The Dragon Kingdom

The Birth Of Witch

When the Messenger saw the mark, he was shocked and moved closer to Anabel, looked straight into Anabel's eyes. Anabel was so confused because of the way Messenger was looking at her seems as if he knew her before.

Then Messenger hold her hand and said 

"My child where are you going? it late, you should go back to the kingdom"

Anabel looked troubled, and face down then messenger said 

"You will be pregnant in the next moon, please don't keep the child alive"

 Anabel drag her hand from messenger and said 

"I don't know what you're talking about" Raising her voice towards Messenger. 

Then she wanted to  walk away when messenger replied to her and said

"You're pregnant for the prince, but please do not let your child know that is from a royal family, that is if you will keep the child alive.

Anabel look back and said 

"What are you talking about?"

"Stay with me till daybreak, then you can leave when the rise back, I will get firewood." 

The messenger got firewood, Anabel sat down looking at Messenger because she was so confused and can't explain what is going on.

Two little rats were running after each other, Anabel used magic to kill them. Messenger smile at Anabel, then set fire on that rat, and roster them for dinner.

The next day before sunrise, Messenger told Anabel to please kill the child once she gives birth because the child will destroy the world, starting from their kingdom.

Anabel resists The Messenger advice. The Messenger told her he would be gone when the sun rises, Anabel made a false promise just to please The Messenger that she would kill the child. 

Then the sun started raising, Messenger said please keep your promise, and he holds Anabel's hands and started looking at the sun, the sun keeps rising and before it gets to the center Messenger gave Anabel a mysterious knife that she should use to kill the child once the child is born, Anabel collects it and Messenger skin started peeling.

All his power started moving into Anabel's body, Anabel was scared and she wanted to remove her hand from he but she couldn't.

The messenger body was peel to death.        

         Anabel took her wrap clothes with the knife he gave her, then run back to the kingdom. When she got to the kingdom, The king order everybody to be in front of the palace that the new announcement will be made. She followed the crowd then the king said 

"The kingdom will not live by the prophecy again, and everybody should live by their magic. Anybody  that knows where one of the priests is, would be rewarded Because he escaped with magic."

Anabel turn back and went home after listening to the king's announcement. Her father was so happy to see her again, she asked her father what reward will king gave anybody that knows where the priest is?  her  father said 

"Death reward, because the king will only think the person betrayed the kingdom. 

*Seven moons later*

Anabel's pregnancy got bigger. Her father was sitting in front of their house looking at Anabel where she was drawing water. He stood up and walked up to her, and ask her maybe she will tell him who is the father of her pregnancy, but Anabel stoop up quietly and goes straight inside their house.

On the 9th moon.

 Strange two Moon appears in the sky, one was the b****y moon, the other moon black star was inside it, immediately the two moons appear, Anabel started feeling pain and was about to give birth.

Her father rushed her to the midwife, where she gave birth to a baby girl. Immediately the child was born, the two moons disappear from the sky nobody notice it but the child has a pyramid sign on her forehead, and her eyes were very redish.

The midwife that helped Anabel was so confused because of the child's look that same night rainbow appears on the sky a thunderous thunder strike, the kingdom started shaking. 

Prophesy was appearing on the temple wall, the king was already asleep the sky change its color to red everybody started feeling weak, while white flame was coming out from everyone's body.

The flame was moving to where the child was and started penetrating inside the child's body. The king woke up from his sleep, then open his curtain to check the sky he felt shocked by the look on the sky and the rainbow that appears.

The king knew that there is a new prophecy in the temple, he was so filled with anger.

*********************

After Anabel was clean up, the midwife decided to run out of the room because she is so scared of the child, then the baby started crying seriously.

The midwife ignores the baby's cry and left. Anabel was still sleeping. While the midwife ran to the palace to inform the king about the child, but before she could get to the palace thunder strikes her and she passes on.

        The next day, the sky has gone back to the normal color, everybody was complaining about their magic because all their magic is gone. 

Nobody has magic again. Anabel father ran away the night that the child was born because of signs that showed up that night, Anabel woke up pick her baby and look straight into the baby's eyes then went home on her way she heard people saying the old midwife is dead.

 But she pretends as if she did not hear anything when she got home she couldn't find her father and she is not bothered about it she keeps on staring at the child then name her Lame because the child looks strange to her.    

          Prophesy keep on increasing in the temple after five years the child is five years no child wants to play with her, nobody wants her around because she looks strange and she is the only one that has magic everybody avoid the child and her hair is very long and it pure white.

 Her eyes are reddish, she loves talking to birds, rats, snakes, horses. Anabel feels that the child might be evil when she grows up more than this then she search the whole house to look for the mysterious knife that Messenger gave her.

She found it and hide the knife under her pillow when sunset down and Lame is at sleep Anabel took the knife and stab her in the chest Anabel started bleeding from the chest Lame eyes were closed and she removed the knife and throw it on the floor then change her sleeping position.

        Anabel was so shocked but the bleeding keeps increasing till she dies.
