The Circle of Death ** A couple were driving on a straight road in the middle of the night to a town far away. There was a cottage with a woman in ragged clothes with a little baby wrapped up in old rags in her arms.The couple were scared so sped past the house. A few minutes later they passed the same house again and again and again.They got curious and wondered why this was happening. It does not make sense because they were driving straight not in circles! The fifth time came and the woman ran infront of the car until the car knocked her over. The man rushed out realizing what a big mistake he had made, the horrified wife stayed in the car hoping the woman wouldn't hurt her husband. The man kindly offered the woman a lift. He was very hesitant, but for what he had done to her, it was fair. The woman joined the his wife in the back seat. The wife shivered in terror, "H-H-H-e-e-llo, what's y-your name?" The woman said nothing but stared back in red angry eyes. The car engine started again and the car went. The woman's skinny finger touched her wrapped up baby and started to slowly unwrap the rags. And there laid a baby head with blood dripping out. Right in it was a sharp knife. The woman quickly grabbed the knife .. The wife screeched with fear! The husband turned around to see what was happening, but both his wife and the woman had disappeared. The car door was open and full of dripping blood. In the corner of his eye laid the baby head with it's eyes open. The tyres screeched as he stopped the car! In the mirror was the woman deliberatly stabbing his wife on the ground. The woman had ran into the dark forest. The husband bolted the car door open and ran to his dead wife crying. Her eyes flashed open with hair - raising red veins all over! Without he's awareness, she slashed cut his head off. Leaving the only remains of his petrified body. All left, was a pool of rapid spurting blood. The cursed wife aggressively wrapped up her husband's innocent head in blood-stained rags and ran back to the cottage and awaited for the coming car ....
