The room felt cold when you opened your eyes. The morning sun beaming through your bedroom window, basking the room in a golden glow. the morning has a bite to the air that makes you chilled, but that won't last long now the season is getting hotter. Rolling over, you look towards the window, seeing how you accidentally left it cracked from the night before. You lowly groan, finally lifting yourself up out of bed, your feet touching the cold floor while your bones crack as you stretch.
Looking at the clock on the bedside table, it reads "9:24am" you sigh, knowing you were planning to go to town today. The towns folk didn't greet you with warm smiles like they did with each other, they glared and looked the other way. The towns folk knew you were a witch, so naturally they were afraid of you, humans were always afraid of the unknown. Walking up to the window, you close it shut, making the room more quiet. Might as well start getting ready now.
Walking along the forest surrounded path always felt like a blanket of doom rested on your shoulders, heavy with dread as you thought about how the village folk will look at you once you stepped out of these woods. With nothing but disgust and fear. Shaking your head, your grip tightens on your leather bag strap, theres no point in wallowing in their judgment. But the anxiety continues to weigh down heavy in your chest, making you frown.
until it suddenly lifts, disappearing quickly and is replaced by a warm and lighter feeling of content. It makes your skin feel warm against the chilly morning air. You stop in your tracks, taken off guard by the sudden change in mood. Now looking around as if it would help you figure out what had caused the mood shift, but you find nothing but trees. The sun beaming through the leaves make the thick forest spotted with glowing gold, lighting up the ground in its wake. But you still find nothing between the swaying trees.
Theres a moment of silence while you stand there in the middle of the path, letting yourself feel the energy of the space around you. You can feel a faint foreign energy you've never felt before while taking this path, but the warmth flooding your body covers it well, making it impossible to tell what it could be from. After a moment of simply letting the warmth sit in your chest, you decided to continue on down the path. Shaking your head at your ridiculous reaction. Its probably just you accepting that the towns folks opinion is shit, or a hidden panic attack.
Making it to the village didn't take long, especially with the new found determination to get your errands done and get home before nightfall. You stop by multiple shops during the day, buying fruit, vegetables, ingredients, books, and supplies to last you another few weeks, the more you get this supply run the longer you will get to wait until you have to return to this forsaken village.
The sun is setting as you enter the last shop of the day. The bell above the door rings out through the stone walls, alerting the shop owner. A old woman dressed in scarves and layers of fabric emerges from the back room, making eye contact with you. She smiles at you "well well! Look who's back" you offer her a smile back "good evening Eleanor" Eleanor is the only villager that was ever nice to you, she doesn't judge a book by its cover. Always offering you a bright smile and kind words. You are greatful she doesn't ask questions either.
you take a look around her shop. Medicines in bottles on the shelves where they usually are, along with bandages and other Medical idems. "What have you been up to lately?" Eleanor asks with a hint of mischief in her voice, making you look towards her behind the counter. Only to find her already looking at you. "Um" you look away from her "just been focusing growing some new herbs in my garden" you look back to her form "Why?" You question her, knowing she never usually pries into what you do outside of the village.
"Well" she starts "The village has some new neighbors. They live somewhere in the forest im guessing. Have you met them?" She says it casually, making you shrug while you take a bandage for sale off the shelf. "New neighbors? I can't say ive noticed anyone out of the ordinary" you say. Which makes her laugh "they are definitely out of the ordinary all right" that makes you pause, frowning your eyebrows in confusion at her words "How so?" She beams, almost to excited at the idea of gossiping "they're vampires" the words hung in the air, the silence thick with tension that seemed to be only coming from you.
Vampires? You think, you've never encountered a vampire before, let alone multiple of them. "Vampires?" You say, putting the medicine and bandages on the counter to pay for them. Eleanor nods her head "isn't that something!" She leans closer over the counter "maybe you five could be friends! They are lovely gentlemen, good on the eyes as well if i do say so myself" she winks, her wrinkly face smiling as she teases. Five? Theres four vampires here!? Your mind is full of rushing thoughts, how did you not feel their energy? Surely you would've felt them by now.
"Here you go dear" Eleanor pulls you from your thoughts, handing you your purchases without a bag, knowing you'll just shove them into your magical leather bag anyway. "Now listen" she beckons you closer to her "be careful in those woods you hear?" She pats your face, her rings cold against your skin, before sending you out the door. Telling you to turn the "open" sigh to "closed" on your way out as she heads to the back room to clean up for the day.
The sun is fully set when you step out of the shop. The sky is a midnight blue as it covers the land in darkness, making you realise you have to walk back through the woods in the complete dark. You huff out a frustrated sigh, eleanor with her gossip. You make your way through the dimly lit village, passing by shops that are now closed. Your footsteps lowly echo on the stone sidewalk, followed by crickets and the sound of frogs in the cracks of the builds.
Suddenly you feel a drop in your stomach, a sickening feeling of alarm shoots through you as you walk, your intuition blaring red sirens in every way it could. Before you could react to the dark feeling, a hand grips your arm tightly and pulls you roughly into the dark ally beside you. Your world spins as your thrown into the stone wall. Two voices are heard laughing "we were waiting for you, witch" a mans voice cuts through the air, making you look up to see two male villagers in front of you, looking at you with smug smirks on their faces.
The other puts his hand on your jaw, slamming it back into the concrete, making you let out a small groan of pain whilst your head spins in dizziness. Fear fills your body while you reach to open your bag and find something to protect yourself with, but one of men yank it the strap over your head and throw it to the ground. Theres disgust on their face as they look at you, before a wave of eerie excitement crosses one of them "Ive been wanting to do this this the moment i heard there was a witch over staying its welcome" he reaches to the side of his belt, before pulling out a slick blade. It gleams in the lantern light, striking more fear into your heart immediately.
You don't notice it immediately, but you can feel it before you see the dark inky shadow wrapping its way around the man beside the one holding the knife. His yelp making your head turn to him as he suddenly goes flying into the wall in front of you, hitting it with a loud crash. The wind knocked from his lungs as you and his friend watch him get thrown to the ground in shock. A shadow now forms above him. Dark as a void as it stands tall, its face is dark but you can make out a rough shape of a skull. Its energy is dark and incredibly angry.
The man with the knife tightens his grip on it, his breathe getting faster as he looks at the shadow, before turning to you. "Damn witch!" He thinks this is one of your spells. But you can only stare in shock at the dark figure. Until a sharp angry pain blooms across your stomach, making you yelp out in pain and drop to your knees. "Bitch!" The man tries to take off running out of the ally, but one of the shadows tendrils wraps around his ankle, making him trip and land on his stomach.
The man screams in fear as the shadow throws him around angrily, knocking him into his friend thats already on the ground. You watch in terror, thinking you're next. Blood seeps through your clothes as you lean back against the wall, the pain from the stab is almost unbearable. "Hey bonnie" a Scottish accent says, their proximity very close to you. You jump, turning your head to be met with a man crouching in front of you. When did he get there? His eyes flicker to where your holding your stab wound, worry evident in his gaze.
He switches to his knees, inching closer to you "let me see" he gently grabs your arm, pulling your hand away from your stomach. You make a sound of pain, your breath coming out uneven "I know hen, its okay" he says softly. He glances back to where the shadow is fighting the two men, before looking back to you. His eyes locked on yours "you have to trust me okay?" He doesn't wait for your reply as he reaches his hand out and puts his hand gently on your stomach.
His touch is warm, immediately making the wound no longer bleed or hurt. Your breath starts to slow, your head getting drowsy. "They got you pretty good didn't they?" He says lowly, His other hand reaching up to rest on your head, somehow already knowing the villagers smashed your head into the wall. The pain from your wound is no longer there as he keeps his hand steady on your stomach. A warmth that can almost be considered hot radiates from his hand, soothing you even while the two men get dealt with in the background.
Darkness starts to cloud your vision slowly, feeling yourself beginning to fade out of consciousness between him and the wall. "You're alrigh'" you can't seem to feel fear anymore even while you slip into darknness. His reassuring energy mixed with the comfort of healing makes it easy to let yourself go. The last thing you catch before passing out was the sound of two new voices echoing off the alleyways stone walls, speaking words your mind can't comprehend in your sleeping state.
