"If there were an answer, I’d find it there."
Squeakily, rolling down the long, narrow railroad track, the cart slowly inched into the distance. The murky lake surrounding the mysterious track was deathly still and asleep. As if it were a pit bull playing dead just before it strikes, not one ripple quaked the surface of the dark water. Suspense hung over our heads, as the feeling that something eerie was about to occur, lingered in the air.
Curled up beside me, my younger sister shook from the cold breeze. Being that she is four years my junior, I have to care for her like a mother wolf cares for her cubs. Constantly finding strangers to introduce herself to, my sister can be difficult to keep out of trouble. But I don’t mind too much, after all she keeps me on my toes, and ready for the unexpected. Well, that is…until tonight.
