DANI SPRINTED OVER TO HER MAX, WORRIED ABOUT HER BROTHER. He was lying on his back next to Wendy, who was sitting up, staring in shock at the spot where the witch had burst into a cloud of green dust. Freddy reached down to grab her hand which she gladly accepted as he pulled her too her feet.
"Max! Max? Are you okay?" the young blonde girl asked her brother, and the boy groaned as he rolled over to look at her. A smile appeared on his face as soon as his eyes fell to his sister.
He propped himself up on his elbow as Dani did the same so that they were eye level and staring at each other. He patted his chest and stomach as if making sure that he wasn't missing any body parts. "Yeah, I think so."
"You saved my life," she chuckled out happily, like she wasn't so sure that he would have done that before that hell of a night.
"Well, I had to," he shrugged like it was no big deal that he had downed that potion so that the witches could not steal her youth. It was kind of big deal. "I'm your big brother."
She grinned back at him. "I love you, jerkface."
"I love you too," he told the girl before hopping up and picking her up with him. They said goodbye to Billy and stuck him back in his hole before piling a ton of dirt back on top of him so that he could rest in peace.
That was when Dani noticed that Ninx was missing. She looked around frantically in search for him. "Where's Binx? Binx? Binx. Binx!" She finally spotted him lying motionless in the brush and froze as tears came to her eyes.
"He's gone. He's gone, Dani," Wendy sighed, and she placed her hand on the Dennison girl's shoulder, pulling her back into her chest softly in an attempt to comfort her. Dani just shrugged her off and crouched down to look at the cat.
"But he can't die, remember?" she reminded them with a trembling voice, and she reached down and shook the cat gently in an attempt to get him to open his eyes and get up. "Wake up, Binx! Binx, wake up! Like last time!"
A voice coming from behind them caused them all to whip around. There was a boy standing there in clothing that seemed a lot older than modern. "Dani. Come on. Please don't be sad for me."
