"Ok, now where shall we start?" the witch cackled as she rubbed her hands together in gleeful anticipation "it's been years since I've had a willing human to practice my spells on!"
But James certainly wasn't willing. As Elspeth turned her back on him, and with the exit to her cottage in tantalising view, he made a split second decision to run to his freedom. The old hag turned back round just in time to see the naked young man bouncing off the invisible barrier binding him to the room and into an undignified heap on the floor.
"I really wish you hadn't done that" Elspeth tutted mockingly "I thought we were getting on so well. Now I have to punish you"
"HELP!" James yelled in desperation at his ever worsening plight"PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP!!"
He quickly realised none was coming.
"Well, what a pointless fuss" the witch sighed "now, if you've quite finished I think it's time for your punishment"
"But Mistress..."
"Sorry dear, clearly you need to be taught to respect your superiors the hard way"
