This had better work.
Patrick “Trick” Kramer was tired of watching his family fall apart.
Enough was enough.
It was time to end this once and for all.
He just prayed that whatever they found here in this tiny town in the
middle of Nebraska gave them the answers they so desperately needed.
Trick had never been in a cornfield before. He’d grown up in Los
Angeles in a middle-class family in the middle of the city. His dad walked
out on them when he was a toddler, but he’d lived with his mom, an
accountant, and his stepdad, the chief financial officer for a large company.
They were definitely not the kind of family to go off camping, let alone to a
middle-of-nowhere farm. Still, he’d seen enough horror movies to know
nothing good ever came from slinking through a cornfield in the middle of
the night.
Even with the snow and the brown stalks of corn, not quite as tall as
they would be at the peak of their growing season, it was creepy enough.
Maybe it was the remoteness.
They were miles from the nearest town, and that town consisted only of
a small street of shops and a couple of dozen houses. The rest of the area
was rural, consisting of several farms. Not the kind of farms that fed
thousands but the kind of small farms that were mostly just a small holding
to take care of the owners.
He and his team moved quietly as they approached the little farmhouse.
It was in excellent condition, looked like it had recently been given a fresh
coat of paint, and stood out in the bright winter night, a crisp white with red
trim. The barn sitting just a little way off to the left of it was painted the
opposite, red with white trim, and similarly looked like it had recently been
repainted.
A couple of vehicles and a tractor stood off to the right of the
farmhouse, and an old, rusted swing set was in the backyard. Someone had
started building a treehouse in a huge oak tree behind the house at some
point, but it looked like they had either stopped partway through or had
fallen apart, some of the wood taken and used elsewhere.
While the buildings were all in great condition, the fence surrounding
this part of the farm was dilapidated, broken almost to the point of being
unable to be repaired in places. The wooden gate at the end of the driveway
sat open, and a few letters had fallen out of the letterbox, strewn around on
the cold, wet, soggy ground.
While some of the snow had started to get mushy, it didn’t look like
anyone had walked outside the house and through it since the last snowfall,
which according to the intel they had gathered before coming out here, was
over a week ago.
