Chapter 2: The Beldam
The light of the fire place was the only light and the Beldam sat on her chair rapping her nails on the table top. Her long skinny hands picked up a picture of Coraline crumpled it into pieces, she summoned the other father and he waddled into the room. His face pale and chubby, he wearily said
"Beldam, you summoned thee."
"Where is she?" The Beldam asked
The other father waddled out of the room and returned with a crystal ball and handed it to the beldam.
"She's in her room… you'll never get her..." The other father said as the Beldam cut him off
"HUSH. I WILL get her. No matter how long it takes, I need her and her soul." The Beldam screamed
"She is smart and powerful and only the power of the well water in the other world can bring unimaginable power and with that power you can defeat her." The other father sighed
"THE WELL WATER! WHY HAVE I NEVER HEARD OF THIS?!" Screamed the Beldam
The other father bobbed around like an apple in a bucket of water and swished his eyes around in their sockets. But he didn't answer, he just bobbed around like a lost boat at sea and then walked over to a box of coco beetles from Zanzibar. He handed then to the Beldam and picked one up and bit its head of with force, as if it were Coraline's head.
"That silly little girl, I'd rip her eyes out if she were here right now." The beldam growled
She shoved the rest of the coco beetle in her mouth and swallowed and gave an evil grin, then frowned and shot an evil look at the other father.
"How do I get to the other world though, you dumb and ignorant little man." She scowled
"You must get the key." The other father said in a monotone voice
"Well dah! You stupid couch potato, tell me how I get the key!" She yelled impatiently
"You could make another one all you need to do is get some…" the other father said then the Beldam cut him off
"YES! Why didn't I think of that?" she asked happily
"Because your brain is the size of a…" the other father started to say but once again the Beldam stopped him
"HEY! That was a rhetorical question you dumb minded rat! How dare you be so rude?!" She screamed
The beldam grabbed his ear and pulled him out of the room, down the corridor and threw him in the same mirror Coraline had been trapped in.
"Why don't you spend some time thinking about what you've done?" She growled
The Beldam stormed off down the hall and sat down to think of a plan.
