安娜的步伐很快。根本不是一個五歲女孩應有的速度。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWEudXUk3v
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZRtea0TgC
一絲不安掠過。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKU1MjiGFB
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbpuCe1rsh
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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1n8OJr0Gp
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLY1beIYXuz
「安娜，不如我們休息一會，好嗎？」我氣喘如牛。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlWQIbk2aC
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdanhJAghN
她停下腳步，回頭冷眼望我。「好的。」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXd652X5RiU
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8rQVAagmP
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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AkxAOHuoN
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyepO12jMQo
不寒而慄。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZNv3X0Xjd
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbBlw0HqKy
為何安娜可以單憑直覺辦認方向？407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvXxKAt2w3
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWKzgSb9TW
難道她真的是傳說中的森林魔鬼？407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQgiCSs4LA
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiljhvRzo2
「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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdKnzf0UDC
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdJE9yqL8P
「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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wo92I7wQt
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCY44MAnssW
「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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGcsWPQnXE
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7OK3XobY0
「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。」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1XQI4XFzW
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhhhuTQQ0D
「湖？是否我要找的湖？」我驚訝不已。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxmqsCanvu
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTff5SenWFW
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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRrpp7PZ8G
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPaq0HF6OK
「我估計是。」安娜不太肯定。「我沒有親眼見過那個湖。」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsvxpt8TT0
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYwJYpLYte
「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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dzHa11XX1
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJhFLRnEki
「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。」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEm63AHm2Vt
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwFQhoJIlp
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」。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7Xj0vYPrM
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNXDwfioPh
「不用怕。你的媽媽定會信守諾言。」我心生憐憫。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZV3x7zVkqF
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVzB97mN74
安娜終於笑了。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEH5BDQVaO
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsXOqic8KQ
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……407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA05CqTcXQi
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNZ9ueQeTw
聊著聊著，我和安娜齊齊於大樹下倦極入睡。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy94nBEbZjz
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8LhoLgmP3
翌日，霧氣消散。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMVZMkZsFY
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigNCTKhH50
我強撐硬僵的身體，勉力張開沉重的眼皮。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQNXH9awwn
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1xaSTe6JE
怎麼會有一個湖在不遠處？怎麼我們整晚不曾發覺？407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkVBRzeGLd
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5BHv7KHRg
「怎麼了？」安娜打個呵欠，睡眼惺忪望向我。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEED4U7a8Cg
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UCSNa9E6D
「你看不見嗎？」我指向大湖。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOfxqLTi08
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh35wAY8SjA
「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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFWfiKaL78
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZzQ0QlDgM
我鼓起勇氣，戰戰兢兢地走向安娜。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxK59LAFgG
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfd9koeJBSM
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！」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyng2Q4fqJJ
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBZW59PNNf
「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？」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnAOpIFzPk
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdtIqGCnVr
我四處張望。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxEb2cizRq
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEZzqAj37K
濃霧忽現，籠罩湖面，一切景物均沒入迷濛當中。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiq4WE7xX2
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSQHHR6ryP
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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7sE4QC3Xt
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb222ffEyzG
「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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YxDSpRgx6
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTau9c7NLpA
「安娜！」我叫住安娜：「你要跟我離開嗎？」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcW6RPs3fBT
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLA4UbecC2Q
「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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeb6xU5CSrF
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnDtKUL2Pd
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。」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINNC7wOOJ3
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FWJnp9rQl
「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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKgRneWQ8v
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lRFE0nzHM
但，她會為了媽媽而哭。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQKenXIExh
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22hccrqMC5
「好……」我輕掃她的紅髮，以示安慰。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidk2hTnlqp
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8y0Xnx9aLa
我登上小舟，邁向矇矓深處。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrUAIKQwEC
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpgS3ZxZ5K
安娜的身影越益模糊……407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbx5lWMqxiK
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……407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdoltDvnZ6
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPjwrmwTwP
「爸爸？媽媽？」我喜極而泣，父母亦激動衝前，與我相擁。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUGJd5MLM4
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrW3lvC0Ae
我飽餐一頓後，與父母和醜女們再次聚首。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4GyRpOYuO
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsmKUHdYY4
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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXWb5qAh9K
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAQJM5BjwT
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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RO0MEKTxv
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKDcdBMHCG
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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGcn2U1Coh
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSojJhRKY1P
鴉雀無聲。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8khODwsmQG
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eCAdK6BKz
我從女巫的神情察覺端倪。「你們認識安娜？」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbXXWRiISI
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvooTmXNLie
她們沒有直接回答我，逕自講起她們的故事……407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzC93SKfiDU
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyW32bTiFE
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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1j1qJUOHt
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0sRBwbQ2Q
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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5OWdp4x6x
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0hSSCtQtu
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……407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCUAM3EHGw
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9x5ZcxLs1o
「為何不是你倆作『媒介』，而是完全不懂巫術的安娜？」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvL0SiN1fV
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEouwarCfSo
「有哪個母親會捨得讓自己的孩子冒險？」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOiZQjegcX
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9W7J0mrGWc
「事成後，為何不帶安娜回來？」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdn6g61Ocj
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSpOdA0MB6
「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……」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5XOG1alBH
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fhO9v8BMh
「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！」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0PVZcEgnX
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJGV9HPlpK
「太遲了！安娜的肉身早已腐爛，沒能復生。」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXDrutHjMd
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZFOZKzXu9
「至少，你們該要向她道歉，讓她不要盲目等待，重過正常生活。」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADiFGGE40H
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqz5MfareXx
「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……」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbaVd02DtB
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryFo0hRRwx
「她是個好心腸的孩子。或許她會原諒你們。」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QqcTNqCzj
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1MSKJA6Kn
「誰保證？」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlrFufTdwO
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK10p6F5B9j
的確，沒人能保證安娜不會發怒。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iIkoShP9P
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9KuX7e7Ir
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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6U80H0QEIR
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj84KIaOW40
「不如，你馬上自殺，將真相告訴安娜，勸她重過正常生活。」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZGAhdviOP
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4RP9Sc4ku
「但我們不確定安娜會否願意再次為你引路。」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HWdANoD1r
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWMjBqBYK4
「希望安娜不會就地把你撕成碎片吧！」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJiWnWYOZC
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDnM4Vu8Ox
「裝甚麼大仁大義？你不也是沒膽量！」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnloDTLE1f
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoF52reafCZ
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。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdS5voQr2d
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeGjnDDV5v
「惱羞成怒嗎？哈哈哈！」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSxCJoPoqJ
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvGdfFc7XO
「你的父母千金散盡，原來是救了個小屁孩！」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUn0XjbfqC5
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhOWdTunot
「世界從來不是非黑即白！」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChc6OeqEdA
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsW4HymPRa
「小子，你將來就會明白！」407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQlu1dgqlt
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPeJdOr73l
我知道自己徹底輸了。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNJRjGcwjR
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENDiMYfmhF
不單是敗予女巫，更是敗於自己。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnHFi4EkCy
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnlFJ7hTN7
我沒有自己想像的清高。407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCQVFP0o22
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYbsVaATJ7
所以……407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyW8idvsyRA
407Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5cO21Q59T
對不起，安娜。
