Beware the Dust

The sun shines down, heating the skin beneath the light fabric of my dress. Well this is new, it's always cold and damp in this town. A light breeze blows through, making the trees sway and whisper their soft conversations. If only I could understand what they are saying. It's going to be dark soon. That thought alone makes me shiver. It's alright, I'm almost home. Just a a couple more miles of walking before I can join the safety of my bed and brothers. Just keep going. I continue on my path when I see it. It's barely there, but shining as if it's a beacon, calling all around towards it's shimmering light. The sun makes it stand out the most, the rays casting a perfect glow making it's shimmer spread like fire. I slowly make my way towards it, each step I take slower than the first. Dust. It's dust, but.. golden. Why does it look familiar? Have I seen it before? I slowly reach my hand down, ghostly touching the shiny powder, and lift my finger to my sight. It stuck on the pad of my thumb, shining, like it's trying to attract something. Where did this come from? Did someone pass by here? But who would be out in the woods this far away from town? If only I had been paying attention. If only I had listen to the trees swaying with fright, or the birds chirping their warning for me to run. The last thing I see is the same, gold dust floating from above, down next to me knees, something ice cold breathing down my spine, before everything goes dark.
