Part 17
Will's POV
The doctor's young wife had no idea what trouble she was causing. Thinking she was above the power both Angelica and my mother had. Nothing nor anyone would be able to save her once they caught her alone. It made me sad to think about Abigail like that, she was pure and good. Not sure why I had these feelings but I have made sure my mother talked Angelica down since now for some reason Angelica no longer had control over the doctor. That of course meant that either the doctor was a witch or Abigail was one.
"You are thinking about her aren't you?" mother asks me as she walks up to me.
"Hard not to think of her, after all she has the looks of a goddess." I reply not looking to her.
"Many people said that of Madeusa and look what happened to her?" mother says trying to make me come back to the present.
No matter what mother said though, my dreams were plagued by Abigail. Even when mother tried to bond Angelica and I together. Our bond wouldn't take and I was happy that it wasn't. There was something different about Abigail and I wanted to know exactly what that was.
"Come the war is about to begin and something tells me this will change you prospective of Abigail." mother says as she pulls me to the center of the town.
There tied up is the doctor and Amber. Obviously this was all part of Angelica's plan. Where was Abigail though? Just as the thought left my head Angelica went forward picking up the doctor and looking into his eyes trying to regain her control over him. Nothing seemed to happen though all he did was smile at her. That just seemed to make her even more angry.
"These are the killers, Amber was dressed as the woman with the mask who threatened to kill Ezekiel if he did not say he was lying to us! We shall burn her and her accomplice the good doctor of our beloved town!" Angelica yelled out to the hungry crowd.
The town erupted with loud screams of anguish and hate at the two people before them. Angelica motioned for the Magistrate to take the to the gallows but then we heard a loud yell from the crowd. This is when the action would began.
"WITCH!" a loud female voice called out from the crowd.
The crowd separated themselves from the person. It was a woman with long red hair, she wore black pants a red corset and a small jacket. Her mask though was the one that Angelica had accused Amber of wearing and now she was caught in a lie.
"WITCH!" the woman calls out again an clearly points to Angelica. "Have none of the good people of Salem realized how she has controlled the lot of you?!"
"Listen to her not! She does not even reveal her face to you!" Angelica cries out.
"Nor do you! For the true face you wear is one of decay!" the masked woman yells out the truth.
"You have no proof!" Angelica screams clearly scared at this point.
The masked woman comes up to Angelica and gets in her face. Both of them look like they are going to have a fist fight but that doesn't happen. Instead I can see the mask woman whispering something.
"Element by which I cry use my force upon this lie, show her now to all who see the true witch that she may be." the masked woman says.
There before all of our eyes, Angelica tries to stay calm and confident and dares to smile at the masked woman. Within a few moments though her beauty begins to fade. Her true form is shown and she looks like a drowned woman who had been dead for many years. Screams erupted from her as she looked around as the people of Salem screamed in horror.
"Reveal yourself, you a but a witch as well." Angelica bits out to the woman.
The masked woman takes her mask of revealing herself as Abigail, I knew there was something different about her and I was right. Looking to my mother I see her raise her eye brow at the scene before her. Why would Abigail do this though? Why not join us and lived together forever?
"Abigail...I should have know. What was the price of your soul?" Angelica questions.
"None, My powers were gifted to me to reveal true evil like you." Abigail says as she forces the mask on Angelica. "You need this more than I do."
My mother then makes her move but a moment too late. Amber is already there with a dagger right in my mother's neck. That meant that Amber was in on this as well. How was all this possible though? Turning to flee I am stopped by another man who looks at me as if he came from hell below.
"Cowardly to run away from true justice." the man tells me as he looks to Abigail. "Witch hunter huh?"
Abigail rolls her eyes as she takes the noose from the gallows and puts it around Angelica's neck.
"This won't kill me, not in spirit. I will live on forever with my master!" Angelica yells out to the crowd.
"Yeah...but you didn't get him what he wanted. Doubt you'll be getting a reward." I say as I tighten the noose on her neck. "This is for Emily."
The Magistrate now decides to try and run as well but the doctor stops him. Every one of us was now in the capture and I didn't know how they pulled it off. The man detaining me led me to a noose as well.
"Wait please...tell us how you captured all of us." I ask thinking at least we had the right to know that now.
Abigail looked to Amber, the doctor, and the man holding me and then nodded. Amber took my mother to her noose since apparently a stab in the neck was not enough they were still going to hang her! What horrible people.
Abigail stood before all of us.
"Send everyone to their homes, they won't want to see this." Abigail instructs and the townspeople walk home ashamed of themselves for wanting to see such an act.
