Trapped in the Coven Chapter 4

"Zombies!?" Amy shouted as she peeked out of her window blinds. The blinds ruffled as she let go of them.

"Episode 5." Kate said. She lifted her hand up with her fingers separated. She was sitting on the floor reading a spell book.

Amy walked across their room. "We should help them." She opened the door and walked out.

Kate turned her head to where Amy left. Her long hair twirled over her shoulder. She sighed and got up.

Down the stairs, at the back entrance, Delphine opened the door to a zombie at their front porch. The zombie entered their kitchen.

"Delphine no!" Queenie shouted.

"I think they're harmless." Zoe said. "They're just walking around."

"Surrounding the house." Amy said as she walked into the kitchen. "Get that zombie out."

"She's my daughter." Delphine said.

"Your daughter died two centuries ago." Kate said. She stood in the arch way.

The zombie in their kitchen started to attack Delphine. The zombie swung at Delphine and hit her. Amy and Zoe pushed the zombie out of their house and locked the door.
Kate looked across the room and saw Nan and Luke Ramsey were in the kitchen too. "Oh Hey." Kate said to them.

Luke R. sighed before he spoke. "This is ridiculous. They need to leave." He ran out the door.

"Poor little mortal. Has no idea they're real." Kate said aloud.

Nan ran after him. "Luke wait."

Luke R. yelled at the zombies, still thinking they were trick or treaters. Then the zombie began to attack. They sliced Luke R's shoulder badly.

Nan helped Luke R stand up and they slowly walked back to house. Zombies stood in their way. "Help!" Nan called.

Amy was outside, using a chair to push the zombies off their front porch. "I'm trying to clear a path."

"We're not trained for this sort of thing." Zoe said. "Ugh, where's Cordelia when you need her?" Amy said.

"Still in the hospital with Fiona." Kate said. She stepped out of the house. Kate lifted her hands outward and opened her hands. She made a claw shape with her hands and the ground rumbled. Her eyes grew dark and focused.

The grass on the lawn grew and linked together, forming vines. These vines wrapped around the zombies, holding them off.

The vines broke off just as Nan and Luke passed the zombies. The zombies were stronger than the vines. The vines ripped and pulled apart.

The witches all looked at Kate, confused.

Nan rushed Luke R inside and Zoe quickly shut the door and locked it.

"Where did you learn that?" Queenie asked Kate.

"Bigger issue here." Amy said, referring to the injured Luke R.

"We need to get him to a hospital." Nan pleaded.

"How? Those zombies will kill us on sight," Zoe said.

"That vine-y thing Kate did only stalled them." Queenie said. "I won't be enough time to reach the car."

"I think there's some tools in the shed." Zoe said.

"Yeah, like a chainsaw." Amy said. She clasped her hands together.

Kate looked over at Amy and rolled her eyes. "You're getting a little too excited over this." Kate said.

"What? They're dead." Amy said. "Now come on. Luke R will die if we don't get him some help."

Kate paused for a moment. "I forget how he gets saved. It's been years since I've seen this show. I only remember certain parts of the season."

"We're not going to do nothing. Now let's run out there and slaughter some undead." Amy said enthusiastically. She held her hand out.

Kate looked at Amy's hand and half-heartedly accepted it.

Amy led the way outside of the house. The other witches soon followed. Amy told Zoey, "run to the greenhouse and get the chainsaw. We'll hold them off until then."

Queenie attempted to use her powers on them but stabbing the undead didn't work.

Amy ran from side to side distracting a few of the zombies.

Kate ran back inside to grab their spell-book from their room. She slid down the railing to get downstairs faster. Kate hopped out of the door and landed at the top of the porch. She opened up the spell book and began reading random spell and incantations.

Zoe came out of the greenhouse carrying the chainsaw. She sliced a few zombies in half. Before she could dismember the last of the zombies, the chainsaw ran out of gas.

"Oh I forgot that happened." Amy whispered.

Zoe quickly backed up from the remaining zombies and started to cast a spell.

Amy walked over to her and helped her with the spell, defeating the zombies.


The Supreme, Fiona, returned the next day following the zombie attack. She heard about their night and thanked Zoe for protecting the coven.
At the breakfast table, the witches all ate some pancakes made by Delphine.

"Zoe's actions aren't the only thing we should be talking about." Nan said.

"Aw." Amy said. "Well I did help with the spell, but it was Zoe's idea. Her quick thinking."

"Actually I was talking about Kate." Nan said.

Kate put her fork down on her plate and looked at everyone.

"Your plant power." Queenie said.

"It was unlike anything we've seen before." Zoe said.

"She made vines come out of the ground and stall the zombies long enough for me to get Luke inside the house." Nan said.

Fiona looked at Kate, very interested. She made the shape of an L with her hand and rested her head on it. Her arm rested on the table. "Chlorokenisis."

"What?" Kate asked.

"That's what your power is called. The control of plant life. Not a common gift." Fiona said.

Kate glanced at Fiona and finished her breakfast quietly.


Later that day, the council returned and Mertyl was found guilty of blinding Cordelia. Mertyl was burned alive in an open area with all the witches to witness. Amy closed her eyes during the event. Kate looked away.
