The Blood Moon Sabbath was underway as Muriel stood with her witches as Gretel was stood with Charylisabella and Hansel. Jude stood with his warlocks as the witches and warlocks stood together.
Then out of nowhere as there wasn't any wind the fires blew out as Muriel went to get Charylisabella to keep her close as a creepy chant was heard.
'Whats that?' Muriel asked as she kept Charylisabella close to her.
The silent movement of cloaked witches came onto the mountains as Gretel had her arm around Muriel's waist.
'Quick come with me.' She said leading them back into the lair. 'Wait here. My brother will come for you when it's safe to do so.'
'Gretel no offence to the others but you let them all die first ok?' Muriel asked as Gretel laughed.
'You're so mean.' She said as they laughed before kissing as Gretel kissed the back of Charylisabella's head.
'Witch Hunter you're needed.' The Horned Witch said as Gretel went to join them.
'This is where we make our stand.' Jude said to them. 'Clear lines of sight on all sides.' The witches advanced as Jude spoke again. 'Charylisabella at all costs.' He said as he looked at them. 'Protect the girl!' He said as everyone drew their wands as Hansel and Gretel drew their weapons.'
The battle raged on as Muriel was sat in her room in the lair with Charylisabella close to her as she was trying to keep her calm as it was clear she was getting stressed.
The battle was almost over as Muriel was sat with her back to the bed when she heard someone's voice in the lair.
Wakey wakey
Muriel gasped in horror at the white goo spreading across the floor of her room as some dripped down the front of her dress as she was left holding onto the blanket.
'Gretel?' Muriel asked looking at the blanket in horror. 'GRETEL! GRETEL!' She screamed as she could feel the tears coming.
'Muriel, she's not real.' Augustus said running onto the mountains. 'Bella she's a flesh duplicate. Muriel!' He yelled running into the lair as he looked around.
'Yeah we gathered.' Gretel said bitterly.
Muriel was sat on her log chair as the Red-haired Witch was seen comforting her as Augustus came to see her as he had his head lowered. Muriel turned to look at him as she was back in human form.
'So they took her anyway.' Muriel said as she was clearly fighting back tears as she continued. 'All of this was for nothing.'
'I am so sorry.' He said as he looked at her.
'Muriel it's not his fault.' Hansel said as Muriel looked at him.
'I know.' Muriel said as Gretel came to comfort her as Muriel was seen crying on her shoulder as Augustus watched helplessly.
