This is not my story, it is not yours either, but a leap into the chilling waters of 'what am I, really?'
The narrator has had these questions ever since she could think, but it all changed when she met the woman under the water.
Would the icy lake she couldn't stop being pulled to answer her questions? Or would it drag her down till she couldn't breathe?
Read, and you might just find out.

The only thing that kept them alive was the lake which they had been entrusted with, hidden from the prying eyes of the government. But what will happen if the whereabouts of this lake is know to those that hold more sin in them than hell itself? What will happen to the two innocent sisters? There was no place for their purity in a world where the only thing pure was the water. And even that had an aftertaste of poison.Complete
