Blood Territory

Blood Territory

written by: Sarah Samarbaf

 

One night.
One body.
And a grieving mother.

Another night.
Another body.
Another grieving mother.

Night.
Body.
Mother.

Day. Exterior.
Pointing the finger of blame at a orphan boy,
No witness,
Except his beloved friends,
Cats and dogs,
Who spread love and joy.

Night. Interior.
A cursed cottage nearby the shore.
Three grieving mothers,
Three sharp knives ruthlessly piercing the abandoned body.

Day.
One, murdered like the others.
Hence, a grieving mother,
On guard for rage & revenge.

The other, slaughtered. Escorted by the mournful weeping of the dogs,
And the cats.
