Chapter Eleven
Barbara looked out over the now docile men. They had, one by one, dropped their weapons, and were now patting each other on the back, giving hugs, and high fives to anyone near them. She knew the spell was permanent. The young men would, from now on, avoid any conflict like it was the plague. The talisman, somehow, seemed to zap the part of the brain which controlled aggression. These men would, forever, be peace loving. This made her happy.
âBarbara, are you alright?â Mandy yelled from on top of the roof.
âEverything is just fine,â she replied confidently.
The leader of the men addressed her. âYou know, we are going to take you up on the generous offer you made. I donât want any trouble.â
âThe money is already in your bank account,â she said cheerfully.
âThank you for everything,â he said sincerely. âCome on guys letâs go and clean up the park by my house. Then the kids in the neighborhood will have a place to play.â The young men piled into the SUVâs and started to sing âKumbayaâ as they sped out of the driveway. They headed back to Milwaukee.
âOh, dear,â Barbara thought. I hope I didnât over do the curse. There is nothing worse than a wimpy man.
âWhat the hell happened?â Steve asked as he came onto the porch. âThey were about to attack you and suddenly became all happy and left.â
âI think Mandy scared them off,â Barbara replied. âThe extra money also helped. We wonât hear from them again.â

Up in the widowâs walk, Mandy was pounding on the keys on her phone with her little fingers. She heard the skinhead say he wanted The Magic Belt and realized the sash was the belt. She stared in amazement at all the internet postings and began to wonder if Barbara Reynolds was some sort of a witch. She decided that Colt needed to know about what had happened so she fired off a text.
She had just pressed the send button when she became aware of a new sound. It was the sound of a helicopter in the distance.
âHelicopter approaching,â she screamed into her earplug.
âMandy hide, we donât want them to see you on the roof. The rest of you take up your positions,â Steve ordered over the airwaves.
