moment before Emily hopped up from the hole and landed down on the ground, the witch having a blank expression on her face while her eyes had an empty stare to them as she just looked past the wagon.
“Such an unfortunate, and fortunate, setback,” Emily mused with a smirk.
Her eyestalks turned to the slaughtered horse before the witch showed a sympathetic smile for a moment while shaking her head slowly.
“Tsk tsk, I rather liked that horse too. I was going to keep it after we got to the city and all the humans were dead,” she said with a small shrug before her eyestalks then looked to the wagon, the door to the vehicle slowly opening again with the breeze while the smell of blood was easily detected in the air.
“I knew I should have raped that man when we were out here. Dammit, such a waste of a perfectly good seed provider,” Emily cursed before waving her wand sharply at the wagon. In an instant the entire carriage broke apart and shattered back onto the grass next to the trail, the debris and remains of the humans crashing down onto the ground before the witch waved her wand up. As the remnants of the carriage collapsed down amongst the grass with a small dust cloud a pink carrying pouch flew up into the air, with Emily smiling bitterly as the bag hovered down towards her.
“Hey, here’s a good idea,” she scoffed at herself. “Let’s hide the focuser crystal in case those two new travelers decide to steal it. Yeah, that was almost as smart as letting those two things aboard my ride in the first place. I just had to focus on that damned apple pie of theirs, always getting distracted by tasty looking desserts. Stupid witch!”
With a grunt she waved her wand to the side, with the pink bag ripping apart and fluttering away in tatters while a ring with a yellow rounded gemstone floated in place. Emily smirked as her eyestalks looked at it, the trinket then gliding over and sliding onto the girl’s middle finger of her other hand as she held it out. She giggled with a dark tone as her two rings glowed softly, the area around her turning darker briefly as the ground under her started to dry up and turn black.
“There we go,” she chuckled. “As good as it feels to be prepared with leaving one behind, it always put a smile on my face and a warm glow in my heart to have my lovelies with me like this.” With a happy sigh she turned to the nearby trees while her eyestalks looked to them with their unblinking eyes.
“And when I find those two accursed man-eaters that tried to eat me, I’m going to be smiling even more,” she said coldly before waving her wand towards the trees. A black swirl of sludge and rotting dirt formed around a tree’s base before washing against the trunk and clinging to it, with the tall tree groaning and wavering slightly as the slime holding onto it started to sizzle and burn through the wood. The tree tilted slightly before sinking down and melting in the goop while two large hands made of sludge reached up and grabbed hold of it, the limbs appearing to pull the melting lumber down into the pile of muck and themselves that dissolved it with a loud hiss while exuding smoke. Emily laughed as the tree was destroyed before she held a hand to her cheek and blushed while looking down timidly.
“Still, this worked out so well,” she mused to herself. “I never thought I would have found someone like Luna in this world, I’m so lucky I have her all to myself now. I suppose I’ll have to bid a thank you to those man-eaters before I melt the flesh from their bones.” After a moment of getting lost in her daydream the girl then stretched out her arms with a happy sigh.
“I guess this is a much better turn of events, I’m back in full control of my power and I have a beautiful butterfly all to myself. I’m so happy.”
The witch then started skipping playfully towards the portal she made in the ground before suddenly stopping in her tracks, her gaze still facing forward
