The long awaited chapter is here!!!!
Two Worlds (Part Three)
By 2 months, Eli had given up. He went to the other world one last time. Suddenly Emma came running to the lake breathless, cries of "KILL The WITCH!" could be heard in the distance.
"Please take me to your world! Let me be free of these people, because I can use magic they want to kill me. Help me please! I don't want to die!" she begged Eli.
"I have a plan, but you have to let them catch you." Eli said, before explaining his plan.
Eli ducked under water as people came running into the clearing. Emma stood at the water edge staring at them. She slowly walked towards them and began to speak "I understand I've been caught, I know I can't escape. May I request one thing?"
"Why should we listen to you? You're just a filthy witch and have been tainting our town with darkness." One of the people said spitting at her.
"It's just that I know you're going to kill me anyway. I'd like to request my death sentence." she said quietly.
"Well you're right about that, might as well let you have one last thing as you are a child." Another person in the crowd said. This time it was a woman with similar features to Emma.
"She must be her mother," Eli thought as he watched what was happening, "How cruel for a mother to sentence her own daughter to death, just because she was more than all the people in the town."
The people of the town decided to let Emma choose where she would die at.
"I'd like to die in this lake, it's been where I spent my last days at, where I would like to forever remain" Emma said all of this so seriously that you would think she was actually planning on dying.
The supposed leader of the group granted her last wish, after consulting everyone again. He sent for a barrel, rope, and rocks, in order to drown Emma. Once all of these thing were here, the people filled the barrels with rocks then tied her to the barrel with he rope. Before they threw her into the lake, the woman from before began to cry, turning into the shoulder of the man who seemed to lead the rest of the people.
As he comforted her, he ordered the strongest men to throw her in. Emma went flying through the air before landing in the water with a splash. Eli watched the people as they immediately left the clearing. Once the last person left he dived to the bottom of the lake and freed emma from her bindings. He grabbed her hand and as her legs turned into a tail, he led her through the tunnel and up the well.
In the house at the top of the tree is where they live, still young, but also still with the tree. Telling stories and waiting, waiting for the right time to visit the top again. The End.
