Maddie polished a red glass plate when the bell rang and an old man with a giant, grey beard, bushy eyebrows and a very old looking walking stick with a twisted top. As he stepped into the old pawn shop that Maddie had been working in for the past hour for some summer cash the room seemed to change, it grew more definition and contrast while the shadows seemed to darken. Maddie raised her head from behind the counter and plastered a smile on, "Welcome to McCauley's curios and pawns."
"Good day Miss, could you summon the youngest employee here?"
"Well that would be me I guess…" Maddie said with a crooked eyebrow.
"Your age?"
"15, sir"
"Hmmm and your name?"
"Maddie" Her uncertainty was growing by the second.
"Your given name, child."
"Oh, Madeline Christine."
"Name clear as crystal, edges sharp as stone, given two years time a secret will unfold." She blinked and stepped back,
"How do you know that verse?" she snapped.
"It is a prophecy from where I come from, how did you come by it?"
"I made it up." Maddie replied softly thinking about her notebook of poems in her bag that she worked so hard on.
"Well thank you for the conversation, it was most enlightening." And with that the stranger turned on his heel and disappeared.
