.

The villagers decided to alert the village elder , Mr. Krogstad who was ready to do what the villagers required if what was said was true.

The villagers prepared the fire without giving it a second thought since witches were never welcomed.After what happened to the children who knew what would happen next?

Meanwhile in the Wells' hut,, Susan narrated what happened to her husband and Frank who heard this asked

"There is nothing we can do, this is the time we have to be strong and each other's strength. All we have to do is be truthful since we did nothing to harm anyone." Mr. Wells said with a blank expression

"But what will...." Frank was interrupted by the knocks on the door "I will answer"

"Hello,,how can I help you?" Frank asked with a pleasant smile.

"We are here to get you bunch of witches and to think that you pretended to be nice people,tsk" someone from the crowd came.

Before Frank could fathom what was being said, the little barged in startling those inside.

The members of the Wells' family was captured and tired to prevent them from hiding or running away. Despite their struggle, their strength could not free them neither did their please get them freed

This is what Susan feared but this is was the reality and nothing could be done to rectify or change fate. But Susan promised to alter the course of fate.

What disturbed her was that what happened only appeared when a dark force was around but who was this dark force??
