Eerie, Indiana fanfiction: The Bridge

[froodle]

The interior of the covered bridge was dark and cool. The stream below was heavy with snow-melt and flowed fast and clear over the pebbly river bed. The wooden boards of the structure amplified the sound, bounced and twisted it into strange echoes that sounded almost like someone speaking. Thick swathes of moss hung down from the beams of the roof, swaying gently in time with the voice of the water. At the far end, the other side of the glen was wreathed in green and friendly shadows.

“Give it up, Teller,” Dash said. He blew on his cupped hands and stamped his feet to keep warm. “We’ve been at this for hours. I don’t care who told you there was a troll under there, it’s not coming out no matter how many times we go trip-trapping over his bridge.”

Marshall glared at the obstinately troll-less bridge, then at Dash, then back at the bridge again. Then he brightened.

“Do you think you could get me a goat from the Eerie Petting Zoo?” he asked.

“I think Simon would kill us both,” said Dash.
