The Sacrifice

"Why are you trying to kill me?" she asked with a pale look on her face, her body was burning with fire and they could feel her nerves getting quicker as if she would burst soon, "it could not only be about burning the black market since you never it at the first place." 

"Curiosity killed the cat, do you not hear that?" asked the witch who chuckled, "but then you are already going to be dead. Aren't you?" 

Other witches joined the laughter as they teased the young witch who thought of herself as above them.

"Alright since you are dying, i will take it as your last wish!" said the witch with a nod of her hand and many started marking a circle around her.

"You are part of the sacrifice!" said the witch, which did not surprise Hazel at all, as she could already see that they had prepared to perform a ritual.
