Ashton walked to her mother's house. She was home and she intended on making peace with her mother. They hadn't talked in forever and she wanted to talk.
She entered the house and gazed around. "Mother." She called out. There was no answer. She began searching the house still calling out her mother's name. The house looked the same, untouched.
Ashton stopped in her tracks when she saw a trail of blood going into the kitchen. Slowly she walked in through the door frame and the sight before her made her knees weak. She gripped the wall trying to stay standing. "Mother?"
Vivian laid across the table with a silver knife jammed into her stomach. The table was bloody and she had cuts all over her body.
For the first time in centuries tears began to form in Ashton's eyes. She walked over to her mother's dead body and forcefully shook her. "Get up." She angrily spoke while sobbing. "Mommy." She cried out like a child. "Please get up."
"Ashton? What's going on-" Zaria stopped at the sight of her baby sister holding her mother's dead body. Elijah stood behind her.
"Ashton." Elijah whispered slowly approaching her. He gently touched her shoulders trying to pry her off.
"Don't touch me." She yelled continuously shaking her mother's body.
Elijah forcefully yanked Ashton away from the body and pulled her out of the room. She sobbed against his shoulder, feeling weaker than ever. He held his sister in his arms allowing her to cry.
He never knew this day would come and he was afraid of what would happen next. He was afraid of what Ashton would do.
"The witch killed her." Zaria muttered. "Mother was nothing but kind to her." She shook her head.
They both knew their lives were about to change, along with Ashton's.
