Chereads / Dancing with death / Chapter 12 - Blood moon

Chapter 12 - Blood moon

It's was a blood moon day

The stars filled up the night sky

people grouped around each other

The village started to rumor and joked around

A showman stand on a fountain

"Have you ladies and gentlemen heard of 'la veuve morte'!~" The showman mysterious whispered

The crowded shook their heads

"Its.."

He jumped off the fountain and jumped out a group of kids

"It's a beast that lives up in castle deep into the foggy poisonous forest"

"It's a witch that can curse on people, a beast that is so cold hearted and blood thirsty and loves to see people suffer by their hands!."

He screamed at the groups of little kids who yelled and ran away

"A beast who also abuses a princess!"

The crowds gasped

"This beast lives along the shadows, you good miss!" He pulled in a woman "you even seen the beast with you're own eyes!"

"Oh yes! It was horrible!..they glared at me to the point death themselves are afraid of them!..the horrific beast was taller than anyone else here!.."

A man came in "They almost killed my son!.."

"They threatened me!.."

"They threatened my kids who aren't anything but an angel to them!.."

"If they see you run away as far as you can or they will kill you!.."

The showman spoke up again

"Shhhh..we can not be too loud, they can hear us from a mile away for they are part of the coldest of nights, I think we all know who we are talking about here~..It's no other than.."

He took out a picture of willow

"Willow!~"

The crowd cave in shouted in horror

"I heard that they live in your nightmare"

"That person is no good!.."

"That person hurts their own sister!."

"Belladonna has done nothing wrong and yet Willow hates her so much!.."

"Of course willow hates her, she's everything that beast isn't!."

"Willow has no emotions and only wants to destroy everything!.."

"I heard they stalk people at night!.." "People please settle down.."

The crowd stopped as they saw Belladonna walked inside the crowd, they were all breath taken by her beauty

"I understand you all worried for me but please understand that nothing is wrong for I am safe

All my maids have been keeping me safe and while yes they do shout at me and almost hit me from time to time.."

The group gasped

"But I do love my sibling very much and.."

Charlot stood there in the crowd

He had seen enough..

"¿Adónde crees que vas? (Where do you think your going?)" His brother asked

"Voy a ver a mi amigo..(I'm going to see my friend..)"

"¿tan tarde?(so late?)"

Charlot nodded to which his brother sigh and told him to be safe

He quickly went deep inside the foggy forest

He smiled happily when he made it and knocked on the door

"Who is it?.."

"Hey willow!!.."

"Oh..it's..you.."

"May I come in?.."

There was silence..

"Willow?.."

Charlot sigh and looked at a distance

He saw a bush filled with black roses

He had an idea

He quickly dashed to the black roses and picked out a few but it took some time

Then he went from the back to see Willow's outside porch that also connects to their room

He started climbing up

He struggled a bit and thought this was a bad idea but he made it safe and sound

He walked inside the room but it was so dark inside

Willow wasn't there

But he knew this trick

He followed the stars that reach to a wall

He pushed it walking inside the small room

And to see willow was there..

Sitting on the desk reading a book they looked dulled while reading..

They sigh

"Aren't you scared of me.."

"Not really.."

"Why.." Willow close their book and walked over to him

"You're just misunderstood.."

Charlot pulled out the black roses from behind his back

Willow looked a bit surprised

Willow slowly took it with a small blush forming from embarrassment

"You're a dummy…"

He chuckled

"Quite." Willow hit his head with the roses

"Ow!- hey you do not hit people with their present!-"
