Who: Edgar Bones & Eris Wilkes (eventually Eros Wilkes to get her to the hospital)
What: He is definitely leaving her worse off than she started.
When: Halloween.
Where: Muggle Wick, Caithness.
Rating: High. He's getting a 4 and she's getting a 7.
A statement of power. That was something that appealed to Eris on every level, especially considering it freed her to do what she did best; take lives. True she could turn someone inside out with just their mind but what was the pleasure in that? What was the pleasure in merely watching them suffer internally? There was no blood, no loss of life, no seeming “flash” or dulling of the eyes as that last fleeting bit of themselves disappeared. That was what made killing enjoyable, otherwise what was the point?
The town around her was silent as Eris walked through the streets which were overrun with people celebrating Halloween the muggle way. Candy being passed around, people playing ghastly music that was supposed to somehow inspire fear and drinking. Yes, always the muggles and their finding any reason to go drinking for a holiday, even if it was supposed to be for children. Or so she gathered from the dozens or more running about.
To anyone near her, Eris merely looked like another person walking the streets in costume. In fact the only difference was her mask was charmed to remain in place, because she wasn’t an idiot, and her wand was out and not hidden as it might otherwise have been.
What do you think you are, a Witch?
The question stopped Eris in her walk as she turned toward a group of men standing outside a pub laughing and having a go at her. Though they couldn’t see it a smile appeared on her face as she turned toward them. “Would you be afraid?” The mask dulled her voice but it came out just the same as she spoke.
Of a witch? Not likely.
More laughter came and the smile only grew as Eris approached further, if they’d only known what they were getting themselves into, maybe they wouldn’t have engaged her. “You should be,” Eris said as she moved her wand, a slashing motion came and what followed was blood coating her and those around him as she sliced through his neck. The other two followed and soon the streets were filled with screams as Eris began her “statement.”
