The next morning you sit in Zoe's room with the brunette herself as well as Queenie and Nan, Zoe sits at her computer, you look with her, intently, as the others fidget nervously on her bed, not knowing what the two of you were to find.

Zoe: Is there anyone that doesn't have a fan site? 

Nan: I don't

Y/N: Yeah me neither

Queenie: Did you find anything new?

Zoe: The Axeman killed eight people, scared the crap outta the city

You read on.

Y/N: And he never got caught

Zoe: Listen to this, 'If women will not dance to the sound of my axe, I shall gladly make them dance with the other'

Y/N: Right yeah, axe is another name for a saxophone

Queenie: So he chopped women up cos they wouldn't be his groupies?

Y/N: Plus men who protected them

Zoe: We never got to ask about Madison

Queenie: Good, a spirit will say anything to get released, they mess with you

Zoe: Is that why he said we killed him?

Nan: No, he thinks we're them

You look to Nan to see her gazing at a photo of a past coven, you stand and take it from her to inspect it.

Y/N: Class of 1919, same year The Axeman disappeared

Queenie reads from a diary of one of the girls.

Queenie: 'This jazz killer has killed long enough, this city is done trembling, tonight it ends'

Zoe: Witches killed The Axeman

The three of them smile at each other with pride, you however think about Madison, the whole reason you found this guy in the first place.

Y/N:If there's even a chance he knows where Madison is, we gotta make contact

Zoe looks to you, a glimmer in her eye and a smile on her lips, you knew she was on your side.

Queenie: No! No, I'm not helping you guys release The Axeman

Zoe: Nan?

Nan: I'm out

Zoe: You left your lives and came all the way across the country just to puss out now? If this is all the fight we have left in us at the end of our race, witches deserve to die. We'll do this alone

Zoe storms out of the room, you awkwardly follow out after her, watching as she returns the spirit board to the same state as last night, you both sit face to face with it in between you, a finger each resting on it's top. 

Zoe: Where's Madison? Tell us and we'll give you what you want. I know what you like, we can give it to you. Release. Don't you want release?

You look to her, drowning in nerves, this was dangerous, but it had to be done. Suddenly the glass begins to slide.

The attic. Zoe rushes to her feet, grabbing a flashlight out of a kitchen drawer, you both go up to the attic, you pull down the latch which reveals the stairs into darkness. You open the door and what you find horrifies you. The dark room was filled to the brim with dolls, many seated around a table like some demented tea party, the revolting odour was what transfixed you however, it was pungent, almost nuclear in it's toxicity. It clogged your nostrils and you knew immediately what it was, and that thing terrified you, rotting flesh.

Y/N: What the fuck is this place?

Zoe: I-I don't know, what is all this? What the hell is that smell?

The two of you search around the room, horrified as you investigated the dolls and cutlery and china around you, you then laid eyes on a case, on it's top were teddy bears and more of that creepy kid bullshit.

Y/N: Hey Zoe, check this out

She flashes her light toward it and the two of you approach it tentatively. You tossed the shit on top away, you breathed deeply and shut your eyes, hesitant to open the case, instead Zoe throws it open, you look down and your biggest nightmares come to fruition, Madison, dead and decaying.

Y/N: Fuck! Holy shit, what the hell?! Madison...

 Tears stream down your face immediately, Zoe gasps in horror before muffled screams escape her mouth, you turn to see Spalding grabbing her from behind. 

Y/N: You sick motherfucker! What did you do?!

You run at him and drag him off the brunette, you wrestle him to the ground and lay punches into his body blindly, rage fuelling you. Suddenly Zoe tries to pull you off him.

Zoe: Y/N, you're gonna kill him!

Y/N: Exactly so let me fucking go

Zoe: No think about it Y/N we need him! He can help us bring Madison back

Her words rang through you as you allowed her to drag you off him. You climb to you feet, breath heavy and blood pulsating with anger.

Y/N: Tie the bastard up

You look the perverted butler in his eyes.

Y/N: You're a dead man, bitch, all in good time
