Scene 1

*Insert spooky witch song here, for example; Seasons of the Witch Donovan *

Sullivan has unloaded several pieces of baggage from the black car, He drove father's car, a
1935 black Buick, Most of the things were there, while we, rode in a 1960 Buick Le Sabre, It
was the family car, and the whole family fits in it. It was a thing of beauty.

Sullivan was pale and looked slightly dead than us, He had wild wind-swept hair and is very
good-looking for someone who looks a bit grayish and white, He wore a white shirt with ruffles
and a black vest as if he came from the Victorian era. I have a feeling that he is a zombie since
sometimes he looks at our heads funny.

*Flash back to Sullivan wide-eyed looking at our heads funny, reaching out and wanting to
grab what's inside, then we look back at him and he puts his hand back into place like nothing
happened. We look at him awkwardly*. He is also very clumsy and walks funny.

But Sullivan has been good to us, he always follows and helps us when we need it, like that
time when Lupus couldn't transform into a werewolf because he was stranded in a field of
wolfsbane along with some very bad bullies who think of nothing better.

Lupus started to itch and started feeling dizzy while the boys laughed at him.

Lupus growled at them as they laughed...

"Oh look it's a wolf boy! The wolf boys going to bite us hahaha!" The bully very pleased with
himself laughed and looked at his friends as he pointed at Lupus.

"What's wrong wolf boy?, Not feeling too well?. Let's teach you a lesson!". The leader of the
bullies sneered, his eyes wrinkled and he stared menacingly at Lupus. They cackled, as they
started to kick and hit him.

BAD idea. Very, very, very, very... bad idea indeed.

They sky began to look of orange and purple. The sun was about to set.

The boys continued to beat up Lupus. He wriggled of pain and most of all annoyance; he lay on
the grass helpless and was pissed beyond belief as he tasted his own blood on his lips.

Then Lupus howled so loud the boys said "Wtf?!, fucking weirdo!". Lupus howl rang
throughout the sky, when the noise was gone they cried, "Whatever! let's kick him some more"
but as soon as they said this, a tall dead like man appeared towering before them.
Sullivan bent down and looked at them one by one, slowly, with his pitch black eyes that were
so deep it felt like it was going to suck their souls out. See Sullivan was very tall, to human
eyes the color of his white grayish skin can be a bit daunting, He glared at them, there was no
sound but they heard something scary like a gust of wind, That said Mmmmmm. /*insert
scary gust of the wind here*/ which probably meant they are going to get eaten very soon.

The boys felt fear trickle at the back of their necks, crawling its way to their spines. The first
bully started to hold his friend's hands, grasping, checking if they were still there. Their hearts
beat fast.

Well, Sullivan did sort of look like a zombie.

"z.....z...z....." the boy said, and then Sullivan muttered "boooooooh!" and at that moment
opened his mouth to bite at the wind.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!" They screamed. They started or at least

tried to run away, one of them tumbled and fell, and tried so hard to get up, and at that instant
checked to look back if It was near, all while he was crying.

and IT was.

When Sullivan tried to take a step, AAAaahhhhhhh!!!! the boy ran and screamed some more.

It was lovely. I wish I was there to see it.

The great part, It wasn't really Sullivan who they should be scared of.

When those bullies left, Lupus was already so weak from the beating and worst; the wolfsbane
was poison to his open wounds, So Sullivan had to carry him and he quipped: "You shouldn't
be playing in a field of wolfsbane Master."

Then left the field of wolfsbane to go home. As soon as they were far away from the
wolfsbane, Lupus wounds started to heal, the blood in his lacerations started to bond and soon
enough, The cuts in his face, hands, and feet started closing. The purple bruise in his eyes,
slowly vanished, until it was only his own skin. The only thing left was the dirt and the dried
blood left in his lips and as they were nearing our house, Lupus eyes opened, He glowered and
at that instant his pupils turned yellow and suddenly, They were pitch black angry.
*Insert scary rock song here example Powerwolf Lupus Dei*

Those boys.

Did not survive the night.

And it was not Sullivan's fault.

It did not involve kicking and hitting.

But It did involve a very gruesome dinner.

A lot of growling and snarling sounds from a big rabid possessed dog.

with lots of blood splattering on the windows and the walls.

And screaming, lots and lots of screaming. Till there was no more.

*Insert scary sonata here, for example, Moonlight Sonata Beethoven*

And a boy's feet being dragged in the forest, with trails of blood on the ground.

He was not found.

Of course, I knew this because when Sullivan came home with Lupus all bloodied up and dirty,
Mother was not pleased, not pleased at all. We had to look at her cauldron to see what
happened, Mother was Furious. Good thing Father was asleep. Mother was about to do
something to punish those boys, but they were not lucky enough to receive mother's
punishment because before she can walk out.

Lupus Pissed, Fumed in his Demon voice. You know that voice that sounds like a demon is
possessing you. That voice; They're Mine!. Growled, Transformed and wrecked the door as
he ran pass through it.

*Insert fun spooky song here example tainted love Marilyn Manson*
We looked at each other awkwardly for a few seconds then Mother whined My poor baby...,
Paused and continued. Well, since that's all sorted out, Someone needs to fix the door, I am
not in the mood for that. Sullivan, fix the door please. and moved on with her life like nothing
happened.

*Insert fun spooky song here continue song example tainted love Marilyn Manson*

Scene 2

Speaking of Lupus, he was wide-eyed and fascinated with the House. "Whoa! we should
definitely explore this house!" he remarked, Then he started to run wildly towards Mother and
Father and into the house door, declared "Dibs on the bedroom!..." Then ran inside the house.

As if Anybody cared.

Wait, I do. Damnit!. I always declared the attic, as my room. I like high places. I like to look
down at how small and petty people are from above the high bedroom window. They looked
pathetic.

Father while walking inside the Manor started talking about its history. I didn't pay much
attention to what he was saying, I wanted to look around and see if there is anything worth
doing in this new house of ours. I started to feel the intricate design of our new fireplace,
checking if there was any secret mechanism, contraption or locking device camouflaged so that
they appear to be part of the fireplace, that might lead to a secret passage, checking the
bookcase if it slides and leads into another room, checking the floors if there is any trap door.
The house was intriguing. I would like to know It's secret. After all, we would be living here
for a while or so, depending on how well we behave.

"As it turns out this was a poison house!" I heard my father say as the word poison had caught
my attention.

*Insert song, for example, Yann tiersen - La valse des monstres.*

The walls were covered in red wallpapers with black accents that cut midway where the dark
wooden wall starts, as soon as you enter it, there was a giant hall, there were black and white
marbled tiles as floors and there was a huge staircase that leads to the upper rooms, The
ceilings were also rich in Renaissance paintings of Gods, Angels, Demons and other worldly
creatures surrounded and structured by ivory carvings.
There were also arched doors that goes to the other rooms in the first floor, we had first headed
to the massive living room, this is not new to me, I am just describing so that you would know.
It was one of the perks of this family. Father was a good business man, he had consumed in his
time, a generous amount of Land, gold and stocks, that we are able to live comfortably.

The living room had huge arched windows with beautiful hand made carvings of animals,
gargoyle, fairies, wolves and other mystical creatures, even huge ornate statues of mermaids, as
well as sumptuous silk green curtains and draperies. There were elegant dark green wallpapers
with black Victorian Gothic style patterns that also cuts at the bottom half and it is where the
dark wooden wall starts.

There was an iron wrought chandelier, That shone brightly in the middle of the room, below it,
was a huge dark red carpet and three black huge opulent soft sofas facing each other, Its black
was the color similar to a dark night, It also had intricate patterns and dark wood to support it.

Near the fireplace was two Blood Red leather Thrones, Its wooden carvings were of course of a
vampire and the other one of a Siren. It smelled of old wood, new things and of lavender
flowers from the vases. Father has once again outdone himself. But what I was excited to see
most of all, was my room and the library. It was waiting for me, but I had to sit on the sofa first
and bond with the family.

Scene 3

The Poison House

As we sat in our new living room father started to talk about the Poison House.

"I believe that this was what they called the Poison house, in the 1820s a strange housewife
lived here, said housewife had a devious habit of poisoning those that surrounded her. The first
person she poisoned was her first husband and their children, after that she moved on to poison
her father and mother-in-Law, then her father. Afterward, she poisoned her second husband and
their children. In the end, she was married to a third husband and they had three children, she
tried to poison him twice but survived and as he grew suspicious he took their three children
away from her. And even though she had done those Awful, terrible things, she still had suitors
because she had a very enviable dowry so people kept coming in hopes that the rumors were
false, only to find out, it was, unnervingly true. She was, a horrifying woman indeed."
In her trials when asked about the incidences, she admitted to what she did; All those horrible
terrible things, all while she was giggling and laughing, pleased with what she had done. The
people felt fear as they saw her laugh. Some people believe that the devil himself possessed
her.

Although I doubt that. I seriously think he has better things to do. Father quipped. We
snickered.

Some people say that the ghost of that strange house wife and/or her victims still roam around
the house waiting for its next victim or maybe even revenge."

*Thunder and lightning *

What a nice weather Mother spoke, She was looking out of the window.

"Why is it a nice weather mother?" the twins asked.

"Because when it rains and there is thunder and lightning, it keeps the family together". Mother
happily replied.

"That, and we can hug each other!", Then mother attacked the twins in their seat and tickled
them to death.

As the flames of our new fireplace lit our faces, Lupus and the twins were goggle-eyed, still
taken with Fathers story telling. Then the twins both said, "We should find her." Next, they
started to move and crawl-walk towards the staircases.

Careful Dearies, We dont! want to dent, the new wooden staircases.

"Yes, Mum. The twins eerily replied in unison, all while chuckling.

"Well that's very well fine but I should go and take a rest now," Grandpa said.

All while muttering Very busy in the morning, things to blow up as he stood up.

Father?! Our aunt exclaimed.

What? Grandpa innocently attested, while he looked for an accomplice and blinked at Lupus
and me.

For a second she was gawking at grandpa then immediately glared at him as if warning him
that he shouldn't do whatever it is that he is thinking or planning of doing.
"Oh calm yourself, Philomena! I am very much capable of controlling myself."

Grandpa was a world war veteran, he would always tell us of tales when he used to blow up
things using his cannon, pulverized and beat the enemies all by himself while his comrades
cower and watched in awe of his blazing glory. But he always had a sad look on his face every
time the story ended, and then he would smile at us with melancholy and say Ah those days
are gone.

But the truth is, It is far from gone, Grandpa fills his retirement time blowing up things in the
backyard, occasionally Time traveling or just general chaos, and once in a while accidentally
blowing up our neighbors' houses or making huge fireworks which coincidentally Grandpa,
Lupus, the twins and I thoroughly enjoy.

The look of shock on their charcoal covered faces when they come out of their houses while
they cough and fan away the gray smoke and fumes, as they scream of horror when they see the
remains of their house had already been extinguished by the explosion. It is, irreplaceable.

"Our house! Our house is Gone!" They grab their hair like they've completely lost their minds
and scream some more. Those looks are priceless. Also, that is the cue that we should hide,
next we would laugh so hard that our tummies would hurt. Family bonding time is
irreplaceable. Lol. Oh please! Don't feel sorry for them, they were pesky neighbors

Cmon now Anastasia, we should get to sleep for its a brand new morning tomorrow. He
looked at Grandma and beamed.

"Yes, Love." Grandma approved. She stopped her sewing and said

Good night Dearies. She beckoned to us and then we smiled.

We love our Grandma, she's just so kind to us, how can you not love a fluffy old woman.
Lupus and I gave her a big hug. Now you have to understand we are not like this to anyone, we
only do this to our grandparents because they are the best.

She always gives us the best cookies, brownies, Milk and occasionally she bakes those candies
for little children that for some reason went missing on Halloween.

Those candies must be Magical.

My mother always says "They went to some place special".

We don't actually believe her.

What probably happens is that they get eaten. Don't worry, they only eat the bullies, the bad
kind; especially the fat cruel ones. I overheard them talking once, that they tasted very sweet
but they only eat them on Halloween. So, No worries, Father is the only one who eats humans
every day.

Back when I didn't understand why, I asked my Father once, why he ate humans. He warmly
replied To keep my skin warm child, so I could hug you and your brother tight. Then he held
our cheeks and voila! It did make him warm. Father eats everyone. Not just the cruel ones. Its
family tradition you have to understand.

Dont worry we have limitations. Not too much as Aunt Philomena had said, else the town
people would Hunt us down.

"Where are the twins? I would like to say goodnight to them". Grandma asked Grandpa while
they are ascending the stairs. "They are upstairs, we will say goodnight to them there". Grandpa
held grandma's arm as they walked, A sign of love and a true gentleman.

Soon as Grandma and Grandpa went to bed, Mum wanted to do something special and was
about to tell us.

"Well, what do you think kids?". She put both her hands on her teeny tiny waist.

Its a great house mum But the doorbell rung.

Who could it be? at this hour of the night?. Mother looked outside curious.

A meal? father said-asked while father looked at all of us.

Lupus and I snickered and laughed. Mom smiled as well.

Aunt Philomena looked at us funny. She squinted her eyes and scanned us for a few seconds.

We stopped laughing.

Sullivan fetch the door please.

A human rosy-cheeked from the cold, blonde hair and average looking, was completely
drenched from the rain, was waiting at the door.

"H-hello Mons.." She had a long pause of horror when she saw Sullivan, she blinked to get
herself together, then continued, "Monsieur" unsure of what to say, "I am here for the job
christening. I mean listing. Job listing" She stammered out of sheer shock.
Sullivan was confused for a few seconds, he was expressionless but was a little pained at how
rude the woman is, so he moved his head from side to side as a sign of disapproval but
subsequently continued to lead the stranger to the living room.

Madame this woman claims she is here for the job listing? Sullivan inquired.

"I don't remember a job listing, did you post a job offer, dear?". Mother asked Father.

Father was busy with writing something. "I don't know? I did not.?"

How about you Philomena? Father inquired.

Aunt Philomena was Curious and questioned the stranger nicely, "What job are you here for
deary?".

For a maid service Madame, The stranger responded.

Well you know, we do need some help with the house chores. Aunt Philomena hilariously
asking for approval from everyone.

Well, we have Sullivan for that, Mother stated.

I mean someone who actually can do chores and cook and clean. Aunt Philomena insisted.

We don't need that we eat hu...

"HYUMUBERGERS!" Aunt Philomena swiftly responded. She was bug-eyed while quickly
stopping father before he could finish his sentence.

I Mean hamburgers. We eat out a lot. Aunt Philomena explained with relief.

Lupus and I smirked, giggled and looked at each other.

Ah, I see, I'm a, very good at Cooking, cleaning washing clothes. The stranger pleadingly
tried to convince us that she was worth the money.

We don't need that we have Ma... Mother carelessly replied, but before she can finish Aunt
Philomena talked over her as well.

Majorly overpriced washing machine!.

"Yes, we have a big one!"

The girl was suddenly puzzled.

Aunt Philomena seeing a chance of a normal house and less magic, since there is an actual
human around, explained why there is a need for a help. Eventually, Mother and Father agreed.

"Okay since all that is done with".

Mother beckoned to Sullivan, "Sullivan?, bring this poor girl in the Maids quarter and provide
her a change of clothes. Please. She's very bright." meaning Mother was in horror of how white
her clothes were And how pink and supple her skin was.

"Yes, Madame," Sullivan answered.

As soon as she was gone. Aunt Philomena asked Please don't eat her. Please. Please! Please!
don't eat her.

Don't worry Philomena, we shan't eat the people living in this house.

Mother befuddled and irritated asked, "Why all of a sudden fancy this human Philomena?"

They looked at each other and then there was a pause. Mothers eyes squint at Aunt Philomena
then suddenly her eyes widened as she gasped. "Is it because you like her?" Mother excitedly
and suspiciously asked.

What?! Aunt Philomena confused then suddenly knew where this was going.

Is it because you're gay. Philomena. Are you?. Then she held Philomena's hand and had a
dramatic look on her face. Because if you are, you can always tell your sister.

No. Heavens No! Aunt Philomena defended Not that there is anything wrong with that. But
No. Aunt Philomena's brow furrowed as she was vexed.

Oh. Mother uttered, Unsatisfied as she sneered at Aunt Philomena.

"Great, we can't do anything normal now". I grumbled.

I rolled my eyes and shook my head from side to side as a sign of disapproval and walked out
to go to my room. I'll be in my room.
Good night children. Mother and father said.

Lupus also walked to his bedroom.

Father used to sleep in the morning since he cannot go out during daylight, but ever since the
invention of sunblock and a little dust of Mothers magic, he was finally able to go out late
afternoon when the sun is not too bright and when the clouds have covered the sky.

So he hunts for a few hours at night and goes to bed with Mother after, then wakes in the late
afternoon, but he got really sneaky in the previous houses and always chose cloudy areas, I
imagined him in Alaska, He would probably be a King there. Now that you think about it, we
might have the same kind there. Hmm. What a strange thought.

Scene 4

Morning came.

The light from My lancet windows in the attic shone on my face. I forgot to close the curtains
last night.

My bedroom was huge. It had matte black walls and father had the book cases installed on the
wall. At the top, there was an arch and ornate carvings of cherubs and demons, witches,
wizards, vampires and mermaids and some ethereal creatures I don't know about. The book
shelves had a wine colored background, which tons of my books and potions covered. It was in
front of my bed. There were glass like scones as well as wrought iron lamps and a black
chandelier to light the room at night. There was a huge white door connecting to my bathroom.
A black table and a chair for writing, a long black sofa and a glass side table with candles, a
potion and an Athame. Black and white curtains with Victorian Gothic Style patterns to add
some color.

My bed was simple. It has a white bed sheet with black blankets, and my old pillows that had a
white Betelgeuse and Edward Scissorhands pattern which I love so much, and a matte black
wooden foundation to support it. There was a closet on the right and a black chest at the foot of
my bed. On the left, there were two lancet windows which explains my high ceiling and in the
middle of the wall, there was one huge window with black cushions and pillows. It was
covered in elegant black silk curtains. It was nice. It'll probably grow on me but I still hold
something dear for my old room. I miss it.
Anyways before I trail off. The Doorbell Rang. And three very loud knocks from our Vintage
Gothic Devil head Door knocker. It was loud. It was a demon holding the knocker on its
mouth. By the way, our door was arched and was similar to a fairy door, or a pirates door it's
made of wood and well wha' daya' know?, It's black. Well, gray-black to be exact. It was Huge
and scary. Which is why it's suspicious if there are neighbors.

Great... I muttered to my self and then opened the door of my bedroom and I bellowed nosy
neighbors!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The two nosy neighbors overheard while looking at the door scope and looked at each other
funny and mumbled, "how rude?"

Mother was woken from her Beauty rest. What! What? What is happening?! She sat up on
the bed, still wearing her Eye mask, and was graveled beyond belief.

Then Sullivan Opened the door.

The Neighbors had their big plastic smiles on but was bewildered as soon as they saw Sullivan.
Their eyes grew wide and their faces and smiles became distorted, but they tried very hard to
hide the fear. Rude.

How may I help you?. Sullivan asked.

Narrator: Earlier these rotten people were spying through their telescope on the newly moved
in family.

Matilda: By the way, the narrator and I will try to tell this story together because it's way too
long for me. Right narrator?

Narrator: Yes, Miss.

"Hmm. They look weird." The Rotten Human Old Housewife vented. Her name was Michelle.

Ew. They look dead. A man named Cornell with brown hair ripped.

"Ah yes we, would like to reach out our welcome to the new neighbors." They reached out to
give a basket of Cinnabon's with their fake smiles plastered across their faces.
Nyes. I can see. The masters will receive your kindly greetings. For now, accept our deepest
gratitude. Sullivan nodded his head at them as if to bid goodbye, "Sir. Madame." Then Shut
the door at their faces.

I laughed while spying through the lancet window. They were not pleased. They looked at each
other and grumbled words out of their indignation, as they left the house with disgust.
Whatever, I'm sure they'll be back.

Come afternoon I looked at the mirror beside my closet, It was in front of my table and didn't
feel like wearing my pigtail hair. I change hair a lot because it was easy for us. But I had a
default hair, It was like my mother, It was long black and curly on the ends and had a red
ribbon on the top, I use it for formal events, but today I felt like wearing my hair down, straight
and with silver white ends. All I had to do was light a candle, pick up that blue bottle of potion
that smelled like cherry blossoms by the way, put a little in my hand, put a cut out of what I
want my hair or eyes to look like, like a picture from a magazine, put a little offering like a fruit
or a flower then put my hands over the candle, look in the mirror and then say a prayer/a chant/
a spell as you humans say.

I don't always have to do that all the time. Potions and Rituals are done only for the first spell
of any spell, but once you have done the first spell, It leaves a magical imprint or DNA in your
body. Imagine the words floating in light and sinking beneath your skin, then you can call to
the spell anytime you want. But of course, If you did the rituals and you had potions, the spell
will be more exact, It will last longer. You can also use a wand or a stick to call out a spell.

Some people like my mother or any elder beings have collected enough magic in their body
that it surrounds them, that spells don't need words, sometimes you just need think, wave your
hands and call it in your mind, but again if you do the rituals, the powers that be would
understand better. It's like talking to a friend, If you want something, you have to tell your
friend or sometimes even act it out so that he or she would understand, and if you know each
other well enough or for a long time, you need look and you guys already understand.
Understand?.

You can even call demons, angels, or other worldly beings for a certain spell, but that's for
Elder beings. There's Dark and white magic. Usually, there's a school that teaches that. But for
us, It was handed down to us, were a bit trouble you see. Deep inside I want to go to that school
It be fun to make wizard friends, I always Imagine it, but I just end up meeting assholes, plus I
just don't have the personality, I'm not exactly a conversation starter.
*insert song here for ex. Marilyn Manson Nobodies.*

Anyways, I like doing the spells and rituals it's more fun. Plus it makes me remember.
"Atua me fefine.
Whakarongo ki taku inoi.
a kia rite ki runga ake na raro .
huringa o kanohi .
huringa o te makawe .
i roto i tau i pai ai .
pera kia waiho .
pera kia waiho .

Touching my eyes and brushing through my hair.

And voila! New hair.

I came down and everyone was having pretend brunch in the Dining room. I saw "what was
your name again?" I asked her.

Nancy, little miss. You go on and have brunch with your family, I cooked delicious food. You
look different?

I colored my hair last night. I smiled.

Then I saw everyone sitting in the dining room. Father was reading the newspaper while
Mother was fidgeting with her makeup. Mother can eat Humans and can still eat Human Food
but she is on a diet, as far as I know, she is still partly human. My Grandpas and Grandmas are
not human at all. They used to be. They pretended to be. They had their time, and now they just
want to be grandparents. They only eat normal food now. Once you stop eating humans the
aging process begins, afterwards, eventually death will come, that's what Mother said. You
don't have to eat them all the time. Once a year would be fine.
There would also be other alternatives, like spells. But Blood is powerful; It binds us, Fills us,
and there is a certain Magic in it because it is where life lies, It is the offering that the Gods
accept.

Father is definitely not human anymore. He definitely doesn't drink blood once a year, But
Mother did use a spell to contain him a bit, you know, to lessen the thirst. Aunt Philomena was
eating what seems to be a steak and enjoyed it thoroughly. She is the most human in all of us.
A little. Well not really, she just pretends to be. I haven't seen her do something crazy.

I'm saying this so you will understand why Lupus and I can still eat cereal, we are still partly
human. Lupus was eating cereal while Grandpa and Grandma were eating Grandmas biscuits
and milk.

Sullivan was the only one who seemed to like the food. We ask him to sit with us since it's
boring if it is just us. There are plenty of seats on the table. I sat down, waited for compliments
but it never happened. I looked at Nancy. "Why don't you sit down Nancy? Eat with us?" I
smirked and everyone looked at me like I was insane, obviously, They were all waiting for her
to leave.

"Uh, I couldn't possibly miss."

Wow, what year is this? Besides, Why not? Sullivan is sitting with us. Sullivan was eating a
mouthful, eating what was fresh meat concealed in leafy greens. Then everyone looked at
Sullivan.

Should I get Up miss? Sullivan asked me.

No. Your family idiot! I retorted, my eyes widened and I wanted to burst out of laughter
because Sullivan's face was filled with blood like gravy then I looked at Nancy Sit down
Nancy.

Nancy looked at everyone. Waiting.

Father was sitting in the master's chair of the dining table while mother was sitting next to him,
and next to Caedmon and Waldron in their baby chairs. Aunt Philomena sat right across
mother.

"Sit!" I beckoned. Then she sat down with this awkward look on her face. Next to Aunt
Philomena.
There you go. I smiled deviously.

Lupus, pass me the cereal.

Here you go. Lupus cleverly placed some of the cereal in the spoon, bent it with his fore
finger and threw it at me like a catapult.

Fortunately, I managed to stop the time for a few seconds and placed it down my bowl like it
fell there. Time ran again.

Thank you so much!. I glowered at him menacingly, gritted my teeth and my eyes turned
pitch black even the white was gone. He did the same thing and we did this for a few seconds.

"Children!" Aunt Philomena said. "We mustn't fight at the dinner table." Good thing Nancy
wasn't looking, she was preoccupied with the food and just looking at it.

I noticed she was not eating though. "Go eat Nancy."

And she started eating but for some reason, she tried to eat in small portions and gave this
horribly fake smile. As the food fell right across her mouth. As I was used to weird, I didn't
give much fuss about it and thought she was just also... weird.

Sullivan? asked father.

"Yes, Sir?" Sullivan replied.

What was that Infernal banging earlier?

"It was. How would you say? Nosy Neighbors, Sir." Sullivan reiterated.

"Ah, I see". Father replied while he was reading the newspaper.

They provided a basket of cookies for us Sir and I informed them you shall be

receiving said gifts and expressed our deepest gratitude.

"Really?" Aunt Philomena happily inquired "where are those gifts, Sullivan."

"It's in the trash bin." Mother sarcastically expressed, making fun of Aunt Philomena.
"Deidra Morgana Strange.!" Aunt Philomena huffed with her teeth together, she started to fake
smile and tilted her head towards Nancy, As if to show mother that someone else was in the
Dining table.

"Oh hush now. Nancy doesn't care. She won't tell on us. Right, Nancy?"

Of course Madame. I wouldn't tell a soul.

See. Mothers hands opened her palm and pointed to Nancy and Aunt Philomena. To prove
her point.

Trust No One.

I think that's unfair Deidra?

Morgana, call me Morgana. Philomena how many times must I tell you Deidra is so
depressing.

Those nice people probably just wanted to share those nice cookies with us and you shut them
out.

They looked at each other for a long time, and then Mother looked at father, and Father Just
smiled at mother, Avoiding their conversation.

"Fine. Sullivan bring them some basket of I don't know, something in the kitchen." Mother
lamented.

I don't think that's enough. Sullivan if you may excuse me, was very rude to them at your
command. We should do something more".

"Why not hold a house warming party Madame?" Nancy suggested with her attitude changing
from awkward to overjoyed.

Aunt Philomena's eyes widened and she was in high spirits. Why that's a great idea!. Aunt
Philomena definitely is in love with humans.

"Fine". Mother said. "Let's prepare for a dinner for said guests". while Mother held smiled
sarcastically at Aunt Philomena.

"You should all eat my cookies for dessert," Grandma expressed.

"Okay Grandma," said Lupus.

So we did. If there is one thing that you would do, It's to follow grandmas advice or orders. It
has saved us multiple times.

"It's very nice Mother." Father expressed to Grandma.

Thank you. Grandma Smiled.

Change of Scene I will now hand you to the narrator. Coz' I've got things to do, you know and
places to be. I'll check back on you from time to time. Okay, go ahead Narrator.

"Thanks, Miss." Meanwhile in the neighbors House.

Cornell was spying at the new neighbors using his telescope. "What a bunch of awful,
repugnant looking creatures.?"

"Ugh. I agree they look so weird and unnatural." she was also peaking behind the window
blinds.

The man moved towards his chair and sat down, their house was average looking with an
average sized red chair in front of the fire place, just a few steps opposite the window.

"Eh. well, nothing new here Mystik Kyster. There is always something".

The woman slightly agreed and said "Still, we need to keep eye on them, looks like a trouble
some bunch.

Scene 4

*insert rock song intro here for ex. intro the beautiful people - Marilyn Manson*

Meanwhile at the Manor. Evening time.

Morgana, Philomena, Grandma, and Nancy were at the living room. Morgana was standing
next to the window and looking out, Philomena was sitting down on the sofa and Grandma was
sitting on the red chair occasionally looking at the fire place while knitting.

"We should prepare for the party now. Morgana was about to wave her hand when Philomena
grabbed her hand and stopped her.

"Nancy," Philomena said, "best to cook something for the guest?".

Nancy's eyes widened with Joy. "With Pleasure!" Nancy fidgeted with her dress and ran off
oddly in the kitchen while everyone looked at her leave the room, but before she reached the
kitchen door she stopped. "But won't the food spoil ma'am? It's way too early if were to have a
party tomorrow.?"

"Oh, you're absolutely right!. why don't you go rest early, so you can wake up and prepare
early tomorrow morning?."

Nancy's eyes glistened, "Your right Madame, your absolutely right." She excitedly replied, as if
she was going to drool of excitement. She hurriedly went upstairs and the family heard her
close her room shut. Everyone looked at each other because of how weird that was, but also
relieved that she left.

"I shall be making my cookies. Grandma stated.

"That's very well mother. Thank you so much for your care." and with that Grandma went off
to her bedroom.

Morgana waved her hand and time seemed to stop.

Morgana whispered "Binecuvnteaz-ne cu mncare

*Insert spooky song here for example. Tchaikovsky Dance of the sugarplum fairy.*

Suddenly there was a commotion in the kitchen. The pots and the pans were moving on its
own. The ingredients started walking to the pot and the pan and started cooking. The chicken
laid on the plate and the bottle of salt and the pepper was dancing in the air to give it flavor, the
butter went on top and it flew inside the oven.

The flour mixed with the egg and the milk in a bowl, It then floated to pour itself into a pan to
continuously cook mountains of pancakes and when it was finished blueberries and
strawberries sat on the pancakes and the syrup floated and poured itself over the pancakes.
Watermelon and strawberries went inside the blender, while milk and sugar joined them. It
covered itself and proceeded to make shakes. There was food flying everywhere, It was like
they were having a congregation about a single purpose, which was, making a banquet. Before
you know it, there were cupcakes, pancakes a chocolate fountain and sushi come morning.

The decorations where the best part, the paper, scissors, and tapes were having a meeting and
they discussed what the theme will be and once they were done they all started moving together
to make wonderful hanging decorations they wrapped themselves in the lights on the wall and
even on the table.
The candles started to walk in the candelabra in the middle of the dining table, the food also
started to line up. Fireflies also started to line up on the ceiling forming tiny light like stars after
they were done, Millions of spiders went to our living room to knit white sheer curtains that
were finished in just a few minutes. It hung on the ceiling and the walls.

The fireflies became little tiny lights, as their light passed through the curtains. The
decorations were elegant. When everything was done the spiders left and the candles lit up. the
sky turned purple and the sun started to rise. Morgana had woken up early to check if
everything was in its place.

"Dining room check, juices, food, black balloons, yes everything is here. hah, I'm good!"

By this time Nancy went out of her room excitedly to start making preparations but her jaw
dropped when she saw the decorations in the hall.

Morgana liked to play around. poor soul. She decided to pick on Nancy.

"Nancy! you woke very late!. look I have everything done already?"

"I'm so sorry Madame? But how..." before Nancy can finish since Morgana didn't want any
interrogation, she just told her some of them was delivered.

I'm just kidding Nancy, some of them were just delivered.

"But you know what, I can use a little bit of soup and sauce can you do that please?"

Nancy was again ecstatic, Yes Madam.

Grandma was on her way down to the stairs with a smile and said: "Look I am also done with
my cookies?"

"Ah, Mother, May the Gods bless you. See Nancy, even mother is already done. Go now, and
make haste!" Mother humorously chimed.

"Yes, madame!" Nancy worriedly replied.

Morgana looked at everything and whispered "Tibi gratias ago deorum."

Matilda: Spells have different languages. After all, magic comes from everywhere. Did I
mention Mother is Half Japanese. Yes, Mother has Asian descent which means Grandma is
Japanese and Grandpa is definitely American. That spell wasn't Japanese but the food is. Ooh,
that sushi looks good! I'll leave you to the Narrator. Coz' I am gonna eat.

*insert rap song here, for example, Bling Bling Jungle pussy*

Nancy crazily stirs the pot and pours a bottle of something white excitedly at the soup. She was
bug-eyed and was biting her lips feeling elated. And then she put the vial inside her pocket but
out of excitement, instead of getting inside the pocket it fell on the floor.

It rolled on the floor, stopping in front of two big feet And gray hands picked it up. Sullivan
looked at it for a few seconds, and her eyes widened in horror, " Sullivan, walked towards her ,
her heart started to beat fast, then he walked past her, then her heart was beating faster and
faster, then Sullivan raised his arms and placed the vial on the shelf.

She looked at him mortified. Then Sullivan said, " Best place the seasonings on the shelves so
it will not fall."

Then she was galvanized, the door that opened and closed made a startling sound. The twins
entered the kitchen, they were running around after each other, throwing things that they can
find at each other.

Then she smiled of relief.

Are you all right Miss? Caedmon asked.

of course, of course. Nancy replied.

Sullivan now had a condescending look. "Best put the soup now outside, before it gets cold."

Oh yah, yes, I will. She transferred some of the soup in a smaller pot while looking at the vial
on the shelf, waiting for Sullivan to leave, but Sullivan just looked at her, studying her, so she
had no choice but to bring the soup outside.I'm going to bring the soup out now.

Sullivan gave a cheesy smile at her, it was a very scary smile. So she smiled back
incredulously. Then shaking her head to forget what she saw.

Nancy emerged from the kitchen holding a pot of soup while announcing "Soup is Do...Done."
At first, Nancy was super excited to show off her soup but got astounded, when she saw all the
food in the Dining room. It seemed like it doubled while she was cooking. She was still a bit
skeptical that it all happened in one night.

Oh! Hey, Just in time, I'm sure the guest will love your soup." Aunt Philomena cheered.

Everyone looked at each other including Matilda and Lupus who was already busy eating some
of the meals.

"Well, best be making some dessert Nancy?." Morgana Said.

"Of course Madame." Nancy was about to go back to leave the room when she asked. "It all
happened so quickly. How about all these decorations?".

Morgana's eyes widened then flickered for a few seconds, which was a sign that she was
growing impatient, so she looked back at Nancy and smiled smugly.

Morgana raised her hand just across from Nancy's face and started Hypnotizing her. Morgana's
hand opened and closed like she was magnetizing Nancy, while she said "Dormii i
ascultai..."

Philomena was out to stop her but Morgana quickly hypnotized Philomena and made her sleep
"Somno." Morgana commanded. Philomena was standing and went to sleep and subsequently
Morgana averted her attention back to Nancy.

"When you awake, You will not be asking any more silly questions, You will not be noticing
anything extraordinary and you will go on with your day as if everything is normal, Until such
a time that I release you from this spell. Do you understand Nancy?".

Nancy Groggily replied "Yuu uu HHS." Everyone snickered coz' Nancy looked silly when her
right eye was half closed.

"Very Good. Morgana ordered.

Both of you.

"Expergisci." Morgana ended the spell. Morgana and Philomena looked at each other and
Philomena opened her mouth with disbelief and crossed both her hands over her chest to show
How enraged she was, She sneered at Morgana as she left the room while Nancy followed.
"Now. Time to deliver those invitations." Morgana was looking at Matilda and smiling. The
twins joined Lupus and Matilda to eat, Matilda was gobbling up all the Sushi and Lupus was
eating the meat and the twins started to devour the pancakes, but even though they ate a lot of
food, all the food that they have been eating are magically reappearing.

"Oh Mum this is so good, You did a good job!" Lupus said.

while the twins Hauntingly said "Good job mum!"

Matilda was gobbling sushi when she saw her mother smiling at her.

"Oh no!" Matilda's eyes widened and was violently refusing because she knew she was about to
be given a task.

"No, No, No, No! Noh No Nooooooooooooooo!".

Morgana continued to smile. "Sullivan!".

"Yes, Madame?" Sullivan suddenly appeared.

"Help Matilda deliver the invitation. Make sure she finishes all, of it.

"Why cant you just do it or Lupus, or Sullivan?" Matilda complained.

"What? Noh!. I'm a werewolf I'll probably end up eating the invitation." Lupus rebuffed.

Matilda was looking at everyone, Outraged.

"There are far too many houses, You know how Sullivan is, let's not forget the fact that if
someone sees him they will die of fear. Better he follows you in the shadow."

Hmm Sullivan reacted.

"No offense Sullivan." Morgana reckoned.

Meh. Sullivan shrugged his shoulder

It may end up in the wrong place. Flying and Teleporting things to places you haven't seen
before, takes up a lot of time and is unreliable, those invitations might end up in the wrong
place because of how vague it is. Plus you have wings you can do it faster than any of us, You
can't expect me or your father to fly, well, we're your parents, you're supposed to do things for
us, so do it. Now!, while the sky is purple!
Can't you just email everyone? Or send a text message or I don't know. Matilda Countered.

"First I don't know their emails, second it is magically possible but nobody checks their emails
and it will be suspicious if I knew all our neighbor's phone numbers, next thing you know it
will escalate to a goddamn witch-hunt! Now move your ass!"

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooh! Matilda revolted.

Scene 5

Footsteps on the stairs, she opened the latch and saw the dark night sky she walked towards the
edge and stood there. There were two gargoyles guarding the roof.

Mother!

start singing...

Morgana opened the big arched window and the wind blew in the silk curtains, the twins
covered their faces from the wind. Sullivan was carrying the invitation in front of the porch
while Lupus went out and stared at the window.

Morgana Blew something glittering from her hand like small orbs of light. and it started
dancing in the wind as she sang.

Morgana has a siren's voice it was a gift or rather an exchange for something.
But that is for another story.

The hills are silent...

sleep my loves...
Lullaby and slumber tight...
Say goodnight...
For no one will wake you...
tonight.

Lullaby...
Say goodnight...
Sleep tight...
Awake tomorrow...
At sunrise...
Lalala Lalala Lalala Lalala"

A gust of wind carrying dots of glowing glitters spread around town entering houses without
permission. Passing through their nose, sticking to their eyes and invading their skin.
The glitters were not seen and were not visible to human eyes. Everyone fell asleep, while they
were in bed, while they were doing their daily chores while watching TV and while they were
eating, some of them slammed their heads on their dishes and even slept on their food.

*insert rock song here, for example, Marilyn Manson sweet dreams*

And with that, Two pairs of black wings spread. It was majestic and dark. It did not magically
appear, it appeared slowly like it was always there, hidden behind the dark ink under her skin.
Hiding behind her shirt, she jumped in free fall and then spread her wings again to fly really,
really high, flying in circles, until she soared above the clouds. She hovered for a few seconds
and marveled at the light of the moon and the stars at the night sky. She closed her eyes and
savored the moonlight as it touched her skin. Slowly she opened her eyes and she swam
through the air, moved upwards the moon and then dived at the clouds below towards the
houses. The wind rushing through her face, she was smiling.

Lupus smirked as he saw her move throughout the sky, he wanted to join in the fun and
transformed. He started breathing heavily and then knelt, his teeny hands started cracking as
the flesh of his hands broke to make way for the enormous wolf hands, hair started to envelop
his body and his backbone cracked to form a bigger cage, It ripped his flesh and he became a
mixture of dark skin and hair, his ears became pointy and his nose became more pronounced as
he started to resemble the face of a wolf, with gray hair on the side of his head, his dark eyes
became a luminance of light blue. He growled then the muscles on his body hypertrophied, he
ferociously ripped the remaining skin and It showed the wolf's Monstrous Body, Strong and
unassailable. He howled at the moon then ran fast... climbing houses, jumping on the roofs,
then running on the street.
Once he had his fun, The big black wolf slowly walked on the streets to check if everyone in
their houses was asleep. He paused at one house for a few seconds and snarled but he heard
Sullivan saying, "Hmm?" a perplexed Sullivan riding his red scooter was a little bit behind and
was silently making his rounds.

Lupus interest changed to making fun of Sullivan, so he tilted his head to the side like a puppy
then gnarled his face and snarled at Sullivan. Sullivan muddled, uttered "Master?"...

The wolf grinned and then bolted as fast as he could towards Sullivan, and Sullivan's eyes
widened as Lupus was big and heavy, he thought Lupus was going to crash to his newly
polished scooter, so he closed his eyes, hugged his scooter and prepared for the worst, but
Lupus ran past him, he was thrown off a bit, moving in circles and was disoriented for a few
seconds because of Lupus's Impact but he opened one of his eyes to check if he was okay or the
scooter, and thankfully both him and the scooter were both in one piece, so he cried Thank
goodness and hugged his scooter. but his face contorted, as he was worried, when he realized
he was supposed to guard Matilda and seemed to have lost her and now he had to find Lupus as
well. Master?!

Master?! Don't get too far?! He exclaimed, But it was too late since he could not find Lupus.
Sullivan just rolled his eyes and continued to check if the invitations were sent and he made
sure everything was appropriately placed. Pulling out a note from his shirt and checking a list.

She flew past each house; "Invitations, Invitations for everyone!" she was irked while she
threw the invitations carelessly, and it fell on the porches and in the yard and the garden, and
her mother was exasperated for a few seconds, seeing what was happening from afar, but with
a flick of a finger it magically went inside their doors. If you are wondering why she had not
done this in the first place, It's because It had to be in the exact place, like what Morgana
explained earlier, they would have to have a visual, and knowledge about a certain place,
before you can teleport there or teleport things there, but it also depends on the situation and
she was also teaching Matilda a lesson about hard work or some shit.

And with her task done Matilda flew home, while Lupus climbed at their house and howled
some more, then came Sullivan who was a little bit slower, He checked everything first,
silently, and went home. He also stopped at another house, he looked at the doorway for a few
seconds and was puzzled, but he heard His Master call him already.

Sullivan!. They were still a few blocks far from each other but, they can hear each other.

Coming Sir!
Scene 6

The Party.

Earlier. Someone was looking out the window, when Matilda passed by and another one in
another house picked up the envelope.

People started arriving at the party, Some of them arrived for the food, some of them arrived
just to snoop, some of them are simply there because they are polite, some of them were forced
by their families and some of them went there for the simple reason of nit picking only to find
out that they, cannot. Some were simply innocently curious about what was inside the weird
looking manor.

"My, what a big house." looking at the ceiling and amazed by the size of the hall, the woman
said to herself. She was a normal average looking woman with brown hair. Philomena was
waiting at the door and welcoming the strangers. "Thank you all for coming. Please come in."
Philomena points at the directions of the living room which was just across the Dining room.

Nancy was also waiting for their bags and was making an awkward bow, every time people
would come in and she would give the directions to the Dining room.

This woman came with a man, with ashy blonde hair and mustache with an annoying face
including what appears to be seventies fashion. A brown parka, checkered polo shirt, and
brown pants. He was taking off his parka when he looked at his right and was startled to see
who was taking it. "Geezus!" he exclaimed, at the time he saw Sullivan. But Sullivan had zero
fucks to give and just motioned for his coat,

They were the weird couple that visited earlier. Philomena apologized to the couple.

"Our servant Sullivan was not properly briefed and was feeling a little bit ill. I apologize
Madam, Sullivan said to the couples, then proceeded to hang their coats. The two couple
proudly accepted the apology and schooled Philomena about it.

One of the families wore an ensemble of mostly pink. Almost all of them had platinum blonde
hair, the Mom looked like a Sexy Avon lady, Her skin was glowing, She had two daughters,
One was wearing a tight fitting dress, an adolescent with platinum blonde hair with curls at the
end and was busy texting on her smart phone and did not mind what was going on, she fake
smiled for a few seconds to look at Philomena and continued with what she was doing. Her
younger sister maybe aged about 5, had a bun and was wearing a light tight pink shirt and a
pink tutu skirt, with light pink stockings. The father was wearing a very pale pink formal polo
shirt folded up to his elbows and white pants and white Gucci shoes. They were the
Drummonds. "Geesh," Matilda thought to herself, "I thought we were weird."
The children were observing the guest, They were on the interior balcony at the second floor,
the twins were looking at the gap of the wooden railings on the second floor. Lupus was first
leaning his hand on the railing then got bored and then sat back on a black sofa, Matilda was
leaning her hands on the railings observing her new neighbors.

"Will we eat them, Matilda?. Waldron asked while Caedmon giggled, "shh" Matilda sat down
with them and motioned them to be quiet. "No, Silly, You'll get a big belly if you eat all of
them." Matilda showed a broad dark scary smile at them and they giggled back.

The next three families that came were average looking, there were hippie families, skater
families, and families that looked like they just came out from a rock concert.

The next family was wearing all Green, they were wearing modern clothes. Matilda began to
think if there was a dress code and had a confused look on her face. This time the Mom had a
long blonde hair, She was wearing a Forest Green dress with gold accents, expensive emerald
earrings, and gold jewelry. The father had a long straight blonde hair, he was wearing a viridian
green suit jacket, vest, a white formal polo shirt inside, dark moss pants and formal black
shoes. He was very well dressed and handsome they were with a teenage boy with long blonde
hair who was wearing a light green formal polo shirt, and an elder sister, an adolescent, She
had straight brown hair and a sheer flowy green dress and a younger daughter aged six of five
as well or maybe four she had a tiny face and a tiny body, with curly blonde hair wearing a nice
light green dress with buttons. For some reason, they had pointy ears. They were the Maurelles.

The next family was different as well, They mostly wore black. Matilda began to think that
they will fit right in this community. Which was really weird since she had never had a thought
like this before. The father had silver white hair, which reached up to his lower back, he was
wearing a nice suit, his eyes was gray and haunting, he carried a cane with a gold lion at the
top. The Mother was wearing a nice black cocktail dress, the dress had pleats and ends just
below her knee, she was very beautiful, she had white silver hair which was styled in a low
braid bun, she had nice gold jewelry and gold rings, one of which had a lion in it as well.
Maybe it was a family crest Matilda told herself, and there was a Teenage boy, with a twin
sister. Maybe they were aged around sixteen. The boy had long white silver hair like his father
and was also wearing a nice black suit jacket and a white shirt inside and black shorts that ends
just below the knees. The girl was a bit different she had short pastel pink hair with a touch of
purple she was wearing a black shirt, with some print on it, she had a leather black jacket, a
choker and some washed out gray denim shorts and black army boots. The girl saw Matilda and
the twins, And she smiled. They were the Leon's.

Matilda wanted to smile but she awkwardly smiled since she didn't know how to properly
smile, when the boy saw her sister, the boy proceeded to look as well, he half smiled and
proceeded to tell her sister to follow their parents.
After wards there were just normal people who came, business men and women to be exact.
Some average nice looking people, People from different race.

Everyone proceeded to the living room and The dining room, Then Nancy proceeded to close
the doors and mischievously smiled.

"What's up with Nancy? She feels hmmm, a little evil, don't you think? Matilda asked Lupus.

"Please, were weird. C'mon this is boring as fuck."

"Lupus watch your language the twins are around, plus aren't you like eight? Don't be a little
b. the twins proceeded to say "fuck" Caedmon said then Waldron "fuck" then they laughed.

"look what you did," Matilda said in disbelief.

clean your potty mouth.! Matilda told the twins.

"Please, you cuss all the time, clean your potty mouth!" Then lupus proceeded to grab
something from his butt and covered Matilda's face with his hands with what seemed to be a
foul smell.

Matilda disgusted and tried to clean her face with her hands, got angry real fast "Oh my god!
Lupus your dead!" Lupus ran on the wall and crawled at the ceiling while laughing completely
pleased with himself.

"Come back here Lupus! Matilda walked on the walls and ran after Lupus, the twins began to
crawl on the walls and the ceiling as well.

"Neh! Neh Neh Neh! You can't catch me!" before he could finish the sentence, Matilda leaped
at him and slammed on the wall. Lupus evaded her quickly and quickly bellowed "whoops!
Too slow!"

Though the people in the Dining room were drowned with the sound of dialogues and
conversations, and was busy eating, some of them there, seem to have heard some muffled
noises.

"Did you hear that? one fat man alleged, talking to Philomena.

"Uh, No. Maybe just some food cooking, let me just check. Then proceeded to carefully come
out of the dining room. As soon as she got out, she looked at the ceiling and saw what was
happening, her jaw dropped because Matilda was choking Lupus upside down, so she
proceeded to whisper angrily "Matilda!, get down!"
She got down from the ceiling and there was an impact on the floor.

You Guys are dead! Philomena muttered angrily.

Scene 7

Now we see a shrimp being engulfed by the mouth, a sushi being picked up by a chopstick, a
pancake with blue berries being cut in the middle then carefully being stabbed with a fork, then
it makes its way to reach its destination, slowly being chewed, and a hot steaming soup, being
slurped. Hot steam was coming out of the spoon and it burned a woman's mouth, "Ow!
Gadammit!" It was Michelle, people fell silent and stared at her.

She felt vexed, "Well, None of your gadamn bidness! Go on... Eat!" Then The noise of the
crowd once again emanated the room, There were People Laughing, drinking wine. Then the
twins went inside to grab a few of grandmas cookies, Caedmon putting it in his shirt, and
Waldron ravenously eating it. Then when they got enough, they went outside once again.
quickly the stars appear in the window. A warm plump hand shaking what seems to be a cold
white grayish hand with slightly dark stained fingernails.

We soon zoom out to the Mayor welcoming Mr. Strange, "Mayor John Bankes, In behalf of the
town I would like to welcome you."

"Thank you, Mr. Mayor"

"Don't worry I will be sure to support any town agenda." Mr. Strange uttered.

"Ah and don't forget the next town election, I'll be hoping for your support." The Mayor grins
mischievously.

Mr. Strange removed the tobacco from his mouth and blew the smoke upwards across the
room. "Of course Mayor. Please take this as a token of our gratitude for your presence in the
Strange household".

Mr. Strange handed what seemed to be a basket of wine, cigars and a jar of cookies, handed to
him by Philomena.
These are some of the finest wines, and cigars anyone can buy, and of course, My mother
makes the best cookies."

"My God!, Chateau Margaux 1787, and Mayan Sicars?!. Where did you get these?"

The Mayor asked inquisitively, looking at the wine "I've been trying to get a hand of these for
so long".

"Ah, I have connections Mr. Mayor." They both smirked.

"Ah, I hope we can use those connections later". the Mayor happily inquired.

"Of course Mr. Mayor, anything to help the town."

"That's good..." The Mayor replied.

The Mayor was about to continue but his Minion whispered something in his ear.
"Well Mr. Strange it's been nice meeting you, but I fear I must go, I have a meeting to attend
to."

"Ah, I understand Mr. Mayor." They smiled and shook hands.

Mrs. Strange went around with Philomena meeting the new families I hope you are having a
good time? She approached the woman in wearing a green dress, and she received a warm
smile.

I am Elga Maurelle, Nice Meeting you Missus Strange.

What a lovely family. Mrs. Strange replied.

Ah yes, This is My husband Alfrigg Maurelle. Alfrigg gave a warm smile as well. Nice to
meet you Mrs strange then continued to reach out a handshake.
The mother motioned to the children who were sitting and eating at the time in the tables
Come children...This is Mrs. Strange.

Nice meeting you Mrs Strange... the children replied.

This is my eldest Ella Maurelle, my son Kalen Maurelle and my youngest Nissa Maurelle.
Lovely to meet you too, I'm sure my kids will get along well with you...
I hope you enjoy the food. Mrs. Strange gestured.
The cookies are yummy... Nissa said.

Why thank you, My mom made them. They are special and healthy so eat as much as you
can Mrs. Strange cradled her small face in her hand. And Nissa giggled.

"We are the towns doctor, My husband and I are doctors at the Alston Hospital. If there is any
medical help that you need, we well be happy to help you, Mrs. Strange."

Thank you for the kind offer, Mrs. Maurelle. I'm afraid I cannot offer you anything in return
but our hospitality, you see, our business are mainly Wine, Realty and Mining. Nothing
interesting really, so if you need any help with realty my husband would be happy to help you.
As well.

Sorry But are you not the Owner of Infinity Jewels Inc? The woman in the pink dress
needled.

Sorry for the interruption, My name is Myrka Drummond. It is a pleasure to meet you.
She came off a bit strong to Mrs. Strange. But Mrs. Strange grinned politely.
"Ugh, your Jewels are to die for." Mrs Drummond mentioned.

Why thank you Mrs Drummond, Just to answer your question. Yes, we are the owners of
Infinity Jewels."

Lots of people are, going crazy about it, some say it brings them Good luck.

The Strange family also has a Jewelry Business mainly handled By Mrs Strange before, but
now she doesn't pay attention to it that much because that's what you hire managers and
lawyers and other minions to do. But the Jewels that they sell, is from the Mining business of
the family, which is mined from Magical Lands and carved from Meteors, in other words,
Enchanted. So it gives certain people. Good luck.

Now we see someone winning the lottery screaming of joy, and another person Getting
accepted in a job wearing the jewelry, or wearing a beauty pageant. Etc.,

Yes, some ores, minerals,meteorites and crystals are believed to hold certain magic or Good
luck in them, we gather those gems and make them into jewelry. Mrs Strange explained to
Mrs. Drummond But I don't think you would need it, You look beautiful on your own Mrs.
Drummond.

"Aw." Mrs Drummond replied acting coyly. "You don't need to say that." Then continued "I
know." Mrs Drummond said proudly.
Yes, your skin is beautiful Mrs. Drummond. Hard to believe you have an adult child.

I know right. Mrs Drummond answered.

Whats your secret.? Mrs. Strange inquired. This question seemed to throw Mrs Drummond
off a bit.

"uh hum" then there was a cough "Hello. Mrs. Strange, I am Warren Drummond. I am
Myrka's Husband and Manager. I'm sure you have seen her before, she's an actress."

Of course, I have, seen some of her films. Mrs. Strange replied.

"Ah!" She screamed, "Oh my goodness! You have! Now I feel so shy!" she acted demurely but
laughed proudly.

"You mustn't Mrs. Drummond, In fact, My sister watches you all the time."

Ahhh! Thank you so much for your support! Mrs. Drummond replied.

Her Eldest daughter looked at her with disgust. Mom, can you not!

Ahahah Mrs. Drummond laughed at her daughter, while her daughter texted on the phone.

I'm so sorry, About her, she's just a little hot headed, this is my daughter Durin and my baby
girl Orla.

Hi! Mrs strange. Mrs Drummond youngest greeted.

"Hello there love, maybe you can play with my children they are outside, their names are
Matilda, Lupus and the baby twins are Caedmon and Waldron."

Really? Are they nice? Orla asked.

Of course. And don't forget to grab a cookie while you're on your way?
"Okay," She replied.

Oh my god those cookies are to die for. Mrs. Drummond remarked.

"Thank you, my Mother made them." Mrs. Strange stated.

The man in black suit and white silver hair approached Mr. Strange Mr. Strange.

Ah, Hello sir? Mr Strange replied.

The man reached out for a handshake, Yes, I am Gideon Amun Leon. I am a Lawyer. A very
good Lawyer Mr Strange. He hands his card.

"Ah, I see. Amun? Like the King of Kings." Mr Strange queried.

"Aha! You're familiar with History. It's actually King of Gods. We were lucky enough to have
a Powerful family name. You're a powerful man Mr. Strange, so I'm guessing you know what
they say about places of power." Mr. Leon stated.

"Yes, of course, a place of power attracts powerful people. Positive attracts positive. Your
business must be good." Mr Strange affirmed.

"Ah, you believe in superstition as well. Yes. As I've said I'm a very good Lawyer. Not one lost
case. Should you need any of my services, feel free to contact me." Mr Leon offered.

Dear... A woman touched her Mr Leon's arm, I apologize for my husband, all he knows is
business, the woman smiled at Mr. Strange and proceeded to have a handshake.

Mr. Strange this is my wife Circe Leon and those at the back are my children,
Lucian and Medea Leon. Mr. Leon gestured to his children.

"Ah, twins... hello. We have twins as well." Mr. Strange waved at them, And they smiled back.
I want you to meet my wife...

Morgana... Mr Strange beckoned to his wife, who at the time was talking to Mrs Drummond.

Ah, My husband is calling me, Twas nice meeting you all. and left to go to Mr. Strange.

At the Mayor's car.

"Would you look at that, this is one of the most expensive things, one can buy."
"Best keep an eye of people like them, George. If you can buy things like these, you can buy
anything." The Mayor ordered.

"Of course Mr. Mayor." His Minion wearing a black business suit, blonde hair and sunglasses
in the middle of the night replied.
"Can you hand me that jar of cookies" The Mayor grabbed some cookies from the jar.
"But sir, aren't you watching your sugar intake." The Servant asked.

"Shut up, George." the Mayor sarcastically replied while he gorged on the cookies.
"Oh my god this is good".

The Mayor tried to grab the whole jar from George.

George refusing to let it go. "But Sir".

"But Sir.." the Mayor antagonistically replied

In the end, as they fought for the jar of cookies, the mayor finally won. "Just give it!"

The Mayor had a sweet tooth and had a knack for luxurious things. Good for him.

Then we hear a scream. Back at the mansion, Blood gushes out of a man's mouth, lots of blood.
While a brown haired woman screams her lungs out, She screams some more.
The man thinks "This noisy bitch.." and coughs blood on her.
The man fell on the floor, And blood continues to ooze from his mouth and spread on the tiles.
Thick red blood.
She screams some more. Then she felt something in her mouth, she touched her lips with her
fingertips and saw what seemed to be blood, she felt a pang of pain in her stomach and fell face
flat on the floor. Thank Goodness, she was a noisy bitch. Annoying really. It was Michelle and
Cornell Graves.

Matilda: Oh my goodness, really?

Narrator: Yes, finally, she was annoying...
Matilda: Oh my god that blood is going to look so good on the floor.
Narrator: So good...

A Gasp from everyone and they all moved away from the victims.
Morgana made her way to them. Angry of what had happened.

Mrs. Maurelle asked "What is happening?" she moved towards the people, and checks on them.
Poison. they've been poisoned.

Then, most of the normal people stomach started to hurl, and some of them fainted and some of
them were just confused about what to do.
Then everyone stopped Moving. The blood from Mr Cornell stopped flowing. The curtains
seemed floating, the plates that were knocked off was Immobile, and the People who were
about to fall was suspended in the air, It was as if time stopped. Mrs Strange made her way to
Philomena and waved her hand in front of Philomena's face. She moved.

Philomena, Call an ambulance, well unfreeze them once the ambulance makes it way here.
Just so the blood would stop spilling. Philomena Quickly made the call.

Scene 8

Sounds of Siren, while red and blue light can be seen in the background. A notepad is being
opened and a man in a brown coat can be seen interviewing several people, while
several people is being carried on a stretcher and is being loaded into an ambulance.

Lupus and Matilda sat on the porch while Morgana, Philomena stood at the archway, Mr.
Strange was waiting for the Detective.

"Mr. and Mrs. Strange, Detective James Alexander. He introduced himself.

Has anything like this happened to you before.?" the detective inquired.

"No, this is the first time." replied Mr. Strange.

"Then we would have to invite you in the station for questioning...there was a vial of cyanide
found in your kitchen, I believe someone administered it in your soup, since it was next to the
soup pot, and we've sent it to the laboratory to have it checked."

"Nancy cooked the soup," Matilda mentioned.

"Whose Nancy?"

"She is our new maid."

"Nancy..hmmm, and you said she was new." Detective Alexander inquired.

Morgana's Eye brow raised in annoyance, "She came a few days ago. looking for a job."

"It seems very coincidental don't you think?" Morgana now looking at Philomena, sardonically.
"Nice work, Philomena."

"Why did you say that? " asked the detective.

"Well, Sir I was really Eager to hire her, poor thing was drenched in the rain," Philomena
replied.

"Okay, so you just straight up hired a stranger, as your maid? The Detective asked
sarcastically. Everyone had a blank face as a reaction, so he continued what does she look
like?"

"Probably in her thirties, with plump skin, and blonde hair, green eyes. not too fat, not too
thin." Mr Strange replied.

"And Where is she now?" the Detective asked, worried.

"Inside the house," Matilda replied.

Then we can see from the archway, everyone looked inside.

"Dispatch, code five zero five, assailant might still be in the house. medium built. a woman in
her thirties. blonde hair. green eyes."

The detective pulled out his gun and entered the house.
He motioned and informed the two officers inside the house, which made them alert so they
grabbed their guns and started looking for Nancy.

"That Whore of Beelzebub!" Morgana hissed angrily.

"Don't get stressed, my love." Mr Strange Massaging Morgana's shoulders.

Then Lupus and the twins grinned, Soon after Matilda smiled realizing what was gonna
happen. They were like puppies excited for new toys. They all looked at their parents looking
for approval.

"I suppose..."

"We can go hunting...." Mr. Strange Announced.

The children gasped in excitement and Morgana smiled devilishly.

She put her arms over Mr. Strange shoulders. "Ah my love, you always know what to say."
then kissed him passionately.
"Ugh what a revolting sight to see. I'm going back to sleep. Philomena waved her hand in
disbelief. "Good luck. Don't get caught."

Matilda and Lupus eyes blackened, their teeth seemed a little bigger from grinning, they were
crouching and seemed hungry.

"Ah, ah, ah, children" Mr Strange imposed.

"Remember what to do first?"

"Always check if someone is looking." the twins replied in a creepy conjunction.

"Good. We hunt at midnight." Mr Strange expression changed, He scowled and looked wicked.

Then we see the full moon and the dark clouds hovering over it.

Scene 8

Into the Woods.

Nancy escaped at the confines of the Dark Forest.

It was not a good place to be, the thick fog covered the forest and there were creatures making
eerie noises. When she first saw it, she thought it wood be a good hiding place for her car, but
now between the dark and the screeching, scampering noises of the creatures at night, she
couldn't help but say, "Oh shit... well this was a bad idea. she looked back then she started to
walk and then she heard a sound.

"Coo!" "Coo!"

The sound startled her, she was beginning to get nervous, her heart beat fast, her sweat fell
across her forehead to her face. The fog thickened and the cold wind trickled upon her spine.
As she walked, the twigs and the crusty leaves began crunching under her feet.

"Nothing to be afraid of Nancy..." she told herself.

She breathed heavily, was it getting colder?, were the trees becoming taller?, was it getting
darker?, she thought to herself.

"Where is it?" she asked herself.

Her mind was beginning to play tricks with her now. She felt something following her, she felt
the vibration of a sound.

"Mmmmmm." It played in her head.

"Its just in my head. she nervously mumbled, she began to laugh and clutch her head.

"Awoooooooooooooooooooooooo".

She heard a wolf howl and then a snuffle from far away.

She began to breathe heavily, Its coming towards her...

So she ran, she ran as fast as she could, and the thorns and the branches seemed to enclose on
her, they seemed like dark hands wanting to grab her.... she started screaming and crying under
her breath, and then she tripped, she breathed heavily, she tried to get up, crawled then stopped
to catch her breath under a big tree. "uh huh... uhuh ha ha hahaha" she laughed and cried at the
same time. She closed her eyes for a few seconds.

Then she heard leaves crunching, she felt drops of water falling on her face, but when she
opened her eyes, It was too late. Small hands grabbed her hair, and it was pulling her, it was
dragging her body somewhere. She tried to see who it was, but her vision was still a bit blurry
from waking up. The hand pulled her hair more, she screamed out of anger more than fear,
"aaahhh!" and tried to escape by scuffling her feet on the ground.

Let go of me you bitch!

she tried to break free of the hands that were holding her. But she couldn't. It just whistled
happily as it dragged her body across the forest floor. Then she passed by someone, It was
Sullivan. He Smiled. Then he saw Lupus, Something changed in him, he looks different, was
his teeth a little bigger?, was his eyes a little blacker?, The thought shortly passed her mind.

He was sitting on a tree branch, smiling like a demon at her. She was taken in the middle of the
forest. The thick forest surrounded them, there was a large circle connecting to a sedgy, gangly
pathway, and there was what seemed to be a blue Volkswagen being badly hidden in leaves and
branches.

Then whoever was carrying her, threw her on the ground. Her face hit the floor and her lips
kissed the ground, it was as if she ate dirt as it covered her mouth and face. She saw two pairs
of feet. She looked up, It was Morgana and behind her was Mr. Strange. Morgana Held
Nancy's face and squeezed her cheeks.
"Where are you going, Nancy?." Morgana drilled.

Maaaam?, I was just going for a walk. She sat up cleaned her self a bit. She wore a
humorless smile and acted innocently.

"Did you Poison all those people Nancy?, Did you?" Mr. Strange Picked her up by her neck,
and she seemed to gasp for breath. He looked different she thought.

Do you have any idea, the situation you put us in.? He Scowled and looked Livid, almost
evil.

Nancy tried to talk, she tried to hold on to Mr. Strange hands for support, "Please Sir. I've no
idea what you're saying, Sir." And she bore a mirthless smile, even though she was being
strangled and gasping for breath.

He let her go and she fell on her butt, on the ground.

She sneered and laughed at everyone, Really this is so funny, you've no evidence. It was me?
She knew that Sullivan was not that smart, and so she lied without remorse because of this. She
laughed some more, and then she felt her collar being grabbed and suddenly she was slung and
sent flying into a tree. Matilda had thrown her out of irritation. She was disconcerted for a few
seconds. Then her eyes widened, these people were strong, why was this? She started thinking.
What are you? You freaks!

Then Matilda and Lupus looked at each other and they laughed, Then Morgana and Mr.
Strange laughed, even Sullivan, laughed, It was a strange laugh. Deep and evil. Then suddenly
all of them had a low guttural laugh.

"What a shame your really evil. We could have been friends. Ah, but you got us in trouble, so."
Morgana enthused.

Sullivan, have they left the house? Morgana referring to the Police.

Yes, Madam I believe so.

"Let's go Home," Morgana Told everyone.

Lupus Jumped from the tree and Sullivan grabbed Nancy's arm. She started laughing again.
Then they took a step, then everyone was gone in an instant.

Then they reappeared at the Strange Mansion. Morgana Had teleported everyone back home.

"Woah, what the fuck is this?, who are you?, what are you, people?! Are you even people?!"
Nancy screamed as she panicked, she was discombobulated, from teleporting but she tried to
break free from Sullivan's clutches.

Luna di Nychta Nasconderci Matilda Held what seemed to be a black wand pointing at the
moon And a white luminance covered their house and the forest surrounding their house. It was
a concealment charm.

Help! Help! Somebody Help Me!!!!!! She screamed.

"Shh...Shhh...Shhhh..." Morgana put her finger near her mouth. "No one can hear you really."

But today is your lucky day! Morgana motioned to Sullivan and Sullivan threw Nancy on the
ground.

Despite your shortcomings, be grateful, you get to be an offering to the Gods. One of the
highest honor a human can ever do.

"What?!" her demeanor changed "hahaha" she laughed mocking the family. "You guys are just
a bunch of psychos! Wait till the police hear bout this! Hahaha, you probably poisoned all those
people. Hahahahah" she cackled merrily. She wanted to put the blame on the family because
they had no proof. For a second she forgot what just happened, and then she remembered, she
was transported here in a flash, she got agitated, then suddenly she felt bizarre like she was on
drugs, time seemed slow. She grabbed her head.

Enough of this. Mr. Strange Grabbed Nancy, Morgana! Mr. Strange Motioned to his wife.

I was thinking Matilda should do it today. It will be her first time.

Go on dear... Morgana suggested.

Matilda had a vexed face as if to say, "Wow this is dangerous but okay."

Ah, ah, ah, no excuses, Morgana demanded.

Matilda knelt in front of the house. Grabbed dirt and raised it high above her head.

Gaia Accept our offering.

deffro ein ty. hamaly soa azy amin'ny fanahy

amukele umnikelo wethu

Make her bleed love... Morgana motioned to Mr. Strange.

*insert song here, for example, Static x - Cold*

Mr. Strange brought Nancy To Matilda. Matilda covered Nancy's face, her chest, and arms with
dirt. Nancy was still fazed.

Then Mr. Strange started to look different, He looked malevolent, He tilted Nancy's head,
covered her mouth with the palm of his hands, then she started to mumble something out of
fear, but it couldn't be heard, He looked up and he already has 2 sharp white fangs but as he
opened his mouth, It seemed to grow larger, sharper, It seemed like it can cut through anything.

Nancy's eyes widened, she was frantic, she started squirming, but in one giant Swoop, Mr.
Strange Sunk his teeth in Nancy's neck, It crunched and she was in pain, she tried to scream,
but her cries were muffled, tears start to arise from her eyes, Mr. Strange drank some more, She
was convulsing, blood fell from her neck to her clothes, as this happened you can see the blood
Entering Mr. Strange, throughout the veins of his face, he opened his eyes, and it was pitch
black, even the white was gone, the blood traveled to his neck, to his hands that were holding
nan's neck, and once he felt refreshed, he licked his lips and his face was covered with blood.

The Blood in Nancy's neck was gushing, The family felt hungry, They hissed as the smell of
blood emanated the air, their fangs appeared.

Mr. Strange thrust Nancy on the floor, forcing her to kneel, she felt weak and dazed. She felt a
sudden pang in her neck, ahhh, she grumbled as she touched her neck and her chest, It was
then she found out she was covered with blood, her blood. She was flabbergasted, tears start to
arise from her eyes, So she screamed a scream so loud, it made the birds and the bats fly away
from the trees, but it seemed no matter how loud she screamed and screamed and screamed
some more, nobody heard. Just the animals and her. She realized this because she was evil, so
instead of just being petrified, she scowled as a deep seething anger came over her, but it wasn't
enough to conjure up the energy to escape.
Matilda thrust Nancy's head to bow down to the ground and Nancy held on to the ground for
support, her blood began to sprinkle the earth, Her thoughts were hazy now as she lost so much
blood, she wanted to fight back but she couldn't, her arms were flailing, She was going to save
her energy she thought. She was going to run the fuck out of here she thought, and kill this
asshole family.

Then the ground began to quake, slowly the ground opened and there was a gaping glowing
hole. It was emitting a yellow light as it opened, then it became red and finally when it was as
big as a pond, whatever was underneath, was emitting blue light. It released what seemed to be
blue light and orbs enveloping the house.

Then a yawn from a Monster Like Voice.

Nancy hearing this voice was almost out of it, but when she saw the house move, adrenaline
began to rush over her and was now aware of what was happening, You... You.. are not
people!

"No. We're not my dear..." Morgana shot back.

Who woke me? The house spoke through his mouth which was the door. Creating movement
around the house some of the stones and bricks fell, creating cracks.

We are your new owners, how did the people in the house, die?

*Inside *

Meanwhile, Grandma and Grandpas bed was sliding from left to right while they slept.

The windows started to flicker, It seemed to be its eyes. Then it answered. A Low guttural
sound came out.

That Woman, Nancy, she put Poison in the soup. The House now looking at Nancy.

How come we, and the other people didn't get poisoned? Lupus asked.

Grandmas Cookies are enchanted, whoever devoured it, or chose to eat it was saved.

Oh! everyone said in unison.

Is there anything more? The house asked.

"No" Morgana replied, "Go back to sleep, big House, but stay awake, in case we need you."

Nancy laughed, angry and raving "Hahaha, Yes, It was me, those people were pathetic! They
needed to di..."

Before she could finish her sentence. Morgana punctured through her chest like a knife slicing
butter and gutted her heart out, blood spilled from her open chest, Morgana devoured the heart,
She closed her eyes and drank the blood from the heart. Blood spurted out of the heart as she
bit through it, It splattered on her clothes, and was flowing profusely on her arms, slowly, It
covered Morgana's mouth and cheeks. Once her thirst was quenched, she felt euphoria
overcame her, It made her look to the moon, She opened her eyes and It was pitch black, she
bore her fangs and licked the blood on her lips, as the blood travelled to her face, her neck and
her body, she became filled with the blood and her skin became softer, she looked younger,
more radiant, refreshed.

She tilted her head, and gave the heart to Matilda. Matilda elated, grinned.

Accept this Gaia as thanks for answering our calls. Matilda dropped the heart in the gaping
hole of blue light, It was Gaia. The blue light seemed to pulse like a heart. Blue light seemed to
spread through the ground like lightning.

Matilda bit through Nancy's wrist and her eyes blackened, the blood spread throughout her
body and her hair became longer, her skin softer and her lips was blood red. There were lines
of blue that lit up in her body, like tattoos that lit up, in her forehead and her cheeks had dots
and lines, as well as her arms and legs, the twins bit through Nancys legs, and Caedmons Skin,
pulsed white and blue light that looked like scales on his fore head, cheeks and arms and legs,
same with Waldron, But Waldrons light was red. They bit through her legs and Drank her
blood. Then Lupus eyes, darkened with hunger, and he transformed into a black wolf. "All
yours," Matilda said to her brother, Lupus ravenously ravaged her innards, and Sullivan ate her
brains. We can hear a wolf and zombies subdued eating sounds.

Once they were done, Lupus howled.

"Accept her body to close this spell." Then Matilda threw the body into the gaping hole.

Gaia Chiudiamo l'incantesimo

The blue light pulsed and emitted orbs. The trees seemed alive as the orbs infiltrate their
bodies, the flowers seemed to wake up from sleep, the grass seemed to be greener, but shortly
after the wind became stronger, the hole as it closes, released a strong wind that tried to suck
everyone inside of it.
Matilda was near the hole so she almost fell, she clawed on the dirt on the ground so she will
not fall. She pulled out her wings but she only used it to fight the wind, it was impossible to fly,
the whirlpool of wind was too strong.

Lupus was in wolf form and was able to run and claw on the dirt and grab on a tree. Like a
monkey.

Mr. Strange was a little bit futher away, but he could move through the speed of sound, so he
was able to grab the twins and moved quickly to a far off tree, the twins were also quick and
can fly but they were no match for the strength of Gaia. Then he told Caedmon and Waldron to
grab hold of the tree, like little insects, the babies did. Mr. Strange trusted Morganas
capabilities so he didn't come to their aid but came for Sullivan, He grabbed him quickly to
where the twins were.

Morgana's hair grew longer, and moved as if it had its own life, It grabbed hold of Matilda, and
some of her other hair grabbed hold of the trees for support, then quicklyshe teleported, to
where her family was. They were now all safe.

They looked as the Hole closed. There was a strong wind that wanted to engulf everything,
then there was nothing, just silence. The trees didn't seem to be alive anymore and the flowers
seemed to go back to sleep.

Lupus walked off and said, "Well next time, lets probably get CCTV."

Morning came.

Detective Alexander visited The Strange Household.

"Mr and Mrs Strange..." The detective's eyes widened, he was a bit shocked, the family looked
stranger in the Morning.

But he continued, "Uhm we found some file about your maid, thanks to the picture Ms.
Philomena provided, and some CCTV we found around town, we saw a file that matched your
maid, She was Nancy Doss, She is a serial killer, who was known for poisoning families that
she served, and she giggled all while she was poisoning the family according to some
survivors, and witness. Really weird. You guys were lucky enough to survive"

The family smiled at him, they were on the porch outside.

I think you weren't able to eat the batch, that she made, unfortunately, we couldn't find her, we
suspect she skipped town, but we found some of what we believe are her belongings and a van
hidden in the forest. But rest assured, Mr. and Mrs. Strange we will try our best to find her.

How about the victims? Philomena asked the detective.

"Unfortunately, two ate too much that they died, Michelle and Cornell Graves died."

"Most, fortunately survived and was given an antidote. Best if you keep to yourselves for now.
Even though it's not your fault, some people might blame you."

Well try to send. Something to the victims.

"Hopefully not food" The detective joked, trying to clear the air.

Goodness, No. Morgana said.

"Well send them some flowers. And an apology note." Philomena said, "I'll take care of
Everything."

"Thank you, Mr Detective..." Mr. Stranged expressed his thanks through a handshake.

Well, I best be going, Thank you for your time and cooperation...

Before the detective can go, Grandma offered him some cookie.

Do you want some cookie?

"It's not poisoned right?" The detective laughed.

Everyone looked at him seriously.

I'll just take some of this. The detective mused, And left.

"Well, what did we learn about today?"

Matilda was standing next to the railings of the porch, Lupus and the twins were sitting,
Philomena, Mr. and Mrs. strange was standing in the porch Hallway, and Grandma and
Grandpa sat in their rocking chairs.
"Never to trust Anyone," Matilda replied.

Did you hear that twins? Mr. Strange carried them.

"They replied, "Yes, Poppa."

Ah I thought, Maybe it would've been more fun if she was possessed. Lupus cackled.

We can't have too much fun, Love. Morgana snickered and told Lupus.

Also don't forget to Thank your Grandma for saving the day, because of her Yummy
cookies. Mr. Strange reminded.

"Oh yah, You saved the day Grandma." Matilda enthused.

Thanks Grandma. We love you. Everyone hugged and Thanked Grandma.

Quickly, lets go inside. Then everyone Followed Mr. Strange.

Lupus noticed Matilda. What is it?

Matilda was looking at something.

*Insert suspense song like for example Pusicfier the remedy*

It was the Detective. He saw something on the ground.

Its was red. He looked up. Looked back at the house. And smiled at Matilda he waved.

Matilda miffed, snubbed him and continued to walk inside.

The Detective grabbed something from the ground. He put it inside a small ziplock bag.

It was dried red blood sitting on the dirt.

We see matilda look back again. As the detective walks away. She was supicious of him.

Then She slammed their large door shut.

We see the devils knocker. As we zoom out of the house and we see the vast forrest surround it
and over the Horizon, you can see the Ocean.

*insert ending song for example Aurora Running with the wolves.*
