A WITCHES WRATH

Mirabella's anger grew and the clouds darkened, swirling winds caused the waves to surge and roil. Lightening ripped the sky open, and thunder shattered eardrums. Mirabella watched the ships struggling to port.

Waves overwhelmed most, but the yacht Abandon still floated. How apropos, she thought, abandon me to sail into your new life with my sister. "Not today," she roared!

Finally, the Abandon disappeared under a monstrous wave, Mirabella smiled. Vengeance is so sweet, she thought.

Nevertheless, the winds grew. A Hurricane formed. The gates to hell opened and Mirabella knew the indisputable power of wrath and her sister Isabella.

War of the witches, and so much collateral damage. Great story!

Alex J. Cavanaugh said...

Obviously her sister was more powerful than estimated.

That one was awesome! I didn't expect that ending, and I love it when I'm surprised. I can't believe such a great creepy tale can be told in just 100 words! You rock, Yolanda!

Priceless Joy said...

You set up a wonderful haunting and eerie scene! I love how Mirabella's jealousy sought revenge against her sister. (It makes for a great story)! Wonderful story Yolanda! Thank you so much for participating in FFfAW Challenge!

Never tick off a witch or to Hades she will send you

Yolanda Renée said...

Thanks Tammy! I think there's a Hurricane on the way now - there's an angry witch somewhere.

Yolanda Renée said...

Evil never care about collateral damage. Thanks Alistair!

Yolanda Renée said...

Still water does run deep - sometimes, so does evil. Thanks Alex.

Never, never, never tick off a witch. Or name a hurricane after one...

Great stuff, as always. Can't wait to see how you up the scare factor for Halloween.

dolorah said...

That blog hop thing will be interesting. Lots of very good authors involved. Some days, I'd love to be a witch and take out my frustrations supernaturally, lol. Well done.

I am intending to join WEP this time. You know me and intentions :)

Yolanda Renée said...

Too late! LOL, Hi Deborah!

Yolanda Renée said...

Yikes.

Debbie D. said...

Mirabella's in for it, now! There's nothing like a witch's wrath. ☺ This would be great on film.

Yolanda Renée said...

Exactly!

Yolanda Renée said...

Hi Debbie, if only I could write for the screen! Did try my hand at screen writing. Whole other beast, but fun, even got some good feedback. Maybe down the road!

Shannon Lawrence said...

I'm looking forward to reading everyone's entries! Nothing like the strength of a hurricane to use for revenge.

Cathrina Constantine said...

Good One, Yolanda!!!!

Yolanda Renée said...

Thanks Shannon, and with a real hurricane on the way, it seemed apropos!
