A Voice
When Maric woke, the moon was high in the night sky. He got up and headed toward the lights in town. He didn’t realize how far he had gone when he had walked earlier. “As the sun falls on the third day, the start of a legend begins…” Maric stopped and looked around to see if any one was around. “Ummm is there any one there??” He looked around, toward the open meadow and to the edge of the forest, but he saw nothing. He continued to walk thinking it was nothing. “Once the legend starts, a new land will appear” He stopped again, “Spinner, is that you??” No response. His heart beat was faster and a cold chill went up his back. He started to walk faster. All he wanted now was to get home. “You are the legend…” Now Maric broke out in to a run. Not looking back, he ran all the way to town.
Once he reached town he slowed down. Spinner was at the town’s gate, he was waiting for him. “Hey what’s the rush?? It looks like you have seen a ghost or something.” Stopping, Maric turned to face Spinner. “Hmm maybe I did see a ghost…or heard the voice of an annoying boy who doesn’t know when to stop.” He started to walk again. Without looking back, Maric walked back to him house and went straight to bed.
