安娜的步伐很快。根本不是一個五歲女孩應有的速度。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFkY5zVJya
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTkd0hbAsO
一絲不安掠過。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvMN8tCfnQ
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RIM7WPQnp
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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYurnJCKIV
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2q8Y3QxpUG
「安娜，不如我們休息一會，好嗎？」我氣喘如牛。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1FicUTzAn
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX42MWDoNrN
她停下腳步，回頭冷眼望我。「好的。」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbugzb7cmpP
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TpFlgJPaU
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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyK3gvfnGe2
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrhO3nWJqy
不寒而慄。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWu6vTKZv6
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyt6yz9dBd
為何安娜可以單憑直覺辦認方向？424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1liFteyVR8
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm768kZ7ycM
難道她真的是傳說中的森林魔鬼？424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAM2E13YL4U
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBkVKcnzya
「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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9M1fBwYAu9
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygUQoELRDB
「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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADNr7TsSUI
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFumtysptUs
「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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcp4bdJwZx
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Np0LzPGPp
「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。」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdw73Am86B
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYt05oh7Sq
「湖？是否我要找的湖？」我驚訝不已。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7f4svkqwxw
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBeO3HjEY0
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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7tOKTj1pF
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRemDeIHMb
「我估計是。」安娜不太肯定。「我沒有親眼見過那個湖。」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SG9dM9QdT
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdWs83Kugk
「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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCUjfkU2sZ
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UeIXPbrML
「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。」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5N9qDbVRn
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmpD0AGqTh
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」。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30nEVNaXlU
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3OPCBUJSZ
「不用怕。你的媽媽定會信守諾言。」我心生憐憫。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZPItkT5AZ
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkG7bOybNUq
安娜終於笑了。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaI99NSNF9V
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmF2uVb9bc
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……424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaC4SeUQ5V3
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOzxGsBn31
聊著聊著，我和安娜齊齊於大樹下倦極入睡。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgJDpqcRtX
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJIlP7tzLs
翌日，霧氣消散。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkftZyZ2M3
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkVJBVegv3
我強撐硬僵的身體，勉力張開沉重的眼皮。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2SIpZIrq5
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7ulfa2LiW
怎麼會有一個湖在不遠處？怎麼我們整晚不曾發覺？424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtdVQzsJH8
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3BIUcPKgU
「怎麼了？」安娜打個呵欠，睡眼惺忪望向我。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4fMXAVwqY
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajtWYzRKQ0
「你看不見嗎？」我指向大湖。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMhF52AXcR
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyADjuGANz3
「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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsL0aXmfmK
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbSPhEpNB9
我鼓起勇氣，戰戰兢兢地走向安娜。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0JAqoxwdT
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyu3U9bwioS
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！」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28VfQOSkL9
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbslTitZSAd
「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？」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfv2A52jUZp
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64qYCpgmL0
我四處張望。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJsVgsCsDj
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUVpQR1RMQ
濃霧忽現，籠罩湖面，一切景物均沒入迷濛當中。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCICaImHSqz
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1X1vwb2ljl
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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdPooAgnaI
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29z02W7SsY
「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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5XAlGo2Ue
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMakbEi6Az
「安娜！」我叫住安娜：「你要跟我離開嗎？」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSllcr3tTwE
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxYfRhfCRm
「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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tmV9JgYfg
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfJNTpXgqD
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。」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0u2Wsxxk2
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrodFro6jE
「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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPH6E4XUDu
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVA2RaPqobb
但，她會為了媽媽而哭。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXbVP8BFVQ
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2PshGSF9w
「好……」我輕掃她的紅髮，以示安慰。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qjTYsKjYi
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mXYQEVqQn
我登上小舟，邁向矇矓深處。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkPby8JqJK
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ747yMoOBCr
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……424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYOZV7skrC
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1qfUgHFP6
「爸爸？媽媽？」我喜極而泣，父母亦激動衝前，與我相擁。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtv7iaWUDq7
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8nU5UHUEn
我飽餐一頓後，與父母和醜女們再次聚首。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJo7MwpQ9z
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBWnHObP55
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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkACuglU0UV
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SoaIHOqwk
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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXVVoDpLYF
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5sUK7DCKY
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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcKt1kimML
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdOtvN8suA
鴉雀無聲。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4At6hy0Kf
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3imt5a6F79
我從女巫的神情察覺端倪。「你們認識安娜？」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD71ULKUdWR
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCAULBd0KR
她們沒有直接回答我，逕自講起她們的故事……424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0h4b8B6RH9
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrhS1IMDAJ
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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuboYqK3GoG
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9fum9pPCQ
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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7AOeMJUpl
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6jEeAo4Ms
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……424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQb6yiOqsY5
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF40nQsRPav
「為何不是你倆作『媒介』，而是完全不懂巫術的安娜？」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8TVHZCr1C
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlbJJUhdbr
「有哪個母親會捨得讓自己的孩子冒險？」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSiPemVpMa
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNEI9T586Q
「事成後，為何不帶安娜回來？」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDNupV5VsY
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1I0GCTtTGW
「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……」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNb5gQdlpa
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyoLj5VIro
「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！」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrDFJeZ68h
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31b2Vq6d5D
「太遲了！安娜的肉身早已腐爛，沒能復生。」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWayAyAkBz
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEi0a9UWqFJ
「至少，你們該要向她道歉，讓她不要盲目等待，重過正常生活。」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfE86weqmE0
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeiMblOB2w
「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……」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKsYWoZeHp
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQ8q4h87L9
「她是個好心腸的孩子。或許她會原諒你們。」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTMVHPojz5
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNgZbqxP2q
「誰保證？」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uND8ADN9Z
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jaWl0WRuS
的確，沒人能保證安娜不會發怒。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6xYV83d4r
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnU8vpLTqWk
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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08Rc8J90gD
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEzOPnRBeJ
「不如，你馬上自殺，將真相告訴安娜，勸她重過正常生活。」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbo5MGBq1A4
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpW9Q5okB4j
「但我們不確定安娜會否願意再次為你引路。」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJjKLBBtVy
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbMxMIyONl
「希望安娜不會就地把你撕成碎片吧！」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrZytvCo3b
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfs5ZQszZsB
「裝甚麼大仁大義？你不也是沒膽量！」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStsEfpBzXE
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkFGaAy6gz
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。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjm0rPBrMT
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4PcGF79U3
「惱羞成怒嗎？哈哈哈！」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jizj0XvNw
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksBlr1qJhR
「你的父母千金散盡，原來是救了個小屁孩！」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvErbX1DDh
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHfzUcqueC
「世界從來不是非黑即白！」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16UPYx2yWJ
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SS54lo3x1
「小子，你將來就會明白！」424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH12f7mP4CR
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYgbYuiAuE
我知道自己徹底輸了。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrz84WxjZon
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCijlrPlQoH
不單是敗予女巫，更是敗於自己。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zdAcDOGkP
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO423GUG8cM
我沒有自己想像的清高。424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4RobyRYp3
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEpEVH0BGV
所以……424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoRCDy3ybR
424Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAn4IEmKjC
對不起，安娜。
