Chereads / Lilo / Chapter 5 - Lured

Chapter 5 - Lured

Far away at the other side of the mansion stood a creature looking at Lilo

He had lured her here to the witches coven.

She knocked on the door of the mansion but there was no answer, she continued to knock until her hands became sore. She slowly fell on the cold marble as the cold engulfed her and she passed out.

The creature who had lured her to the witches coven stood on the other side of the mansion looking at Lilo. Grinning as his plan was successful.

[Master she's here the creature said bowing deeply].

"Hmm... let the Queen know at once he commanded".

Yes master as you wish! the creature bowed like his life depends on it.

* * *

Disappointed and ashamed, he couldn't look at his daughter anymore. what's happening to you papa, say something..

Momma! she called out to her mother but Mabel never came.

"Please don't leave me papa.. she cried out , what happened to you? she asked confused, although Lilo was twelve she was aware that her father was strangely not the same way he left"

[ Everything will be fine my little Lilo he said and then he turned to dust]

NO! she screamed

Lilo's eyes snapped open with a gasp and a tear drilled down her face, another nightmare of her father dying all over again, it was something she will never forget in a hurry.

The night was still cold and Lilo wanted to go back to sleep again but then she realized this was definitely not her room nor was she was lying in her bed, it was obvious that this mattress was really soft and fluffy compared to hers... she had come here for shelter, of course dumb head how could she forget.

She sat up on the bed and scanned the room, looking for a wall clock.. and she finally saw one, it was past midnight, ah it's still midnight, she muttered.

The light in room was dimed but with the help of the moon light she could still see how beautiful the room was well furnished although she didn't see everything, Lilo saw that the windows were opened, 'oh! so that was why the cold was getting to her, she sighed'

Getting down from the mattress, although she never had the intention to step down from heaven but since the windows were opened she didn't want to add to the existing cold she caught. "oh damn this bed is the bomb, she exclaimed", and when her feet touch the cold marble tiles she flinched and staggered "Aaahhh" she screamed sitting back on the bed, holding her leg.

[Oh my gosh what have I done to myself she whimpered]

Her ankle hurts so bad all in the name of walking, she had walked without realizing the distance, it was a really long distance i guess, she thought. But she wasn't comfortable with the opened windows so she limped carefully towards the windows, after closing the first one she was about closing the second one when the "moon called her".

it was really beautiful tonight, it was always beautiful to her... after all she loved watching the moon. Just as she was looking at the moon, 'she caught site of "flying birds" not too far from the mansion she was. Of course birds fly, she huffed, but in the middle of the night? she gluped scared', looking closely, she said with a whisper "these birds are flying with brooms?? no wait broom sticks?"

[ witches ] she gasp, Lilo was gob's macked and she shuddered with fear, her eyes widened. She had only had story about witches but to see them in action was something she didn't expect.

She slowly limped back not to get unnecessary attention, but she was curious, curious of what they were doing... at the same time she was scared, what is happening to me..?

Is this a dream? because if it is, it's a really bad dream, she said huskily

However, she moved closer to see more but "what if she gets caught?"
