There once lived a couple, who lived in a small house, in a small village, in the middle of the woods. No one lived near them, except for one, a witch. Now, she wasn't any ordinary witch, she wasn't mean, she wasn't ugly, she didn't even cast evil spells. She only needed to show her face, and people fall madly in love. With her special gift, she uses the men to get what she wanted. After she's done using them, they just simply disappear.

The witch lived by herself making it lonely most of the time for her. Like I said, she wasn't ugly, she was actually very beautiful, on the outside at least. Her hair was long and dark.

Every morning she would go outside and tend to her radish garden just right if her house. Her radishes were the reddest in the whole village, they were irresistible to the human eye, especially to a pregnant woman.

This was just bad news for the couple that lived right next door, for the wife was expecting a child. Every waking moment she would look out her window and stare in awe at her garden. She knew that she wasn't to take any, but one day she had to have some.

"Rob!" She yelled from her living room window that faced the which's garden.

"Yes honey?" The husband walked into the room to see his wife sitting in her rocking chair facing the window like every other day.

"I need you to steal some of those radishes." She pointed outside.

"Sharri, you know we can't do that, she'll cast a spell on us." He tired to reason with her.

"No! I'm pregnant and I'm hungry! I'm sick and tired of her mocking me with those red radishes, I want one now!" She threw a fit, leaving Rob in a tight situation. Should he please his wife by getting her one of the witch's radishes, and go through what ever punishment comes there way. Or let her be unhappy and angry.

Rob, a mam who always wanted to please his wife and keep her happy, set out to steal a radish. It was just mere of noon when he jumped his fence, and climbed over to his neighbors.

He knew the witch was in the village around this time so he had time to gather what he needed. Just as he was pulling out a single radish, the sky turned a dark color, and wind started to blow leaves everywhere. Out of nowhere the witch pooped out from behind the man.

"What do you think you're doing with my radishes." The witch's voice boomed.

"I-I'm sorry," the man fell to his knees. "My wife is pregnant and s-she wanted a radish, I told her we shouldn't, b-but she insisted she needed one."

"Get up." The skies started to clear up and the wind was settling down. "What's your name?"

"R-Rob Zombie. My wife's name is Sharri moon."

"Go on, take the radish." She eyed him as he bent down to pick it up.

"Thank you, miss.. Uh,"

"Jessica, call me Jessica." She smiled a small sinister smile.

"Thank you." Just as he turned his back she grabbed him by his shirt and pulled him back.

"Under one condition of course. If, and when your wife gives birth to a baby boy, you must give him to me, as a payment of stealing my radishes, and braking into my garden."

The man ran home to tell his wife everything that happened. She didn't even react to what he was saying. She was hypnotized by the radish that she'd do anything for it at this point.

Months later the wife gave birth to a healthy baby boy, and as discussed the man brought over the boy to the which's house. Just as the man left the front yard of the house, everything behind him banished into thin air.
