That night samara was (after much kicking and nasty words) brought out to the corn field where her parents were to be sacrificed then she was to be baptised. There were torches everywhere and her adopted parents were hanging from crosses


"I know this must be horrible but just don't look at them" Rachel tried to comfort samara, it was unnecessary.

"what will they do to them" samara whispered staring at her father more than her mother.

"they must go to him"

"To who"

"he who walks behind the rows"

After the ceremony started and her parent were beginning to go to him, samara did something that no one else did. She started to laugh.

"is that girl insane" Malachai asked

"she may be in shock" Rachel whispered

Beween giggles samara got out " haha….daddy are you having fun……do you know how much ….I hate you……"

There was murmuring through the crowd of children but soon samara regained her composure and her baptism began

"he who walks behind the rows will show us her name in blood

Suddenly on the wall in bloos was written samara.

"huh" Isaac said dumbly samara smiled no one would guess that it was her that did that.

"We-well then it looks like your name is right samara" Isaac stuttered.

"can I go back to my room now"

"alright but you must come to my home to get the rules of our town and your new job.
