1 A mother's love

The story began in 1962, in Salem city, where the series of hearings and prosecutions of people accused of witchcraft.

The Traders, a group of witch hunters spy on people who are believed to be witches work so hard to gather evidence which could lead to an arrest vowed to rid the city of witches.

The Traders gathered into their biggest based of operation called "Stair." Every trader awaits , seated in the big stadium and eager to find out what is the gathering all about.

Greg, the announcer, went into the podium and started talking " It is a new day for us as our new leader has been elected. We will now be organized, More united, and stronger than ever!"

The crowd cheered, as a man with a diagonal face scar comes out in the podium. (The crowd murmured and appeared to be familiar with him)

A few moments passed and they have confirmed they knew who he was.

Valyk, the most ruthless and new leader of the witch hunters has finally spoken "I would like to thank everyone who provided me with their trust. I will make sure that this city will be rid of witches. They are the devil, they curse our child, our family members and they must all die!" the crowd cheers once more.

Valyk did not waste any time and executed the traders plan to get rid of witches in the city.

Sarah good, one of the firsts, was accused of witchcraft when Abigail and Elizabeth, claimed to be bewitched under her hand. The young girls asserted they had been bitten, pinched, and otherwise abused. Sarah was immediately arrested by the traders and was immediately put into trial.

When Valyk, preciding as a judge asked Abigail and Elizabeth who bewitched them, they shouted "It was her, Sarah she is a witch, we have scars from bewitching and we can prove it. The trial went on and Sarah was continuously denying their claim and begs for the jury to let her out. Unfortunately, no one believed her, she was sentenced to death and was burned at stake as a punishment for crime front of the crowd. Everyone can hear her agony on fire while Valyk said "This is what happens to the demon allies, we will execute the all and I say to you "We will let them all burn!"

Meanwhile, Bridget, a mother of less than a year old baby was into hiding with others as the news of the new leader of the traders will work hard to find and execute all witches.

"We've got to be prepared. This is our only chance of survival" said Flora, one of the witches.

"How do you expect us to fight their bows, anti magical objects and guns. I'm so scared. I think we are all going to die!" said, Charlotte, a 10-year old girl clinging to her mother.

"I don't expect all of us will survive but we've got to worry about our children. We need to find a safe haven in order to save them." Bridget said.

The witches gathered and talked about their escape plan. Soon, an army to the traders will reach them from the capital.

The witches argued and didn't want to get into the plan with one another. Another witch said "We should fight back and use our powers to destroy the traders"

Alina, one of the coven's with said, even with all their powers, not all of them will survive if Valyk finds them. She suggested that the witches go into the Mountain called "Trident" where magic was believed to have been born.

As the witches were servants of nature, they sought nature's help and decided to get into trident Mountain hoping to be safe from any trader. People in Salem are often to afraid to get near the mountain as they believed it is the witches source of power.

Little did they know, Alina was working with Valyk, in hopes to be safe from execution, she traded information about the witchs' plans and hide out.

A few days passed, A storm came, Bridget's baby was sick. She's trying to feed her with milk and washing up her baby's head with a wet towel to ease the fever. Her baby was crying loud.

As they slept, the traders slip into the mountain travelling for days to sneak into the witches cave in trident mountain to kill them all.

The traders begun to use knives to slit their throats and stabs the witches while on sleep. Some including Bridget manages to run into a nearby forest as planned in case the traders find them.

It was a long chase and the witches were exhausted. Bridget hands over her baby to Kate, one of the older witches and said While crying, she told Kate" Whatever happens, take care of my baby."

Kate replied and said "No let's go and run, you can take care of the baby and together we will go into hiding"

Bridget begged "Please, we don't stand a chance if we don't separate ways. I'll do what I can to hold them off. "

Kate run off with the baby while Bridget fought the traders with her powers. She manages to kill some of them but she felt a bow at her back and fell.

The crowd murmurs as Bridget wakes up and was hand cuffed in front of the Trader's camp. Valyk is sitting in the court area ready to precide.

"You were caught using magic and killed some of our men. You are an ally of the devil and you must be judged!"

Bridget replied "I would rather die alone than to see my kind destroyed by all of you."

Valyk replied and said "Then we you will die. Bring her to the stake. Two of the traders held her up to the stake and made sure that she's tied up and unable to escape.

Valyk started the fire but even before the fire reaches her shoulder she manages to cast a spell so powerful fueled by her own death, she made her daughter invulnerable. Screaming in Agony, she casts a spell for her daughter be able to channel all of the witches powers burned at the stake making her daughter, the most powerful witch that ever walked Salem city. She cursed the traders and told them that her daughter will come for all of them. The fire reaches her head and the screaming finally stopped. Valyk vowed to find her daughter before she's old enough to fight.....
