The village of Kelna

Introduction

Hello everyone who is reading this, this is the 1st story I will be working on. I did this purely out of boredom so don't expect much, I did however try my best making this so I hope you enjoy. Keep in mind English is not my 1st Language so I will probably make tons of mistakes so don't hold it against me.

Chapter 1

A young lady Bela just started working her shift in a small bakery. Dispite being a little damaged with bullets and bombs from war it is still one of the best looking buildings in the whole village. Bela is expecting her best friend Lilith to enter the bakery at any moment as she is a regular. She is pretty poor herself but that doesn't stop her from going to the bakery almost everyday. But today was different. Bela could feel something was weird when Lilith didn't show up, it was already 2 pm, she usually comes around 1 pm so something was definitely off. After Bela's shift she was walking down a very empty street. The streets are usually empty as people don't have time to go for a walk or run when they are busy with their jobs. But still there were always some people walking their dogs or smoking outside so this added to Bela's concerns. She is wondering where everyone suddenly is. Walking past an old church that no one visits anymore she saw some unfamiliar faces having a conversation and holding some kind of documentation. Her curiosity got the best of her so she went ahead as close as she could without being noticed and started listening to their conversation.

Unknown person 1: "What should we do, how will we find her in this whole city?"
Unknown person 2: "What if we go from door to door trying to find her?"
Unknown person 1: "Are you nuts? And to reveal ourelf to the public, what are you, stupid?"
Unknown person 2: "What is your plan then 'captain'? (he said sarcastically)"
Unknown person 1: "Unlike you I am not here to fool around, I think we should go back and discuss thi with everyone first."

As Bela was listening to them she didn't notice a snake going towards her. She screamed in fear and then quickly regreted it. Two people unfortunately noticed and as they were approaching her someone grabbed her just in time. Before she knew it she was running away with the person completely unsure where they were heading to. When they finally stopped she took a look at the person and was stunned as she saw it was a rather familiar girl... It was Loralie, the girl everyone in village saw as a witch and threat. They spread rumors about her. Some of them so awful the kids couldn't even sleep at night. Bela was just standing there silently, forgetting everything that happened before. As soon as she got to her senses she jumped out her arms.

Bela: "Why are you here?"
Loralie: "I was just pasing by and I saw you needed help, what are you dissatisfied? Am I not what you were expecting?"
Bela: "I know all the things you did, don't even try to make up excuses."
Loralie: "Look I don't have time for all this, I saved you, be grateful."
Bela: "In your dreams, you have done so many awful things and I don't trust you. You think I wanna end up like all the kids and men you slaughtered?"
Loralie: "Belive all the rumors you want, I am no witch."
Bela: "I will belive it when you prove it."
Before Loralie could say another word Bela was already gone.
