Lance sat with his back to the main fireplace, dragging his gaze across all the younglings sat huddled up in front of him. Some holding each others hands and arms while others tried to sit more bravely.
"And the witches would sneak out on every Halloween night. They'd draw markings into the dirt with their long and sharpen nails. Using the mark to warn other witches away from their meals" Lance spoke with his best story telling voice, casually looking over his shoulder to the flickering flames of the fire as if to check nothing was heading for them.
All the younglings looked around nervously, trying to spot a threat to their home and a few whimpering as they noticed strange shapes drawn into the dirt near the entrance arch. Clinging to their siblings or friends a little tighter, knowing those marking weren't there earlier.
"Their brooms brushing against the leaf's of the trees as they stay flying around and keeping their glowing eyes locked to their most desired prey" Lance told in a dark voice as he ran his fingertips through the air, feeling the chilly air in his palm.
All heads snapping towards the trees around the cliff and below, noticing their branches moving and leaf's blowing without any direct breeze passing them by. All growing more alert and starting to shuffle away from one another, forming smaller groups between themselves.
"Their crackles echoing the night sky as they casted their wicked spells among us all. Slowing our movements enough for them to reach out and.." Lance said in an menacing voice, his eyes warning as his hands started to reach out towards the younglings before him.
None of the younglings noticing or sensing as the creatures slowly creeped and stalked towards them from all different angles. Knowing all their defences were down and not a single human being able to stop them.
"GRAB US!" Lance yelled out like an monster, turning his fingers to look like claws.
Lance crackled as he listened to the startled cries and terrified screams of the younglings as hands from behind the unexpecting younglings all reached out and grab at them. Longer and stronger limbs wrapping around them, dragging them further away from the other younglings.
Crackling ape sounds filling the air as the younglings finally started to realizing who had taken them and finding their parents or older siblings acting as their witches for tonight. Pouts filling some of the more stubborn and pretending to be brave younglings. While the more younger and honest younglings had tears in their eyes and cried out their fear.
