CHAPTER 6: HAPPINESS AND ANGER ABROAD
The witches are back...the witches are back...
That was all Louisa Binx could think about. She could not believe that Max could do such a thing to them. She would love to know what had possessed Max to light the candle. Thackary seemed ready to pull a fast one on Max, but Louisa said:
"Let's hide before they see us. I'm sure they'll know we're here, anyways."
Max, Dani, Allison, Marissa, and Eddie all hid where they could. Thackary and Louisa stood as stiffly as possible when the door opened wide. Winifred, Mary, and Sarah Sanderson stared at the twins with fright. "Who dost thou think thee are?"
"We are Louisa and Thackary Binx," said Louisa in a smart tone. "We're here alone. No one else is with us."
While Louisa spoke, Allison and Dani and Marissa dashed out the door. Winifred glanced after them, but shook her head. "Must've been my imagination running away with me again."
Max and Eddie stood up and edged toward the door, but before they could manage an escape, Mary spotted them. "Boys!" said Sarah. Louisa stopped her, though, by saying:
"Listen here, Miss Sarah Prostitute, thou cannot play with my friend! He's got to leave to be with his sister at home."
Max looked at Louisa with awe after she said that he was her friend. She kept her eyes on Sarah, though. She didn't want to give Max any ideas. Eddie and Max ran out the door while Louisa and Thackary kept the sisters distracted by talking.
"Prostitute?" asked Sarah in a hurt voice.
"What dost thou think thee are, calling my sister Sarah a prostitute?" asked Mary.
"A normal human being," Thackary answered for Louisa. Louisa nodded. Whispering to Louisa, Thackary said: "I'll never forgive Max for this! I can't believe he lit the Black falme candle!"
Louisa hissed back: "I can't believe he did that either, but we have to forgive him. We need to stick together."
After Thackary and Louisa exchanged those words, they made a run for it out the door. Looking back, they spotted the sisters do a little dance in celebration of their possibly long life. "Zach, Louie, over here!" Allison called.
As soon as the twins reached Allison and the others, Thackary turned to Max and said:
"Listen here, you have made life hard for Louisa and me once again. We want to meet our sister again, but not like this."
"Thackary...please! Max didn't know!" Allison said. Louisa turned to Allison. She knew why Allison was sticking up for Max. Allison liked Max as more than a friend. She knew that one day they would get together. However, with the Sanderon Sisters alive again, that possibility was TOAST.
"Thackary...leave them alone. Max didn't know what he was doing. You know...I don't think he even believes in the legend's actuality. I think he wants to go home with Dani and Allison and have the witches go after us...to see Eddie and Marissa get eaten alive by the witches' cruelty..." Louisa said. She knew exactly what she was trying to do.
Max caved in. "Thackary and Louisa, I am so sorry. I wish I could make it up to you both somehow? Can you forgive me?"
Louisa wanted right away to say yes, but she felt she had to wait for her brother's opinion. Thackary finally nodded at Max. Louisa nodded, too, for fear of Thackary's wrath and because she had forgiven him right before he even apologized.

A/N: I'm so sorry for posting this so late. I was busy with schoolwork and stuff, so the only time I could do this was, well, right now. I will post the next chapter as soon as possible.
