Forbidden Blood

Chapter Two

Agatha walked away so with their hands and mouths duct taped they stood up and got out of the closet, she was mumbling to herself as she got dressed.

"The house is yours, random boy and girl, be sure to tell the vengeance-seekers I said hi." Agatha told them.

"Take me to the Witches' Road!" The boy got his tape from his mouth lose and said. Agatha pause before walking up to them pulling off the tape from the boys mouth.

"Come again?" She asked.

"The Witches' Road. I want you to take me there. Please?" The boy asked.

"The Witches' Road doesn't exist."

"That's a lie." Lilith said after she snapped her fingers to make the tape disappear.

"Am I?" Agatha asked.

"That's just what real witches say to keep the amateurs out. Also, you could do that the entire time." The boy questioned Lilith who just shrugged.

"Back to The Road it will be give you the thing you want most. . . Well if you make it to the end." Lilith changed the subject.

"And I can. I will." The boy said.

"We can." Lilith added. Agatha dropped the tape she still had in her hand and turned to walk away. "The Road is no place for kids.

"I'm 16!"
"I'm 19!" The boy and Lilith said.

"Oh, sorry. Teen." She walked into the living room teen continued to hop after her before Lilith sent her grey magic to his feet and made the tape disappear Lilith helping him balance. "I don't know where you heard about The Road. . . ."

"Books, the Ballads, legend, lore. . . Lily. . ." Teen started to list off.

"But it will kill you."  Agatha finished.

"It didn't kill you." Lilith said.

"Well, I'm exceptional." She said putting on her hat.

"That's my point. Okay, so, confession, I know an egregious amount about you. I've been obsessed since I first read up on your Salem days. One of my favorite 'you' eras." Teen said.

"That's a good one."

"That's why we came here last night.  That's why we saved you from the spell you were under." She begun to smile.

"No. It was my pleasure." Teen said. "Hmm. Well. . .  If you've got the goods tp break a spell cast by the Scarlet Witch why do you need The Road?" She asked siting in one of the chairs. The two sat down across from her.

"I mean, I've studied, don't get me wrong, but that can only take you so far. I wanna blast, to shield, to levitate." Teen said.

"So you want a shortcut?" Agatha asked.

"The Road promises that what's missing awaits you at its end. Power is whaat I'm missing. Sounds like it's what you're missing, too." Teen said.

"Nope. Too risky No time."

"If you wanna run, fine. But these people the Salem Seven they'll kill you. If you think you can outrun them with no magic whatsoever." Lilith said. Agatha was walking away but stepped on something and picked it up opening the locket with two separate locks of hair, she closed it and turned to them. "Who are you two?" She asked them.
