Candy is Dandy
Candy Witch was inside her lair organizing all kinds of tasty treats. There was many kinds of chocolates and other kinds of candies kids loved. For a witch, she kept her lair rather neat and clean and pleasing to the eye for visitors. She was a young witch and not at all unpleasant to look at at all. Several young men had offered to 'help a young woman' manage in life. She had nice blonde hair and a pretty face, her eyes were a deep shade of green and her lips blood red. She looked absolutely beautiful. But underneath that beauty hid a woman of a violent temper. She was wicked and evil but not as bad as Muriel. This didn't mean she wouldn't torture someone she believed offended her in any way.
The Candy Witch's name was unknown but locals called her *Baba Yaga.* Candy Witch heard a knock at the door. Pleasantly she turned to answer it. She was greeted with a gun to her face. "don't, just don't." a handsome man said simply. The Candy Witch feigned surprise. "what have I done to you?" she asked genuinely sounding scared. Gretel looked at her brother confused. This didn't look like no witch she had ever seen. Even Hansel looked uncertain for a moment. Could they lead they had been given was wrong?
"Who are you?" Gretel asked. The Candy Witch smiled inwardly at their uncertainty. "C-Candy. I go by Candy." She said timidly keeping her hands where they could see them. They looked around her house and all they found was candy. Nothing wrong here. "Since when is it a crime to have a house full of candy?" she asked softly. Gretel looked at her. "Since never. Hansel, there's nothing here. Lets go." She replied. Hansel agreed. But before he left entirely he looked at "Candy." "don't do anything 'weird.' He left rather embarrassed. Candy Witch made sure they were out of sight before she flew into one of her famous rages. She trashed the neatly placed candy and shattered glass in a colossus temper tantrum. Then she shoved the broken shards of glass into the candy pieces and threw them out hoping some children would pick them up and eat them. Or anything really.
Candy Witch mounted her broom and flew off to find Muriel. She had to warn her of this Hansel and Gretel. Thankfully Muriel's clearing was not to far away. 3 hours at least. She landed her broom and stalked passed the other witches. Even they knew not to mess with her when she was in one of her moods.
Muriel looked pleased if not surprised that Candy Witch had come to the gathering. Even if she was not invited. Any dark witch was an asset right now. Candy Witch remembered her manners and bowed respectfully to the Grand Dark Witch. She explained what happened and Muriel smiled. "So they suspected but had nothing to prove. Ha. Typical." Candy Witch relaxed. She was glad Muriel was not in one of her moods. Muriel explained that some ingredients would be cooked and then fed to the children by force if needed. Candy Witch made her suggestion. "Why not cook it in my candies? The children would eat it willingly with their normal food once we gather them and hold them in cages whilst we make the final preperations?" Muriel considered this. Yes it would be easier to feed the children the nasty things they were planning if it was hidden in the candy. Muriel nodded her approval.
She glanced towards the Bridge Witch who was now arguing with Horned Witch about something or another. She groaned and rolled her eyes. Bridge Witch was childish it seemed.
