  "Luke," I hear my mom call out, "Where are you going?" I turned to face her and responded with a simple "I'm just going to wander," I started to walk away again but i can still hear her sigh at my childishness.  I ran off, followed some butterflies and danced through fields of flowers. I smelled the sweet smell of the roses, jasmine, lavender and freesias growing. I saw a bunch of trees and went to walk through the peaceful looking forest. The leaves were soft and the bark was rough, the wind whistling all around me.

I was now walking down through so many trees. I could barely see where I was going, not that I knew where I was going. Honestly I didn't care where I was going. I just knew where I felt like going. My mind was wandering just as my feet were but it was short lived when I came across a lake in the middle of the forest.

I thought of going to the lake but then I heard a noise ssss like a snake but much louder than any snake i ever heard before It concerns me. I want to run away but my mothers voice echoes in my ear "be brave luke don't run see the snakes harmless' ' she said when i was five, as she picked up a snake then let it go so it can be where it belongs but i don't know if this snake is harmless. Then I saw its big head peek up from behind a tree that had been growing in the lake
