At the library Jena headed directly toward the fantasy section. I was in the young adult fantasy section browsing, when I noticed a bright flash of light outside.
"Hey Jena, I'm going to go outside." I told her
"Alreadly?!" Jena exclaimed
"Yeah."
"But I've only found three books so far!" Jena pouted
I glanced at her books and a smile twitched at the corner of my mouth. Her books were novels and of a high reading level. Jena and I were quite similar. I normally would stay longer and get several books of the same thickness as hers. "I think you'll be fine for today. You can come back tommorrow to turn them in."
I hurried her through the check-out line. "Can you wait here on the bench?" I asked her even though she was already sitting, starting a book.
I now knew I hadn't imagined the flash, I could hear a very high pitched buzz. In the corner of the park there was a small grove of trees where it was coming from. I glanced around for some reason to make sure I wasn't being followed. Cautiously I entered the realm of the trees. My eyes were drawn to a certain spot.
Pressing Foreward, Ever forward------- "A bend in the road isn't the end of the road... unless you fail to make the turn."
