DIARY OF THE WITCH’S PRISONERS

Diary of Anna

Dear Diary,
When I got here, the witch gave me this book said I’d have something to do but I didn’t want to use it till now. I know a secret and that secret is killing me. The only person I can tell is you. The story started when I moved to town and everyone told me not to come here. They told me it was haunted that a witch with fire red hair lived there. I didn’t believe them.
I was selling chocolate for school and I knocked on her door. She answered with a smile and I asked her if she would like some and she said “come in dear i'll get my check book”. I was naive enough to do it. We walked to a room that she said was her office. She said that her check book was there so she walked in and beckoned me with her hand. I walked in and as soon as I did she hit me and through me on the floor. I tried to fight back but i couldn't and i realized what they said was true and those indecipherable words were a spell and they made me paralyzed.
She pulled out a wand and picked me up with a spell, then opened a door. The stairs that were there went down, down, and down. She walked down and I followed while floating in the air. When we finally reached the bottom, she chained just my feet to the wall and said “these chains are unbreakable” then threw a book, a pen, and a lighter at me.
She whispered “the book will give you something to do and the torch will show you everything in the room all you have to do is light it, that is what the lighter is for, the torch is to your left” then she walked out. I scrambled to light the torch and that is when I heard an inhuman growl. I quickly lit the torch and saw the beast that threatened me.
I screamed and screamed until I ran out of breath. I fainted for the first time in my life and the last thing I saw was that beast coming for me. When I woke up it wasn’t there so I opened the book and saw the title “Diary of Bella Claire Jack Nicole Gabriel” but all the names before Gabriel were crossed out so I crossed out Gabriel made the title “Diary of Bella Claire Jack Nicole Gabriel Anna” but I didn’t want to write in it. I've never been one to keep a diary.
I felt so drained I fell asleep instantly. I slept for what felt like hours so when I woke up I was well rested but then I saw him in the corner and he told me what he was and for like the third time in my life I fainted. I woke up dazed and unaware of everything but the blood that surrounded me and the beast smiling at me. I realized the blood is mine and I am dying. The last thing I say to you is trust that everything that is impossible is real.

Sincerely,

Anna
