"Thackery Binx! What took thee so long?"
"My apologies, Emilly. You see, I had to wait Three-hundred years for a virgin to light a candle..."
"...A candle?"
"Most unusual, I know. Rememberst thou the witches that killed you?"
"The ones who made the potion that tasted of rotten frogs' bosoms?"
"I...yes? They made it so that I was cursed into the form of a cat, and couldn't die. I had to wander the Earth, alone, for three-hundred years, guarding the candle to keep them from rising again. I didn't want anyone else to lose their sisters, mind you, so I had planned on guarding that candle forever."
"...As a cat? That can't have been terribly effective."
"I never said it was a good plan. One day...well, yesterday, a virgin came into the cabin, lit the candle, and do you want to know what happened then, after he lit the candle?"
"Do tell!"
"The witches came up from the floor, winds swept the cabin like demons, and the dead were summoned. They- the witches -tried to kidnap Dani!"
"Who is 'Dani'?"
"The Virgin's younger, spritely sister. She is very much like yourself."
"I should think I will like her."
"Indeed. As I had said, the witches tried to kidnap Dani! The virgin- I suppose we should call him 'Max' -managed to get everyone out using a device that can summon fire! The fire made rain fall from the roof!"
"Devilry?"
"Nay, T'was more like flint and steel, but safer, and smaller."
"Ah. And the rain?"
"It is a witch's cabin. After we escaped, Max, Dani, and Max's lover, Allison fled to a new location."
"What did you and those fellows do next?"
"We regrouped, and hid, giving us time to plan."
"Plan?"
"We needed to get the spell-book away from Winnie, the leader of the coven."
"What happened when you got this book?"
"I suppose that we unleashed a whole bunch of Hocus Pocus."
