安娜的步伐很快。根本不是一個五歲女孩應有的速度。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9wn2CwehZ
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTfQ4OKDy5
一絲不安掠過。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqg88oTwNsb
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCPk9LEGAz
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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8u2TJAt9Aw
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGYbwEYWIL
「安娜，不如我們休息一會，好嗎？」我氣喘如牛。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAh63B4320
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wl315kSsV
她停下腳步，回頭冷眼望我。「好的。」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XM6qaQWp3
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmaQ5qQz59
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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yOFVorlsQ
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLKbGPIaoW
不寒而慄。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppXH1CqBlZ
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4xUJKdt4R
為何安娜可以單憑直覺辦認方向？454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7j56fB6spw
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02KYsX4zHz
難道她真的是傳說中的森林魔鬼？454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIfLUWFGcq
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFYwLNiefO
「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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebxIYLxSti
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnoimdUsZA
「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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2483yJvR3
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dTbpYGcHr
「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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMrElHHBdj
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkk8QG2cOtG
「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。」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlV7f6oPfNz
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmu09tVCY1x
「湖？是否我要找的湖？」我驚訝不已。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05QSUzdFfn
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjaPUgqgZs
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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqMkiQJSYk
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncwJDXXrU7
「我估計是。」安娜不太肯定。「我沒有親眼見過那個湖。」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjHTXx2HPN
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DDeqQsuhF
「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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdr7FTdRBJv
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wqSZGTbud
「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。」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sgZb4VUq5
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNffnQN0nv5
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」。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKupsdDUaLj
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBG2GNp9QKS
「不用怕。你的媽媽定會信守諾言。」我心生憐憫。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLu2SO09bRw
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb79CjbCKqs
安娜終於笑了。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQf4yCgrM5
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyehmR27dP
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……454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuiZJ0AOID
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqfK2251KA
聊著聊著，我和安娜齊齊於大樹下倦極入睡。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpCCzDIVzg
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2G5WDUk05L
翌日，霧氣消散。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7h5vb8ukF
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKo78VvOzSH
我強撐硬僵的身體，勉力張開沉重的眼皮。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5g21Dgc5Z
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNKYe0yRtO
怎麼會有一個湖在不遠處？怎麼我們整晚不曾發覺？454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzM7bjwTpIE
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSe0Srt1xBd
「怎麼了？」安娜打個呵欠，睡眼惺忪望向我。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXoY8BBXsF
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO01i4td6z2
「你看不見嗎？」我指向大湖。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRn0ee347P
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxh42yfG6r
「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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zFeftQqW2
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAsfpQ9oFH
我鼓起勇氣，戰戰兢兢地走向安娜。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByAnhN3O0X
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNrNvXmKpc
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！」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ORnQlTPr9
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1u5UYOZt2
「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？」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuP6IgHNYe
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCURqkHv8l
我四處張望。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu96X4B9iqG
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XUb07TR37
濃霧忽現，籠罩湖面，一切景物均沒入迷濛當中。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTD3Aw0ETXX
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRmjRvFKP6
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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcF2GzXR4xx
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSUuxs2OZW
「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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKHMaPHUlG
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLvFcILXS4
「安娜！」我叫住安娜：「你要跟我離開嗎？」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3QsOUeH88
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38NCtTuSmB
「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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRjDiNpSNj
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBabB7tXWr
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。」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJRRFCMdgW
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1468cWApl
「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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcZ1zzdZJp
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhNeEkbp8W
但，她會為了媽媽而哭。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKSaG4LjSp
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyh7CGFYE35
「好……」我輕掃她的紅髮，以示安慰。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6ghctXcN5
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrl7CQCArcr
我登上小舟，邁向矇矓深處。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQCT4qCKyl
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTof6fgLmJL
安娜的身影越益模糊……454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOR3OtwKZD0
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……454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEU6aO2Khc5
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BgyRVM16c
「爸爸？媽媽？」我喜極而泣，父母亦激動衝前，與我相擁。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwD5rSksvf
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqze2lmSL4
我飽餐一頓後，與父母和醜女們再次聚首。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHahZYsUEY
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAnBNrfQ1z
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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzGFHVXv3T
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuRiW2Hr6t
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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPWpmIxAJO
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSznE4yZbPp
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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF79xOh9FsA
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjdLATMgvO
鴉雀無聲。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGKE5iLOXp
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmKK1LSPfe
我從女巫的神情察覺端倪。「你們認識安娜？」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoB1Dlo7cwV
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPMqJ7L3cM
她們沒有直接回答我，逕自講起她們的故事……454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLczjW6xAF
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaW5vlMgMP
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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3sriF3VMt
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50ftSh8mjH
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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3DvQO2W5I
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkSt6V9XMt
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……454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsl4vLMy5s1
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSC8BWyOQpe
「為何不是你倆作『媒介』，而是完全不懂巫術的安娜？」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQoXl9tc75
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqWeTezaOy
「有哪個母親會捨得讓自己的孩子冒險？」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToIElP2cVH
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7FlBM37F8
「事成後，為何不帶安娜回來？」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqUjfyQvHT
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4vnaGAbyB
「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……」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuF70oz7TW3
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDn2bmxcVZ8
「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！」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlF50I9T5MD
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7Z6sLKfHi
「太遲了！安娜的肉身早已腐爛，沒能復生。」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGKf2CgvNn
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCGS7Fge2f
「至少，你們該要向她道歉，讓她不要盲目等待，重過正常生活。」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxqia0HJ63
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZgwF4OZaF
「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……」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycLkf5g6xc
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFv69GSMlqJ
「她是個好心腸的孩子。或許她會原諒你們。」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZg15LRNBYi
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CQksOk6qq
「誰保證？」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnHJQ7X9jX
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtOGHoymMj
的確，沒人能保證安娜不會發怒。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HJFANwruW
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7nRa25XFY
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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsWPlMKEOR
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxT4gXQMZO
「不如，你馬上自殺，將真相告訴安娜，勸她重過正常生活。」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ877HVoLHF9
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtzjmX9R8S
「但我們不確定安娜會否願意再次為你引路。」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesZ0hWooUU
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvFWios8GM
「希望安娜不會就地把你撕成碎片吧！」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDfqVX8AYx
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvWs6MEx1Y
「裝甚麼大仁大義？你不也是沒膽量！」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvzg0FIQDv
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWVnKJRNub
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。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YSsQedr0s
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURWHWMEmLi
「惱羞成怒嗎？哈哈哈！」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66Xkky44U1
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNw1OAodiY
「你的父母千金散盡，原來是救了個小屁孩！」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoaFT3PI2g

「世界從來不是非黑即白！」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJizuP6Vaq7

「小子，你將來就會明白！」454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFVyZtnFSz
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiR3rmfzWa
我知道自己徹底輸了。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZgO3pZOej
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9wIgmTOEx
不單是敗予女巫，更是敗於自己。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjUG04aOxi
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5LiTApzEg
我沒有自己想像的清高。454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwF9DNqRPW
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkeVGp7pEN
所以……454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00dkmYPRK7
454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYOxUn1GCa
對不起，安娜。
