When the day of her trial arrived at dawn, everyone was cheering for her guilt of being a murderous witch. Feeling the weight of an angel of hope and the devil of fear battling against each other within her soul, she still managed to keep her sanity.

Judge asked for her begging, angel seemed to be rising from the battle, because the brave woman stayed silent and held her head high for court to see.

But she could not deny the fact that a part of her wanted to cry and beg to the judge, to everyone that she is not a sin to humanity. Though one of her husband's word were stuck in her memory, "These trials are based on some horrid rumors that serve no justice? This town is based upon superstition. Everything will be alright...."

She may have not fulfilled his wishes about escaping this cursed town, but she will take her own stand. It is beyond risky, but it was her chance to have them realize how corrupted all of this nonsense is.

Her prolonging silence had angered the townspeople and the judge. "She is found guilty. Her punishment shall be to be burned back to hell, for she is too sinful to belong in the high heavens above."

Hearing the judge's final words, all little hope she did have left her. Leaving her in fear of life once again.

One accusation ruined her life, it had her falling into the depths of her darkest fears. But now....there seems to be no angel of hope that can save her.

Author's Note:
I am sorry for my late update, life needed attention and Wattpad had been glitching crazy lately. But I'm back and this story is close to it's ending! (Since this story is a short story, remember?) So...I had made the plan that from today to Monday, I will update until the end of this story.
But moving on, what do you think about the story so far? What do you think needs improvement on or any criticism that you want to say? Put them in the comments!
Happy readings! :)
