Author's Note: This is a prediction of what I predict will happen at the end of Buried Treasure. I think this will be the ending, because just like any other horror story, you think that there will be a happy ending and the BOOM major plot twist with just a hint of karma entwined in the mix.
Cody stands there with sweaty, shaky hands. Devils and Angels blabber back and forth inside his head; 'Don't do it! You make a promise!' 'Come on! We will be rich!'. He shakes the thoughts out out his head, and snatches the hook off the floor without hesitation and tosses the golden treasure into the cast iron mold above the fire. Releasing the breath that he didn't know he was holding, Cody slumps back into a chair near the fire and waits for the gold to melt. Somewhere between settling down in the chair, and the gold being completely melted, Cody slipped away into a slumber.
Cody is awakened by a loud thump thump thump at the door. Like a bunny near a person, he freezes instantly. So many thoughts from taking the hot iron cast and running, to acting like it wasn't him run through his head, but no thought turned to action as he stay frozen in disbelief. With a creeek, the heavy wooden door finally opens and Cody can't find the air in the room. At the mouth of the door stand Clarence Buchanan.
With dark, menacing, unforgiving eyes, Clarence saunters over to the still frozen Cody. And the whole time, Cody can't even find the words to scream.
