I don't own the Characters portrayed, merely a Fan Fics glimpse into the mind of why a Witch cries

"Quiet everyone I hear a Witch, flashlights off, spread out, find if she's in our way or not." Bill ordered, Zoey, Francis, and Lewis each went separate ways, Zoey crept a long with her light off but her S.M.G. at the ready, she slipped silently around a corner and spotted the kneeling form of the Witch, Zoey turned to go but the sobs crept into her, 'I wonder what makes them so sad?' she thought, then struck by a sudden feeling she crouched down to the Witch's level and approached her carefully.

"Hey, What's wrong?" she asked gently, the witch looked up and found the human at her level in a non threatening position and almost attacked but that impulse was quickly replaced by another, Zoey watched as the Witch went from attack to sheer terror, her crimson eyes opened wide and the Witch scrambled away panicking.

"No kill, No kill," the Witch begged in terror, Zoey was shocked by this turn of events, she lowered her gun.

"I'm not gonna hurt you, I promise." Zoey said the Witch calmed down a little.

"No kill?" she asked again with surprise in her voice, Zoey smiled.

"No kill." She confirmed, "My name is Zoey, do you have a name?" the Witch looked at her a moment.

"Me-Lissa." She stuttered. Zoey smiled.

"Nice to meet you Melissa, tell me do you cry because your scared to die?" the Witch nodded

"Kill or killed." The Witch spoke in her broken English, then Zoey understood, they only attacked out of self preservation. Then Zoey remembered the others.

"Oh shit! The others." The Witches eyes opened wide.

"Others?" she whimpered. Zoey nodded.

"Wait right here Melissa, I'll be right back." Zoey stood and turned to leave but the Witch spoke

"Z-Zoey Friend?" The Witch asked, Zoey stopped there was no mistaking the loneliness and desperation in the question, Zoey looked back and smiled.

"Yes Melissa, Zoey friend." The Witch smiled exposing her razor sharp teeth then realizing the possible threat covered them with her hands but when she saw the claws she gasped and hid her hands. "It'll be ok Melissa I'll be right back, Melissa answered with a little nod as Zoey left,

Zoey returned to the main area to find Bill, Francis, and Lewis waiting for her,

"I don't hear her any more, did you take her out on your own Zoey?" Bill asked obviously impressed.

"Umm not exactly." She said.

"What do you mean by that?" Francis asked suspiciously.

"Do you guys trust me?" Zoey asked, the three men nodded and Zoey turned and started to walk away, "Keep your lights off and your postures non threatening and everything will be fine. Zoey led them to the room. "Melissa it's me Zoey, I'm bringing my friends in ok."

"Friends?" a voice responded.

"What the hell was that?" Bill asked.

"That was the Witch, her name is Melissa by the way." Zoey said as she entered the room and went over to Melissa's side. The three men entered and Melissa cowered. "It's ok Melissa No kill." Zoey said.

"No kill?" Melissa repeated hopefully. Bill could see the pure terror on the Witches face and the way she clung to Zoey like a drowning woman clutches a life vest and lowered his M-16 before stepping forward cautiously, he extended his hand slowly.

"I'm Bill, it's nice to meet you Melissa." Francis, and Lewis watched as the Witch took his hand careful of her claws and shook it
