one thing has been on my mind the past week here at nevermore, i have not been able to figure more things out about that girl.

anyways, today we're going into the city to volunteer at some shops.

such as, 'uriahs heap' whatever that is, the weathervane, and pilgrim world.

i got pilgrim world, hey! maybe i'll find something out about that girl, after all she does look like- she comes from long ago..

weems says i'll enjoy myself.

i seriously doubt it.

Enid is also going to pilgrim world, i guess i'll be hearing gossip all day.

the bus pulls to a stop and the door opens.

"Alright, let's go students!" weems says.

we all get out of the bus and weems tells us to be back by one to be driven back to nevermore.

enid and I begin walking to Pilgrim world with the rest of the people who volunteered.

"hey, im Eugene, you're new here right?"

i look at him and nod.

"well, in that case. would you like to join the hummers- bee keeping."

"I will think about it."

"hooray!" the boy says before walking away.

Later in the day, Wednesday makes the decision to go peep into the alleged "meeting place" in an effort to learn more about this girl from her visions.

She sees Ms. Thornhill looking perplexed as she runs into the woods with thing chasing after her.

Perhaps she won't interrogate me.

I finally make it to the meeting place.

thing moves around talking to me.

"I, too, had higher expectations."

We enter.

There is a stone fireplace, and there is trash all over.

thing gives me essential feedback.

"No, I'm not asking for guidance from my mother,"

"She is not yet aware of my visions."

thing talks to me some more.

"my visions happen randomly."

thing talks to me some more.

"want me to prove it?" i say, going around touching some objects. nothing happens.

"i bet this will give us some real insight!" i say, picking up a taco bell bag and mimicking that i'm having a vision.

"my visions are as predictable as shark attacks." i say, walking to the door.

i touch the door pushing it open when suddenly i fall to the ground.

i'm having a vision.

————

i see the girl, people around her are yelling.

"GOODY IS A WITCH!"

"BURN HER!"
people yell, and push her around. suddenly a man walks up to her with a smug smirk. i hide behind a barrel.

"you have been judged against the gods and proven guilty!" the man says.

shit, that's crackstone.

Joesph Crackstone?

"you're a witch,  Goody Addams. A SORCERESS!" he yells, provoking the girl to cut his face with a knife she was hiding under her dress.

he than slaps her.

"IT IS YOU JOESPH CRACKSTONE WHO NEEDS YO BE TRIED."goody stars.

"ALL OF YOU!"

"end her!" bystanders say.

he grabs the girl, throwing her into the meeting house.

"SET IT ABLAZE!"

i sneak into the meeting house.

i get swallowed by smoke and the last thing i see is goody climbing out.

suddenly, my surroundings change as the fog clears up revealing goody.

"We need to run he is coming." she starts. "He's here"she yells.

"there will be no escaping for you." The man says.

everything goes back to normal, it is raining, and I am covered in mud, thing stands next to me.

"thing that was the girl from my visions , her name is Goody Adams and I believe she is my ancestor from over 400 years ago."

I stand up hearing a noise. I look out of the gap between the two wooden planks.

" it's probably the squatter who is using this as their home." I coldly say.

!!!

I get a frighten by the monster that I am hunting for.

I jumped back before realizing that it was the monster, I then go chase after it, but I lose it eventually because it is so fast. I look down at the tracks in the mud, and I see that it goes from the monsters footprint to a human footprint

"looks like a monster is human."
