What noise?
Cackling
A loud, shrill cackle cuts through the air. All three of you rush out of the room, with Allegra stopping to grab some of the papers, and make your way back to the source - the entrance. You're shocked at just how crowded it is now, you could've sworn there were nowhere near as many people here earlier. There are people trying to force the doors open but they stay shut no matter how hard they try. Above everyone a woman riding a broom with dark clothes and a large brimmed hat circles over the crowd. One of her hands is fixed on her broom while the other holds a flask filled with bright green liquid.
"The doors are sealed, you're locked within! None shall leave till you're all stained with sin!" She lets out another high pitched cackle, then she throws the flask into the crowd. You hear a loud shattering noise and screaming, the people doused with the liquid hack and cough as the liquid seeps into their clothes. It isn't long before an awful stench hits your nose, probably while the victims are coughing, and you cover your nose as you're grabbed by the arm.
"Come on, we're getting out of here!" Allegra shouts as she drags you and Jenny out of an increasingly agitated crowd and towards a nearby hallway. You look back as you make your way, locking eyes with the woman on the broom as you do. With a better look at her you can see she looks like a stereotypical witch, complete with green skin. Her face twists into a nightmarish grin as she looks at you, producing another flask.
"Within your soul lies power unseen, it will be unleashed when your skin turns green!" She shrieks as she flings the flask directly at you.
