Witch's Hut (Abilene)

Abby felt the frog smack into her rear leg, the snap of bone deepening the sense of dread she carried. She stumbled away, her limb struggling to carry her weight. Had the amphibian broken it? The pain felt like a second impact, and she cried out. Yep, definitely broken. The girl staggered, tears streaming from her face, mingling with the blood from her torn ear. She needed out.

The witch appeared, and Abby promptly collapsed in its presence. She didn’t know what it was. She didn’t know where she was. She just wanted to leave.

She met the crone’s accursed gaze. “I-I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have come here.” She blubbered. “You can do what you want with me, just please let me go home. I want to see the sheep again. I want to see the flowers again. I don’t want to die here.”
