Brittany's Mansion: The Story
A Snowboard Kids Character Series Adventure

Chapter 1: Where Is The Mansion That Brittany Had Won?

The next morning, the Kuehnemund siblings went into town to pick up
their lottery prizes. Jam just couldn't wait any longer to get his
prize, so Brittany had to hold him down a few times along the way,
and it wasn't easy.

" Jam, the more you do this, the more people will think you're insane,"
said Brittany.

" I know, but it's just that I can't believe that I won all those
snowboards, and yet you got yourself your own mansion. Now, that's
lucky," said Jam.

" I guess," said Brittany.

" But?" asked Jam.

" What happens if I don't like the house? I can't really return it to
the sweepstakes people as they'll just tell me to keep it. Unless I
decide to give it to someone later," said Brittany.

" All I can suggest to you is to try it out for a few days and if
you're not satisfied, you can give it to someone, for a fair price,"
said Jam. Brittany liked that idea and she felt a little better, but
when they got to their destination, balloons were thrown in their
honor. " Holy cow, and it isn't even my birthday yet," said Brittany.

" You guys won the prizes? Well, who won what?" asked the man at the
counter.

" I won the snowboards, and she won the grand prize," replied Jam.

" Okay, I think I've got all that. Boy, it isn't easy when you have to
go through about 20,000,000 tickets each week. Jam, here is your ticket
for the thousand snowboards, and Brittany, here is your prize," said
the man.

" What's this?" asked Brittany. The man had given her a picture of a
building.

" That's the house you inherited by winning this sweepstakes. That
picture tells you what it looks like and where to find it," replied
the man.

" So, where is it?" asked Brittany.

" Somewhere in the woods on top of a lonely hill," replied the man.
That made Brittany get worried again, for she wasn't a fan of scary
places. The picture alone was enough to scare off anyone who looked at
it for a good 20 seconds or so. Jam told his sister to relax and that
they would visit the mansion tonight.

" Tonight?" exclaimed Brittany.

" Why not? You inherited it, so you should visit it and sleep there
for a night or two. You don't have to live there, just go there once a
week," said Jam.

" Well....okay. You talked me into it," said Brittany.

" It won't be so bad," said Jam. Later that night, the Kuehnemund
siblings journeyed to the house Brittany had inherited. Luckily, the
picture also had a map on the back of it to show them where to go.
Indeed it was out of town, and in the woods, and then....

" That must be the place up there," said Jam.

" It looks scarier than the picture," added Brittany.

" You worry too much," said Jam.

" It's a living," said Brittany. The mansion did look scary and
Brittany decide to change the batteries in her flashlight in case
there was no light inside, but when she turned her back for that one
moment, a gust of wind blew across her back and when she turned around,
Jam was gone.

" Jam?" asked Brittany. There was no answer. It was as if he'd vanished
on the spot or something else might have happened.
