The first day I drove us to Kansas City before we stopped. We only stopped because we didn't want to be driving all day. We got a hotel room near a thrift shop.
"So what's the plan?" Anubis asked me once we got our stuff inside the hotel. To be honest I didn't really have a plan. I had to think of something to tell him.
"Look through your stuff and find stuff we can sell." I said as I started to rummage through my stuff. I found six necklaces... I was going to keep one. I found some of my clothes I would wear around my family. I found tons of other stuff and so did he. We walked to the thrift shop and started to bargain prices on what we would sell for. We got about $225 for my necklaces and $100 for our other stuff. We walked back to the hotel and started to settle down for bed. We paid for the cheapest room possible so I was sleeping on the floor. I laid out the comforter from the hotel bed and fell asleep. In my dream I saw my Grandmama she was about my age and it looked like she was in trouble. Why were those men hurting her?!
"We know you are a witch so start talking!" One of the men yelled, my grandmama shook her head. The man slapped her she fell to her knees.
"Stop it! She's not a witch!' I scream. Did they not hear me? I walk to the middle of the room. They can't even see me.
"I didn't do it!" My grandmama screamed in pain. What's happening?!
"Everyone in town knows you killed him." Another man said. Kicking her so that she was lying down.
"I didn't murder him!" She protest.
"I saw you using magic... BURN HER AT THE STAKE! THE WITCH MUST DIE!" A man in the corner of the room said. They pull her up so they can tie her hands behind her back. They toss her out on the street where everyone starts taunting her. They tie her to the stake.
"Annabeth Gardner is a witch! Her punishment will be burning at the stake!" A man yelled to the crowd of people who had gathered. Shouts of encouragement came from the crowd. They lit the stake on fire and as it touched her skin she hissed in pain.
"You will all die because of what you are doing!" She screamed. The townspeople laughed at her. She said a spell that I didn't recognize from my book. As soon as she said the spell the fire hurting her stopped and she broke free from the stake. People started screaming in pain and burning from the inside out. As she walked away from the town her blond hair flew behind her. I woke up with a start to find Anubis dressed and ready for the day.
"Good morning sunshine." Anubis said seeing that I was awake. I walk to the bathroom and get ready for the day.
"What are we going to do for breakfast?" Anubis asks once I start packing my bag.
"We have plenty we can eat on the road." I answer cleaning the room up. Anubis starts to help me and in two minutes we have turned in the key and are on our way. We eat granola bars and stop twice once at a gas station and once at a library. At the library I check out a book on Annabeth Gardner. On the way to I read about her being accused of witchcraft and a town burning around the time of her disappearance. My grandmama was a witch.
