The Witch from West Mountain

By: Allison Xu

Legends say that because of a beast that lurked in West Mountain, teenage girls started to disappear. It appeared that the beast ate girls their age, and a witch named Agatha helped retrieve these girls.

Agatha and her soldiers would go up to every house in the city that had a teenage daughter and ask for money. If they didn’t give the money, they would have to give up their daughter. In that case, rich families wouldn’t have to give up their daughters, but the poor would have to give up their daughters.

Slowly and the population of the city dropped.

With all the profits Agatha made, she spent it on herself. She would hire all beauty agents to help her gain youth.

Everyone would think that she was crazy. The witch got money just to gain beauty? There were constant protests to kill Agatha, but no one knew the true story.

When Agatha was born, her mother died. Then, she got adopted. With her adopted parents, she was a beautiful girl who everyone liked, especially a young boy named Wyster. The two grew mad in love.

A witch named Hithina was jealous, so she imprisoned Agatha and locked her up in a cell with all of the other slaves that worked for her. Agatha was bred to marry Prince Tristan. From Agatha, Hithina could control the place through Agatha. Agatha obviously wouldn’t agree as she was in love with another guy.

Wyster looked for Agatha for years, until he finally found her. There, they would exchange letters through the prison bars.

Hithina found out pretty soon, so she locked Wyster in another dimension.

Agatha cried her eyes out every day at the thought of Wyster being locked in another dimension. So, she went along with Hithina. While Hithina was out, Agatha would go into her potion room and study all of them. One day, she made a potion so strong that three drops would kill all living things miles and miles away. So, Agatha used the potion that turned Hithina into a human with no powers. Hithina died somewhere in North-West Village.

Agatha unlocked the other prisoners, including the guy that soon turned into a beast. The beast would let Agatha see Wyster for 1 hour each month.

In return, Agatha sent him teenage girls to eat. Now, to this day, Agatha is still trying to free him.
