Day.

Daylight.

Amanda couldn’t move. Everything was a blur. Try as hard as she could, her eyes wouldn’t focus. Her jaw was frozen shut, and she didn’t even have the strength to groan. Suddenly she heard someone climb onto the cart. Then a vague shape that looked like a head bent close, and out of it came the voice of Wanderspoon.

“There, you see? Just as I predicted. You can’t move and you can’t talk anymore, either. Silent as the forest on a winter night, that’s what you are. And so much the better for me. I won’t have to listen to anymore of your vicious insults. Since you can’t see yourself, let me describe your appearance. In short, you’ve become a deciduous denizen of the thicket. Your skin has turned to bark, and your hair is a mass of dirty little branches. Nasty roots are growing from your feet, and since they aren’t attached to the ground, no moisture can get into your ugly trunk, which means you’ll get drier and drier unless I plant you someplace. But why should I do that when you’re getting exactly what you deserve? Well, from now on it will be a much pleasanter trip for me. Perhaps I shall sing a bit.”

Humming happily to himself, the little man climbed into the seat, and Amanda felt the cart begin to move. Slowly it rolled and bounced over the broken pavement.

Light.

Shadows.

Darkness.

Light.

Shadows.

Darkness.

The squeaking axle.

Wanderspoon’s awful, tuneless gargling.

Light.

Shadows.

Darkness.

Darkness.

Darkness.

Darkness.

And then slow awakening.

When she awoke, Amanda was at home.
