Hey all you people out there!! Waves excitedly from her own computer.
I just had this great idea for a Sleepy Hollow fic and decided to try it. This story takes place a month after the movie ends.
Disclaimer: I do not own Sleepy Hollow the movie or the story. The first of which is
credited to Tim Burton and the legend was written by Washington Irving.
Witch's Blood
Ichabod...
Someone was calling me, but who? I looked throughout the woods of my childhood. Instantly becoming the young innocent boy I once was.
Ichabod...
I was getting closer the haunting voice beckoning me on. I reached a clearing in the woods and my heart lifted. I saw my mother with her back turned towards me. I ran to greet her and she turned to envelop me in a hug. Suddenly her embrace became tighter and I was having trouble breathing. I looked up into her face expecting to see the deep brown eyes of my mother and was shocked to see piercing emerald eyes staring at me.
I began to struggle trying to break the hold of this strange woman. My efforts just made the woman hug me tighter.
You can not escape me. Soon I will find you in the living world. I know you now Ichabod Crane; your mother's charms no longer hide you. Her blood may have escaped me, but not yours!
My eyes filled with terror as the woman smiled showing her sharp canines. She bent down placing her mouth against my neck. I screamed.
I felt my eyes snap open and found myself in the arms of my wife, Katrina. "What happened, Ichabod? Did you have another nightmare about your mother?" she asked.
"No, it was something much worse." I said. I began to tremble as I remembered the woman's words. Soon I will find you in the living world.
In another section of the city, a woman with flaming red hair opened her eyes. A triumphant smile graced her lips as her emerald eyes gazed into the fire before her.
"At last, the witch's blood will be mine." She whispered.
