Chapter 23 - The Witch’s Dairy

Dear dairy, today the King exiled me. He said no witch could be good. I don't want to believe him.  1/9/15xx

Dear dairy, I found a castle. I'm going to make it my home and no one can stop me. Just let them try.   4/12/15xx

Dear dairy, I added a few new things to the castle. However, I keep hearing something in the walls. I don't like it but a home is better than no home… I guess.   5/1/15xx

Dear dairy, someone else is here. I don't like them. They say witches are bad. Do you think I'm bad too? I don't want to be bad. I haven't let them see me… yet.   5/11/15xx

Dear dairy, I talked to a sweet man today. He helped me get some flowers for the castle. For some reason everything I plant dies. I won't stop trying. As for the man, he was loving. He said he liked witches. I hope I see him again.   5/21/15xx

Dear dairy, I saw him again. He helped me around the castle. For the first time, I didn't hear anything in the walls today. I think I love him. I hope he likes me too. He helps me stay sane.   5/25/15xx

Dear dairy, HELP ME! IT WON'T STOP! SOMETHING IS SCREECHING AT ME! I think I'll go to Alexandra's house. She's my best friend. She might help me. If not I can try Max, the sweet man from before. I don't want to bother him if I don't have to. But I haven't slept in days. This needs to stop.   6/8/15xx

Dear dairy, I just got back to the castle. Weird, some pages are missing. They aren't that important. Max said he'd stay with me for two weeks. I told him everything. I definitely love him. I want to be with him.   7/8/15xx

Dear dairy, something is not right. Alexandra came over today and said she hates me. Max was there to comfort me. Alexandra and I were friends since we were kids. I don't know what happened. Max said he'll help me find the missing pages. I don't mind but I don't want him to read them.   7/12/15xx

Dear dairy, we found a few chests. This is weird because I only had one in the castle. It even took out the other furniture and replaced them with chests. Max found one of my pages. It was the day we met. I just hope he doesn't find the next one.   7/14/15xx

Dear dairy, Max asked me to marry him. I said yes. He said he doesn't like the castle and I agree. So, next month I'll be his wife and live with him. I'm going to talk to Alexandra and see if we can still be friends.   8/1/15xx

Dear dairy, today Max found another page. I didn't even notice it was missing. He said he also found some TNT. Last I checked I don't have any. We're just going to find the pages and get out.   8/5/15xx

Dear dairy, I notice a pattern. I write in you twice and pages go missing. So, you know what from now on this it to whomever keeps taking from my dairy. I like my privacy. If you don't stop stealing from my diary after tomorrow, Max will stop will.   8/30/15xx

Tomorrow is my wedding day. I'm so excited. This is going to the best day ever. Alexandra is even coming. She and I made up. The weird thing is she doesn't remember saying that day.   8/31/15xx

DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE! DON'T LEAVE!

I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU! I NEED YOU!

Please, leave me alone! Seeing what you left scared me. Max said he didn't see you last night. We now have guards at our house. So, just leave me alone.   9/3/15xx

COME HOME EMILY! COME HOME EMILY! COME HOME EMILY! COME HOME EMILY! COME HOME EMILY! COME BACK WHERE YOU BELONG! THE CASTLE IS WAITING EMILY! COME HOME EMILY! COME HOME!

Please, stop. I'll go back. Just leave Max out of this. I think you already know but Max was poisoned. And everyone thinks I did it. If I come back will you leave him be? Please, if you agree then I'll come back.   9/20/15xx

HE'LL BE FINE! HE WILL LIVE! COME HOME EMILY! EMILY, COME HOME! THE CASTLE CALLS NOW ANSWER! ONCE YOUENTER YOU CAN'T EXIT! COME HOME EMILY! COME HOME EMILY! COME HOME EMILY! COME HOME EMILY! COME HOME EMILY! COME HOME EMILY! COME HOME EMILY!

Okay, I'm here. This is it. The castle that screeches. I'm sorry max. I'm sorry Alexandra. I should have never involved you in this. I hear Max pound on the iron door. Not even I can open them now. "EMILY, LET ME HELP YOU! PLEASE, MY LOVE! DON'T LEAVE ME!" He repeats. I don't make a sound. Are you happy now? I'm not. My love can't hold me. My friend can't save me. Where did I go wrong? It stopped talking once I got here. I found my way out back. Have a plan. I hope it works.   11/12/15xx

If you are reading this, you may want to know my plan. I planted TNT under the floor. I got caught trying to set it off but now you can. It's yelling at me. Have you heard it? If you succeed, tell my husband and son I tried. Now all you have to do is place in the middle of the red stone circle and flip it. If you don't mind, I built a room where you can watch it. Watch it for me. -Emily dragon   12/30/15xx

Dear Mother, I heard your story and reed your pages. Father found what you were doing and made a similar trigger. We love you too. Father wouldn't set off the TNT without you beside us. Father watched you in that room. He went to get you and found you dead. The castle won't let go of him. So, he died in there with you. Mother I walked through and unlocked every door. Now, I can say goodbye. To you and dad. I'll finish what you started 30 years ago. I love you both. Good bye. –Maximus Dragon
