No... this can't be happening! Anne started stumbling backwards in shock. How could she have been holding the axe? Where did it come from? Anne suddenly tripped backward over a root and tumbled down a hill. She reached the bottom with a loud thud and she layed there for a few seconds, trying to get her thoughts together. Okay, Anne thought, So... if I was carrying the axe, then... what about the clown? Is it.... is it all in my head? Am I really crazy?

Anne turned around to see a clown, of course. What if they were all in her head? Anne tested it by standing and facing the clown. They stared at each other for what seemed like a lifetime before the clown dissapeared.
