Haunted Flour Mill

Chapter 3

Jose's P.O.V

Ughh , where am I? What happened? Manny? Anyone?

Jose was disgruntled, why couldn't he move, why was everything pitch black around him?
Then the realization hit him . I'm in a chest or something, or ..... no , it couldn't be could it?

Im in a coffin ...

I started panicking, trying to wriggle myself free but I couldn't move, it was like I was tied up except that I wasn't. I just couldn't move . Like there is some sort of spell on me .

I try shouting for help , screaming at the top of my lungs, only to realize that I couldn't speak, the sounds were only in my head .

I am completely paralyzed.

Thoughts start crashing into my mind. What did I do to deserve this? Why me ? Im too young to die!!

Then I hear it , someone is coming, I hear feet shuffling across the floor . Then it happens, I hear the footsteps approach my coffin, then someone, or something open the lid of the coffin .

It's Matilda, or rather , what's left of her . She doesn't say a word, fear shoots through me as she reaches out to touch me .

Then she touches my head and my mind goes black .

You are now my personal slave , you shall do as you are told . "Yes Matilda " I hear myself saying. You shall gather the thorns and gather the flowers, make the days feel like hours, in this task you bring me life , so for my love I can revive .
"Yes Matilda , you're wish is my command ,in the darkness I shall remain for eternal life is what you'll gain.

Then it all went black again. The last thing I remember seeing was Matilda removing her hand from my head . And then I felt it , this overwhelming power taking over my body until I had no control over me, I am being kept prisoner in my own body .

I think Matilda put a spell on me , all I want to do now is to please her , it's like she is controlling my mind.

If Only I had never come here , if only I had listened to Manny .

Suddenly an excruciating amount of pain pierced his brain , almost causing him to black out !
Ahhhhh!whats going on ?

I am in your thoughts now , when you think of disobedience, you will regret it ...
Do as you're told, nothing more.

The next thing I know, my body gets up and goes out the mill , back towards town . Except, it's not me , I have no control. The only thing I hear myself repeating ,

Seven thorns , Seven Flowers
Seven Thorns , Seven Flowers .....
