He was careful enough to avoid any splinters but nearly slipped as he stepped on the moss. He glared at the kite, determined to get it and finally reached over to the strings and untangled it. He sighed in relief as it dropped to the ground beside the boy.
Just before he made his way back down a glass bottle caught his eyes. Confused, he grabbed it and climbed back down. As he reached the ground, the boy was already gone with the kite. Too curious to think about thank yous he opened the bottle and inside was a brittle map. Eddie rolled his eyes. What kind of tacky movie prop was this? He sneered and read the map. It was the map of the forest and the destination was not too far, so he started to walk towards it.
After around 20 minutes he finally reached the ‘X’. There was nothing there. Only grass and a couple of trees. Am I supposed to dig? He thought not willing to use anymore energy. He looked around and jumped up when he saw a gardening spade appear out of nowhere in front of him.
“Is this a prank?” He shouted, almost hoping someone would come out to point and laugh at him. When nothing happened, he groaned taking the tool and started to dig.
