Summary: In the old town of Gravesfield, Philip had an older sibling. Charlotte Wittebane.
Phillip laid back on his bed, exhausted from a hard day of work. He glanced over to his sisters bed. She wasn't back yet, but she would be soon.
She was supposed to be out with their mom at the market, but Phillip had a hunch that wasn't what was going to happen.
Just as expected, the bedroom window opened up and Charlotte climbed inside.
She was wearing her disguise. Basically just some clothes their mother sewed for when Phillip got older, but they allowed Charlotte to go around unnoticed.
"What's up Char?" Phillip asked sitting up.
"Oh my god you would not believe the things I learned from Old Martin. Apparently all the men in town get to go on a full on witch hunt this Sunday after church!" She excitedly said, sliding off her muddy shoes and pulling of the hat she used to hide her long hair.
"Seriously? That sound awesome! I can't wait!"
Charlotte started to look a bit saddened.
"Why can't you come too?" Phillip asked, recognizing the look.
"Mom will notice if I'm gone. And they'll do a headcount when they go so they'll know if a witch took anyone and how can an extra guy be explained away?"
Phillip sat and thought as Charlotte ducked behind a changing curtain she had strung up to get back into her regular clothes.
"What if you join after the headcount and sneak off before they do another at the end?" He suggested.
"You think that would work?" Charlotte asked, stepping out from the curtain and now in her regular dress.
"You forgot to take off the bandages." Phillip pointed out, noticing her chest hardly filled out the dress specifically tailored to her size.
"Oh. Ummm. I was thinking...what if I left them on? I won't sleep in them but I kinda like my guy chest."
Phillip got a confused look on his face.
"Sis, do you like being a man?" He slowly asked.
"What! No. Of course not." Charlotte nervously denied, "What on earth would give you that idea, Pip? I just want to increase my endurance with wearing it in case there's a day I can spend lots of time in disguise."
Phillip narrowed his eyes at his sister but decided to not press further.
The day wound down and it wasn't long before Phillip and Charlotte's mother called them into the kitchen for dinner.
"Fish and cornbread? Thanks mom!" Phillip excitedly said, scooping lots of food onto his plate.
"What's got you so hungry, Pip?" His mom chuckled.
"Obviously he heard about the witch hunt!" His dad happily bellowed, coming inside from his days work.
"Yeah! Char told me!"
