“Look! Over there!’ Rashim narrowed his eyes as he looked up the winding road. Sure enough, standing at the top of it there was someone there. ‘It looks like he is carrying a gun.’ They continued heading uphill towards the figure. Walking slowly, cautiously. Closer, Rashim could see more detail. The figure was clad in a chunky bright orange anorak, a bright pink woolly hat and a matching scarf wrapped round the face. The lone figure had spotted them too, unslung the rifle and with some effort ha...d attempted to shoulder the heavy weapon and aim it at them. They stopped fifty yards short. Maddy spread her hands out in front of her, palms out and making clear she was not holding anything. ‘Hey! It’s OK! We’re not armed!’ The figure dropped its aim slightly. The gun looked a size too big for it. ‘DAD!’ They heard a high-pitched voice squeal. ‘There’s strangeeeerrrrrs!’ ‘It’s a kid,’ uttered Maddy. ‘It is a girl,’ added Rashim. They saw a bright flash of orange, movement among the forest of uniform, lifeless grey tree trunks.MoreLessRead More Read Less
