Not many people can say that they have seen the future of man kind. Not even I. If man believed everything he only saw, life would not be as mysterious. People would not love, hate, and have as much peace if it weren't the curiousity that drove us to such things. Life is a mystery that everyone should fear.
The soft cry of crows in the distance of the forest made it even harder to concentrate on our task. Our eyes wandering, we took a step foreward into the unknown. Not knowing what was to be next, I layed one foot upon the brush of the forest floor. I gripped tight to my best friend's hand. He looked down at me and grinned,
"Are you ready?" He said daring me to enter the darkness first.
I swallowed painfully and shut my eyes. I did not want him to see the tears welling up behind my eye with fear.I did not really care what he thought of me, i just didn't want him to poke fun at me. I gripped tighter and took another step. I swallowed hard again and looked up into his black, black eyes. I nodded confidently,
"Yes, I am ready."
