Chapter 56

“Put the gun down.” Hissed the witch, staring at the little girl.

“She made dad kill mom!” Screamed Coralina, her body was shuddering in terrible sobs, as she was tied to the chair. The tears were running down like waterfalls. Her sobs were so painfully strong that the cabin seemed to wince.

“Put the gun down.” Hissed the witch again. She took a few steps toward Beth, but Mark suddenly slammed past her.

“You are next.” Said Mark and he turned, slamming into the witch. He shoved her to the floor and leapt on Coralina. He looked massive compared to the tiny girl, his hands nearly wrapped around her throat ten times.

Coralina let out a scream, is her father’s hands pressed to her face. Beth was screaming. Her dad was slowly suffocating her sister. Coralina’s eyes were wide with fear, as she frantically stared at her sister then the witch, back and forth. Begging with her eyes.

The witch stood slowly, cracking her spine loudly as she pulled herself off the floor. She cocked her head to the side, and smiled her terrible teeth at Beth She took one step forward.

But Beth, against all odds, did the one thing she was most terrified of doing. She pulled the trigger.
