There was a crowd on the hike that day. Susie and Joe were enjoying the river rocks when they suddenly felt tiny drops coming down... oh no it was raining.
So they took off their shoes and trekked along unhurried, enjoying the warmth and knowing there was nothing they could do about it. Who knows... if they keep their eyes open they might find a rainbow ahead.

It started to rain.

"You're not afraid of a little water, are you?" asked her father. Brenda looked around at the other hikers. They were all leaving. But Brenda could not show fear.

"Let's go," she said. "Further in."

"That's my girl."

They heard a noise, a strange, loud, noise that sounded both far away and very near, and getting closer.

With their city and homes destroyed, they all set off toward the underground city that they paid a contractor to prepare for them for the past two years, unaware of the impending betrayal they were about to discover. 😖

I told you we should have come on a weekday instead of the holiday weekend!
