The Witches' War

Poisoned III

Tamara?️

I slowly turned to my side to see my mum lying on the couch. She noticed that i was a awake and quickly rushed to me

"How are you feeling now? Do you want anything?" She questioned immediately

"I am fine mum" It seems the poison has worn out and now I can ask all the questions that has been bothering me.

"What happened to me mum" I asked gazing into her eyes as if searching for the truth myself.

She sighed and sat down by the edge of the bed " Your friend brought you home unconscious. He said you fainted by the roadside"

"Friend?"

"He said his name is Fred. He actually gave us your note. According to him he was rushing to give it to you until you fainted and then he brought you home"

She took my palm and caressed it looking straight at me "Why didn't you tell us"

They found out that i am a weaver, but how? My brothers promised to keep it a secret or........

"Fred told us" she said like she had just read my mind " You were poisoned honey. Isn't that enough to tell you that people already know and they want to get to you. Why did you choose to keep it away from us"

"I didn't want to bother you..."

"Family is always prior. What makes you think you're bothering me" She cut me short. She turned to her side and wiped the tears that were already at the brim of falling out.

"You'll start training soon. Fred told us about his grandma and we can trust them. The poison given to you wasn't meant to kill you, it was meant to weaken you. That's enough to tell us that someone is after you" She said with finality. "I love you darling and i don't want anything to happen to you"

The time has now come for me to face what I've been running away from. It's very obvious that someone is after me and i won't blame her for taking that decision.

"Where's Dad, Ian and Kelvin" I asked

"They went to meet Mrs Jones, Fred's grand mother concerning your training" She replied "I am coming back, let me get something for you to eat"

Immediately she left i lay down imagining what my life will now be like. Being a powerful creature means dragging enemies to yourself from all corners and having a lot of people look up to you for most things. But was i really ready for that? Will i be able to meet up to their expectations?

She came back with food and helped me sit up on the bed.

"Mum I'm sick not paralysed" I said collecting the spoon from her when she tried feeding me.

"You know, I feel very proud to know that i gave birth to a weaver" She grinned

I looked at her and smiled stuffing food into my mouth

"There's a possibility that the news of a weaver has spread throughout all covens. I suggest you should be careful" She said with a look of concern"

I gave a nod of affirmation

"She's awake" I turned to see my Dad walking in with my brothers. They all gave me a warm embrace.

"How did it go" My mum asked turning to my Dad

"She has to commence training as soon as possible. Instead of training in school she'll be having private lessons with Mrs Jones" He replied.

"So she won't be attending the witches school anymore"

"No, keeping her at sight is the only way to keep her powers in check. The school was ambushed even with the hedge so if she keeps on attending school it'll be a security risk. Let's talk outside" He said and left with mum

"What's going on" I asked turning to my brothers

"Precautionary measures, it's obvious someone is after you" Ian said

"Sleep tight, we'll see you tomorrow" Kelvin said leaving the room with Ian

I finished eating, switched off the lights and laid on my bed. Tomorrow will mark the beginning of a new life for me.

I knew things would turn out this way that's why I wanted to enjoy my freedom a bit.

Writer?️

She was running away from the beast and saw a cave

She got into the cave walking deeper into it not minding it's bizarre look

She pushed open the door and gazed around the walls filled with shelves that were stocked with books

She got attracted to a book that lay on a table so she walked towards it

She sat down ready to feed her curious mind

Immediately she opened the book she saw a name "Samuel Winthrop"

She tried flipping through the other pages and immediately she did she fell down

She stood up panting "It was just a dream"
