753 Words4 Pages

I dropped a pebble into the pool, expecting to see a multitude of ripples rippling from the point of entry- but the pebble simply disappeared. Curious, I stretched down, extending my finger to touch the metallic surface. The moment I touched the water it sent a feeling of amazement through my nervous system. It also made a cold chill run through my finger to every corner of my brain, a hazy feeling that I couldn’t understand well, it wasn’t metallic as I had expected it to be. The water temperature was exactly the same as my body. “ That my friends is the very special lake that I was talking about” began Professor Thomas, “ Its chemical bonding is a a little different form the normal fresh water we drink or the salt water that has covered 70% of the earth’s surface explained Professor Thomas. “Then why did the pebble I threw sunk straight away instead of bouncing a bit” boomed Jax.

    Smooth, oval rocks lined the bank of the secretive lake. Discarded and neglected; overlaid with spongy moss and choked by fallen, decaying leaves from the unclothed and withering trees above. As the lake swelled around the ashen boulders, icy, black water lifelessly lapped against the long, thin beams of wood holding up a rickety pier.

Half-cut beams lined the sides of the pier, as nettle patches hissed from the shore when the water drew too near.
