Bird Scene

How stupid are they, thinking I was being possessed by the devil in the courtroom. “A bird!” I shouted as the other girls joined in. We were screaming for mercy yet nothing was actually being done to us. What everyone in the court room didn’t know is that this was all part of my complex plan to gain trust in my town and to get rid of Elizabeth Proctor for good. So I had to create a couple of lies along the way, who cares. In the end I know that it will all be worth it when John and I can live the life I have been dreaming of for so long. This would just be a small speed bump on our road through life and I was willing to risk anything for John Proctor to love me. Anything. Our life was going to be filled with happiness and nothing was ever going to come between us. My love for him is so strong nothing could break us. Not even Elizabeth Proctor. I have always dreamt of living with John and our 2 Children in Salem and growing old together. Some day that’ll all be a reality and I for one can’t wait.

Dear Diary, 

Today has been a wonderful day. I have escaped from the awful town of Salem! It took much time of planning and sacrificing to finally make it all happen. I am so thankful to have left in such peace. The next step of this journey is to not get caught. I cannot risk being sent back to Salem. They might try to prosecute me for witchcraft and leave me to hang! Anywho, while on my journey to some unknown town, I had met many people but one other women who I can really relate too. Mary. Mary is 32 years of age and is quite like me in a sense. She has the same morals and ideas in life and wants a family some day and someone to call mine. Mary and I have many similarities. Such as, the love of her life was also hung for witchcraft. They eventually went after Mary to try and convict, but it was too late because she had already fled to this unknown town. No one really knows the name of it, and I am not quite sure if it will ever have one. Maybe runaways? Considering this town consists of all runaways from witchcraft. I wonder what would happen if this town was found and all the runaways were brought back to their original towns to be hung.. How awful and devastating. I couldn't even imagine. Well, time to go out to lunch with Mary. Will write again soon.

5 Years Later

Well, it has been officially 5 years since I ran away from the town that I once ran around in. It has been difficult for me, but I have managed to survive. Sounds crazy right? I have found a new love for another man. His name is also John. John smith actually. We got married about 4 months ago in a small church up the road from where we are living. It was a wonderful ceremony, where we released butterfly's signifying out love for each other. Only a few had attended. It was what I had excepted since some people in this new town still think I had something to do with witchcraft. Most things have been going good so far which is great. Besides a few bumps in the road, I have gotten over my once profound love for John Proctor, as well as the whole town and moved on to a new great life that I love.

Dancing in the Woods

So what, I danced around a fire in the woods, hang me. The girls wont tell anyone, I have threatened to kill them if any word of what I did got out. If the town found out I drank blood or did anything that had to do with witchcraft I will be shunned or worse, killed. So therefore I have blamed everything on Tituba in order to keep myself and the other girls safe. My reputation would be destroyed. And the worst thing that could happen out of all of this is that John Proctor would no longer love me. Even though he denies ever having any feelings for me, I know that deep down he and I still share something special. But his nagging, annoying, evil wife Elizabeth is the only thing standing in our way of us living our lives together. If I could just knock her out of the picture John and I could live happily ever after and nothing would be standing in our way. But how could I destroy their marriage… I’ve got it, death would separate them and if I get the whole town to believe that Elizabeth was part of this witchcraft story she would be hung for sure and John and I could be together forever.

Abigail Williams

Hello! My name is Abigail Williams and I am the best thing this town has ever had.  I have had many run ins with people, but the only person that I live for is Mr. John Proctor. John is an amazing man who happens to have such a horrible wife. Mean, nasty and most likely into witchcraft, John deserves so much more. I would be perfect for him. I am loyal, beautiful and a perfect person. I deserve John and he deserves me. Elizabeth Proctor, John's wife, is the only person in my way from John and honestly she is winning. The other day, outside of church, I approached John and told him how much I missed him and couldn't stand to be away from him much longer. He stood there and did not say much until I asked why he hand't seen me. John had such furry in his eye and oh my it just scared me. He said that he would never be caught with me again and that he would cut his hand off if he ever touched me again. That hurt so bad. After him telling me this, I stood there in such shock and disbelief. How could someone I thought loved me just go away so fast? I ask myself everyday if it is me who scared him off, or Elizabeth. My bet is that old and ugly women told him get away. She should have never said that. It's payback time for taking John away from me.
