Petty acts of spite were not necessarily the norm in Blackwater Pass. Most people just... got on with their lives normally, a nod here, a "how d'you do" there. Polite, not always keen to intrude, or get involved, in the business of others.
But more recently the order of the day appeared to be changing in line with something a little less wholesome. Kevin, the village's notoriously cheeky, but universally liked urchin, found his cap stolen one morning. No big deal thought most, the Kevin was pretty upset about it, as you might expect from an eight year old. But this was followed by a series of consistent, and out of the ordinary acts of spite. Some dismissed them as bad luck. Surely Shirlé didn't mean to trip up Rob, though, she did have a rather too satisfied grin to her face, some onlookers observed. And Oliver's rabbit escaping and being eaten by those foxes was just... well, one of those things right? But it all added up, and it wasn't long before people started to get a bit more... suspicious... -------------------- Will Power - will@labyrinthe.co.uk
