安娜的步伐很快。根本不是一個五歲女孩應有的速度。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwTA4WVT1E
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmw8ZucesRO
一絲不安掠過。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnSx9zXDPN
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMlQF2CtRN
村民都說她是個不祥人，因為她多年來均是五歲女孩的模樣，不曾長大。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenOj5rqk0U
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWG9g1SOlD
「安娜，不如我們休息一會，好嗎？」我氣喘如牛。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaUOBQDZzn
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxPUgtcHC5
她停下腳步，回頭冷眼望我。「好的。」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtVwskXBUS
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUFlPM3iVk
我們在一棵大樹下並肩而坐。我這才發現四周盡是一片迷霧。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9jVjtBCtG
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcSrGLiaCC
不寒而慄。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcu1hVMygbN
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVX79EWg6B
為何安娜可以單憑直覺辦認方向？783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruoqZSAKfL
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZy8YI5L1c
難道她真的是傳說中的森林魔鬼？783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCZknKlMu3
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZJWInHd5t
「安娜，你很熟悉這片森林呢！」我嘗試套口風。傳說從無人可以活著離開森林，除了安娜。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzpScdCNHQ
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4ZSKtdzMe
「嗯。我每天都在這裡閒蕩。」安娜低頭把玩她的老舊破娃娃。娃娃是由碎布拼湊而成的，沾滿塵灰。灰灰黑黑的，與安娜的衣裝打扮同一調子。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Opgofj5vP
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZkRmt8hJK
「為甚麼？媽媽不會擔心嗎？」我故作關心，目光離不開安娜的紅髮藍眼。全村只有安娜有紅髮和藍眼珠。我十分肯定安娜的父母不是村子的居民。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE57jZMCPWO
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHLzfGTlZC
「媽媽走入森林後，再也沒有回到村子。但她離開前答應過我，遲些會來帶我渡湖離開。」安娜將娃娃緊緊擁入懷內，一臉憂傷。「我日等夜等，始終等不到，所以走入森林中四處逛，看看能否找到她講的湖。」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Kw4oQOujI
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVX2hhs8xJ
「湖？是否我要找的湖？」我驚訝不已。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSv8YJX405S
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xN7nvnCJw
一連七日，我夢見失蹤多年的母親，她要我找安娜幫忙，尋找森林中的大湖，與她團聚。村民說魔鬼冒充我的母親，想要趁機侵奪我的肉體，勸我不要冒險走入森林，也不要與安娜來往。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWALPdSl3b
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zdeeAkTbc
「我估計是。」安娜不太肯定。「我沒有親眼見過那個湖。」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1XivdVcqN
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYhIcLFe7T
「你不是曾經引領部份村民找到大湖嗎？」我心頭一顫。曾有二十三個村民先後跟隨安娜進入森林，卻也再沒有回來。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DFLMQa70O
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2W2b7H1PN
「對。他們看見湖，但我看不見。」安娜苦笑：「他們都夢見多年不見的親人，但我沒有夢見過任何親人。其他村民沒有發過類似的夢，所以亦看不見湖。」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rN4bkLHO6
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DS7euqNYP
一切過於詭異，難以服人。難怪村民都說安娜是不祥人。村民對安娜又懼又恨，三番四次欺侮她，想要將她趕離村子。部份激進的村民甚至曾以驅魔之名，將安娜扔入火爐。猶幸安娜死不了，爬出火爐，躲在森林裡療傷。她後來又拾來爛布髒布裹身，遭村民戲稱「灰色安娜」。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGuiZTHCWE
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEgbATO10W
「不用怕。你的媽媽定會信守諾言。」我心生憐憫。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0eXvyYv3a
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthyk3dT8xN
安娜終於笑了。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRXw2lORye
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMnFFbbXXR
她喜孜孜地給我講述她最愛的床前小故事：從前，有一位灰姑娘。她有一個繼母，繼母有兩個女兒……783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCjXWRqiBx
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTyOgL7zb2
聊著聊著，我和安娜齊齊於大樹下倦極入睡。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqa5c54LdfJ
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡounUgpSF0W
翌日，霧氣消散。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIov2QowZZD
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4nK7XhUG9
我強撐硬僵的身體，勉力張開沉重的眼皮。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiaWYqPaUF
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGQ3OR8p5A
怎麼會有一個湖在不遠處？怎麼我們整晚不曾發覺？783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDA3BqkuhRo
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEELMnhr9x
「怎麼了？」安娜打個呵欠，睡眼惺忪望向我。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqIQ9g1X4W
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNkwDYwVHC
「你看不見嗎？」我指向大湖。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhynAPOH6Ai
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPn0H8O5Ix
「湖？我看不見呢！」安娜意識到我看見了甚麼，不以為然。她朝著我手指的方向跑去，跑到我眼中的湖中央，腳步不曾泛起漣漪。最後，她四平八穩地站在湖面，未有沒入水裡。如履平地。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aJlvDSSGc
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPoWBx05rT
我鼓起勇氣，戰戰兢兢地走向安娜。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQc0yAbvEDH
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPlYWMsOEt
沒走多少步，我的鞋子已被浸濕，雙腳亦感受到湖水的冰涼。「我沒能走近你！」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxywOQvcH0D
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ERbj40NBi
「你站在湖邊就可以了！」她回到我身邊。「看看附近有沒有甚麼特別的？」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvAQCUHAXX
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4f0G94lHV
我四處張望。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fC0YPaNod
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRhZDoVjoC
濃霧忽現，籠罩湖面，一切景物均沒入迷濛當中。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7H5ml2tOHB
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMvYu5xoF1
漣漪從湖中心擴散開來。一條無人的半殘小舟往我們這邊前來，停在我腳邊。「一條……小舟……」我被詭譎的情境嚇得半死，說話結結巴巴的。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiurhsoY5hg
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohacZC10Lm
「就是這個了！它會給你指引離開的路。」講解完畢，安娜馬上轉身離開。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lyFjK9JfK
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPkm53LhLh
「安娜！」我叫住安娜：「你要跟我離開嗎？」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Fvq2w2NHO
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagZQiQ4s0E
「我看不見湖，亦看不見小舟，離開不了呢！」安娜以笑容掩蓋失落之情。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DvNjqBbq9
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXLcIpMWuk
我連忙從衣袋掏出幾顆糖果，塞到安娜手心。「我只有這些……無以為報。」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4iTL4WmK4
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgN79JuNGS
「或許，你替我打探媽媽的下落，然後告訴她，安娜很掛念她！」安娜哭著講出媽媽的名字。聽聞她是個沒有眼淚的女孩，受到村民的連番欺侮亦不會示弱。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtflE44MzV9
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2yKuYr0cU
但，她會為了媽媽而哭。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8cXoiaBZj
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0vSyksG3f
「好……」我輕掃她的紅髮，以示安慰。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmUUJfwld1
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHv5HimUhg
我登上小舟，邁向矇矓深處。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXavCiUMF5
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLfHUEpQbm
安娜的身影越益模糊……
我睜開雙眼，霍地彈起。身邊圍著兩個不認識的醜陋老女人，還有……783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdsHjAiJ1S
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7P4mtvfbBO
「爸爸？媽媽？」我喜極而泣，父母亦激動衝前，與我相擁。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8btFCvDVl
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5j2oT6HdYm
我飽餐一頓後，與父母和醜女們再次聚首。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNoq8zfoCb
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakW8mUcFZb
父母說，我數天前遇上車禍離世。他們找來女巫作法，令我起死回生。現在，我還要多待在這裡一晚，觀察情況。如無意外，明天方可回家去。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyitbrlcLJ
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDnq9DEvtU
夜裡，父母離開小屋後。爐火邊，我和兩位女巫齊齊安坐搖搖椅，品嚐可口的熱朱古力。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKoScyLCfO
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYRYBb9GoK
我提及有關安娜的事情，希望女巫能夠幫忙尋找安娜的母親。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdaWX1cy42
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PaX0LnWBK
鴉雀無聲。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16sPd32IMw
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnK7PnlDXh7
我從女巫的神情察覺端倪。「你們認識安娜？」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7WAErv6Q7
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmhzmI7aoQ
她們沒有直接回答我，逕自講起她們的故事……783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghNHIHi8ar
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oxuZUNLWH
七十年前，國家內戰剛剛平息，人民又要開始面對瘟疫和饑荒。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkf0lxf5HC
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx03Nrt1iBp
兩個十歲不到的小娃隨著女巫母親四處流浪，最後得到一個樵夫收留。女巫為了報恩而下嫁喪妻的樵夫，助他照顧親生女兒——安娜。可惜好景不常，樵夫染上瘟疫離世，餘下女巫獨力照顧三名女兒。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7k890iu6yT
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZSxWWMk6u
四人吃不飽、穿不暖，女巫為生計發愁之際，發現村裡的富翁願意花錢招聘懂得巫術的人，望能將愛妻起死回生。女巫盤算一番後，前往應聘。她以不知袖裡的安娜作為「媒介」，哄騙她為愛妻的靈魂作引導……783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXJs0DD7E7
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYC7GvpMAnz
「為何不是你倆作『媒介』，而是完全不懂巫術的安娜？」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0cctXwYnD
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALlnAKLMqx
「有哪個母親會捨得讓自己的孩子冒險？」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8Tftu8qIf
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05QHZA6jik
「事成後，為何不帶安娜回來？」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQVvesaZBH
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91IyFkFaVn
「因為賺來的錢被偷光。我們只好重施故技，繼續利用安娜賺錢……」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3AE04lllV
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpnkik8cCC
「然後呢？又被偷錢嗎？你們不是活得好好的？有熱朱古力！有火爐！有搖搖椅！但安娜每天被欺侮，甚至會被扔入火爐！」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQQsiD0Imx
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aj8rWARmd
「太遲了！安娜的肉身早已腐爛，沒能復生。」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXoAd1YdzB
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0vZRB0AJ5
「至少，你們該要向她道歉，讓她不要盲目等待，重過正常生活。」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvjJh5OXyb
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhepvM60Gc
「我們……不敢……我們怕她受刺激後靈力大增，化為怨靈……向我們報仇……」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJWwkC2ZL5
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIs0ZU6AFEk
「她是個好心腸的孩子。或許她會原諒你們。」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUP1OyT1HD5
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAj1wGkOfg
「誰保證？」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSTrJBpV5q
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKj4CDoWcJF
的確，沒人能保證安娜不會發怒。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89UXL26Sr3
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIJpWh18LO
女巫見我沒有立即回嘴，於是乘勝追擊，你一言我一語，把責任推卸予我。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyqusrpwI7
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Uxqwi24jD
「不如，你馬上自殺，將真相告訴安娜，勸她重過正常生活。」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwbsh7mRbQ
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxIPobkqAX
「但我們不確定安娜會否願意再次為你引路。」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gIyoiJdZs
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuTwfESbF0
「希望安娜不會就地把你撕成碎片吧！」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8FeqtRIFg
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2erWcPn3WU
「裝甚麼大仁大義？你不也是沒膽量！」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxD3YWTHZli
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHebKOFAhP
我氣得將手中的保溫杯扔向爐火，把搖搖椅推翻在地。奈何此等誇張的舉動反令女巫笑得彎了腰。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoc9zkzHQZ7
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKcuEn4vop
「惱羞成怒嗎？哈哈哈！」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTK0yxfqFEG
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPTHB6W9Wd
「你的父母千金散盡，原來是救了個小屁孩！」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXHivzaGEr
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTeVBktwW9
「世界從來不是非黑即白！」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWXjkxvgek
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe33MpDwn6W
「小子，你將來就會明白！」783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1IUXub3sy
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYBTI1a36E
我知道自己徹底輸了。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAlVZlItvC
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeMc0DyBpI
不單是敗予女巫，更是敗於自己。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0Cvgz9UIC
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGoLoRkycD
我沒有自己想像的清高。783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnUmuT5OSW
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnXJkrcv4K
所以……783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3RHBKYKPe
783Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxGRorhZtj
對不起，安娜。
