Secret Of Adventure

They knew what had to be done. Time was of the essence.

Quietly placing their canoe in the water, not wanting to make a sound, two darkened figures kayaked their way across the illuminated lake. Far away in the horizon they could see it… their object. They had to reach the house. They had to remain unidentified.

The boys were surprised to find a flickering light in one of the rooms. Was someone here? They were told it would be empty, they were told they would be alone. The boys saw a shadow past the glowing window. Who on earth was it? They both stared at each other with an anxious glance

The Forbidden Tower

The night was still. Not a sound of wind could be heard. Silence filled the warm evening air, broken only by the sound of the crow’s wings flapping as it returned to its nest with food.

With the ghostly silhouette of the tower and the rickety pathway that led to it, the haunting silence made Lucy nervous. She felt something crawling on the back of her neck as she thought about what she might find inside the tower, and what might be hidden in the darkness around her.

Her heart began to pound rapidly inside her chest, matching the beat of the crow’s wings.

Lucy had always been slightly suspicious of crows; they had black wings, piercingly sharp beaks and a very alarming voice. The crow had settled down in one of the crooked branches of a nearby tree. She thought it was watching her. Surely it wasn’t though? Crows didn’t do that. It must have been her imagination.
