Olivia Gilbreath is one of the sweetest individuals anyone can ever meet. She's someone who can easily socialize so she's the best match when it comes to talking with these witches.

"Seems like they don't care very much about you!" sneers the witch who appears to be the leader, pushing her knife closer to Maria's throat.
"That's what happens when you get old."

Olivia emerges from her hiding spot inside, with her best Engineer smile.

"Hey, ladies!" she beams at the surprised witches. "Good evening! You guys are looking great. Curses all over..."

"I just wanna say, I love your outfits and horns. Everything's looking really great. I just need to take her." She gestures to Maria.

"I know you guys are so busy, so I definitely don't wanna, like, waste your time or anything—"

The head witch points her knife at Olivia.
"Would you like to trade places with her?"

"Actually, I'm not too sure." Olivia keeps up her shield of kindness.

"You don't belong here," snaps the head witch, holding the knife against Maria's neck while glaring at Olivia. The others gather by the door and windows, watching their friend.

"I know that's the truth.." Olivia nods. She belongs at home, with her family, her dogs, and her friends.

The witch glares down at her.
"And you'd better leave."

"I will! I'm just gonna take her with me—"

Suddenly, the witch whips her knife towards Olivia, dropping poor Maria in the process.

"Before I tear you open crotch to throat," she snarls, advancing on the blonde Engineer.

Olivia backs away from the blade.
"Okay. Okay. Please don't do that."

"That's enough!" The head witch grabs her wand, and her two fellow witch sisters do the same. All three head straight for Olivia.

Olivia sees Maria trying to crawl away as the witches seem to have forgotten about her.

"I just need to take her—"

The witches attack. Olivia's hit with several curses.

Olivia: Cursed

Although they're not painful, they do make her feel a little odd in the head.

"Maria?" She grabs ahold of Maria and moves away from the trio of angry witches.

"Okay, come on. Come on."

Olivia
That could've gone better, but I saved Maria, and that's all that matters.

"Yes! You got her!" Bethany beams happily.

"Mhm.." Olivia stumbles a little. Bryan and Alec are there right away for her aid.

"Are you okay?" Bryan asks in a concerned manner.

"Saved her from a bunch of wishes." Olivia motions toward Maria. She's slurring her words some.
"I think I got cursed. I'm not exactly sure what happened.."
