This is the first time in a week I've left Mort's house. I came back to the lake, back to the spot where I last saw him. The wind whips my hair around my face in a mad tangle, but I don't mind. I'm staring at the water. This lake, this water. This creature. She'd kill you without even knowing your name.

"Bitch," I whisper. I spit into the now calm, crystalline blue waters. I feel the ghosts of tears running down my cheeks, but I've cried myself out. I feel Mort come up behind me, place his hand on my back.

"Are you okay?" He asks me. I stare at the island that I almost lost my life on. Am I okay.

"No." I reply.

"No, I am most definitely not okay."

THE END

So…anyone's thoughts are much appreciated. I'm rather satisfied with the whole bittersweet ending, the idea of it that is, not too sure how well it was written.
