Those Really Cute Attacking Flying Monkeys!!!...

"The Merry Meet Murders, ~ Chapter 5...

I ran as fast as I could. After all, our darling James had been knifed! I raced up the front steps. The half-tamed fox, Granny's familiar, Reynardine looked at me impassively from her place on one of the wicker chairs. She yawned, showing a mouthful of wickedly sharp teeth and stretching out her elegant black legs. I had no time to scratch her head. Granny's other familiar, the white crow Spirit, cocked his head and gazed at me quizzically with the eye on that side. I dashed into the house, grabbed the phone. The girl on the 911 line said the ambulance would be there in a few minutes. I slid down the wall to the floor, my hand pressed to my chest, gasping. I'd seen the attacker's face, briefly. It WAS Jus Glaser. I was sure of it! Obviously, he'd been thinking to pick up a little extra cash from selling our things at Diddy's Pawn Shop in Royal Oaks, the louse! Sure, he was handsome as a new born colt, but so what? He was the ultimate bad boy, unpredictable and wilder than hell! My sister had been crazy to have him in our house! No doubt he'd given our place a quick scan, eyeballing what he wanted to steal when he knew we'd be in the back of our property celebrating Lammas. Well, if there was a lineup identifying him I'd certainly try to be there. This time when he was convicted he wouldn't just be going to a correctional facility he'd be headed for the big house, hopefully. I could hear the wail of the ambulance siren in the distance. Out the door I dashed and down the steps. Granny was kneeling on the grass next to James. Vesper was standing, looking like she was going to faint. The ambulance pulled up and the paramedics jumped out. In a moment they had James on a stretcher and had lifted him. James eyes were closed. He was very pale and seemed unconscious. We got in the Tracker to follow the ambulance to the hospital. ~ Copyright 2024, by Antoinette Beard.

>>> And, the beautiful red haired witch... You can just imagine what the staid and repressive Puritans thought of a gorgeous woman with a lush head of thick, curly flaming red hair and ivory skin with brilliant green, blue or gold eyes!!!...

>>> Tsk-tsk...Redheads are REALLY untrustworthy... :( >>> Whether you’re talking about Eve, Judas Iscariot, or Lilith, there is many an untrustworthy figure portrayed to have red hair. Christianity and popular perception has a big part to play in this and where the beginnings of the idea came from. In particular, Michelangelo’s ‘Temptation and Expulsion of Adam and Eve’ initially portrays Eve as a level-headed brunette before she lures Adam down the road of temptation and damnation, and is then later miraculously depicted as a redhead, seductive and suspicious. Judas Iscariot, famously known for his betrayal of Christ, very much fuels the fire of redheads being deceitful, too. In nearly all depictions of him, his hair colour is noted and commented on as red. This negative connotation goes as far as France, which had a low opinion of gingers back in the 19th century. Their phrase “poil de Judas”, was used as an insult for redheads back then, meaning ‘hair of Judas’. This link between red hair and deceit can also be traced back to the tales of the headstrong and disobedient Lilith, who quarrelled with Adam and seduced men in their sleep. She is regularly portrayed as a bewitching redhead, having mythical and seductive powers to match. ~ From "Ginger Parrot".
