Shadow checked on the flowers as he always did, feeling their petals beneath his fingertips. It hadn't rained for a few days and some of them were beginning to wilt. Carefully, he stood up and ran across to the edge of the river, dipping his hands into the cool water to sprinkle it over the dehydrated flowers when his hand brought up a shiny stone. He dropped the water back and looked at it, turning it over in his hands. To his surprise, there were more of these shiny stones in the water. He lent forward to pick another up and then SPLASH! Shadow fell in, his whole body freezing.
