Chapter 36

• The smell of wet earth filled the air as the rain intensified. There was nowhere to hide. I took human form and allowed the rain to completely soak my naked body as I watched the waterfall increase in volume, its turbulent waters becoming more and more furious.
• "Do you think the rain will ruin Annie's night?" Lisa asked, worried.
• It was around 2 a.m. when I sneaked out through my bedroom window. My goal was to return to the waterfall to record the route and the best paths more accurately. Although it seemed like a darker and cloudier night, there were no signs of rain until I got close to here and was greeted by this downpour. I walked slowly across the terrain, exploring the possibilities.
