"Winderbae. Winderbae is your name" Bee called out.

A gust of wind blew and a white woman appeared in front of her.

"So, you guessed my name correct. You may now ask me for one thing. Like a genie if you call But ask not for thy self and it will cost you."

"Cost me. So if I asked you for something for someone else I would have to give you something in return?"

"Correct"

"I ask for my friend back. Aria is her name."

"Aria, she has the curse. since you want your friend back for you it is free but she comes back with the curse."

"Wait. No I want her back Curse free. Back to before."

"This will cost you"

"Cost me what"

"You know what. Right from the start"

Bee looks down at her pendant. The white woman smiled.

Bee took a deep breath and then gave the woman her pendant. Winderbae took the pendant then bowed as she turned into dust.

"One Aria good as before. Back to the tree where it all got tore"

Bee nodded then ran to the tree Aria had climbed inside.

The tree opened and out crawled Aria. She still had a few cuts and bruises but apart from that she was like new. The story to say when she got home was she fell into a rose bush and banged her head and passed out. Blythe hugged Aria and they made a promise never to come back to the woods again.

They even made signs that said; Beware and Do not enter. After that people stopped entering the woods.

Forty years later Blythe and Aria became grandmothers at the same time. Their grandkids were called Kim and Violet.

Kim was the granddaughter of Blythe and Violet was Aria's.

One day Violet and Kim went to the woods. They were never told about what happened so they didn't know. As Violet and Kim went into the woods they stopped because they heard someone crying.

"Hello, Are you okay?" Kim called out

No-one answered so they continued t look for who was crying.

When they got closer, Violet noticed there was a girl sitting on a stump next to a oak tree. It was Ella from across the street.

"Ella? Why are you here alone? better yet why are you crying?" Violet asked. Violet looked to Kim for moral support when she realised Kim was no longer with her.

"Kim? Ella where did Kim go?"

Ella didn't answer. She got up and began to run.
