Halloween Chapter one- Bewitched

Our story starts about 50 years before our sub-zero heroes were even born. It was the night of October 31st, or better known as Halloween. But there were no trick-or-treatrs now. There was a small human village with many tribes, but in one cave, there was a tribe that consisted of only three humans. Those three were very scary and strange people. The Holloway sisters, three middle aged women who were believed to be evil witches who were killing the village children and even animals with magic. These sisters could talk to animals and lure them and the village children with a cursing tune. There was one sister, Jane Holloway who was the leader of the other two and the oldest. The most advanced out of all of the witches in the cave. The next sister was an over weight dark haired witch by the name of Patricia Holloway, who just liked to go by Patty. The other sister, Abigail Holloway was the youngest witch, (by far the prettiest,) but probably the most dangerous of the sisters. She was the one who would lure children and animals with her special song which you will find out about later in the story. The one object in the old Cave-women's home that was the most dangerous of all was the Holloway Sister's potion book. It was full of spells and magic that the sisters used to kill the little tribal children of the Ice Age and the animals! Despite the witches and their evil book, the village of Ice Age cave people was a pleasant place to live.

In fact, there was another tribe, not far from where the Holloway sisters lurked. This tribe was the Knightly tribe. This tribe, unlike the Holloway's, was made up of a lot of people and had many children in it. Including the tribal leader's daughter and son, Jack and Nina.

Nina loved to play, and today was no exception. She ran in the woods and was about to go back to the cave when she heard her older brother, Jack, calling for her. She knew that if Jack found her, the fun would end so she yelled to him, "Try and catch me first!"

Jack groaned, "Nina… no, you have to come back now! I don't know why mom even makes me try to find you but we need you back at the tribe!"

"Bye Jack." She challenged her brother, who only got more aggravated and began chasing after her.

As Nina was running in the woods she stopped, felt strange she didn't know why but it was almost as a… force was pulling her, forcing her to walk in a direction. She called for Jack but nobody answered. She was lost. Then she realized, she heard scary stories about the witches who lived near these woods. She sat down on a log and started crying but then she heard and enchanting, no, a bewitching sound that made her forget all troubles and go to where she heard the sounds.

"Come my little children. I'll take you away… Come my little chil-dren. To my magical wistful place." The song, sung in a soft and sweet sounding voice entranced Nina and forced her to follow. But the voice singing the song was none other than the voice of Abigail Holloway.

Jack had been looking for a while until he finally saw… his sister! His sister in a… trance and walking up to the witches house! This was bad. The storys of the children who got sucked into the house were frightening. The tale went Jane Holloway, would make a potion. Then feed it to the bewitched child and the three witches would suck the child's soil out of their body and causing them to die. And Jack could not let that happen to Nina. He ran to the house as fast as he could run.

Once he arrived at the house, he burst into the front door.

"Oh… Jack Knightly and his sister… Nina Knightly. Sit right down, were almost done with your sister." Jane laughed at the look of dismay on Jack's face when he saw his sister- completely dead! When he was supposed to be looking after her! Those witches would pay!

"You old, ugly hags killed my sister!" He yelled. He knocked over the caldron of the witches potion. As two sisters gasped.

"My beautiful potion!" Patricia exclaimed and ran over to it.

"You're just a mere boy!" Jane exclaimed, "Abby, my dear, would you sing for this young gentlemen?" Jane looked at Abigail who they nick named Abby.

"Certainly," Abby replied and started her deathly song, as Jack tried not to listen.

But then Jack got all woozy feeling and he was about to go under the enchantment himself when he shook himself out of it. He had to fight it… as hard as he could he had to fight the need to go under Abby's enchantment just so they could drain his soul too. The last thing Jack saw was a book… the legendary book!The one that Jane used to cast all of her spells. Jane grabbed the book and flipped threw pages. Everything came a blur, as he listned, " dreams and forever. Come my little children… I'll keep you safe. To a place with no troubles a place truly magical.-"

All of a sudden the singing stopped. And Jack stumbled backwards but caught himself. There was a banging on the witches door! "Open up, this is all of the town's people."

"Shoot!" Jane exclaimed, "Patty go outside and stall them, Abby go too. And I'll take care of this disgusting boy!"

Jack was barley conscious to register what was exactly happening. He felt so… weak! He could barley stand, Abby's spell really did him in! He staggered but soon felt himself being lifted!

"You called your people over to kill us didn't you! You led them here didn't you!" Jane hissed. Although Jack seriously did not know what she was talking about! He did not lead anyone to the house! "Well now you'll pay! I'm turning you into a saber toothed tiger cub… a cub that can not die and will live forever! You'll live with the guilt of the fact that your sister died thanks to your carelessness of you not paying attention to where she was going. You'll live forever as a tiger! Never seeing your family again!"

The next thing Jack knew was he woke up with a tail, short, furry legs and golden orange fur!

As for the Holloway sisters…

That night they were burned at the stake at midnight. But before they got burned, Jane cast a spell, the next one to light the Holloway candle, would bring the Holloway's back to life. But it would only be permanent if the Holloway's drained enough souls. And that Halloween the curse was born.
