BRAEBURN: Chapter One
The snail was a traveling fellow, always on the move. He had few friends, because he moved before he could make any friends. His two friends Horn and Spike, traveled with him. Horn had a horn mark on his shell and Spike had a spike mark on his shell. The snail had a snail mark on his shell and thus was named Snail. This is the way with snails. Snail was the leader of them all, showing them the way out of human reach. Thus they went on with their usual business until one day they came upon a gigantic something. "Would you please move out of the way?" asked Spike. It didn't budge. "It might not be alive" said Horn. "I'll go and see." He went up to touch it. "It's hard and woody" he said. "We should climb over it." "Hard and woody" said Snail to himsef. "Iv'e heard that description before. Well, lets go" They climbed till they got to a sippery, clear, hard substance. Snail gasped. "This is a window" he said. "What's a window?" asked Horn. "A window" whispered Snail " is part of a house, a human house.
